PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GENERAL
Through December 31, 2009, Mangosoft (the “Company”) marketed, sold and supported Internet business software and services that improve the utility and effectiveness of Internet-based business applications. Our software solutions address the networking needs of small businesses, workgroups and large enterprises. We have leveraged our patented technology known as “Pooling” to develop our suite of software solutions. Pooling is a peer-to-peer clustering technology that utilizes the network and resources of client personal computers (“PCs”) and workstations to deliver easy-to-use advanced software services. Mangosoft’s proprietary software applications help businesses gain a competitive advantage by improving collaboration with customers, partners and colleagues through smarter, faster Internet communications.
As of January 1, 2010, we entered into a Hosting Licensing Agreement with Built Right Networks (“Built Right”) under which Built Right provides our software and services to existing Mangosoft customers and new Built Right customers for their own account. Built Right will provide services, maintain the software offering and manage the existing Mangosoft website for the benefit of their customers. Mangosoft retains all intellectual property rights for its software including Mangomind™ and fileTrust™. The Hosting Licensing Agreement grants a non-exclusive license to Built Right and is cancelable under certain conditions. We are evaluating alternate applications for our intellectual property. We believe that the current offerings did not provide sufficient growth opportunity for the Company and were more suited to companies such as Built Right with active technology service business models.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
We no longer develop new software products or services. We discontinued the direct marketing, sale and support of our software services as of January 1, 2010. Our strategy includes seeking strategic business partnerships and distribution channels to leverage our patented technology as well as seeking profitable businesses in which our intellectual property will provide opportunity for profitability. We will also seek business opportunities in which third party technology solutions will provide opportunities for revenue diversification and growth and improved operations and profits. All of our business operations are overseen by our sole officer and our Board of Directors, who utilizes third party contractors, as required, to implement the Company’s business strategy.
COMPETITION
We previously competed with general technology suppliers such as Microsoft Corporation, Oracle Corporation, EMC Corporation and Novell, Inc., as well as emerging Internet collaboration companies such as Groove Networks, Inc. With the execution of our Hosting Licensing Agreement with Built Right Networks, we do not anticipate that we will encounter competition from these companies as well as others entering the Internet storage and collaboration markets. The Company is unable to determine the competition it will encounter going forward. There are no assurances that its business will not be faced with considerable competitive pressures.
PRODUCTS
Our core technology includes our patented, peer-to-peer clustering technology, originally marketed as Pooling. This technology combines memory and disk resources of multiple systems on a network into a coherent shared resource, featuring an efficient distributed directory, dynamic data movement and data replication. We have applied for ten patents on our technology, five of which have been granted.
Mangosoft’s software and services make the Internet a better place for business. Our former customers, now customers of Built Right under the terms of our Hosting Licensing Agreement, use Mangomind SM to easily and securely connect with remote colleagues, clients and partners around the world. In doing so, Mangomind enables its users to make smarter and faster business decisions. Mangomind provides the secure file sharing benefits of a virtual private network (“VPN”) without additional hardware and configuration complexities.
Mangomind is an adaptation of our patented Pooling technology that delivers an easy-to-use virtual file service for the Internet. Mangomind combines the familiarity of Windows applications with the power of the Internet to deliver a secure means for multiple users to access, share and store important business files. Mangomind is sold as both a service and a standalone software product. The Mangomind service provides the security of a VPN without the additional hardware and configuration complexities. This virtual file service is hosted by a leading provider of complex Internet services and provides the familiar interface of a shared network drive. The Mangomind product was sold as a software license and the typical sale includes installation, training and extended support services. The Mangomind product is intended for the enterprise customer.
Mangomind facilitates business-to-business communications using the following features:
· | Simultaneous, multi-user file access. Mangomind is an Internet file-sharing system that allows multiple users in any location to simultaneously access and share files. |
| |
· | Online workgroup collaboration. Mangomind allows multiple users to collaborate online using Windows database applications commonly used in accounting, contact management, calendars, appointment scheduling and project management software packages. |
| |
· | Robust, safe and secure. Mangomind allows users to set access permissions for files and folders on a Mangomind drive. Data encryption (128-bit) at the client (user) level ensures that all files are securely transmitted and stored. Service level agreements ensure that a user’s files are available and protected. |
| |
· | Business level security through encryption. Access to shared files is restricted to clients authenticated by using public/private keys; each Mangomind user is authenticated using state-of-the-art private key encryption. Data is stored in encrypted form to prevent unauthorized access. |
| |
· | File access permissions . The Mangomind file system allows users to define access permissions for users or groups of users on individual drives, files and folders. Permission settings are easily specified using the same familiar Microsoft Windows procedures. |
| |
· | Familiar Windows interface. Mangomind looks and operates just like a local drive and is completely integrated with Windows. No user training is required; applications run as if on a local drive. |
| |
· | Access anytime, even when offline. When disconnected from the Internet, users can continue to work on their files offline because Mangomind caches the latest version of a file into a system’s local memory. Mangomind automatically synchronizes the files when the user reconnects to the Internet. |
· | High availability service . The Mangomind service provides automatic backup and restore functions, full-time customer support and service, and service level agreements to ensure high availability of the service. The Mangomind service is hosted and managed by leading service providers. |
fileTRUST SM is an online data storage service. fileTRUST SM users can access their stored files from any Internet-connected system. The fileTRUST SM service complements our Mangomind service by providing our customers with a lower cost online storage system. In conjunction with our purchase of fileTRUST SM
MARKETING AND SALES
We previously marketed our products and services primarily through a reseller channel. Effective September 30, 2002, we executed an Information Management Service Agreement (the “Outsourced Services Agreement”) with Built Right Networks. Under the terms of the Outsourced Services Agreement, Built Right Networks provided reseller channel management in addition to information systems and technical end-user support for our products and services. With the execution of the Hosting Licensing Agreement, our Outsourced Services Agreement with Built Right Networks was terminated as of December 31, 2009. Under the terms of the Hosting Licensing Agreement, Built Right Networks assumed all existing customers accounts. We are not actively marketing or selling our software products at this time. The Company will consider different applications of its intellectual property and retains all rights to these assets under the new agreement with Built Right Networks.
PRODUCT SUPPORT
Built Right Networks provided end-users and reselling channel with product support under the terms of the Outsourced Services Agreement. Under the terms of the Hosting Licensing Agreement, the Outsourced Services Agreement has been terminated. All technical support is provided directly by Built Right Networks. Built Right Networks will maintain the Mangosoft web site for purposes of providing maintenance and support to end-users and resellers..
CONCENTRATIONS
We generated the majority of our revenues from the sale of our products and services in North America. All of our 2009 and 2008 revenues were generated from sales to North American customers.
Excluding the $2,300,000 one time license fee revenue in 2008 as discussed under legal proceedings, one customer in 2009 and two customers in 2008 accounted for approximately 13% and 37% of our 2009 and 2008 net revenues, respectively.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
To date, we have been granted five patents as follows: (i) System and Method for Providing Highly Available Data Storage Using Globally Addressable Memory (June 1, 1999); (ii) Structured Data Storage Using Globally Addressable Memory (June 29, 1999); (iii) Remote Access and Geographically Distributed Computers in a Globally Addressable Storage Environment (November 16, 1999); (iv) Shared client-side Web Caching Using Globally Addressable Memory (February 15, 2000); and (v) Shared Memory Computer Networks (November 14, 2000). We have applied for five additional U.S. patents which applications are still pending. Our patents cover aspects of our peer-to-peer clustering technology, Cachelink and Mangomind. We have also filed patent applications outside of the U.S. that are counterparts to the issued patents and pending applications. We also own trademarks on “Cachelink,” “Medley,” “Mango,” and “MangoSoft.” In addition, we also own service marks on “Mangomind,” “fileTRUST” and “the Business Internet File Service.”
We consider elements of our software and peer-to-peer clustering technology to be proprietary. We rely on a combination of trade secrets, copyright and trademark law, contractual provisions, confidentiality agreements, and certain technology and security measures to protect our intellectual property, proprietary technology and know-how. We have taken actions to secure our proprietary technology in the form of patent protection.
See Item 3. Legal Proceedings, included in this annual report, for a complete description of legal proceedings related to our intellectual property.
We license encryption software from a leading e-security software provider. This encryption software allows multiple users to more securely transmit, share and store files via the Mangomind service. All files shared, stored and transmitted over the Internet using the Mangomind service are protected with 128-bit encryption. Built Right Networks will be required to make royalty payments to the software provider based on the volume of their sales going forward.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2009, we had one employee and outsourced all functions
ITEM 1A. RISK FACORS
We Have a Limited Operating History and Substantial Cumulative Operating Losses.
We have a history of substantial operating losses and an accumulated deficit of $89,222,212 as of December 31, 2009. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, our income (loss) from operations was $(293,073), and $547,660, respectively. We have historically experienced cash flow difficulties primarily because our expenses have exceeded our revenues. We expect to incur additional operating losses. These factors, among others, raise significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue from our operations to pay expenses or we are unable to obtain additional financing on commercially reasonable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.
We Will Need Additional Financing.
We may require additional capital to finance our future operations. We can provide no assurance that we will obtain additional financing sufficient to meet our future needs on commercially reasonable terms or otherwise.,
Our Success Depends on Ability to Develop Alternative Uses for our Software and/or New Business Opportunities.
The Company’s success going forward depends on our ability to find alternative uses for our software and/or new business opportunities that generate revenues and profits. The Company is diligently evaluating new opportunities but has made no decisions or commitments to date. There is no assurance that we will be successful in developing or finding alternative business opportunities or that we will be successful in building or managing a business in an y alternate area of interest at this time.
Our Performance Depends on Market Acceptance of Our Product or Servicess.
In connection with our efforts to develop or find alternative business opportunities, we can give no assurance that we will not be dependent on market acceptance of future products or services. There is the risk that the Company will not find alternate business opportunities to develop or acquire. The Company will be subject to the risks related to the development or acquisition of any business including those risks related to performing in new markets and /or industries with which the Company is not familiar.
There May Be Limited Liquidity in Our Common Stock and Its Price May Be Subject to Fluctuation.
Our common stock is currently traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and there is only a limited market for our common stock. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to have our common stock listed on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ or that it will continue to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. If there is no trading market for our common stock, the market price of our common stock will be materially and adversely affected.
SEC Rules Concerning Sales of Low-Priced Securities May Hinder Re-Sales of Our Common Stock
Because our common stock has a market price that is less than five dollars per share, our common stock is not listed on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ and is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. Brokers and dealers who handle trades in our common stock are subject to certain SEC disclosure rules when effecting trades in our common stock, including disclosure of the following: the bid and offer prices of our common stock, the compensation of the brokerage firm and the salesperson handling a trade and legal remedies available to the buyer. These requirements may hinder re-sales of our common stock and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
We may not be successful in identifying new markets, adapting our intellectual property to other products or developing and marketing new products ..
Our business is subject to rapid changes in technology. We can provide no assurances that research and development by competitors will not render our technology obsolete or uncompetitive. We are evaluating the strategic value of our intellectual property and are actively seeking alternative applications for these software assets. We can provide no assurances that we will be successful in identifying new markets, adapting our intellectual property to products that address such markets and/or developing and marketing new products in such a manner as to be effective against our competition. If our technology is rendered obsolete or we are unable to develop new products to compete effectively, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.
Litigation Concerning Intellectual Property Could Adversely Affect Our Business.
We rely on a combination of trade secrets, copyright and trademark law, contractual provisions, confidentiality agreements and certain technology and security measures to protect our trademarks, patents, proprietary technology and know-how. However, we can provide no assurance that our rights in our intellectual property will not be infringed upon by competitors or that competitors will not similarly make claims against us for infringement. If we are required to be involved in litigation involving intellectual property rights, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.
Defects in Our Software Products May Adversely Affect Our Business.
Complex software such as the software developed by MangoSoft may contain defects when introduced and also when updates and new versions are released. Our introduction of software with defects or quality problems may result in adverse publicity, product returns, reduced orders, uncollectible or delayed accounts receivable, product redevelopment costs, loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products or claims by customers or others against us. Such problems or claims may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We Have Limitations On The Effectiveness Of Our Internal Controls.
We have one full-time employee. This employee is engaged in general and administrative capacities. A complete set of internal controls is not possible in an organization of this size. Management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal controls will prevent all errors and intentional misrepresentations. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within the organization have been detected.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
As of December 31, 2009 the Company does not have any unresolved Staff Comments.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
As of December 31, 2009 the Company does not own or lease any property.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no material pending legal proceedings
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF THE SECURITY HOLDERS
No matters were submitted during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2009 to a vote of our security holders, through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

OVERVIEW
We marketed, sold and supported Internet business software and services that improve the utility and effectiveness of Internet-based business applications. Our software solutions address the networking needs of small businesses, workgroups and large enterprises. Our products and services enhance the performance of PC networks and deliver improved service utilizing existing equipment. We no longer develop new software products or services. As of January 1, 2010, we entered into a hosting Licensing Agreement with Built Right Networks which transferred all existing customer accounts to Built Right Networks for their own account. The agreement grants a non-exclusive license to Built Right Networks for our Mangomind and fileTrust™ products. We are no longer actively marketing, selling or supporting these products on a direct basis. However, we have retained all intellectual property rights and intend to evaluate alternative business opportunities for our intellectual property.
Mangomind SM is a multi-user, business-oriented, peer-to-peer file sharing system, allowing individual users to collaborate over the Internet across organizational boundaries in a safe and secure manner. The architecture is a blend of the manageability of client/server with the autonomy, clustering, and caching optimizations of peer-to-peer. The user experience is one of easy file sharing with colleagues through what looks like an ordinary LAN shared drive. Mangomind SM provides the secure file sharing benefits of a VPN without additional hardware and configuration complexities. Mangomind SM is sold as both a service and a standalone software product
fileTRUST SM is an online data storage service. fileTRUST SM users can access their stored files from any Internet-connected system. The fileTRUST SM service compliments our Mangomind SM service by providing customers with a lower cost online storage system.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our accounting policies are fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. The following describes the application of accounting principles that have significant impact on our consolidated financial statements:
Going Concern Assumption - The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. If the consolidated financial statements were prepared on liquidation basis, the carrying value of our assets and liabilities would be adjusted to net realizable amounts. In addition, the classification of the assets and liabilities would be adjusted to reflect the liquidation basis of accounting.
Revenue Recognition - We recognized revenue generated from product sales when persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, the price was fixed and determinable, delivery had occurred and collection was probable. We recognized revenue generated from the sale of the Mangomind SM and fileTRUST SM services as the service was provided. We recognized revenue generated from the sale of the Mangomind SM product over the period of the first year’s maintenance agreement when persuasive evidence of the arrangement existed, the price was fixed and determinable, delivery and any required installation had been completed and collection is probable. These revenues will be recognized for the account of Built Right Networks going forward under the terms of our Hosting Licensing Agreement.
Stock-based Compensation - As part of our compensation programs offered to our employees, we grant stock options. In addition, we have engaged third-party consultants and advisors and have compensated them in the form of stock options. The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements based on estimated fair value. Stock based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $1,132. There was no stock based compensation expense recorded in 2008.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of services - Cost of services consist solely of the expenses we incurred to administer and service the Mangomind SM and fileTRUST SM services. These expenses consisted primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, the cost of our outsourced data center, the license royalties we pay to our e-security software provider for the encryption used in the Mangomind SM service and the fees we paid to Built Right Networks to manage our billable services infrastructure. These costs will be recognized for the account of Built Right Networks or eliminated going forward under the terms of our Hosting Licensing Agreement.
Other Operating Expenses - General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of salaries and related personnel costs and other general corporate costs such as facility costs, commercial and general liability insurance, accounting and legal expenses and other costs typical of a publicly held corporation. At December 31, 2009, there were no full time employees performing selling and marketing activities.
Reduction in Force - We have reduced our work force on four occasions since April 23, 2001 due to adverse economic conditions and our need to conserve capital. At December 31, 2009, we had one employee and outsourced almost functions.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
Service revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased $119,686 or 45% to $149,097 compared with $268,783 for 2008. In 2008, there was a one-time license fee in the amount of $2,300,000 as a result of the settlement of litigation with Skype. Excluding the Skype license fee revenue, two customers accounted for 37% and 25% of our revenues in 2009 and 2008 respectively. We recognized $138,506 from the sale of our Mangomind SM service and $10,591 from the sale of our fileTRUST SM service during the year ended December 31, 2009. During the year 2008, we recognized $256,381 from the sale of the Mangomind SM service and $12,402 from the sale of our fileTRUST SM service.
Cost of services for year ended December 31, 2009 decreased $84,446 or 32.5% to $175,029 compared to $259,475 for the comparable year in 2008. Cost of services consists primarily of outsourced data center charges with Built Right Networks.
There was no engineering and development expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we had no employees performing engineering or development activities
For the year ended December 31, 2009, other operating expenses including selling and marketing and general and administrative expenses decreased $731,507 or 73% to $267,141 compared with $998,648 for the comparable period in 2008. The decrease in other operating expenses primarily relates to an additional $763,000 in legal fees, in 2008, as a result of the Skype litigation settlement. These legal fees include $690,000 that was contingent on a favorable outcome for the Company.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, our one (1) full-time employee was working in a general and administrative capacity. As of December 31, 2008, we had one employee working in a general and administrative capacity and outsourced other functions.
There was stock based compensation of $1,132 included in general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 and no stock-based compensation recorded for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Our results of operations deteriorated by $840,733 to a loss of $293,073 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared with net income from operations of $547,660 for 2008 This is primarily a result of the one-time license fee in 2008 from Skype offset by the related legal fees as discussed above.
Interest income increased $69,728 to $89,128 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $19,400 for the year ended December 31, 2008. This interest is related to our investment in Law Cash, as described in Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We were formed in June 1995 and, since our formation, have raised approximately $75,450,000 in financing from private placements of debt and equity securities. In addition to the financing we received through the sale of our securities, we have, at times, depended upon loans from stockholders and directors and credit from suppliers to meet interim financing needs. Borrowings from stockholders and directors have generally been refinanced with new debt instruments or converted into additional equity. At December 31, 2009, approximately $79,000 in additional financing was provided through accounts payable, accrued expenses and other trade credit, a significant portion of which is past due.
At December 31, 2009, we had a cash balance of approximately $677,000 and a working capital balance of approximately $1,711,000. We do not have any commercial commitments or off balance sheet financing. Our commitments under our operating leases are described in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.
We did not make any capital expenditures during the fiscal year 2009.
We have significantly modified our operations and reduced our work force on four separate occasions since April 2001. We outsourced the management of our billable services infrastructure, software code base, customer support and reseller channel management to Built Right Networks through December 31, 2009. Built Right Networks received a fee based on the percentage of monthly income earned plus an administration fee. The outsourcing arrangement with Built Right Networks was terminated as of December 31, 2009 under the terms of our Hosting Licensing Agreement with Built Right under which Built Right Networks will maintain product and customer support for their own account. With the transition of all our existing accounts to Built Right Networks under this new agreement as of January 1, 2010, our billable infrastructure services are no longer necessary.
Unless we can generate significant on-going revenue, we will need additional sources of equity or debt financing. Although we have been successful in raising past financing, there can be no assurances that additional financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
As shown in the audited consolidated financial statements, during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we recognized net income (loss) of $(55,791) and $567,060, respectively. Cash provided by (used in) operations during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $(335,412) and $640,580 respectively. These factors, among others, raise significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow and meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately attain profitability.
PLAN OF OPERATION
We believe that we may be required to raise additional funds in order to meet our cash requirements. In the event that our revenues from the current marketing, sales and support of our business software and services are insufficient, we may need to seek alternative sources of capital over the next twelve (12) months. While we do not anticipate any capital expenditures, product research and development or significant increase in employees over the next twelve (12) months, we continue to have additional cash needs related to our ongoing operations. In the event that cash flow from operations is insufficient for us to meet our obligations on a timely basis, we will be required to raise additional capital from stockholders, of which there can be no assurances.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any commercial commitments or off balance sheet financing. Our commitments under our operating leases are described in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our consolidated financial statements and related notes, which are attached to this Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning on page 29, are incorporated by reference.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with our sole employee Dennis Goett in his role as President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of December 31, 2009.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO Framework”). Based on our evaluation , our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on criteria set forth on the COSO Framework.
At December 31, 2009, we had one employee and outsourced most functions. A complete set of internal controls including segregation of duties is not possible in an organization of this size. However, we have implemented control procedures surrounding the maintenance of our accounting and financial systems and the safeguarding of our assets. Further, all transactions entered into outside the normal course of our day-to-day operations must be approved by Mr. Dennis Goett, Chief Operating Officer.
Our Chief Operating Officer, President and director, after evaluating the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"), has concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Operating Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have identified deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal controls that we consider to be material weaknesses in the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls pursuant to standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Specifically, we found that the Company has an overall lack of segregation of duties as well as a lack of necessary corporate accounting resources related to the financial reporting process and accounting functions as the Company does not have any full time accounting personnel. The Company’s President serves as both Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Accordingly, certain functional and monitoring controls do not exist as of December 31, 2009.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
None.

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

As a result of the vacancy created by the death of Mr. Vincent, on April 28, 2009, Selig Zises was elected as a Director of the Company by written consent of a majority of the stockholders of the Company in lieu of a stockholders’ meeting. Thereafter, Mr. Zises appointed himself as Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Secretary of the Company. Mr. Zises will not receive any compensation as an officer or director of the Company. Mr. Zises is 67 years of age and has been a private investor for the past five (5) years.

Section 16 (a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules there under require our directors and officers and persons who own more than 10% of our outstanding common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Our personnel generally prepare these reports on the basis of information obtained from each director and officer, and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the Commission to furnish the Company with copies of all reports filed. To the best of our knowledge, all reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act to be filed by our directors, officers and 10% or greater stockholders during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 were filed on time.
Audit Committee
We do not have an Audit Committee comprised of independent directors
Code of Ethics

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Overview
The Board of Directors is responsible for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with our compensation philosophy. The Board seeks to ensure that the total compensation is fair and reasonable. As of December 31, 2009, we have two (2) executive officers.
This section describes our compensation program for our executive officers. The discussion focuses on our executive compensation policies and decisions and the most important factors relevant to an analysis of these policies and decisions. We address why we believe our compensation program is appropriate for us and our stockholders, and we explain how executive compensation is determined.
Compensation Philosophy and Design
Historically, our compensation philosophy has been to preserve cash and minimize expenses while rewarding the creation of long-term stockholder value. Our historical compensation philosophy and design have more closely resembled that of a private company than a public company. In addition, our Board of Directors has not adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation between cash and equity compensation or other forms of non-cash compensation.
As a result of our history of operating losses, our cash compensation plans have been designed to balance our salary expenses against cash flows and available cash and our need to retain key members of management. Our executive compensation packages have not included a variable cash compensation element to date.
Objectives of Our Compensation Program for Executive Officers
The fundamental objective of our executive compensation and benefits program is to maximize stockholder value over time.
As noted above, our compensation decisions to date have been based largely on our budget and operating results and on our need to preserve cash.
Elements of Executive Compensation
Our compensation program consists of a base salary and a long-term compensation awarded in equity, consisting of equity-based incentives such as stock options.
In recent periods, there have been no discretionary bonuses for our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Operating Officer. Our Chief Executive Officer or our Chief Operating Officer is currently not entitled under the terms of his employment to any cash severance or similar benefits in connection with a termination of employment or change of control. However, there are provisions in the option agreement of the Chief Operating Officer for the acceleration of option vesting in the event of certain termination or change of control events.
Currently all of our cash compensation is paid out within one year. We do not have any deferred compensation cash plans. Our equity-based incentives are long-term incentives that are based on the parameters described below under "Equity-Based Incentives."
Allocation of Compensation Among Principal Elements
The specifics of each element are as follows:
Base Salary
Historically, we have paid base salaries that we believe are below the market median for officers performing comparable jobs at comparable public companies. The annual salary for Dale Vincent, our President and Chief Executive Officer, remained the same at $202,000 on an annualized basis for 2009 and 2008. Mr. Vincent passed away in April 2009, terminating his compensation at the date of his passing.
Equity-Based Incentives
We grant equity-based incentives to our Chief Operating Officer (“COO”), in order to create a corporate culture that aligns employee interests with stockholder interests. We have not adopted any specific stock ownership guidelines. At present, our long-term compensation consists solely of stock options. Our Board of Directors grants options to our executive officer to enable him to participate in any long-term appreciation in our stockholder value.
During the year ended December 31, 2009 the Board of Directors granted options to purchase up to 272,150 shares of the Company’s common stock to its COO. As a result of this grant $1,132 of stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the Company’s statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Discretionary Bonuses
We have not adopted any formal cash bonus plans.
Benefits
We provide no benefits to our executive officer.
SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
The following table presents information concerning the total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer for services rendered to us in all capacities for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of MangoSoft, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MangoSoft, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of MangoSoft, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after the elimination of all significant intercompany balances.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 balance sheet dates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Equivalents - Cash and equivalents include cash on hand, cash deposited with banks and highly liquid debt securities with remaining maturities of ninety days or less when purchased.
Concentration of Credit Risk - - The Company maintains deposits in financial institutions, which occasionally exceed federally insured limits. Senior management continually reviews the financial stability of these institutions.
Sales to one customer accounted for 13% of total sales during 2009. Sales to two customers accounted for approximately 37% of total sales during 2008.
The Company purchases all of its outsourced data center services from one vendor. Management believes an alternate vendor could be secured in the event the current vendor discontinued services in its current capacity.
Intangible Assets - Intangible assets consist of acquired technology, customer relationships and service marks (see Note 3).
Revenue Recognition - Software revenue is recognized upon delivery if persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and determinable, delivery has occurred and collection is probable. Revenue from sales to distributors is recognized upon sales to end users. Service revenue is recognized as services are performed.
Software Development Costs - Costs incurred prior to technological feasibility of the Company’s software products are expensed as research and development costs. Certain costs incurred after technological feasibility has been established are capitalized. To date, the time period between the establishment of technological feasibility and completion of software development has been short and no significant development costs have been incurred during that period. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs to date.
Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements based on estimated fair value. The Company estimates fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Significant assumptions used to estimate fair value under this model are; expected term 6.25 years; expected volatility 249%; dividend rate 0%; risk free rate 2.9%. Stock based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $1,132. There was no stock based compensation expense recorded in 2008.
MANGOSOFT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Equity instruments issued to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Boards Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 505-50, “Equity Payments to Non-employees.”
The Company’s 1999 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended, provides for the issuance of up to 296,297 shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants in the form of nonqualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock grants and other stock-based awards, including stock appreciation rights. Employee options typically vest over three or four year periods. An option’s maximum term is ten years.
Income Taxes - Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to those amounts expected to be realized.
Comprehensive Loss - Comprehensive loss was equal to net loss for each year presented.
Net Loss Per Common Share - Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share reflects, in addition to the weighted average number of common shares, the potential dilution if common stock options were exercised into common stock, unless the effects of such exercises would have been anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2009, there were 272,150 stock options outstanding the effects of which would be anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2008, we had 75,000 stock options outstanding which have been included in diluted common shares outstanding.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effectively July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - Overall (“ASC 105-10”). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the sources of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance continued in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements. FASB Position or Emerging Issue Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”).
The Company adopted ASC 855, “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855”). ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. The adoption of ASC Topic 855 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

V. Skype Technologies, S.A. et al., Civil Action No. 2:06CV-390 TJW, which was pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.

The Agreement also provides for general releases and dismisses the existing litigation between the parties. There was $879,537 associated with the settlement, thus netting cash proceeds of $1,420,463.
4. Income Taxes
ASC 740-10, Income Taxes prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold of financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. The Company has not had any uncertain tax positions requiring derecognition.
The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company, files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the state of New Hampshire. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state and local tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006, although carry forward tax attributes that were generated prior to 2005 may still be adjusted upon examination by tax authorities if they either have been or will be utilized. It is the Company’s policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in penalty expense. For both the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, there were no amounts of interest and penalties,recognized.
The Company has federal and state tax net operating loss carryforwards available for future periods of approximately $72,200,000. The federal tax net operating loss carryforwards expire beginning in 2010, and state tax net operating loss carryforwards began expiring in 2000. As a result of the changes in the ownership of the Company, there may be limitations on the amounts of net operating loss carryforwards that may be utilized in any one year. The Company also has research and development credits for federal tax purposes of approximately $518,000, which expire beginning in 2011.
The tax effect of significant items comprising the Company’s deferred tax assets at December 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | 2009 | |
| | | |
Deferred tax assets: | | | |
Net operating loss carryforwards | | $ | 24,749,000 | |

4. Income Taxes (continued)
The Company believes that uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has established a valuation allowance for the full amount as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

On January 10, 2007, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,400,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share to a group of investors led by current stockholders. Through the private placement of its common stock, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $1,200,000. One of the investors in the offering provided bridge financing to the Company on September 20, 2006 in the principal amount of $250,000.
