Kiwibox.Com, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Financial Statements
| 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Nature of Organization
Kiwibox.Com, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on April 19, 1988 under the name Fortunistics, Inc. On November 18, 1998, the Company changed its name to Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. On December 31, 2009, the Company changed its name to Kiwibox.com, Inc.
On August 16, 2007 the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Kiwibox Media, Inc.
The Company, Magnitude, Inc. and Kiwibox Media Inc. were separate legal entities until December 31, 2009, with Kiwibox Media, Inc. being a wholly owned subsidiary. On December 31, 2009, the two subsidiaries, Magnitude, Inc. and Kiwibox Media, Inc. merged into the Company.
On September 30, 2011, Kiwibox.com acquired the German based social network Kwick! Community GmbH & Co. KG (“Kwick”), a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company accounts for cash and other highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and as of December 31, 2012 include the accounts of Kiwibox.com, Inc. and its subsidiary, KWICK! Community GmbH & Co. KG.. Any significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Depreciation and Amortization
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation on equipment, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of such assets between 3-10 years, or lease term for leasehold improvements, if for a shorter period. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the weighted average exchange rates prevailing during each period presented. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations. Gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of our foreign subsidiary operating in a non-hyperinflationary economy are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until either sale or upon complete or substantially complete liquidation by the Company of its investment in the foreign entity. Foreign currency translation gain (loss) was $(163,479) and $(100,702) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Accumulated gain or (loss) on foreign currency translation adjustment was $(210,049) through June 30, 2013.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expense was $11,728 and $53,675 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $3,222 and $8,674 for the same periods in 2012, respectively.
Evaluation of Long Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are assessed for recoverability on an ongoing basis. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of long-lived assets, their carrying value would be reduced by the excess, if any, of the long-lived asset over management’s estimate of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related long-lived asset.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which is effective forfiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. UnderASC 820, a framework was establishedfor measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.The Company accounted for certain convertible debentures issued in the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013 as derivative liabilities required to be bifurcated from the host contract in accordance with ASC 815-40,Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares (see Note 12).
Securities Issued for Services
The Company accounts for stock, stock options and stock warrants issued for services and compensation by employees under the fair value method. For non-employees, the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of stock issuance or option/grant is used. The Company has determined the fair market value of the warrants/options issued under the Black-Scholes Pricing Model. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).
Reclassification of certain securities under ASC 815-15
Pursuant to ASC 815-15, “Contracts in Entity’s own Equity”, if a company has more than one contract subject to this Issue, and partial reclassification is required, there may be different methods that could be used to determine which contracts, or portions of contracts, should be reclassified. The Company's method for reclassification of such contracts is reclassification of contracts with the latest maturity date first.

Capitalization of Software /Website development costs
The Company capitalizes outside-contracted development work in accordance with the guidelines published under ASC 350-50, “Website Development Costs”. Under ASC 350-50, costs incurred during the planning stage areexpensed, whilecosts relating to software used to operate a web site or for developing initial graphics should be accounted for under ASC 350-50,Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, unless a plan exists or is being developed to market the software externally. Under ASC 350-50, internal and external costs incurred to develop internal-use computer software during the application development stage should be capitalized. Costs to develop or obtain software that allows for access or conversion of old data by new systems should also be capitalized, excluding training costs.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles- Goodwill or Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Living Tangible Assets for Impairment. ASU 2012-02 simplifies the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill by allowing an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is "more likely than not" that the asset is impaired. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 did not have a material impact on our results of operations or our financial position.
Fees incurred for web site hosting, which involve the payment of a specified, periodic fee to an Internet service provider in return for hosting the web site on its server(s) connected to the Internet, are expensed over the period of benefit, and included in cost of sales in the accompanying financial statements.
A total of $0 and $10,327 was capitalized for web-site development work during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes based on enacted tax law and statutory tax rates at which items of income and expenses are expected to be settled in the Company’s income tax return. Certain items of revenue and expense are reported for Federal income tax purposes in different periods than for financial reporting purposes, thereby resulting in deferred income taxes. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company has incurred net operating losses for financial-reporting and tax-reporting purposes. Accordingly, for Federal and state income tax purposes, the benefit for income taxes has been offset entirely by a valuation allowance against the related federal and state deferred tax asset. .
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Common Stock equivalents have not been included in this computation since the effect would be anti-dilutive. Such common stock equivalents totaled 214,478,411 common shares at June 30, 2013, comprised of 55,940,000 shares issuable upon exercise of stock purchase warrants, 5,500,000 shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, 729,537 shares exercisable upon conversion of convertible preferred shares, and 152,308,874 shares potentially issuable upon conversion of convertible debt. Such debt and the related accrued interest, convertible at the option of four debt holders at a price of 50% of the average closing price for the preceding 10 days, and another holder at $0.025 per share subject to reset, represent totals which would yield in excess of 3.1 billion shares if fully converted at June 30, 2013, however, the respective notes, all of which were issued to these investors, carry a stipulation whereby the number of all shares issued pursuant to a conversion, may in the aggregate not exceed a number that would increase the total share holdings beneficially owned by such investor to a level above 9.99%. At the end of the year, this clause limits any conversion to the aforementioned number of shares. All of the aforementioned conversions or exercises, as the case may be, are at the option of the holders.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is derived from advertising on the Kiwibox.Com website. Most contracts require the Company to deliver the customer impressions, click-throughs or new customers, or some combination thereof. Accordingly, advertising revenue is estimated and recognized for the period in which customer impressions, click through or new customers are delivered. Licensing or hosting revenue consists of an annual contract with clients to provide web-site hosting and assistance.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 those estimates.
| 2. | GOING CONCERN |
The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and financing. Our revenues during the foreseeable future are insufficient to finance our business and we are entirely dependent on the willingness of existing investors to continue supporting the Company with working capital loans and equity investments, and our ability to find new investors should the financial support from existing investors prove to be insufficient. If we were unable to obtain a steady flow of new debt or equity-based working capital we would be forced to cease operations. In their report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, our auditors had expressed an opinion that, as a result of the losses incurred, there was substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans are to continue seeking equity and debt capital until cash flow from operations cover funding needs.

| 12. | DERIVATIVE CONVERSION FEATURES (CONTINUED) |
On February 28, 2012 the Company signed a convertible note with Michael Pisani. This is a 1 year note that is convertible at $0.025 per share in the amount of $50,000. In the event that any portion of any outstanding Company promissory note, preferred share, warrant or stock option held of record by a non-affiliate of the Company is converted, exercised or exchanged for common shares of the Company at a conversion price or conversion rate less than $0.025 per one (1) common share anytime any part of the outstanding principal amount of this note is outstanding, the conversion rate of this note shall automatically be adjusted to such lower conversion rate. The Company evaluated this conversion contingency under the guidance at ASC 815-40-15 and determined that this conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host contract and measured at fair value. The Company valued this conversion feature utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model and a probability analysis with regard to the reset provision of the conversion price. The Company determined the initial value to be $55,241, with $50,000 recorded as a debt discount and the remainder as interest expense-derivative conversion features. The discount is being amortized over the life of the note. A total of $8,333 in amortization expense was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013, $27,000 of this debt plus accrued interest was still outstanding.
The Company accounted for the conversion features underlying these convertible debentures in accordance with ASC 815-40,Contract in Entity’s Own Equity, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the value of the derivate conversion features of these debentures issued to these holders during the six months ended June 30, 2013 under these terms at the relevant commitment dates to be $1,121,399 utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. . The change in fair value of the liability for the conversion feature resulted in income of $4,076,175 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, which is included in Other Income (Expense) in the accompanying financial statements. The fair value of these derivative conversion features was determined to be $10,842,902 at June 30, 2013.
In addition, another demand note issued in 2008 and held by Michael Pisani in the amount of $40,000 was restructured to provide for a conversion option. The note was modified to be convertible into stock and five year warrants (exercisable at $0.05) at a conversion rate of $0.025 per share and per warrant. This debt modification resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment of $40,000 and a corresponding recognition of a beneficial conversion feature underlying the new note. In March 2013, the two notes due to Pisani were further restructured to provide for a structured repayment schedule, beginning with a payment of $35,000 in April 2013 and $14,000 per month thereafter until all principal, accrued interest and certain legal costs are fully paid. If the Company defaults on any of the required payments, the terms of the notes would revert back to the terms prior to the agreement. At June 30, 2013 this $40,000 note had been paid in full.

| 15. | FAIR VALUE |
Some of the Company’s financial instruments are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis but are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value due to their liquid or short-term nature, such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables.
Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This topic defines fair value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance supersedes all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The Company accounted for the conversion features underlying certain convertible debentures in accordance with ASC 815-40,Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.
Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820-10-55-23A,Scope Application to Certain Non-Financial Assets and Certain Non-Financial Liabilities, delaying application for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as permitted. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange- traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.
Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.
Level 3 — unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently- traded, non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing models. The company values the conversion liabilities using the Black-Scholes model and the assumptions are updated using independent data such as the risk free rate, volatility and expected life for each valuation date based on changes over time.
The following table reconciles, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, the beginning and ending balances for financial instruments that are recognized at fair value in the consolidated financial statements:
| Conversion Liability at January 1, 2013 | $ | 13,797,679 | ||
| Value of beneficial conversion features of new debentures | 1,121,398 | |||
| Change in value of beneficial conversion features during period | (4,076,175 | ) | ||
| Reductions in fair value due to principal conversions | - | |||
| Conversion Liability at June 30, 2013 | $ | 10,842,902 |
The fair value of the conversion features are calculated at the time of issuance and the Company records a conversion liability for the calculated value. The Company recognizes interest expense for the recognition of the conversion liability.

| 16. | GOODWILL FROM THE ACQUISITION OF KWICK! |
The excess of purchase price over tangible net assets acquired at September 30, 2011 was initially allocated to goodwill in the amount of $6,138,210. At June 30, 3013 management determined based on qualitative and quantitative factors that there was an impairment to goodwill.
The goodwill has been tested by the management of the Company in qualitative assessments throughout the six months ended June 30, 2013. These assessments lead management to identify impairment indicators related to goodwill. Management therefore performed the two-step impairment test for goodwill, utilizing a market approach to the valuation. In estimating the fair value of the reporting unit, Kwick, management considered comparable per user values from recent acquisitions in the industry, as well as the effect of the economic recession and continuing deterioration of the use of social networks in Germany. After applying the estimated fair value of the reporting unit of $2,660,000 to the net assets of Kwick at June 30, 2013, an implied fair value of goodwill of $2,452,812 was calculated. Based on the impairment test, during the three months ended June 30, 2013, goodwill of $3,685,398 was determined to be impaired and was written off.
Due to exchange rate fluctuation, the carrying amount of goodwill that resulted from the acquisition of Kwick decreased in value, with a total of $69,625 in unrealized depreciation from acquisition through June 30, 2013, thereby bringing the total adjusted carrying value of goodwill at June 30, 2013 to $2,383,187.
| 17. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity , which provides guidance on releasing cumulative translation adjustments out of accumulated comprehensive income into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. This guidance is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. As the Company has not ceased to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity, the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
| 18. | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS |

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The information in this annual report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such Act provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their businesses so long as they identify these statements as forward looking and provide meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the projected results. All statements other than those statements of historical fact made in this report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Kiwibox.Com, Inc., contained herein and in the Company’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2012 as filed on Form 10-K. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.
Description of Business
The company successfully acquired the German social network Kwick! in the third quarter 2011. This acquisition added more than 10 million registered members with around 1 million active users, who create more than 2 billion page impressions a month in the Kiwibox network. This community has been online since 1999 and has been cash flow positive since inception. We are continuing to optimize this website and develop mobile applications to keep these users engaged across multiple platforms. We are presently increasing the number of events sponsored in Germany as a way to bind our German members to our website.
The Company has successfully integrated Pixunity to the US market and will continue to add impressive features throughout the year. At the same time we continue to increase our market presence. Our promotional teams, both inside and outside of New York City, continue to develop partnerships with event organizers and businesses along the East Coast of the United States and plan further expansion of these types of market alliances throughout 2013.
| 19 |
The Company attaches great importance to its innovative technology developments and continues to follow the top social network market leaders with technology upgrades, providing its users with an alternative social networking opportunity in the web and through mobile apps.
Based on the integration work and the financial translation overhead the operating expenses, not including stock-based compensation, are at a level of approximately $87,500 per month.
Overall, we have equipped the entire website with the newest state-of-the-art advertising features which enable sponsors to self-direct their message to specific target audiences based on gender, age, geographic region, education, and interests. That also included a Google optimization with privacy options which improves Google search results. Special attention was given to end up with a scale able and highly redundant system that can accommodate future growth. One of the most important features of a social network website is the Search and “be found” function. Here we completely updated our member search function to facilitate friends searches and establish networks of users on a global basis.
During the second quarter of 2013, Kiwibox had an increase of 300% in daily unique member activity. We now have over 10,000 active members per day. Presently Kiwibox is registering 500-800 new users per day. We anticipate expansion to the west coast of the United States in the 3rdquarter of 2013 and to continue updating our mobile apps for the Iphone and Android devices.
Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, total revenues amounted to $309,834 and $626,634, respectively compared to $378,014 and $840,651 recorded in the same periods in 2012.
Gross Profit (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 amounted to $106,475 and $190,569, respectively, after accounting for $203,359 and $436,065, respectively, in cost of sales. After deducting selling - and general and administrative expenses of $370,697 and $814,345 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $548,600 and $1,221,197 recorded in the same period in 2012, and impairment of goodwill in the amount of $3,685,698 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company realized operating losses of $3,949,620 and $4,309,174 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to operating losses of $406,827 and $941,362 in the same periods in 2012. The decline in selling - and general and administrative expenses was the result of cost cutting measures, including the consolidating of staffing to reduce payroll in the operations of Kwick!.
The quarter concluded with a net loss of $720,898 for the quarter and net loss of $1,865,054 for the first six months of 2013. After accounting for dividends accrued on outstanding preferred stock which totaled $25,632, the net income applicable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,890,686 or $0.003 per share compared to a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $6,926,187 or $0.008 per share for the same period in 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our business with new debt since our cash flow is insufficient to provide the working capital necessary to fund our operations. We received $571,372 in cash from short-term loans from accredited private investors during the quarter.We have an ongoing and urgent need for working capital to fund our operations. If we are unable to continue to receive new equity investments or obtain loans, we will not be able to fund our operations and we will be required to close our business.
Our deficit in working capital amounted to $23,530,404 at June 30, 2013, as compared to $25,475,653 at December 31, 2012. Stockholders’ equity showed an impairment of $20,968,207 at the end of the period, compared to an impairment of $19,032,919 at the beginning of the year. The negative cash flow from operations during the six months totaled $729,949 and was financed by new debt.
| 20 |
Our bank debt as of June 30, 2013 consisted of a bank overdraft of $15,066. Aside from trade payables and accruals, our remaining indebtedness at June 30, 2013 consisted of certain notes and loans aggregating $10,139,272, liabilities for derivative conversion features of $10,842,902, amounts due to related parties of $61,071, and the following obligations. The position “Obligations to be settled in stock” of $260,998 accounts for common shares due under consulting agreements, and for services to be settled in common stock options and warrants, where the underlying securities had not yet been issued. Current liabilities also include $658,760 accrued unpaid dividends on outstanding preferred stock. Such dividends will be paid only if and when capital surplus and cash-flow from operations are sufficient to cover the outstanding amounts without thereby unduly impacting the Company’s ability to continue operating and growing its business.
Our current cash reserves and net cash flow from operations expected during the near future will be insufficient to fund our operations and website development and marketing plan over the next twelve months. We expect to fund these requirements with further investments in form of debt or equity capital and are in ongoing discussions with existing investors to secure funding. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to secure needed financing in the future and identify a financing source or sources, and if we do, whether the terms of such financing will be acceptable or commercially reasonable.
Absent the receipt ofneeded equity investment or loans, we will be compelled to severely curtail operations and possibly, close our business operations. Assuming we can receive current funds to continue to operate our businesses, we may need additional funding for marketing and website development, absent of which our website development, results of operations and financial condition could be subject to material adverse consequences.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the fiscal period ended June 30, 2013 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
As of June 30, 2013, management assessed, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework for effective internal control over financial reporting established inInternal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective as more fully described below. Based on management’s assessment over financial reporting, management believes as of June 30, 2012, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the following deficiencies:
1. The Company’s control environment did not have adequate segregation of duties and lacked adequate accounting resources to address non routine and complex transactions and financial reporting matters on a timely basis.
2. The Company had only a part time chief financial officer performing all accounting related duties on site, presenting the risk that the reporting of these non routine and complex transactions during the preparation of our future financial statements and disclosures may not be accomplished in a timely manner.
Company management believes that notwithstanding the above identified deficiencies that constitute our material weakness, that the financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the related statements of operations, and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
- When available, we will devote additional resources to supplement, where necessary, existing resources with additional qualified third party consultants;
- We are continuing to institute more stringent approval processes for financial transactions, and
- We are continuing to perform additional procedures and analyses for significant transactions as a mitigating control in the control environment due to segregation of duties issues.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Other than as stated above, during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
