NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCTING POLICIES | ' |
NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Description of Business | |
On May 16, 2011, the Company transferred, through a spin-off to its then wholly owned subsidiary, Worlds Online Inc., the majority of its operations and related operational assets. The Company retained its patent portfolio which it intends to continue to increase and to more aggressively enforce against alleged infringers. The Company also entered into a License Agreement with Worlds Online Inc. to sublicense its patented technologies. | |
Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"), which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has always been considered a developmental stage business, has incurred significant losses since its inception and has had minimal revenues from operations. The Company will require substantial additional funds for development and enforcement of its patent portfolio. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the substantial additional capital resources to pursue its business plan or that any assumptions relating to its business plan will prove to be accurate. The Company has not been able to generate sufficient revenue or obtain sufficient financing which has had a material adverse effect on the Company, including requiring the Company to reduce operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. For the past year the Company has been operating at a significantly reduced capacity, with only one full time employee, performing primarily consulting services and licensing software and using consultants to perform any additional work that may be required. | |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid money market instruments, which have original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. | |
Due from Related Party | |
Due from related party is comprised of cash payments made by Worlds Inc. on behalf of Worlds Online Inc. for shared operating expenses. | |
Revenue Recognition | |
Effective for the second quarter of 2011, the Company spun off its online businesses to Worlds Online Inc. The Company’s sources of revenue after the spin off will be from sublicenses of the patented technology by Worlds Online and any revenue that may be generated from enforcing its patents. Prior to the spin-off, the Company had the following sources of revenue: (1) consulting/licensing revenue from the performance of development work performed on behalf of the Company, licensing revenue or from the sale of certain software to third parties; and (2) VIP subscriptions to our Worlds Ultimate 3-D Chat service. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: evidence of an arrangement exists such as a signed contract, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonable assured. This will usually be in the form of a receipt of a customer’s acceptance indicating the product has been completed to their satisfaction except for development work and service revenue which is recognized when the services have been performed. Deferred revenue represents cash payments received in advance to be recorded as revenue when earned. The corresponding cost associated with those contracts is also deferred as deferred costs until the revenue is ultimately recognized. | |
Research and Development Costs | |
Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. | |
Property and Equipment | |
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the period incurred. | |
Impairment of Long Lived Assets | |
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with section 360-10-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Disclosure requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows. If so, it is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. The Company adopted the statement on inception. No impairments of these types of assets were recognized during 2013 and 2012. | |
Stock-Based Compensation | |
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method following the guidance set forth in section 718-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosure about Stock-Based Compensation. This section requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award- the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. | |
Income Taxes | |
The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. | |
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. | |
Notes Payable | |
The Company has $773,279 in short term notes outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012. The company has $225,000 in notes outstanding at December 31, 2013 and $0 at December 31, 2012. | |
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | |
The Company reports comprehensive income and its components following guidance set forth by section 220-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements. | |
Loss Per Share | |
Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB ASC. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. As of December 31, 2013, there were 8,600,000 options and 5,273,214 warrants whose effect is anti-dilutive and not included in diluted net loss per share for the December 31, 2013. The options and warrants may dilute future earnings per share. | |
Commitments and Contingencies | |
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. | |
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. | |
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows. | |
During 2000 the Company was involved in a lawsuit relating to unpaid consulting services. In April, 2001 a judgment against the Company was rendered for approximately $205,000. As of December 31, 2013, and 2012 the Company recorded a reserve of $205,000 for this lawsuit, which is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets. | |
Risk and Uncertainties | |
The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the technology industries, including, but not limited to, litigation, development of new technological innovations and dependence on key personnel. | |
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements | |
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. | |
Uncertain Tax Positions | |
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to unrecognized income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012. | |
Subsequent Events | |
A Federal District Court issued a ruling on March 13, 2014 on the Motion for Summary Judgment hearing that allows the company to proceed with its patent infringement suit against Activision Blizzard, Inc., Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. and Activision Publishing, Inc.'s (Activision). The MSJ hearing held October 17, 2013 addressed Activision's dispute of Worlds Inc.'s November 1995 patent priority date. The court did not dismiss the case as requested by Activision. The Court’s ruling does prevent the company from pursuing damages for the period prior to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's (USPTO) issuance of Certificates of Correction on September 24, 2013 that amended the Company’s 6219045 and 7181790 patents to include comprehensive priority information, which specifically references Worlds November 1995 provisional patent application and confirms Worlds 1995 priority date. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements up to ASU 2014-05, and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations. |

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERNS | ' |
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN | |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Since its inception, the Company has had periods where it had only minimal revenues from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional capital resources to fully implement its business plan or that any assumptions relating to its business plan will prove to be accurate. The Company is pursuing sources of additional financing and there can be no assurance that any such financing will be available to the Company on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Any inability to obtain additional financing will likely have a material adverse effect on the Company, including possibly requiring the Company to reduce and/or cease operations. | |
These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

We issued an aggregate of $2.4 million face amount of Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the “Notes”). The Notes are divided into Series A, Series B and Series C with the Series A and B Notes aggregating to $1.95 million and the Series C Notes aggregating to $450,000. The Series A and Series B Notes were exchanged by the return of the face amount of the Notes and for 7 million shares of common stock of the Company. The remaining Series C Note carries a 14% annual interest rate upon default and is payable on March 13, 2016. The Company has determined that the conversion feature of the Notes represent an embedded derivative since the Notes are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. The Notes are classified as a derivative liability and not a note payable, see Note 10 below. | |||||

On March 20, 2013 the Company entered into strategic financing agreements with several institutional investors that could provide the Company with up to $2.3 million of debt financing based upon the amount of conversions and redemptions. The transaction documents provide, among other things, that (i) the investors will receive five year warrants in an amount equal to 100% of the number of shares of our common stock the investors would receive if the Notes (defined below) were converted on March 13, 2013, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, (ii) $1.950 million of the funds will deposited in one of our bank accounts but will be subject to a control account agreement which will provide that the Company can only withdraw funds from the account as the investors convert or redeem the Notes, (iii) the investors have demand and piggy-back registration rights for the shares of common stock underlying the warrants and Notes, (iv) the Notes will be secured by a first priority security interest in all of our assets, other than our patents, (v) each investor may not convert any Note or exercise any warrants if doing so will cause the investor to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock at any time, although under certain circumstances they can each own up to 9.99% of our outstanding common stock, (vi) we paid $40,000 of the investors’ legal fees incurred with respect to this transaction, and (vii) for the next three years the investors have a right to participate in up to 50% of any of our future financings. The warrants and Notes contain standard anti-dilution provisions and the Securities Purchase Agreements contains standard covenants for a financing of this nature. In the event the Company acquires any subsidiaries while the Notes are outstanding, such subsidiaries will be obligated to guaranty the Notes and any other obligations we owe to the investors pursuant to the transaction documents. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
On July 15, 2013 we entered into Amendment and Exchange Agreements with each of the existing holders of our Series A, B and C Senior Secured Convertible Notes and related warrants to purchase our common stock, which securities were originally issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of March 14, 2013 (“Securities Purchase Agreement”), by and among us and such holders. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Each Exchange Agreement provides for, among other things, that: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(i) | Various restrictive provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Class C Senior Secured Convertible Notes were either eliminated by amendment or waived; | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(ii) | the related warrants, initially exercisable into an aggregate of 4,535,714 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $0.50, were exchanged for new warrants, initially exercisable into an aggregate of 4,535,714 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.00; and | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(iii) | the Series A and B Senior Secured Convertible Notes, with an aggregate original principal amount of $1,950,000, were exchanged for an aggregate of 7 million shares of our common stock and the payment by the Company to such holders of an aggregate of approximately $1,951,400 (the remaining cash amount held in a control account pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Series A and B Senior Secured Convertible Notes) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has determined that the conversion feature of the Note represent an embedded derivative since the Note is convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, the Note is not considered to be conventional debt under EITF 00-19 and the embedded conversion feature must be bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of this derivative instrument has been recorded as a liability on the balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the Note. Such discount will be accreted from the grant date to the maturity date of the Note. The change in the fair value of the derivative liability will be recorded in other income or expenses in the statement of operations at the end of each period, with the offset to the derivative liability on the balance sheet. The beneficial conversion feature included in the Note resulted in an initial debt discount of $450,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $96,119 based on the initial fair value of the derivative liability of $546,119. The fair value of the embedded derivative liability was calculated at grant date utilizing the following assumptions: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Grant Date | Fair Value | Term | Assumed Conversion Price | Market Price on Grant Date | Volatility Percentage | Risk-free | |||||||||||||||||||||
(Years) | Rate | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

At December 31, 2013, the Company revalued the embedded derivative liability. For the period from the grant date to December 31, 2013, the Company decreased the derivative liability of $546,119 by $116,823 resulting in a derivative liability of $429,296 at December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with both generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. | |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. | |

Revenue Recognition | ' |
Revenue Recognition | |
Effective for the second quarter of 2011, the Company spun off its online businesses to Worlds Online Inc. The Company’s sources of revenue after the spin off will be from sublicenses of the patented technology by Worlds Online and any revenue that may be generated from enforcing its patents. Prior to the spin-off, the Company had the following sources of revenue: (1) consulting/licensing revenue from the performance of development work performed on behalf of the Company, licensing revenue or from the sale of certain software to third parties; and (2) VIP subscriptions to our Worlds Ultimate 3-D Chat service. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: evidence of an arrangement exists such as a signed contract, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonable assured. This will usually be in the form of a receipt of a customer’s acceptance indicating the product has been completed to their satisfaction except for development work and service revenue which is recognized when the services have been performed. Deferred revenue represents cash payments received in advance to be recorded as revenue when earned. The corresponding cost associated with those contracts is also deferred as deferred costs until the revenue is ultimately recognized. | |

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the period incurred. | |
Impairment of Long Lived Assets | ' |
Impairment of Long Lived Assets | |
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with section 360-10-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Disclosure requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows. If so, it is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. The Company adopted the statement on inception. No impairments of these types of assets were recognized during 2013 and 2012. | |
Stock-Based Compensation | ' |
Stock-Based Compensation | |
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method following the guidance set forth in section 718-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosure about Stock-Based Compensation. This section requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award- the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. | |
Income Taxes | ' |
Income Taxes | |
The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. | |
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. | |

The Company reports comprehensive income and its components following guidance set forth by section 220-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements. | |
Loss Per Share | ' |
Loss Per Share | |
Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB ASC. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. As of December 31, 2013, there were 8,600,000 options and 5,273,214 warrants whose effect is anti-dilutive and not included in diluted net loss per share for the December 31, 2013. The options and warrants may dilute future earnings per share. | |
Commitments and Contingencies | ' |
Commitments and Contingencies | |
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. | |
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. | |
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows. | |
During 2000 the Company was involved in a lawsuit relating to unpaid consulting services. In April, 2001 a judgment against the Company was rendered for approximately $205,000. As of December 31, 2013, and 2012 the Company recorded a reserve of $205,000 for this lawsuit, which is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets. | |
