Organization and Description of Business [Abstract] | |
Organization and Description of Business | Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business Propel Media, Inc. (“Propel”), a Delaware corporation, is a diversified online advertising company. Propel generates revenues through the sale of advertising to advertisers who want to reach consumers in the United States and internationally to promote their products and services. Propel is a holding company for Propel Media LLC (“Propel Media”), a California limited liability company, Kitara Media Corp. (“Kitara”), a Delaware corporation, and DeepIntent Technologies, Inc. (“DeepIntent”), a Delaware corporation. Propel, Propel Media, Kitara, DeepIntent and their respective subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the “Company”. Propel delivers advertising via its real-time, bid-based, online advertising platform called Propel Media Platform. This technology platform allows advertisers to target users and deliver video, display and text based advertising. Propel and its Propel Media Platform provide advertisers with an effective way to serve, manage and maximize the performance of their online advertising purchasing. Propel offers both a self-serve platform and a managed services option that give advertisers diverse solutions to reach online users and acquire customers. Propel primarily serves its advertising to users who are part of its owned and operated member-based network or the member-based networks of its third-party application partners. Propel provides its user base with access to its premium content for free and obtains the users’ permission to serve advertising to them while they peruse content on the web. In the owned and operated model, advertising units are served directly to users through a browser extension or other software installed on the user’s computer. Under the third-party application model, Propel serves advertising through its partners who are providing a variety of applications free of charge and such partners receive permission from their users to serve ads to them. Propel’s offerings to its advertising customers will increasingly leverage DeepIntent’s integrated data and programmatic buying platform. This platform provides a data-driven approach to programmatic advertising that integrates into its data management platform traditional first-party data (such as client CRM data) and cookie-based third-party user data in order to build an enriched profile of a brand’s target audiences. Leveraging DeepIntent’s artificial intelligence tools, these profiles are supplemented with real-time consumer interest data using DeepIntent’s proprietary Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms. With a holistic view of each user’s interests and behaviors, DeepIntent’s demand side platform provides tools to accurately price the value of each user with respect to the goals of the advertiser while simultaneously providing brands with the confidence that their ads will appear in a “brand safe” environment. Additionally, this acquisition gives the Company the ability to offer its advertisers programmatic inventory across all screens, including desktop, mobile, tablet and connected TV. Propel also provides solutions to advertisers through its publisher business model with a channel of direct publishers, networks and exchanges. These supply channels expand the Company’s ability to serve advertising. In this model, the advertising units are served to users through a website, and the Company serves advertising units to the user in coordination with the publisher, network or exchange. |

Liquidity and Capital Resources [Abstract] | |
Liquidity and Capital Resources | Note 2 – Liquidity and Capital Resources As of June 30, 2018, the Company’s cash on hand was $3,425,000. The Company had a working capital deficit of $7,215,000 as of June 30, 2018. The Company recorded net income of $11,725,000 and $15,697,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The Company has historically met its liquidity requirements through operations. As further discussed in Note 6, on May 9, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment to the agreement with the Company’s former term loan lenders which resulted in a payment to the Lenders of $3,000,000 in full satisfaction of the $12,500,000 Deferred Fee obligation. Also, as further discussed in Note 6, on May 30, 2018, the Company entered into a new term loan and revolver with a maturity date of May 30, 2023 and in connection therewith, fully satisfied all obligations under the existing term loan and revolving loan. As of June 30, 2018, the revolving loan was fully drawn at $7,000,000. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $12,363,000 and were most significantly impacted by the refinancing of the term and revolving loans, consisting of net proceeds of $49,000,000 and $6,860,000 from the Company’s MGG Term Loan and MGG Revolving Loan, respectively. These proceeds were offset by $401,000 of cash refinancing costs, the payoff of $58,382,000 and $3,000,000 of the principal balance and Deferred Fee, respectively, under the former term loan. Furthermore, cash of $6,440,000 was used to satisfy a portion of the outstanding obligations to the Transferors (See Note 5). Pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Company is subject to a leverage ratio requirement as of the end of each calendar quarter. The Company was in compliance with such leverage ratio requirement as of June 30, 2018. The Company’s operating cash flows are currently heavily dependent upon being able to cost effectively acquire and maintain a base of user audience to whom the Company serves advertising from its customers. On June 12, 2018, Google announced policy changes that affect how developers of Chrome extensions, such as our company, can acquire users. These policy changes are being implemented in two phases. Effective as of June 12, 2018, all new Chrome extensions must be installed from the Chrome Web Store (“CWS”) rather than using the inline installation method which the Company currently utilizes and which allows the user to install the extension directly from the Company’s website landing pages. This means that a developer of Chrome extensions, such as our company, would be required to promote its content on the web and drive a new user to the CWS for the final installation of the extension instead of allowing the user to install the extension from the developer’s landing page promoting the extension. As of September 12, 2018, all existing Chrome extensions will similarly be required to be installed from the CWS and no inline installations will be allowed. This change has created uncertainty in the user acquisition install flow for developers of Chrome extensions, such as our company, and it is currently unclear how this change will affect the volume and cost to acquire users for the Company’s owned and operated properties. Since the announcement, the Company has been doing extensive testing of a variety of installation flows to acquire new users. The financial impact to the Company from these Google policy changes, if any, is still unknown. As a result, these policy changes could result in increased user acquisition costs, as well as challenges in maintaining user base levels sufficient to support demand by advertisers, which could result in lower revenues, lower margins and decreased profitability for the Company’s business. Based upon the Company’s current projections, including its best estimates of the impact of the Google policy changes discussed above, and its remediation and/or responses to such matters, management believes that the Company’s cash balances on hand and cash flows expected to be generated from operations and borrowings available under the Company’s Revolving Loan will be sufficient to fund the Company’s net cash requirements through August 2019. |

Business Acquisition | Note 3 – Business Acquisition Acquisition of DeepIntent On June 21, 2017 (“DeepIntent Closing Date”), pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (“DeepIntent Acquisition Agreement”) with the former stockholders of DeepIntent, Propel purchased 100% of the equity interests of DeepIntent, consisting of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock of DeepIntent. The purchase price, which is subject to an adjustment for working capital, consisted of $4,000,000 paid at closing, $500,000 paid on December 21, 2017 and, $500,000 paid on June 21, 2018 (collectively, the “DeepIntent Deferred Payments”). In addition, the sellers may earn up to an aggregate of $3,000,000 of additional consideration upon the achievement of certain performance levels during the years ending December 31, 2019 and 2020 (collectively, the “Earnouts”). Propel entered into employment agreements for the period from the DeepIntent Closing Date through December 31, 2020 and restrictive covenant agreements through June 20, 2021 with DeepIntent’s founders and former principal shareholders. Propel’s obligation to remit the DeepIntent Deferred Payments is contingent upon the continued employment of both of DeepIntent’s founders through the date that any such DeepIntent Deferred Payment is required to be made. The Company accounted for the acquisition of DeepIntent as a business combination. The contingent DeepIntent Deferred Payments are being accounted for as compensation for financial reporting purposes and are accreted ratably over the deferred period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, accretion of this DeepIntent Deferred Payment was $211,000 and $449,000, respectively, and is reflected within salaries, commissions, benefits and related expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of income. On June 21, 2018, the company fully paid its DeepIntent Deferred Payment obligation. The results of DeepIntent have been included within the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since June 21, 2017.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 4 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2018. Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2018 presentation. Use of Estimates The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the accounts receivable allowance, the forfeiture of customer deposits, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangibles, recognition of revenue, and the valuation of stock-based compensation. Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company, including its subsidiaries, is the United States dollar. The financial statements of subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. are measured in their functional currency, which is the local currency. The functional currency of DeepIntent India Private Ltd. is the Indian Rupee. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated using average monthly exchange rates. Non-monetary assets are translated at their historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. The Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $504,000 and $256,000, respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally, three years for computer equipment and purchased software, three to five years for furniture and equipment, the shorter of the useful life and the term of the lease for leasehold improvements. Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $469,000 and $368,000, respectively, and $865,000 and $764,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Intangible Assets The Company’s long-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. These assets were initially recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition and assets not acquired in acquisitions were recorded at historical cost. However, if their estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount, other intangible assets with indefinite life are reduced to their estimated fair value through an impairment charge to our condensed consolidated statements of income. Intangible Assets, continued Intangible assets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $1,069,000 and $1,201,000, respectively. Intangible assets at June 30, 2018 consisted of the DeepIntent intellectual property of $1,320,000 net of accumulated amortization of $271,000 and the Propel Media trade name at a cost of $20,000. Amortization expense was $66,000 and $8,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $132,000 and $8,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following is an annual schedule of approximate future amortization of the Company’s intangible assets: Years Ending December 31, Amount 2018 (six months) $ 132,000 2019 264,000 2020 264,000 2021 264,000 2022 125,000 $ 1,049,000 Capitalization of Internally Developed Software The Company capitalizes certain costs related to its software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage, including upgrades and enhancements representing modifications that will result in significant additional functionality, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life ranging from 12 months to 36 months. The Company evaluates these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. Based upon management’s assessment of capitalized software, the Company recorded impairment charges of $0 and $20,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to write off the book value of certain internally developed capitalized software. These impairment charges were included in the impairment of software and intangible assets within the condensed consolidated statements of income. Revenue Recognition Propel generates revenue from advertisers by serving their ads to a user base consisting of the Company’s owned and operated network, users of our third-party application partners’ properties and users from our publisher driven traffic, as well as from advertising sold through the Company’s demand-side platform. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) which was subsequently amended by ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016- 10, ASU 2016-12, and ASU 2017-13. These ASUs outline a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The guidance includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. A full retrospective or modified retrospective approach is required. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018. Pursuant to ASC 606, revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company satisfies performance obligations. Performance obligations are satisfied when an advertisement is served by the Company or when a user action occurs based on the advertisement the Company served (i.e., a view, a click, a conversion action, etc.). There is a specific transaction that triggers a billable instance for fulfilment of that performance obligation. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the serving of advertising. Contracts with advertising customers typically consist of insertion orders or other written contracts. Within the Company’s business model, customer orders are fulfilled at a point in time and not over a period of time. The Company has elected to apply the modified retrospective method and the impact was determined to be immaterial on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the new revenue standard has been applied prospectively in our condensed consolidated financial statements from January 1, 2018 forward and reported financial information for historical comparable periods will not be revised and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect during those historical periods. The Company has performed an analysis and identified its revenues and costs that are within the scope of the new guidance. The Company determined that its methods of recognizing revenues have not been significantly impacted by the new guidance. The amounts on deposit from customers are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by geographical region: For the Three Months ended June 30, For the Six Months ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Americas $ 19,587,000 $ 19,402,000 $ 39,860,000 $ 36,662,000 Europe 362,000 1,385,000 656,000 2,465,000 Middle East 285,000 717,000 629,000 997,000 Other 24,000 11,000 32,000 23,000 Total $ 20,258,000 $ 21,515,000 $ 41,177,000 $ 40,147,000 Cost of Revenues Costs of revenue consists of marketing expenses to obtain new users for the Company’s owned and operated properties, publisher costs of third-party networks and properties, transaction costs and revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners, as well as costs of advertising purchased through the Company’s demand-side platform. Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers The Company’s concentration of credit risk includes its concentrations from key customers and vendors. The details of these significant customers and vendors are presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017: For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 The Company’s largest customers are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate: Revenue None over 10% None over 10% None over 10% None over 10% Accounts receivable None over 10% 12% of accounts receivable from one customer None over 10% 12% of accounts receivable from one customer The Company’s largest vendors are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate: The Company’s largest vendors reported in cost of revenues are presented as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate cost of revenues 40% of cost of revenues from one vendor 18%, 17% and 10% of cost of revenues, or 45% of cost of revenues in the aggregate 41% and 11% of cost of revenues, or 52% of cost of revenues in the aggregate 21% and 20% of cost of revenues, or 41% of cost of revenues in the aggregate The Company’s largest vendors reported as a percentage of accounts payable 44% of accounts payable to one vendor 17% and 14% of accounts payable, or 31% of accounts payable in the aggregate 44% of accounts payable to one vendor 17% and 14% of accounts payable, or 31% of accounts payable in the aggregate Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company held cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. The Company extends credit to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales credits. Net Income (Loss) per Share Earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (17,661,875 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (21,230,000 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company, including its subsidiaries, is the United States dollar. The financial statements of subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. are measured in their functional currency, which is the local currency. The functional currency of the parent is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated using average monthly exchange rates. Non-monetary assets are translated at their historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent events The Company has evaluated events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2018 through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that other than as disclosed in Note 13, there were no subsequent events that required disclosure in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2016-02”), which requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor, and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosure, and anticipates the guidance to result in increases in its assets and liabilities as most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 “Intangibles-Goodwill and other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the Board eliminated Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The Board also eliminated the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2019. Based upon the Company’s preliminary assessment, the adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”). The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. An entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all of the following are met: The fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified and the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted ASU 2017-09 effective January 1, 2018 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2018-07”). The amendments in this Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply the requirements of Topic 718 to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2018-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. Based upon the Company’s preliminary assessment, the adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10 Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2018-10”), which contains amendments (related to Update 2016-02) to the Codification regarding leases. Fourteen areas of improvement where amendments were applied include the following: ● Residual Value Guarantees ● Rate implicit in the lease ● Lessee reassessment of lease classification ● Lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase option ● Variable lease payments that depend on index or a rate ● Investment tax credits ● Lease term and purchase option ● Transition guidance for amounts previously recognized in business combinations ● Certain transition adjustments ● Transition guidance for leases previously classified as capital leases under Topic 840 ● Transition guidance for modifications to leases previously classified as direct financing or sales-type leases under topic 840 ● Transition guidance for sale and lease back transactions ● Impairment of net investment in lease ● Unguaranteed residual asset ASU 2018-10 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial position and its results of operations. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11-Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2018-11”), which requires an entity to separate lease components from nonlease components (for example, maintenance services or other activities that transfer a good or service to the customer other than the right to use the underlying asset) in a contract. The lease components shall be accounted for in accordance with the new leases standard. An entity should account for the nonlease components in accordance with other Topics (for example, Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for lessors). The consideration in the contract is allocated to the lease and nonlease components on a relative standalone price basis (for lessees) or in accordance with the allocation guidance in the new revenue standard (for lessors). The new leases standard also provides lessees with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component. If a lessee makes that accounting policy election, it is required to account for the nonlease components together with the associated lease component as a single lease component and to provide certain disclosures. Lessors are not afforded a similar practical expedient. The amendments in this Update address stakeholders’ concerns about the requirement for lessors to separate components of a contract by providing lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component, similar to the expedient provided for lessees. However, the lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the nonlease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both (1) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the nonlease component(s) and associated lease component and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The amendments in this Update also clarify which Topic (Topic 842 or Topic 606) applies for the combined component. Specifically, if the nonlease component or components associated with the lease component are the predominant component of the combined component, an entity should account for the combined component in accordance with Topic 606. Otherwise, the entity should account for the combined component as an operating lease in accordance with Topic 842. An entity that elects the lessor practical expedient also should provide certain disclosures. ASU 2018-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial position and its results of operations. |

Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization [Abstract] | |
Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization | Note 5 – Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization The Transactions and Merger Agreement On January 28, 2015, Propel consummated the “reverse merger” (the “Reverse Merger” or the “Transactions”) as contemplated by (i) the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014, by and among Kitara, Propel, which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kitara, and Kitara Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Propel, and (ii) the Unit Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014 and amended as of December 23, 2014, April 29, 2015, January 26, 2016, May 9, 2018 and May 30, 2018, by and among Kitara, Propel, Propel Media and the former members of Propel Media (“Transferors”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, and as discussed in further detail below, the Company incurred deferred payment obligations to the Transferors, consisting of (i) $10,000,000 to the Transferors (“Deferred Obligation”) and (ii) $6,000,000 payable in cash immediately after the payment of certain fees to the Lenders on or about January 28, 2019 (the “Deferred Payment to Transferors”). The amendment to the Exchange Agreement dated May 30, 2018, provided that $5,000,000 of the Deferred Obligation shall be paid to such Transferors in cash on or prior to June 13, 2018 and that the remaining $5,000,000 of the Deferred Obligation shall be repaid in connection with an equity capital raise, which the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to complete prior to June 30, 2023 (the “Equity Financing Period”), out of the Company’s earnings, as permitted under the Facility (See Note 6), or out of the Company’s available working capital as determined by the Company’s board of directors in its sole discretion, provided any applicable consent of the Company’s lenders is obtained. On May 31, 2018, the Company satisfied this obligation with a $5,000,000 cash payment to the Transferors. Furthermore, with regard to the remaining $5,000,000 obligation, the Company’s board of directors, at least two times per year during the Equity Financing Period, is obligated to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, the amount, if any, of the Company’s working capital available to be used to pay all or a portion of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation in cash, taking into account such factors as it may deem relevant. If the Company’s board of directors determines that there is available working capital to pay all or a portion of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation, the Company must use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain any required lender consent and, if such consent is obtained, must promptly pay to the Transferors an amount in cash equal to such available working capital. Finally, Jared Pobre, one of the former members of Propel Media, on behalf of the Transferors, is permitted to elect, during the ten-day period following each December 31st during the Equity Financing Period, commencing December 31, 2016, to receive any unpaid amount of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation in shares of the Company’s common stock. For such issuance, each share of the Company’s common stock will be valued at the closing market price of the Company’s common stock as reported on NASDAQ or such other national securities exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock is listed (or if not so listed, the bid price on the OTC Pink Market) on the date on which such shares are issued to the Transferors (and if a closing price or bid price, as applicable, is not reported on such day, then the stock shall be valued at the last closing price or bid price, as applicable, reported). Pursuant to an amendment to the Exchange Agreement dated May 9, 2018, the Transferors and the lenders agreed that the Company could fully satisfy the obligation for the Deferred Payment to Transferors with a cash payment of $1,440,000. This cash payment of $1,440,000 was made on May 9, 2018, which fully satisfied the obligation for the Deferred Payment to Transferors. Of the Company’s liability, net of discount, to Transferors for the Deferred Payment to Transferors, in the amount of $5,581,000 as of May 9, 2018, $4,141,000 was forfeited by the Transferors and the amount of $1,440,000 was paid in cash to the Transferors. The full satisfaction of the Deferred Payment to the Transferors was accounted for as an extinguishment, and as such, the gain on extinguishment of $4,141,000 was credited to additional paid-in capital, representing an adjustment of the distribution to the Transferors, as former owners of the Company. The following represents the obligations to Transferors under the Exchange Agreement: As of June 30, 2018 December 31, Deferred Obligation $ 5,000,000 $ 10,000,000 Deferred Payment to Transferors - 6,000,000 Total, gross 5,000,000 16,000,000 Less: discount (132,000 ) (797,000 ) Total, net 4,868,000 15,203,000 Less: current portion - - Long-term portion $ 4,868,000 $ 15,203,000 As a result of the Transactions, immediately after the closing, the Transferors collectively owned 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, representing 61.7% of Propel’s outstanding common stock, and the former stockholders of Kitara owned the remaining 95,884,241 shares of Propel common stock, representing 38.3% of Propel’s outstanding common stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded discount amortization of $22,000 and $156,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded discount amortization of $53,000 and $308,000, respectively. The balance of unamortized discount was $132,000 as of June 30, 2018 and $797,000 as of December 31, 2017. |

Financing Agreements [Abstract] | |
Financing Agreements | Note 6 – Financing Agreements January 2015 Financing Agreement On January 28, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Reverse Merger, Propel, Kitara and Propel Media as “Borrowers” and certain of their subsidiaries as “Guarantors” entered into a financing agreement (“Financing Agreement”) with certain financial institutions as “Lenders.” The Financing Agreement provided the Borrowers with (a) a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 at any time outstanding (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Loans”). Pursuant to their terms, the Loans were originally scheduled to mature on January 28, 2019 (“Final Maturity Date”). As discussed below, the Loans were repaid and refinanced with new loans on May 30, 2018. The Financing Agreement provided for certain fees to be paid, including (i) a closing fee of $2,880,000 (“Closing Fee”) which was withheld from the proceeds of the Term Loan and was accounted for as an original issue discount and was amortized to interest expense using the interest method over the term of the Term Loan and (ii) a (“Deferred Fee”) of $12,500,000 which was due upon the fourth anniversary of the inception of the Term Loan, the obligation of which the Company has been accreting using the effective interest method as a finance charge over the term of the Loans. In addition, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $916,000 in connection with the Loans which has been accounted for as debt discount and was amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan. On May 9, 2018, the Company and the Lenders agreed to reduce to $3,000,000 the Deferred Fee and on May 9, 2018, the Company paid to the Lenders $3,000,000 in full satisfaction of the Deferred Fee obligation. The accreted obligation for the Deferred Fee was $10,438,000 as of May 9, 2018. Please see explanation and table below showing the components of the gain on extinguishment. Also, on May 9, 2018, the Company made a voluntary principal prepayment of the Term Loan in the amount of $2,000,000. Accounting Analysis of the Reduction of the Deferred Fee The obligation for the Deferred Fee was considered a component of the original obligation under the terms of the January 2015 Financing Agreement. As such, upon the Final Maturity Date, the Company would be obligated to the remit to the Lenders the sum of the remaining outstanding principal on the Term Loan, along with the full amount of Deferred Fee. As of May 9, 2018, the Company evaluated the discounted cash flows under the terms of the obligations for the Term Loan, both before and after the effect of the reduction in the Deferred Fee in order to determine whether this change should be accounted for as a loan extinguishment (deemed repayment of the original loan and entering into a new modified loan) or as a modification (for which the new terms would be accounted for prospectively). The Company determined that the transaction was an extinguishment, since the difference between the discounted cash flows of approximately $8,173,000 exceeded 10%. Accordingly, pursuant to the guidance for extinguishment accounting, the Company deemed the existing term loan to have been fully extinguished and then to have entered into a new loan for the remaining contractual term. For purposes of the analysis, the $2,000,000 decrease in principal and the $3,000,000 payment of the Deferred Fee were reflected as a day-one cash outflows for the deemed new debt in the 10% test. Upon recording the extinguishment, the unamortized Closing Fee and debt issuance costs, as well as the accreted Deferred Fee were expensed. Debt extinguishment The components of the gain on extinguishment of $6,861,000 are presented below: Original Terms Amended Terms Gain on Extinguishment Remaining term loan payments $ 53,160,000 $ 53,160,000 $ - Deferred fee 10,438,000 3,000,000 7,438,000 Closing fee (440,000 ) - (440,000 ) Debt issuance costs (137,000 ) - (137,000 ) Total $ 63,021,000 $ 56,160,000 $ 6,861,000 The Company recorded amortization through the extinguishment date of the closing fee as interest expense of $67,000 and $175,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $228,000 and $352,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recorded as interest expense through the extinguishment date accretion of the Deferred Fee of $310,000 and $767,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $1,038,000 and $1,536,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recorded as interest expense amortization of the debt issuance costs through the extinguishment date of $21,000 and $55,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $72,000 and $112,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. May 2018 MGG Term and Revolving Loans On May 30, 2018, the Company entered into a new senior secured credit facility (the “Facility”) with certain affiliates of MGG Investment Group, LP (“MGG”). The Facility provides for a senior secured term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 (the “MGG Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $7,000,000 at any time outstanding (the “MGG Revolver”). In connection with the closing of the Facility, the Company terminated all outstanding commitments and paid all outstanding loans under that certain Financing Agreement dated as of January 28, 2015. Upon the closing of the Facility, the MGG Term Loan, in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 was borrowed in full and $7,000,000 was also borrowed in full under the MGG Revolving Loan. The proceeds of the Loans were used (i) to repay existing debt under the Existing Financing Agreement, (ii) to pay fees and expenses related to the Facility and the transactions contemplated therein, (iii) to pay $5,000,000 to the Transferors (as defined below) and (iv) for general working capital purposes. The Facility matures five years from the closing date. The Company may borrow, repay, and re-borrow the Revolver prior to maturity, subject to the terms, provisions, and limitations set forth in the Facility. The Company’s obligations under the Facility are secured by first priority security interests granted to MGG on substantially all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets. The Facility provides for certain fees to be paid, including (i) a closing fee of $1,000,000 (“MGG Closing Fee”) which was withheld from the proceeds of the MGG Term Loan and was accounted for as an original issue discount and is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan and (ii) a closing fee of $140,000 which was withheld from the proceeds of the MGG Revolving Loan and was accounted for as deferred financing costs and is presented within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The closing fee for the MGG Revolving Loan is being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the MGG Revolving Loan. In addition, the Company incurred legal, accounting, and other fees, attributable to the (i) MGG Term Loan of $352,000 which were accounted for as debt discount and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan and (ii) MGG Revolving Loan of approximately $49,000 which were accounted for as deferred financing costs and are presented within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. These fees and expenses are being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the term of the MGG Revolving Loan. The Company recorded amortization of the MGG closing Fee as interest expense under the MGG Term Loan and MGG Revolving Loan of $24,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The balance of the MGG Closing Fee attributable to the MGG Term Loan and accounted for as original issue discount was $978,000 as of June 30, 2018, and is reflected within the Term Loan obligations on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The balance of the MGG Closing Fee attributable to the MGG Revolving Loan and accounted for as deferred financing cost was $138,000 as of June 30, 2018. The Company recorded as interest expense amortization of deferred financing costs under the MGG Term Loan and MGG Revolving Loan of $9,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. The balance of the deferred financing costs charged to debt discount and presented within Term Loan obligations and deferred financing costs presented within other assets, were $344,000 and $48,000, respectively, within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018. The Facility and related loan documents contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, create certain liens, make certain types of borrowings, engage in certain mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, or asset sales, make capital expenditures, enter into affiliate transactions, pay dividends or other distributions, and make certain payments affecting subsidiaries. The covenants require the Company to maintain a Total Leverage Ratio as of each calendar quarter end. Total Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of certain debt on such date to Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing 12-month period. Under this covenant, the Company is required to maintain a total leverage ratio of no more than 2.25:1.00 as of June 30, 2018. The Company’s total leverage ratio as of such date was 1.57:1.00. The total leverage ratio that the Company must maintain remains at 2.25:1.00 through March 31, 2019, decreasing to 2.00:1.00 as of June 30, 2019 and remains at 2.00:1.00 for each quarter thereafter. The Facility also provides that the Company is subject to annual mandatory prepayments apart from the scheduled quarterly principal payments based on the Company’s excess cash flow. Commencing December 31, 2018, the Company shall prepay 75% of its excess cash flow during that fiscal year (and decreases to 50% of excess cash flow when the leverage ratio is less than 1.25:1.00. The Facility provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, if a change of control of the Company occurs. The maturity of the Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default. The outstanding principal amount of the MGG Term Loan shall be repayable in consecutive quarterly installments of $1,250,000 on the last day of each March June, September, and December commencing on September 30, 2018. The remainder of the MGG Term Loan is due and payable on the maturity date, except in certain limited circumstances. Subject to the terms of the Facility, the MGG Term Loan or any portion thereof shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) rate (but not less than 1% or more than 5%) for the interest period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion thereof) plus 9.00%.

Related-Party Transactions | Note 7 – Related-Party Transactions The Company has outsourced technology development services and other administrative services to a technology company in Eastern Europe (“Technology Vendor”). The Technology Vendor is owned by an individual who is affiliated with a trust, which is a shareholder of the Company. The technology development services and other administrative services provided to the Company by the Technology Vendor during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, totaled $1,253,000 and $886,000, respectively, and $2,644,000 and $1,745,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These amounts were included in property and equipment and operating expenses, as applicable, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of operations. Certain of the costs incurred for the technology development services described above were for the development of internal-use software, which were capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life. In addition, the Company had amounts due to this entity of $327,000 and $8,000 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, which are reported within accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Commitments and Contingencies | Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies Employment Agreements On June 21, 2018, the Company entered into new employment agreements with each of Marv Tseu, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and David Shapiro, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, and, on June 22, 2018, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Daniela Nabors, the Company’s Chief Revenue Officer (each an “Executive” and together, the “Executives” and as to all or each Executive, the “Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreements are effective as of April 1, 2018. Each of the Employment Agreements is for a term of three years. The Employment Agreements provide for a base salary and an annual performance bonus, with annual target amounts determined pursuant to the Cash Bonus Plan (see Note 12) as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Executives also are eligible to receive long-term incentive awards from the Company, as well as salary and bonus compensation, and continued health care coverage, upon termination, under certain circumstances. With respect to these agreements, at June 30, 2018, aggregated annual base salaries would be $1,600,000. Each of the Employment Agreements restricts the Executive from disclosing confidential information concerning the business of the Company. Operating leases Rent expense totaled $130,000 and $106,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $261,000 and $212,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following is a schedule of approximate future minimum rental payments required under the Company’s current and expiring lease agreement and its new lease agreement (the reduced amount in 2019 is due to the effect of the nine-month deferral for the start of rent payments under the November 2017 lease): Years Ending December 31, Amount 2018 (six months) $ 162,000 2019 268,000 2020 651,000 2021 670,000 Thereafter 3,665,000 $ 5,416,000 Litigation From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Other than as set forth below, at June 30, 2018, there were no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company was a party or to which any of its property was subject that were expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on us. In December 2013, an action entitled Intrepid Investments, LLC (“Intrepid”) v. Selling Source, LLC (“Selling Source”), et al., Index No. 65429/2013 was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. This is an action commenced by Intrepid against Selling Source and a number of other defendants, including Kitara Media LLC (“Kitara Media”), one of the Company’s subsidiaries, to collect on a Junior Secured Promissory Note signed by Selling Source in the original principal sum of $28,700,000 (the “Note”). Kitara Media was a subsidiary of Selling Source at the time the Note was issued. Kitara Media is not a signatory to the Note, but like all of the subsidiaries of Selling Source at such time, on August 31, 2010 Kitara Media pledged all of its assets as collateral for all of the indebtedness of Selling Source, including the Note, which is the most junior obligation in Selling Source’s capital structure. In connection with the merger of Kitara Media into a subsidiary of Kitara, with Kitara Media surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Kitara, the senior lenders of Selling Source exercised their authority to release all liens on the assets of Kitara Media, including the liens associated with the Note. In the action, Intrepid seeks to foreclose on the security interest. Both Selling Source’s and Kitara Media’s obligations to Intrepid under the Note and Security Agreement were subordinate to obligations Selling Source had to two groups of prior lenders (“Senior Lenders”). The right of Intrepid to compel payments under the Note and/or foreclose the lien created by the Security Agreement was subject to an Intercreditor Agreement by and between the Senior Lenders and Intrepid. Under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Intrepid could not take steps to compel Selling Source to make payment on the Note or foreclose the Security Agreement so long as the obligations to the Senior Lenders remained outstanding. In addition, under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Senior Lenders had the right to have the lien released on any of the collateral pledged as security under the Security Agreement. In the New York action, Intrepid has challenged the Senior Lenders’ authority to release the lien and also challenged the enforceability of the Intercreditor Agreement generally. The Court has not yet ruled on the merits of that challenge, but discovery on this lawsuit has been completed and, Intrepid and the defendants are expected to complete briefing on cross-motions for summary judgment August 13, 2018. In addition, Selling Source’s obligations to the Senior Lenders remains outstanding. The second matter is Intrepid Investments, LLC v. Selling Source, LLC et al., Index No. 654309/2013, which was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. This matter was originally limited to claims asserted by Intrepid against Selling Source regarding an earn-out calculation entered into between it and Selling Source, and confirmed by an arbitrator earlier in 2017. In August, 2014, Intrepid amended its complaint to include various breach of contractor claims against a variety of those defendants, including Kitara. The new defendants, including Kitara, answered the amended complaint on November 7, 2014, denying liability for all claims. On February 19, 2015, the Court entered an order granting Selling Source’s motion to affirm the arbitration results. On March 3, 2015, Selling Source filed a motion for partial summary judgment seeking dismissal of eleven of Intrepid’s remaining claims, and, in September 2015, the New York Supreme Court granted this motion for summary judgment. The claims asserted against Kitara were not among those addressed in Selling Source’s motion. For the claims remaining, the parties have exchanged pleadings and Selling Source has provided documents and written interrogatory responses to Intrepid. Based on these facts, Propel believes Intrepid’s claims are without merit and intends to defend them vigorously. In any event, Selling Source has acknowledged an obligation to indemnify and defend Kitara Media from any liability to Intrepid arising out of the Note and Security Agreement. Selling Source owns 22.5 million shares of the common stock of Propel and our Chairman of the board of directors is also a director of Selling Source. |

Defined Contributions Plans [Abstract] | |
Defined Contributions Plans | Note 9 - Defined Contributions Plans The Company maintains a defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Plan”). Participating employees may defer a percentage of their eligible pre-tax earnings up to the Internal Revenue Service’s annual contribution limit. All full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan does not permit investment of participant contributions in the Company’s common stock. The Company’s matching contributions to the Plan are discretionary. The Company recorded contribution expense of $65,000 and $76,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $146,000 and $149,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which is recorded in salaries, commissions, benefits and related expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. |

Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Note 10 – Income Taxes The Company’s income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and, if the Company’s estimated tax rate changes, it makes a cumulative adjustment in that period. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was 15.7% and 36.9%, respectively, resulting in $2,921,000 and $3,364,000 income tax expense, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is lower than the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This lower 2018 effective income tax rate was attributable principally to the U.S Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which was enacted on December 22, 2017, among other things, reduced the US statutory corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018. In addition, as discussed further in Note 5, the Company recognized an additional deferred tax asset from the step up in basis recognized as a result of making further distributions to the Transferors, resulting in the recognition of a tax benefit of $1,462,000 being recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. On December 22, 2017, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) was issued to address the application of US GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act. As we collect and prepare necessary data and interpret the Tax Act and any additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the IRS, and other standard-setting bodies, we may make adjustments to the provisional amounts. Those adjustments may materially impact our provision for income taxes and effective tax rate in the period in which the adjustments are made. The accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act will be completed in 2018. |

Stock-Based Compensation | Note 11 - Stock-Based Compensation Equity Incentive Plans 2014 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan On October 9, 2014, Propel and its then sole stockholder approved the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2014 Plan”), pursuant to which a total of nine percent of the fully-diluted shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the closing of the Transactions (or 26,172,326 shares) became available for awards under the plan upon such closing. Kitara’s stockholders approved the plan as of January 26, 2015. 2012 and 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plans On May 14, 2012 and December 3, 2013, Kitara adopted the 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (“2012 Plan”) and the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (“2013 Plan”), respectively. The 2012 Plan and 2013 Plan provide for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based awards to, among others, the officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company. Effective January 28, 2015, Propel assumed the 2012 Plan and 2013 Plan, and all outstanding stock options thereunder. Propel amended the plans so that no further awards may be issued under such plans after the closing of the Reverse Merger. Stock Option Award Activity The following table is a summary of stock option awards: Number of Options Weighted Weighted Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Aggregate Outstanding at December 31, 2017 20,490,000 $ 0.49 $ 0.27 5.69 $ - Granted - - - - - Exercised - - - - Forfeited, expired or canceled 2,828,125 0.21 0.14 - Outstanding at June 30, 2018 17,661,875 $ 0.53 $ 0.29 5.94 $ - Exercisable at June 30, 2018 14,734,382 $ 0.52 $ 0.28 5.76 $ - The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the weighted average exercise price of the underlying outstanding stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock, based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the OTC Pink Market on June 30, 2018. The Black-Scholes method option pricing model was used to estimate the fair value of the option awards using the following range of assumptions. The simplified method was used to determine the expected life of grants to employees, as these granted options were determined to be “plain-vanilla” options. The full term was used for the expected life for options granted to consultants. The fair value of stock options is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the respective awards. Stock based compensation expense related to stock options was $241,000 and $227,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $488,000 and $456,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The expense was reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2018, the unamortized value of options was $655,000. As of June 30, 2018, the unamortized portion will be expensed through November 2019 and the weighted average remaining amortization period was 0.6 years. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2018. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2018 presentation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the accounts receivable allowance, the forfeiture of customer deposits, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, valuation of goodwill and intangibles, recognition of revenue, and the valuation of stock-based compensation. |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation The reporting currency of the Company, including its subsidiaries, is the United States dollar. The financial statements of subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. are measured in their functional currency, which is the local currency. The functional currency of DeepIntent India Private Ltd. is the Indian Rupee. Monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated using average monthly exchange rates. Non-monetary assets are translated at their historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. The Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $504,000 and $256,000, respectively. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally, three years for computer equipment and purchased software, three to five years for furniture and equipment, the shorter of the useful life and the term of the lease for leasehold improvements. Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $469,000 and $368,000, respectively, and $865,000 and $764,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets The Company’s long-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. These assets were initially recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition and assets not acquired in acquisitions were recorded at historical cost. However, if their estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount, other intangible assets with indefinite life are reduced to their estimated fair value through an impairment charge to our condensed consolidated statements of income. Intangible assets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $1,069,000 and $1,201,000, respectively. Intangible assets at June 30, 2018 consisted of the DeepIntent intellectual property of $1,320,000 net of accumulated amortization of $271,000 and the Propel Media trade name at a cost of $20,000. Amortization expense was $66,000 and $8,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $132,000 and $8,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following is an annual schedule of approximate future amortization of the Company’s intangible assets: Years Ending December 31, Amount 2018 (six months) $ 132,000 2019 264,000 2020 264,000 2021 264,000 2022 125,000 $ 1,049,000 |
Capitalization of Internally Developed Software | Capitalization of Internally Developed Software The Company capitalizes certain costs related to its software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage, including upgrades and enhancements representing modifications that will result in significant additional functionality, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life ranging from 12 months to 36 months. The Company evaluates these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. Based upon management’s assessment of capitalized software, the Company recorded impairment charges of $0 and $20,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to write off the book value of certain internally developed capitalized software. These impairment charges were included in the impairment of software and intangible assets within the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Propel generates revenue from advertisers by serving their ads to a user base consisting of the Company’s owned and operated network, users of our third-party application partners’ properties and users from our publisher driven traffic, as well as from advertising sold through the Company’s demand-side platform.

These ASUs outline a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The guidance includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. A full retrospective or modified retrospective approach is required. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018. Pursuant to ASC 606, revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company satisfies performance obligations. Performance obligations are satisfied when an advertisement is served by the Company or when a user action occurs based on the advertisement the Company served (i.e., a view, a click, a conversion action, etc.). There is a specific transaction that triggers a billable instance for fulfilment of that performance obligation. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the serving of advertising. Contracts with advertising customers typically consist of insertion orders or other written contracts. Within the Company’s business model, customer orders are fulfilled at a point in time and not over a period of time. The Company has elected to apply the modified retrospective method and the impact was determined to be immaterial on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the new revenue standard has been applied prospectively in our condensed consolidated financial statements from January 1, 2018 forward and reported financial information for historical comparable periods will not be revised and will continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect during those historical periods. The Company has performed an analysis and identified its revenues and costs that are within the scope of the new guidance. The Company determined that its methods of recognizing revenues have not been significantly impacted by the new guidance. The amounts on deposit from customers are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by geographical region: For the Three Months ended June 30, For the Six Months ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Americas $ 19,587,000 $ 19,402,000 $ 39,860,000 $ 36,662,000 Europe 362,000 1,385,000 656,000 2,465,000 Middle East 285,000 717,000 629,000 997,000 Other 24,000 11,000 32,000 23,000 Total $ 20,258,000 $ 21,515,000 $ 41,177,000 $ 40,147,000 |
Cost of Revenues | Cost of Revenues Costs of revenue consists of marketing expenses to obtain new users for the Company’s owned and operated properties, publisher costs of third-party networks and properties, transaction costs and revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners, as well as costs of advertising purchased through the Company’s demand-side platform. |
Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers | Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers The Company’s concentration of credit risk includes its concentrations from key customers and vendors. The details of these significant customers and vendors are presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017: For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 The Company’s largest customers are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate: Revenue None over 10% None over 10% None over 10% None over 10% Accounts receivable None over 10% 12% of accounts receivable from one customer None over 10% 12% of accounts receivable from one customer The Company’s largest vendors are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate: The Company’s largest vendors reported in cost of revenues are presented as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate cost of revenues 40% of cost of revenues from one vendor 18%, 17% and 10% of cost of revenues, or 45% of cost of revenues in the aggregate 41% and 11% of cost of revenues, or 52% of cost of revenues in the aggregate 21% and 20% of cost of revenues, or 41% of cost of revenues in the aggregate The Company’s largest vendors reported as a percentage of accounts payable 44% of accounts payable to one vendor 17% and 14% of accounts payable, or 31% of accounts payable in the aggregate 44% of accounts payable to one vendor 17% and 14% of accounts payable, or 31% of accounts payable in the aggregate Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company held cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. The Company extends credit to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales credits. |
Net Income (Loss) per Share | Net Income (Loss) per Share Earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (17,661,875 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (21,230,000 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. |
Subsequent events | Subsequent events The Company has evaluated events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2018 through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that other than as disclosed in Note 13, there were no subsequent events that required disclosure in these condensed consolidated financial statements. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2016-02”), which requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor, and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosure, and anticipates the guidance to result in increases in its assets and liabilities as most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 “Intangibles-Goodwill and other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the Board eliminated Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The Board also eliminated the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2019. Based upon the Company’s preliminary assessment, the adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”). The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. An entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all of the following are met: The fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified and the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted ASU 2017-09 effective January 1, 2018 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2018-07”). The amendments in this Update expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply the requirements of Topic 718 to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2018-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. Based upon the Company’s preliminary assessment, the adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or its results of operations. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10 Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2018-10”), which contains amendments (related to Update 2016-02) to the Codification regarding leases. Fourteen areas of improvement where amendments were applied include the following: ● Residual Value Guarantees ● Rate implicit in the lease ● Lessee reassessment of lease classification ● Lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase option ● Variable lease payments that depend on index or a rate ● Investment tax credits ● Lease term and purchase option ● Transition guidance for amounts previously recognized in business combinations ● Certain transition adjustments ● Transition guidance for leases previously classified as capital leases under Topic 840 ● Transition guidance for modifications to leases previously classified as direct financing or sales-type leases under topic 840 ● Transition guidance for sale and lease back transactions ● Impairment of net investment in lease ● Unguaranteed residual asset ASU 2018-10 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial position and its results of operations. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11-Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU-2018-11”), which requires an entity to separate lease components from nonlease components (for example, maintenance services or other activities that transfer a good or service to the customer other than the right to use the underlying asset) in a contract. The lease components shall be accounted for in accordance with the new leases standard. An entity should account for the nonlease components in accordance with other Topics (for example, Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for lessors). The consideration in the contract is allocated to the lease and nonlease components on a relative standalone price basis (for lessees) or in accordance with the allocation guidance in the new revenue standard (for lessors). The new leases standard also provides lessees with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component. If a lessee makes that accounting policy election, it is required to account for the nonlease components together with the associated lease component as a single lease component and to provide certain disclosures. Lessors are not afforded a similar practical expedient. The amendments in this Update address stakeholders’ concerns about the requirement for lessors to separate components of a contract by providing lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component, similar to the expedient provided for lessees. However, the lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the nonlease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both (1) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the nonlease component(s) and associated lease component and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The amendments in this Update also clarify which Topic (Topic 842 or Topic 606) applies for the combined component. Specifically, if the nonlease component or components associated with the lease component are the predominant component of the combined component, an entity should account for the combined component in accordance with Topic 606. Otherwise, the entity should account for the combined component as an operating lease in accordance with Topic 842. An entity that elects the lessor practical expedient also should provide certain disclosures. ASU 2018-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial position and its results of operations. |

This cash payment of $1,440,000 was made on May 9, 2018, which fully satisfied the obligation for the Deferred Payment to Transferors. Of the Company’s liability, net of discount, to Transferors for the Deferred Payment to Transferors, in the amount of $5,581,000 as of May 9, 2018, $4,141,000 was forfeited by the Transferors and the amount of $1,440,000 was paid in cash to the Transferors. The full satisfaction of the Deferred Payment to the Transferors was accounted for as an extinguishment, and as such, the gain on extinguishment of $4,141,000 was credited to additional paid-in capital, representing an adjustment of the distribution to the Transferors, as former owners of the Company. | ||||||

Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization (Textual) | |||||||
Business combination description | The Company incurred deferred payment obligations to the Transferors, consisting of (i) $10,000,000 to the Transferors (“Deferred Obligation”) and (ii) $6,000,000 payable in cash immediately after the payment of certain fees to the Lenders on or about January 28, 2019 (the “Deferred Payment to Transferors”). | ||||||
Deferred payment, description | The amendment to the Exchange Agreement dated May 30, 2018, provided that $5,000,000 of the Deferred Obligation shall be paid to such Transferors in cash on or prior to June 13, 2018 and that the remaining $5,000,000 of the Deferred Obligation shall be repaid in connection with an equity capital raise, which the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to complete prior to June 30, 2023 (the “Equity Financing Period”), out of the Company’s earnings, as permitted under the Facility (See Note 6), or out of the Company’s available working capital as determined by the Company’s board of directors in its sole discretion, provided any applicable consent of the Company’s lenders is obtained. On May 31, 2018, the Company satisfied this obligation with a $5,000,000 cash payment to the Transferors. Furthermore, with regard to the remaining $5,000,000 obligation, the Company’s board of directors, at least two times per year during the Equity Financing Period, is obligated to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, the amount, if any, of the Company’s working capital available to be used to pay all or a portion of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation in cash, taking into account such factors as it may deem relevant. If the Company’s board of directors determines that there is available working capital to pay all or a portion of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation, the Company must use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain any required lender consent and, if such consent is obtained, must promptly pay to the Transferors an amount in cash equal to such available working capital. Finally, Jared Pobre, one of the former members of Propel Media, on behalf of the Transferors, is permitted to elect, during the ten-day period following each December 31st during the Equity Financing Period, commencing December 31, 2016, to receive any unpaid amount of the $5,000,000 Deferred Obligation in shares of the Company’s common stock. | ||||||
