Independent Auditor's Report


To the Board of Directors
Ziff Davis, Inc.
New York, New York


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Ziff Davis, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statement of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. 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 audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as December 31, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 
Note 1.

Note 2.  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ziff Davis, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ziff Davis B2B (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. A summary of the major accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, which conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, is presented below.

Revenue Recognition: The Company generates revenue from a variety of types of business arrangements:

·  
A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of advertising campaigns that are targeted to its proprietary websites. Revenue for these advertising campaigns is recognized as earned either when an ad is placed for viewing by a visitor to the appropriate web page or when the customer "clicks through" on the ad, depending upon the terms with the individual advertiser.

·  
Another significant source of revenue for the Company is through the generation of business leads for IT vendors through the Company’s business-to-business operations. Revenue for these lead-generation campaigns is recognized as earned when the Company delivers the qualified leads to the customer.

·  
Additional revenue is generated by the Company through the license of certain assets to clients, for the clients’ use in their own promotional materials or otherwise. Such assets may include logos, editorial reviews, or other copyrighted material of the Company. Revenue under such license agreements is recognized when the assets are delivered to the client.

·  
The Company also generates other types of revenue, including business listing fees, subscriptions to online publications, and from other sources.

For each type of revenue, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectibility of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits its temporary cash with financial institutions and, at times, such balances may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are estimated to approximate carrying value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 2. 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through a provision for bad debt charged to expense. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing receivables, based on an evaluation of the collectibility of accounts receivable, overall accounts receivable quality, review of specific accounts receivable, and current economic conditions that may affect customers’ ability to pay. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. Receivables are written off and charged against the allowance when management believes that collectibility is unlikely. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Customer Concentrations: Two customers represented approximately 15% and 10% each of total accounts receivable at December 31, 2011. No concentration in revenue existed in 2011.
 
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Property and equipment acquired through acquisitions of businesses are initially recorded at fair value. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (three to five years). The costs of maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful lives of the assets are charged to operating expenses as incurred.

Internal Use Software and Website Development Costs: The Company capitalizes costs incurred during the development of its website applications and infrastructure as well as certain costs relating to internal use software. The estimated useful life of costs capitalized is evaluated for each specific project. Capitalized internal use software and website development costs are reviewed for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss will be recognized if the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Amortization is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally three years). The Company capitalized internal use software and website development costs of approximately $1,146,000 in the year ended December 31, 2011.

Intangible Assets Subject to Amortization: Intangible assets consist of certain trademarks, licensing agreements and domain names, which will be amortized over the estimated useful life of each, typically five years for licensing agreements and domain names and thirty years for trademarks. The Company reviews these assets for possible impairment whenever circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. A loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations if it is determined that an impairment exists based on expected future undiscounted cash flows. The amount of the impairment is the excess of the carrying amount of the impaired asset over its fair value. There were no impairments and no impairment loss was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Goodwill: The Company’s goodwill was recorded as the result of the Company’s inception (June 4, 2010) and subsequent business combinations. The Company has recorded these business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. The Company tests its recorded goodwill for impairment on an annual basis at December 31, or more often if indicators of potential impairment exist, by determining if the carrying value of each reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Factors that could trigger an interim impairment test include, but are not limited to, underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the Company’s overall business, and significant negative industry or economic trends. During 2011, the Company determined that no impairment of goodwill existed because the estimated fair value of its reporting units exceeded its carrying amounts.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 2. 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Advertising and Marketing: The Company expenses the costs of advertising and marketing as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 was approximately $876,000 and is included in sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Income Taxes: An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting of deferred income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

The Company adheres to the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also addresses derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, in its provision for income taxes. Management evaluated the Company's tax position and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustments to the consolidated financial statements in order to comply with the provisions of this guidance. The tax year 2010 is subject to audit by federal and state jurisdictions.

Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to employees in lieu of monetary payment. The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and recognizes the cost as expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The expense is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s stock option plan is described in Note 10.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements: In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2011-08 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 gives an entity the option in its annual goodwill impairment test to first assess revised qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount (“qualitative assessment”). In certain cases, this will allow an entity to forego the existing two-step goodwill impairment test. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. ASU 2009-13 significantly changes the criteria related to a vendor's multiple element arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. ASU 2009-13 was effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 9.  
Shareholders’ Equity
 
Common Stock: The Company is authorized to issue 54,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value of $0.0001 per share. In August 2011, the Company approved a 10,000-for-1 split of its common stock. All references to common stock have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split.

Preferred Stock: The Company is authorized to issue 3,000 shares of Preferred Stock at a par value of $0.01 per share. During 2011, the Company issued 790 shares of Preferred Stock and 12,238,304 shares of common stock in exchange for net cash proceeds of approximately $21,000,000. The Preferred Stock has the following significant characteristics:

Dividends: Preferred Stock holders are entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the board of directors and out of funds legally available. Preferred Stock holders shall receive cumulative dividends at a rate of 6% per annum compounded annually.

Through December 31, 2011, no dividends had been declared or paid by the Company. As of December 31, 2011, cumulative dividends in arrears for Preferred Stock are approximately $3,350,000.

Liquidation Preference: In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, as defined (a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Preferred Stock shall receive an amount per share equal to $26,133.05, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, before any amount shall be paid or distributed to the holders of common stock (the “Liquidation Value”).

Redemption: The Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the shareholders at any time on or after June 4, 2017 (the “Redemption Date”). Subject to certain limitations, such redemption can be required upon written election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at any time after the Redemption Date or upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, as defined, and shall be on a pro rata basis among the shares of Preferred Stock. The redemption amount for the Preferred Stock shall be equal to the Liquidation Value, which is $57,104,375 at December 31, 2011.

 
Note 10.  
Common Stock and Stock-Based Compensation
 
On June 4, 2010, the Company established the 2010 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the "Plan") that provides for the grant to officers, employees, directors or other key individuals of qualified or non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, restricted or unrestricted stock awards, or restricted stock units. As discussed in Note 2, the compensation costs for such awards are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and is recognized on a straight-line basis as expense over the requisite service period in the consolidated statements of operations.

During 2011 and 2010, the Company issued 667,630 and 1,900,000 shares of restricted common stock, respectively, to various officers of the Company pursuant to the Plan. Such shares will vest ratably over five years from their respective grant dates. The price charged by the Company for such share purchases was deemed to be equal to the fair market value of the stock at the time of grant and, therefore, the Company did not record any compensation expense related to such issuances. Payments for the 2010 purchases were recorded as a receivable and such amounts were collected in full during 2011.

Note 10. 
Common Stock and Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)

During 2011, the Company issued options to purchase up to 240,000 shares of common stock to various employees. The exercise price for these options was deemed to be equal to the fair market value of the stock at the time of grant. The Company calculated the fair values of the options granted using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected volatility
47%
Expected term
 6.0 years
Risk-free interest rate
0.91% - 1.07%
Expected dividend yield
0.0%
Weighted-average grant date fair value per share
 $             0.49
 
 
Since there is no public market for the Company’s common stock, the Company determined the volatility of the Company’s common stock utilizing a peer group of companies for a period equal to the expected life of the options. The expected life of the options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method. The risk-free interest rate is based on a zero coupon United States treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. The expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero, as the Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying cash dividends. The Company has estimated an annual forfeiture rate of 20%. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

A summary of the stock option activity under the Company’s stock option plan for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 is presented below:

   
Options Outstanding
   
Weighted-Average Exercise Price per Share
   
Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Terms in Years
   
Aggregate Intrinsic Value
 
                         
Options outstanding at January 1, 2011
        $           $  
Granted
    240,000       1.08       9.8       65,731  
Exercised
                       
Forfeited

Options outstanding at December 31, 2011
    240,000     $       9.8     $  
                                 
Options exercisable at December 31, 2011
        $           $  
 
In addition to the vested options, the Company expects a portion of the unvested options to vest at some point in the future. Options expected to vest is calculated by applying an estimated forfeiture rate to the unvested options.

 
Note 11.  
Fair Value of Financial Measurements
 
The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB ASC defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and sets out a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined under this guidance as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 
14

 
Ziff Davis, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 
This guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

 
Level 1:         
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. The types of investments in Level 1 include available-for-sale securities traded on a national securities exchange. These securities are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation.

 
Level 2:         
Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, and fair value that is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Investments in this category are less liquid and restricted equity securities, certificates of deposit and certain over-the-counter derivatives. A significant adjustment to a Level 2 input could result in the Level 2 measurement becoming a Level 3 measurement. The Company has no Level 2 investments.

 
Level 3:         
Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability and that include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information in the circumstances and may require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments in this category generally include equity and debt positions in private companies. The Company has no Level 3 investments.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company’s Level 1 investments consist of approximately $349,000 in certificates of deposit as of December 31, 2011; all such amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

 
Note 12.  
Related Party Transactions
 
For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company paid management fees of approximately $250,000 to its lead investor. These fees are included in general and administrative costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

 
Note 13.  
Subsequent Events
 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through October 19, 2012, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

In January 2012, the Company borrowed $2,000,000 from a related party through a promissory note to support temporary working capital and cash flow needs following the cash purchase of Toolbox.com, LLC in December 2011. The promissory note had a maturity of one year and bore simple interest at 6% per annum. The note was repaid in full in May 2012.

In May 2012, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of SX2 Media Labs LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $750,000, of which $650,000 was paid in cash at closing and the remainder was placed in escrow for a period of up to twelve months. Acquired in the transaction was computershopper.com, a leading destination for expert, labs-based reviews and comparison shopping of technology products.

Note 2.                 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ziff Davis, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ziff Davis B2B (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. References to the unaudited nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 herein are for the periods from January 1 to September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. A summary of the major accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements, which conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, is presented below.

Revenue Recognition: The Company generates revenue from a variety of types of business arrangements:

·  
A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of advertising campaigns that are targeted to its proprietary websites. Revenue for these advertising campaigns is recognized as earned either when an ad is placed for viewing by a visitor to the appropriate web page or when the customer "clicks through" on the ad, depending upon the terms with the individual advertiser.
 
·  
Another significant source of revenue for the Company is through the generation of business leads for IT vendors through the Company’s business-to-business operations. Revenue for these lead-generation campaigns is recognized as earned when the Company delivers the qualified leads to the customer.
 
·  
Additional revenue is generated by the Company through the license of certain assets to clients, for the clients’ use in their own promotional materials or otherwise. Such assets may include logos, editorial reviews, or other copyrighted material of the Company. Revenue under such license agreements is recognized when the assets are delivered to the client.
 
·  
The Company also generates other types of revenue, including business listing fees, subscriptions to online publications, and from other sources.
 
For each type of revenue, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectibility of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits its temporary cash with financial institutions and, at times, such balances may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable is estimated to approximate carrying values due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

Note 2.                 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through a provision for bad debt charged to expense. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing receivables, based on an evaluation of the collectibility of accounts receivable, overall accounts receivable quality, review of specific accounts receivable, and current economic conditions that may affect customers’ ability to pay. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. Receivables are written off and charged against the allowance when management believes that collectibility is unlikely and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

Customer Concentrations: One customer represented approximately 10% and 14% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. One customer accounted for approximately 10% of revenue for each of the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Property and equipment acquired through acquisitions of businesses is initially recorded at fair value. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (three to five years). The costs of maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful lives of the assets are charged to operating expenses as incurred.

Internal Use Software and Website Development Costs: The Company capitalizes costs incurred during the development of its website applications and infrastructure as well as certain costs relating to internal use software. The estimated useful life of costs capitalized is evaluated for each specific project. Capitalized internal use software and website development costs are reviewed for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss will be recognized if the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Amortization is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally three years). The Company capitalized internal use software and website development costs of approximately $1,675,000 and $607,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Intangible Assets Subject to Amortization: Intangible assets consist of certain trademarks, licensing agreements and domain names, which will be amortized over the estimated useful life of each, typically five years for licensing agreements and domain names and thirty years for trademarks. The Company reviews these assets for possible impairment whenever circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. A loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations if it is determined that an impairment exists based on expected future undiscounted cash flows. The amount of the impairment is the excess of the carrying amount of the impaired asset over its fair value. There were no impairments and no impairment loss was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Goodwill: The Company’s goodwill was recorded as the result of the Company’s inception (June 4, 2010) and subsequent business combinations. The Company has recorded these business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. The Company tests its recorded goodwill for impairment on an annual basis at December 31, or more often if indicators of potential impairment exist, by determining if the carrying value of each reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Factors that could trigger an interim impairment test include, but are not limited to, underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the Company’s overall business, and significant negative industry or economic trends. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company determined that no impairment of goodwill existed because the estimated fair value of its reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount.

Note 2.                 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Advertising and Marketing: The Company expenses the costs of advertising and marketing as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $326,000 and $483,000, respectively, and is included in sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Income Taxes: An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting of deferred income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

The Company adheres to the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also addresses derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, in its provision for income taxes. Management evaluated the Company's tax position and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustments to the financial statements in order to comply with the provisions of this guidance. The tax years 2010, 2011 and 2012 are open and subject to audit by federal and state jurisdictions.

Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to employees in lieu of monetary payment. The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and recognizes the cost as expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The expense is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s stock option plan is described in Note 10.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement: In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2011-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 gives an entity the option in its annual goodwill impairment test to first assess revised qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount (“qualitative assessment”). In certain cases, this will allow an entity to forego the existing two-step goodwill impairment test. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

Preferred Stock: The Company is authorized to issue 3,000 shares of Preferred Stock at a par value of $0.01 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 790 shares of Preferred Stock and 12,238,304 shares of common stock in exchange for net cash proceeds of approximately $21,000,000. As of September 30, 2012, 2,057 shares are issued and outstanding. The Preferred Stock has the following significant characteristics:

Dividends: Preferred Stock holders are entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the board of directors and out of funds legally available. Preferred Stock holders shall receive cumulative dividends at a rate of 6% per annum compounded annually.

Through September 30, 2012, no dividends have been declared or paid by the Company. As of September 30, 2012, cumulative dividends in arrears for Preferred Stock are approximately $5,927,000.

Liquidation Preference: In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, as defined (a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Preferred Stock shall receive an amount per share equal to $26,133.05, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends, before any amount shall be paid or distributed to the holders of common stock (the “Liquidation Value”).

Redemption: The Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the shareholders at any time on or after June 4, 2017 (the “Redemption Date”). Subject to certain limitations, such redemption can be required upon written election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at any time after the Redemption Date or upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, as defined, and shall be on a pro rata basis among the shares of Preferred Stock.

Note 10.               Stock-Based Compensation

On June 4, 2010, the Company established the 2010 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the "Plan") that provides for the grant to officers, employees, directors or other key individuals of qualified or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, restricted or unrestricted stock awards, or restricted stock units. As discussed in Note 2, the compensation costs for such awards are accounted for in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the estimated fair value of the award using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and is recognized on a straight-line basis as expense over the requisite service period in the consolidated statements of operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company issued options to purchase up to 80,000 shares of common stock to various employees. The exercise price for these options was deemed to be equal to the fair market value of the stock at the time of grant. There were no awards issued our outstanding as of September 30, 2011. The Company calculated the fair values of the options granted using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected volatility
50%
Expected term
 6.0 years
Risk-free interest rate
0.69% - 0.90%
Expected dividend yield
0.0%
Weighted-average grant date fair value per share
$0.51
 
Since there is no public market for the Company’s common stock, the Company determined the volatility of the Company’s common stock utilizing a peer group of companies for a period equal to the expected life of the options. The expected life of the options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method. The risk-free interest rate is based on a zero coupon United States treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. The expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero, as the Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying cash dividends. The Company has estimated an annual forfeiture rate of 20%. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

Note 11.               Fair Value of Financial Measurements

The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB ASC defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and sets out a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined under this guidance as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

This guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

 
Level 1:         
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. The types of investments in Level 1 include available-for-sale securities traded on a national securities exchange. These securities are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation.

 
Level 2:         
Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, and fair value that is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Investments in this category generally include less liquid and restricted equity securities, certificates of deposit and certain over-the-counter derivatives. A significant adjustment to a Level 2 input could result in the Level 2 measurement becoming a Level 3 measurement. The Company has no Level 2 investments.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 
 
Note 11.               Fair Value of Financial Measurements (Continued)

 
Level 3:         
Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability and that include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information in the circumstances and may require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments in this category generally include equity and debt positions in private companies. The Company has no Level 3 investments.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company’s Level 1 investments consist of approximately $861,000 and $348,000 in certificates of deposit as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively; all such amounts are included in security deposits on the consolidated balance sheets.
 

Note 12.                 Related Party Transactions

In each of the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company paid management fees of approximately $188,000 to its lead investor. These fees are included in general and administrative costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
 

Note 13.                 Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through January 23, 2013, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

In November 2012, the shareholders of the Company sold substantially all of the equity of the Company to j2 Global, Inc.

On November 9, 2012, j2 Global, Inc. (“j2 Global”) acquired Ziff Davis, Inc. (“Ziff Davis”) for a purchase price of approximately $166.4 million plus assumed liabilities, (the “Acquisition”).  In connection with the Acquisition, certain management of Ziff Davis converted a portion of their shares in Ziff Davis into 8,557 shares of a new series of Series A cumulative participating preferred stock of Ziff Davis having a face value of $8,557,000 (“Non-controlling interest”).  The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011 are based on the historical financial statements of j2 Global and Ziff Davis using the acquisition method of accounting.
 
The unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on September 30, 2012, and includes all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Acquisition and are factually supportable.  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2011, and include all adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the Acquisition, are expected to have a continuing impact, and are factually supportable.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for informational purposes only and are not intended to represent or to be indicative of the results of operations or financial position that j2 Global would have reported had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect management’s preliminary estimates of the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Upon completion of the valuation for the Acquisition, the Company may make additional adjustments, and these valuations could change significantly from those used in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
 
These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with j2 Global’s historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in j2 Global’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, j2 Global’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, j2 Global’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2012, Ziff Davis’ historical financial statements and notes thereto for the period ended December 31, 2011 contained herein as Exhibit 99.1 and historical unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 contained herein as Exhibit 99.2.

G.  
No adjustments to the tax basis of Ziff Davis’ assets and liabilities are expected as a result of the Acquisition. Accordingly, deferred income taxes at September 30, 2012 have been adjusted by approximately $21.2 million caused by book and tax differences after the allocation of the pro forma purchase price.

I.  
Reflects the elimination of Ziff Davis’ historical stockholders’ equity balances.

J.  
Reflects the elimination of interest income for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the reduction of interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 related to interest income earned on cash consideration for the Acquisition.  As of January 1, 2011, j2 Global did not have sufficient cash and investments on hand to fund the Acquisition. Accordingly, the pro forma unaudited combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 reflects the elimination of all interest income recognized on j2 Global’s cash and investments.  Interest income in the pro forma unaudited combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflects a reduction of $1 million, representing the interest earned on the $166.4 million cash consideration for the Acquisition at an average annual interest rate of 0.6%.
