Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Worthpoint Corporation (the “Company”) which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Worthpoint Corporation as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

WORTHPOINT CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Worthpoint Corporation was incorporated on January 16, 2007 (“Inception”) in the State of Delaware. The Company’s headquarters are located in Atlanta, Georgia.  The Company has developed a suite of online and mobile offerings consisting of a database for researching and valuing antiques, art and collectibles, a detailed catalog of Maker's Marks and other identifying indicators, as well as access to a library of reference books and price guides from leading publishers in a wide range of antiques and collecting categories. The consolidated financial statements of Worthpoint Corporation and subsidiaries (which may be referred to as "Worthpoint," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Management Plans

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has sustained losses for the past two years and has been required to obtain additional financing to sustain operations. Despite these losses, management believes that recent developments within the business as well as the accessibility to potential capital alleviate any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2016, operations have continued to improve such that the Company’s cash intake from revenues is approaching the amount of cash used each month. Management currently expects funds generated from operations on a monthly basis to be equal to or greater than funds used in operations by the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations through the sale of common stock to third parties and related parties. The Company intends to sell stock via the Company’s current proposed Regulation A offering, a Regulation D offering and/or exercising of options that will be expiring in 2017 by certain members of Management. In addition, due to the improving operations, the Company is in talks with its commercial banking lender to expand the lending facility back to levels which it original was prior to being paid down. Furthermore, the Company has worked out repayment schedules with its short term creditors that will allow the company to repay them over the next 12 to 15 months. Substantial progress on repaying the short term creditors has already been made so far in fiscal 2017. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned operations; however, we do not anticipate reducing the operations to a level which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WorthPoint Corporation and Subsidiaries, WorthPoint (Ireland) Limited, WPGA Holding Corp, and GoAntiques, Inc. its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, recoverability of property and equipment and long-lived assets, valuation of stock options and warrants, and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  Level 1  - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

  Level 2  - Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 

  Level 3  - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

  

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

Fair-value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, related party advances, line of credit, notes payable and convertible notes. Fair values for these items were assumed to approximate carrying values because of their short term nature or they are payable on demand.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are non-interest-bearing. Accounts receivable primarily consists of credit card charges processed by the Company’s credit card processors but not yet deposited into a Company bank account and receivables related to display services for which payment terms are provided. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potential uncollectible receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $6,173 and $1,362 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company’s fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five (5) to seven (7) years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.

Content Databases

Content databases consists of a database for researching valuing antiques, art and collectibles, a detailed catalog of Maker's Marks and other identifying indicators, as well as access to a library of reference books and price guides from leading publishers that the Company has accumulated in its databases. These records have been digitized and indexed to allow subscribers to search and view the content online and include the costs to acquire or license the historical records, costs incurred by Company employees or by third parties to scan, key and index the content and the fair value allocated to content databases in business acquisitions. The Company generally amortizes content databases on a straight-line basis over 10 years after the content acquired. The amortization expense associated with content databases is included in cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Investment in Securities

The Company’s investments consisting of preferred shares of non-controlled entities are accounted for on the cost basis.  

 

In May 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 2,500,000 preferred shares in Search Find Sell, Inc. (“SFS”), which represented a 25% stake on a fully diluted basis, for $75,000 in cash and $175,000 in the form of a short term note, which was fully paid in 2015. The Company determined that the cost investment method was appropriate as management has been unable to excerpt significant influence over SFS from the time of the investment and the shareholders of SFS is concentrated to a large degree which nullifies the Company’s influence over SFS. Since the time at which the investment has made, SFS has not succeeded in its business plan and requires significant capital to continue to operate. The Company determined that there is an other than temporary impairment of the investment and accordingly, the full value of the investment was deemed impaired as of December 31, 2015. Thus, during the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a loss on investment of $250,000 in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment no less frequently than annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of any long-lived assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed. There were no impairment losses during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products and services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

 

Software Development Costs

The Company develops and utilizes internally developed software. Costs incurred are accounted for under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, whereby direct costs related to development and enhancement of internal use software are capitalized, and costs related to maintenance are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes its direct internal costs of labor and associated employee benefits that qualify as development or enhancement of internally developed software. These software development costs are amortized over the estimated useful life of the software which management has determined is five years once the software is placed in service. No development costs were capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. Development costs incurred in prior periods have been fully amortized.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their respective estimated lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment testing compares carrying values to fair values and, when appropriate, the carrying value of these assets is reduced to fair value. Impairment charges, if any, are recorded in the period in which the impairment is determined. To date, there have been no impairment charges recognized.

Deferred Rent

The Company accounts for lease rentals that have escalating rents on a straight-line basis over the life of each lease. This accounting generally results in a deferred liability (for the lease expense) recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has accrued $28,757 in accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

 

Preferred Stock

ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, includes standards for how an issuer of equity (including equity shares issued by consolidated entities) classifies and measures on its balance sheet certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.

 

Management is required to determine the presentation for the preferred stock as a result of the redemption and conversion provisions, among other provisions in the agreement. Specifically, management is required to determine whether the embedded conversion feature in the preferred stock is clearly and closely related to the host instrument, and whether the bifurcation of the conversion feature is required and whether the conversion feature should be accounted for as a derivative instrument. If the host instrument and conversion feature are determined to be clearly and closely related (both more akin to equity), derivative liability accounting under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, is not required. Management determined that the host contract of the preferred stock is more akin to equity, and accordingly, derivative liability accounting is not required by the Company. Management determined that the host contract of the preferred stock is more akin to equity, and accordingly, derivative liability accounting is not required by the Company. The Company has presented preferred stock within stockholders' equity.

 

Costs incurred directly for the issuance of the preferred stock are recorded as a reduction of gross proceeds received by the Company, resulting in a discount to the preferred stock. The discount is amortized to the accumulated deficit, due to the absence of additional paid-in capital, over the period to redemption using the effective interest method of accounting.

 

Dividends which are required to be paid upon redemption are accrued and recorded within preferred stock and accumulated deficit.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue related to sales of subscriptions, products and services when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Subscription revenues are derived by providing access to the Company’s technologies and content on its websites. Subscription fees are collected primarily from credit cards through the Company’s websites at the beginning of the subscription period. Subscription revenues are recognized ratably over the subscription period, ranging from one month to one year, net of estimated cancellations. Subscription revenues are not allocated to any free-trial periods the Company may offer. Amounts received from subscribers for which the performance obligations have not been fulfilled are recorded in deferred revenue.  As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, deferred revenue recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets related 100% to subscriptions.

 

The Company's display revenue is generated from the display of graphical, non-graphical, and video advertisements on the Company's websites. The revenue is recorded when the impression is delivered. Arrangements for these services generally have terms ranging from 30 to 60 days. Display revenue represents less than 5% of the Company's total revenues.

The Company maintains an allowance for future subscription cancellations and returns based on historical trends and data specific to each reporting period. The historical cancellation and returns rates are applied to the current period’s revenues as a basis for estimating future returns. Actual customer subscription cancellations and returns are charged against this allowance or against deferred revenue to the extent that revenue has not yet been recognized.

 

Cost of Revenues

Cost of subscription revenues consists of amortization of content databases, web server operating costs, credit card processing fees, personnel-related costs of web support, and outside service costs for website content.

 

Research and Development

We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. Our research and development costs consist primarily of internal salaries. We expense these costs as incurred until the resulting product has been completed, tested, and made ready for commercial use.

 

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were approximately $193,464 and $127,603 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

  

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees under ASC 718 Share-Based Payment. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period. The fair value of each stock option or warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

 

The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under ASC 505 Equity. The fair value of the option issued or committed to be issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to stock-based compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital.

 

Income Taxes

The Company applies ASC 740 Income Taxes.  Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their consolidated financial statement reported amounts at each period end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax expense for the period, if any, and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has established a full reserve against all deferred tax assets.

 

ASC 740 also provides criteria for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions.  A tax benefit from an uncertain position is recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination by the relevant taxing authority based on its technical merit.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be credit worthy.  Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.  At times, the Company maintains balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

The Company has two vendors that made up 22% and 23% of accounts payable as of December 31, 2016. One vendor as of December 31, 2015 made up 26% of accounts payable. The Company purchases over 95% of its content, content related services and data from the vendor with concentrations in both years. The loss of this vendor would have a significant impact on the Company’s operations.

 

Loss per Common Share

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and convertible securities. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had 1,858,232 options and 362,500 and 242,087 warrants outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Company’s convertible debt and preferred stock, as presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, are or may become convertible into common stock; however; due to the net loss in the periods presented, the effects of all common stock equivalents would be antidilutive and are, therefore, excluded from diluted EPS calculations.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations are subject to new innovations in product design and function. Significant technical changes can have an adverse effect on product lives. Design and development of new products are important elements to achieve and maintain profitability in the industry segment.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash,” to address the diversity that exists on how entities classify and present changes in restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. Other than limited guidance for not-for-profit entities, current GAAP does not include specific guidance on the cash flow classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this update now provide guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We do not think that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” to provide guidance on eight specific cash flow issues where current GAAP is unclear or does not have specific guidance. The cash flow issues covered by this ASU are: 1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; 2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; 3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; 4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; 5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; 6) distributions received from equity method investees; 7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and 8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The effective date and transition requirements of this ASU for public entities are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” as part of the Board’s Simplification Initiative. The areas for simplification in this Update involves several aspects of share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Variables such as timing of award settlements or expirations, changes in stock price over time, ultimate payout levels for awards with performance contingencies, shares cancelled before vesting, and the tax rules in effect at the time of settlement will impact both the timing and the amount of the tax deductions. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

 

The FASB Board issues ASU’s to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of ASC. The Company believes those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

Convertible Debt

From September 2013 to July 2015, the Company entered into convertible debt agreements totaling $837,500 convertible into Series A-1 Preferred stock at the sole discretion of the Company. The notes bore interest at a rate of 18% per annum if paid repaid in cash or 10% per annum if converted into equity, and compounded quarterly. The notes were due on the second anniversary of each note agreement. In July 2015, the notes were converted to Series A-1 Preferred Stock. The conversion price was set by the Board of Directors at $3.50 per share and the convertible debt was converted into 265,701 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock in full per the terms of the agreements. See Note 8 for related party portion of this debt.

 

Bridge Financing

Starting in May 2016, the Company raised convertible bridge financing (“Bridge Notes”) from both related parties and non-related parties, to fund operations and the Company’s capital raising efforts. As of December 31, 2016, $429,500 was raised, of which $369,500 was to related parties. The Bridge Notes bear interest at 10% per annum with a default rate of 13%, and are due on September 30, 2017. The Bridge Notes shall automatically convert into the Series A-1 Preferred Stock of the Company upon the later of one day after the expiration of the pre-emptive rights granted to certain of the Company’s stockholders pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Third Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement by and among the Company and purchasers of its preferred stock, and the maturity date of September 30, 2017.

 

For every $1,000 in Bridge Note, the holder receives 200 warrants to purchase common stock. Accordingly, 85,900 warrants were issued with the Bridge Notes, 73,900 of which was to related parties. The warrants were immediately vested, have a ten-year term, and an exercise price of $0.01. The Company calculated the relative fair value of the warrants issued with the Bridge Notes using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following range of inputs:

 

   December 31,
2016
 
Expected life (years)   10 
Risk-free interest rate   1.4 - 1.8%
Expected volatility   50%
Annual dividend yield   0%

 

The method of using variables is similar to those described for stock options in Note 7.

 

The relative fair valued, $35,580 was recorded as a discount to the note, with the discount being accreted up over the life of the note to interest expense using the straight line method due to the short term nature of the notes. Accretion of the Bridge Note discount was $12,190 during the year ended December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, $23,390 remains to be accreted through September 30, 2017.

In November 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved a one for six reverse-stock split, which also granted the board of directors the authority to elect not to file an amendment to the certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split, based on the results of Company’s proposed Regulation A (Tier 2) offering which was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to year end.  The Regulation A offering is ongoing and has not received the minimum amount of funding required to break escrow.  Accordingly, the board has not yet effectuated the reverse-stock split per the authority provided to them.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, 265,701 shares of Series A-1 were issued for the conversion of convertible debt. See Note 5. There were no such conversions in 2016.

 

Common Stock

We have authorized the issuance of 11,703,822 shares of our common stock, each share having a par value of $0.001.

 

Stock Options

During 2007, the Company adopted the WorthPoint, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).  The Plan provides for the grant of equity awards to our directors, employees, and certain key consultants, including stock options and restricted stock units to purchase shares of our common stock.  Up to 2,300,000 shares of our common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the Plan, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events. As of December 31, 2016, 441,768 shares of common stock remain issuable under the Plan.  The Plan is administered by our Board of Directors, and expires ten years after adoption, unless terminated earlier by the Board of Directors. 

 

During 2016 and 2015, the Company granted 0 and 191,751 options to various employees and contractors, respectively. Each option issued during these periods had a life of ten years; exercise prices ranging from approximately $1.05 to $1.20; and vesting terms ranging from immediately to four years. The Company expenses the value of the options over the vesting for the employees. For non-employees the Company revalues the fair market value of the options at each reporting period under the provisions of ASC 505 Equity. Because there were no significant changes in variables, other than the passage of time, the change in valuation related to non-employee options was negligible and inputs used were similar to those noted below for 2015.  The Company valued the options using the Black-Scholes pricing model on the date of grant using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected life (years)   N/A    6.25 
Risk-free interest rate   N/A    1.8%

Annual dividend yield   N/A    0%

 

The total value of the options issued during 2016 and 2015 was $0 an $21,775, respectively

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption for options granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of the Company's employee stock options.

 

The expected term of employee stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting terms of the options.

 

The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for options granted using the historical volatility of comparable public company's common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future stock option grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.

 

The dividend yield assumption for options granted is based on the Company's history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The Company estimated the fair value of common stock by comparing observable corporate transactions publicly disclosed which had similar attributes (subscriber base) to the Company, adjusting for debt, dilution, and marketability of common stock.

 

A summary of the Company’s stock options activity and related information is as follows:
