Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business

Propel Media, Inc. (“Propel”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on October 7, 2014. On January 28, 2015, Propel consummated a “reverse business combination” with Future Ads LLC (“Future Ads”), a California limited liability company, the former members of Future Ads (“Transferors” or “Members”), and Kitara Media Corp. (“Kitara”), a Delaware Corporation (the “Reverse Merger”) (See Note 3 – Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization). Future Ads and Kitara are wholly owned subsidiaries of Propel (together with Propel “Propel Media” or the “Company”).

Future Ads is a diversified online advertising company. Future Ads generates revenues through the sale of advertising to advertisers who want to reach consumers in the United States and internationally to promote their products and services. Future Ads delivers advertising through its real-time, bid-based, online advertising platform called Trafficvance. This technology platform allows advertisers to target audiences and deliver text, display and video based advertising. The Future Ads business and its Trafficvance platform provide advertisers with an effective way to serve, manage and maximize the performance of their online advertising purchasing. Future Ads offers both a self-serve platform and a managed services option that give advertisers diverse solutions to reach online audiences and acquire customers. Future Ads has over 1,400 advertiser customers and serves millions of ads per day.

Kitara is a digital media and technology company providing video solutions to advertisers, digital publishers and video content providers. With hundreds of millions of monthly video advertising views, Kitara delivers precise targeting and engagement for advertisers, accretive monetization and engaging video content for publishers, and expanded distribution for video content providers. Kitara’s internally developed proprietary technology platform PROPEL+ enables the automation and optimization of video advertising, video content and digital publishing spaces, while enhancing the video experience for consumers.

On January 28, 2015, Propel consummated the transactions (the “Transactions”) contemplated by (i) the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014, by and among Kitara, Propel, which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kitara, and Kitara Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Propel, and (ii) the Unit Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014 and amended as of December 23, 2014, by and among Kitara, Propel, Future Ads and the Transferors. Upon the closing of the Transactions, Propel became the new public company and Kitara and Future Ads became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Propel.

On January 28, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Reverse Merger, Propel, Kitara and Future Ads as “Borrowers” and certain of their subsidiaries as “Guarantors” entered into a financing agreement (“Financing Agreement”) with certain financial institutions as “Lenders,” Highbridge Principal Strategies, LLC (“Highbridge”), as collateral agent for the Lenders (“Collateral Agent”), and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as a Lender and administrative agent for the Lenders (“Administrative Agent”).

The Financing Agreement provided the Borrowers with (a) a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 at any time outstanding (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Loans”). The Loans will mature on January 28, 2019 (“Final Maturity Date”).

Following the Reverse Merger, the former members of Future Ads (See Note 3) owned 61.7% of the merged company and the former stockholders of Kitara owned 38.3% of the merged company.

As a result of the Reverse Merger, Future Ads’ former members acquired a majority of Propel’s common stock and both Future Ads’ and Kitara’s officers and directors became the officers and directors of Propel. For accounting purposes, the Reverse Merger has been treated as an acquisition of Kitara by Future Ads whereby Future Ads was deemed to be the accounting acquirer. The historical consolidated financial statements prior to January 28, 2015 are those of Future Ads. In connection with the Reverse Merger, the equity accounts of Future Ads have been restated on a recapitalization basis so that all equity accounts are now presented as if the member interest exchanged for shares of Propel Media common stock had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s cash on hand was $2,218,000 and the Company had a working capital deficit of $19,244,000. The Company recorded net income of $76,000 and $33,648,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 reflected a loss before income tax benefit of $625,000 and an income tax benefit of $701,000. The net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 reflected an income before income tax benefit of $1,623,000 and an income tax benefit of $32,025,000, consisting principally of the recording of deferred income tax assets of $31,386,000 on account of Future Ads change in income tax status to a C corporation on the effective date of the Reverse Merger (See Note 2). The Company has historically met its liquidity requirements through operations.

As of June, 30 2015, borrowings available under the Company’s credit facility (based upon the eligible borrowing base) was approximately $2,700,000.

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were principally in conjunction with the Reverse Merger, and consisted of proceeds net of principal repayments of $75,151,000 from the issuance of the Term Loan and borrowings net of repayments of $3,196,000 of the Revolving Loan. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of repayment of the revolving loan with Wells Fargo of $1,539,000, payment of deferred financing costs of $916,000, distributions to Transferors before the Reverse Merger of $1,674,000, distributions to Transferors in the Exchange of $80,000,000 and distributions to Transferors as a transaction fee reimbursement of $817,000.

Management believes that the Company’s cash balances on hand, cash flows expected to be generated from operations and borrowings available under the Company’s Revolving Loan will be sufficient to fund the Company’s net cash requirements through June 2016.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Income and Cash Flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Use of Estimates

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the accounts receivable allowance, the valuation of stock options, the obligations to the Transferors for the working capital adjustment, the determination of the fair value of the net assets of Kitara acquired in connection with the reverse business combination and the valuation of deferred income taxes.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $513,000 and $0, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, restricted cash is comprised of a certificate of deposit (“CD”) of $124,000, a cash deposit of approximately $89,000 to collateralize a letter of credit issued in favor of a landlord and $300,000 in cash in favor of a bank in order to collateralize certain purchase card obligations.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. The Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received.

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $435,000 and $2,000, respectively.

Intangible Assets

In connection with the Company’s Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded intangible assets for a video library and domain and trade name for Healthguru.com (See Note 5 – Intangibles).

Capitalization of Internally Developed Software

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to its software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage, including upgrades and enhancements representing modifications that will result in significant additional functionality, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life ranging from 24 months to 36 months. The Company evaluates these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no impairments.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of companies acquired. Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances lead to a conclusion that is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the entity exceeds the carrying amount, the two step quantitative evaluation is not necessary. Under the two-step quantitative impairment test, the evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill.

In the event the estimated fair value of the Company is less than the carrying value, additional analysis would be required. The additional analysis would compare the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the fair value amounts assigned to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit was acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit represented the purchase price. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss equal to such excess would be recognized, which could significantly and adversely impact reported results of operations and stockholders' equity.

The Company used both a discounted cash flows approach and a guideline companies’ model approach to estimate the current fair value of Kitara in connection with the reverse business combination of Kitara. The guideline companies’ method utilizes financial and market data on publically traded securities of companies engaged in business pursuits similar to those of Kitara, from which prevailing investor attitudes and expectations are developed. Differences between the publically traded companies and Kitara are analyzed and considered in order to develop representative market multiples, which, in turn, were applied to Kitara’s operating results to develop an indicative of value.

Deferred Financing Costs

Debt issuance costs (principally legal and other fees) are capitalized and are amortized over the term of the related loan using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs amounted to $67,000 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $114,000 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements. Deferred financing costs of $254,000 and $548,000 are reflected in other current assets and other assets non-current, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015.

Advertiser Deposits

Advertiser deposits consist primarily of prepayment amounts on deposit from advertiser customers and are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability which represents deferred revenue. These deposits to the extent unused are legally non-refundable if the advertiser elects not to continue with the Company’s services after 6 months of inactivity. The Company has not, to date, recognized the revenue of the unclaimed advertiser deposits.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated from multiple advertising channels, including (i) full-page display and transitional advertising units served on a cost-per-impression basis, (ii) in-text advertising units served on a cost-per-click basis, (iii) download-based partnerships on a revenue-sharing or cost-per-action basis, (iv) advertising display units on publisher networks and gaming media properties on a cost-per-mille basis, (v) advertising in the form of in-text and transitional display advertising units served on a cost-per-impression and cost-per-click basis through third party application developer partners, and (vi) third-party display and social media on a cost-per-action basis and video advertising based upon user views.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.”, (“ASC 605”). Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured and the amounts are fixed and determinable. The gross advertising campaign revenue is recognized in the period that the advertising impressions, clicks or actions occur, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. To date, the Company’s agreements have not required a guaranteed minimum number of impressions, clicks or actions. With respect to advertising campaign activities, the Company acts as a principal in that it is the primary obligor to the advertiser customer. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized in the period that the software gets distributed or when an advertiser customer generates a sale, click, impression or other agreed-upon action, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized on a net basis, as the Company acts as a third-party distribution partner in these transactions, and the payments to publishers are the contractual obligation of the advertiser customers. The Company bears transactional and execution risk. If the Company is not paid by the advertiser, the Company bears responsibility to pay the publisher for ads that have run.

The amounts on deposit from customers are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability and are included in either accounts payable or accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Cost of Revenues

Publisher expenses and other service costs represent the costs of acquiring advertising consumers for the Company’s publisher network, revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners, publisher costs of third-party networks and properties, transaction costs, and commissions to sales representatives for advertising revenue. The majority of the publisher expense represents marketing expenses to obtain new memberships for the Company’s gaming properties and revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners. Acquisition costs of new members are incurred on the date the member joins the gaming property or when a prospective member views an impression of the Company’s advertising, and are accordingly charged to earnings on those respective dates. The advertising revenue associated with a member is recognized as it occurs over the membership period. The Company allows an approved group of third party application developer companies to distribute the Company’s advertising to its members through a revenue-share arrangement. The Company expense collected revenue-sharing costs of in-text, full-page display and banner advertising units to members of third party application developer companies when the impression, click or action occurs. The Company also purchases key words on search engines in order to direct consumers to its websites.

Leases

The Company has two office leases with terms of approximately seven years and six years, respectively. The Company amortizes the total lease costs on a straight line basis over the minimum lease term. The Company leases computer hardware and software, and office equipment with varying lease terms.

Technology, Development and Maintenance

Technology, development and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses. The Company incurred research and development costs of $1,031,000 and $570,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1,920,000 and $1,188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

The Company’s concentration of credit risk includes its concentrations from key customers and vendors. The details of these significant customers and vendors are presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014;

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,		For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015	2014	2015	2014
The Company’s largest customers are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Revenue	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%
Accounts receivable	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate
The Company’s largest vendors are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Cost of revenues	11.8% of cost of revenue from one vendor	19.3%, 13.7% and 10.1% of cost of revenues, or 43.1% of cost of revenues in the aggregate	13.3% of cost of revenues from one vendor	16.6%, 14.7% and 10.5% of cost of revenues, or 41.8% of cost of revenues in the aggregate
Accounts payable	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company held cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales credits.

Business Combinations

For a business combination, the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, the identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values. In a bargain purchase in which the total acquisition-date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, that excess in earnings are recognized as a gain attributable to the Company.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets were recognized for the deferred tax consequences of differences between the tax bases and the recognized values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10.

Income Taxes

Effective January 28, 2015, the Company completed its Reverse Merger, whereby Future Ads (a limited liability company) was deemed to be the accounting acquirer of Kitara (a C corporation). The historical financial statements were those of Future Ads. From the date of the Reverse Merger, the Company’s results of operations began to be taxed as a C corporation. Prior to the Reverse Merger, the Company’s operations were taxed as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to January 28, 2015.

This change in tax status to a taxable entity resulted in the recognition of a net deferred tax asset based on the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets at the date of the Reverse Merger. This resulted in a deferred tax benefit of $31,386,000 being recognized and included in the tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This tax benefit was principally on account of a step up in basis of Future Ads for income tax purposes. There was no step up in basis for accounting purposes. The tax benefit was determined using an effective tax rate of approximately 39.9% for the period from January 28, 2015 (the date on which the tax status changed to a C corporation) to June 30, 2015.

In connection with the Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded deferred tax assets of $3,245,000, representing principally net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”).

The unaudited pro forma computation of income tax expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of income, represents the tax effects that would have been reported had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented. Pro forma income tax expense is based upon the statutory income tax rates and adjustments to income for estimated permanent differences occurring during each period. Actual rates and expenses could have differed had the Company actually been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes for all periods presented. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma amounts are for informational purposes only and are intended to be indicative of the results of operations had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Income Taxes, continued

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined to be more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be realized in future periods. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reduced. The following table provides a breakdown of the Company’s net deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2015:

Net operating loss carryforwards	$	3,075,000
Tax goodwill in excess of book goodwill – income tax basis adjustment of Future Ads		31,141,000
Property and equipment		(596,000	)
Other deferred tax assets		1,106,000
Deferred tax assets		34,726,000
Less: current portion		(142,000	)
Deferred tax assets – net of current	$	34,584,000

Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company’s tax returns for three years from the date of filing and the current year remains subject to examination as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s principal state income tax jurisdictions are California, New Jersey and New York.

Net Income Per Share

Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. The Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (28,655,000 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-based Compensation Policy

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The fair value of the Company’s common stock options are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected life. The Company calculates the expected volatility using the historical volatility for a pool of peer companies over the most recent period equal to the expected term and evaluates the extent to which available information indicate that future volatility may differ from historical volatility. The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company does not expect to pay or declare any cash dividends on its common stock. The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not experienced significant exercise activity on stock options. Due to the lack of historical information, the Company determined the expected term of its stock option awards issued using the simplified method. The simplified method assumes each vesting tranche of the award has a term equal to the midpoint between when the award vests and when the award expires. The Company expenses stock-based compensation by using the straight-line method.

Stock-based Compensation Policy, continued

The Company accounts for stock options granted to consultants using the accounting guidance included in ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505-50”). In accordance with ASC 505-50, the Company estimates the fair value of unvested stock options each reporting period using the closing price of the Company’s common stock.

Subsequent events

The Company has evaluated events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2015 through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that there were no subsequent events that required disclosure in these consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. On July 9, 2015, the FASB modified ASU 2014-09 to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. As modified, the FASB permits the adoption of the new revenue standard early, but not before the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. A public organization would apply the new revenue standard to all interim reporting periods within the year of adoption. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under U.S. GAAP, financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. Financial reporting under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued

The going concern basis of accounting is critical to financial reporting because it establishes the fundamental basis for measuring and classifying assets and liabilities. Currently, US GAAP lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The amendments are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our condensed consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3 - Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization

The Transactions and Merger Agreement

On January 28, 2015, Propel, Future Ads and Kitara consummated the Transaction.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Members exchanged all of the outstanding Future Ads limited liability company interests for (i) $80,000,000 in cash, (ii) 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, (iii) the right to receive performance-based “earn out” payments that has enabled the Members to receive up to an additional $40,000,000 in cash or stock consideration based on Future Ads reaching certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) levels during the 2015 to 2018 fiscal years, (iv) on or prior to June 30, 2016, $10,000,000 in cash and/or shares of Propel common stock, and (v) immediately after the payment of certain fees to Highbridge (as defined below) on or about the fourth anniversary of the closing, $6,000,000 in cash (the “Exchange”) (items iv and v in the aggregate, the “Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors”). The consideration payable to the Members is subject to a post-closing adjustment based on the working capital and indebtedness of Future Ads and the working capital of Kitara.  On April 29, 2015, the Exchange Agreement was amended to modify the post-closing adjustment payment date to April 10, 2016 or earlier at the discretion of the paying party. This amendment also allows for the party receiving the post-closing adjustment payment to defer payment beyond the April 10, 2016 date. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has recorded within obligations to Transferors, current, $3,337,000 as an estimate of the working capital adjustment.

The amounts paid to Transferors, as well as obligations incurred to the Transferors, were considered distributions of the recapitalized company, and as such, were charged to additional paid-in capital. The deficit in additional paid-in capital of $89,934,000 was transferred to accumulated (deficit) earnings.

The Company recorded the obligations for the Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors at fair value. Fair value was determined by recording the fixed obligations at their net present value, discounted at an interest rate of 10% per annum. The discount rate used was based upon the interest rate of the Term Loan. The Company is amortizing the discount utilizing the interest method over the periods for which future amounts are due. Upon the consummation of the Exchange Agreement, the Company recorded the fair value of the Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors of $12,696,000, reflecting a discount of $3,304,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded discount amortization of $324,000 and $544,000, respectively. The unamortized discount was $2,760,000 as of June 30, 2015.

Propel has agreed to reimburse the Transferors for all transaction expenses paid by Future Ads, its subsidiaries or the Transferors on or before the closing, and will assume all of their unpaid transaction expenses as of such date. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company paid $817,000 of these expenses to the Transferors and accrued an obligation to remit an additional $50,000 to the Transferors.

The Transactions and Merger Agreement, continued

The following represents the obligations to Transferors outstanding under the Exchange Agreement as of June 30, 2015.

	Obligations to Transferors
Amount due June 30, 2016	$	10,000,000
Amount due January 28, 2019		6,000,000

Total, net	$	16,627,000
Less: current portion		(12,433,000	)
Total, net long-term portion	$	4,194,000

As a result of the Transactions, the Members own 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, representing 61.7% of Propel’s outstanding common stock, and the former stockholders of Kitara own the remaining 95,884,241 shares of Propel common stock, representing 38.3% of Propel’s outstanding common stock. 

In connection with the Merger, the Company was deemed to have acquired the net assets of Kitara.

The following details the preliminary allocation of the purchase price consideration:

Cash	$	1,901,000
Accounts receivable		4,974,000
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		21,000
Property and equipment, net		1,138,000
Deferred tax assets		3,245,000
Other assets		172,000
Intangible assets		614,000
Goodwill		2,467,000
Accounts payable and accrued expenses		(4,866,000	)
Advertiser deposits		(29,000	)
Revolving credit facility		(1,437,000	)
Note payable – stockholder - current		(102,000	)
Note payable – stockholder – long-term, net		(98,000	)
Total	$	8,000,000
Purchase price consideration	$	8,000,000

The total fair value of the net assets of Kitara was determined by the Company to be $8,000,000 based on the consideration transferred.  The total consideration was based on the enterprise value of Kitara on January 28, 2015, based upon the Company’s valuation (See Note 2 – Goodwill). 

Of the amount of goodwill acquired in the Reverse Merger, approximately $995,000 is deductible for tax purposes. Furthermore, as part of the recapitalization of Future Ads, the Company recorded a “step-up” in tax basis, in which the Company recorded tax-deductible goodwill of approximately $84,000,000.

The Transactions and Merger Agreement, continued

The boards of directors of Propel and Kitara and the members of Future Ads, respectively, cited the following reasons for the merger of Kitara and Future Ads: (i) Future Ads provided a strong technology platform, diverse advertiser base, diverse distribution base and experienced team, history and culture and (ii) Kitara’s need to diversify its operations and the low likelihood of Kitara diversifying through other acquisitions of any scale in light of Kitara’s limited available cash and its low share price. In addition, Propel assumed Kitara’s existing 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and its 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2013 Plan”), and all outstanding stock options thereunder. However, Propel has amended the plans so that no further awards may be issued thereunder. Propel also assumed the other outstanding options and warrants of Kitara, in each case in accordance with the terms of the respective securities.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The following presents the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, as if (a) the Company had always been a taxable entity and (b) the Transactions had occurred as of January 1, 2015 and January 1, 2014, respectively, pro forma results are not shown for the three months ended June 30, 2015, since pro forma and actual results are the same.

	For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014
Revenues	$	20,981,000
Net income	$	3,508,000
Pro forma income per common share, basic and diluted	$	0.01
Pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted		250,010,162

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014
Revenues	$	41,902,000	$	52,594,000
Net income	$	967,000	$	6,073,000

Pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted		250,010,162		250,010,162

The pro forma combined results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have occurred had the Reverse Merger been completed as of January 1, 2015 or January 1, 2014, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results.

Promissory Notes

In connection with the acquisition of Kitara, the Company assumed two notes payable to a shareholder of the Company, who is Mr. Regular the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The first notes had a balance of $102,000 and was repaid immediately after the closing of the Merger. The second note has a face value of $200,000 with an annual interest rate of 1% that matures on January 1, 2023. The note will accrue interest and will be due at the time the note becomes due and payable.  As of June 30, 2015 the net outstanding balance on the note was $102,000 (net of a discount of $98,000). The Company calculated the discount at the acquisition date using a market rate of 10%. The note bears a below market interest rate of 1%. As such, the Company determined a market rate of 10% and recorded a discount which is being amortized over the remaining term of the loan. The market rate was determined based upon the interest rate of the Term Loan.

Note 4 - Financing Agreement

Upon the closing of the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan, in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 was borrowed in full and $7,500,000 was borrowed under the Revolving Loan. The proceeds of the Loans were used (a) to pay off and refinance the revolver obligation with Wells Fargo Bank which was assumed from Kitara in the Reverse Merger (b) to pay fees and expenses related to the Financing Agreement, (c) to finance the cash consideration under the Exchange Agreement and (d) for general working capital purposes of the Borrowers.

The obligations of the Borrowers under the Financing Agreement are secured by first priority security interests granted to the Lenders on all of the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ tangible and intangible property, including accounts receivable, intellectual property, shares and membership interests of the Borrowers (other than Propel) and the Guarantors.

The Financing Agreement provides for certain fees to be paid, including (i) a closing fee of $2,880,000 which was withheld from the proceeds of the Term Loan and was accounted for as an original issue discount and is being amortized to interest expense using the interest method over the term of the Term Loan and, (ii) a (“Deferred Fee”) of $12,500,000 payable to the lenders and due upon the fourth anniversary of the inception of the Term Loan. The Company is accreting the Deferred Fee as a finance charge over the term of the Term Loan. The Company recorded as interest expense accretion of the Deferred Fee of $846,000 and $1,435,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The balance of the accreted Deferred Fee of $1,435,000 is reflected within the Term Loan obligations on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2015.

In addition, the Company incurred legal and other fees of $916,000 in connection with the loans which has been accounted for as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the term of the loan as interest expense.

The Financing Agreement and other loan documents contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the Borrowers’ ability to, among other things, create certain liens, make certain types of borrowings and engage in certain mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, asset sales and affiliate transactions. The Financing Agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, if a change of control of Propel occurs. The Loans may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Finance Agreement.

The remainder of the Term Loan is due and payable on the maturity date, except in certain limited circumstances.

Subject to the terms of the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan or any portion thereof shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) rate (but not less than 1% and not more than 3%) for the interest period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion thereof) plus 9.00%.

Employment Agreements

On March 6, 2015, the Company entered into an employment agreement (each an “Employment Agreement” and collectively the “Employment Agreements”) with each of Jared Pobre, Robert Regular, Marv Tseu and David Shapiro (each an “Executive” and collectively the “Executives”).

Each Employment Agreement is for a term of three years, unless earlier terminated as provided in the agreement or unless extended by mutual written agreement of the Company and the Executive. If the Executive continues to work for the Company after the expiration of the term, his employment is on the same terms as the Employment Agreement, except that he is an “at will” employee and the severance provisions described below will no longer be in effect.

The Employment Agreements provide for base salaries of $250,000 for Mr. Pobre, $500,000 for Mr. Regular, $486,000 for Mr. Tseu and $320,000 for Mr. Shapiro. Each of the Executives are reimbursed for their reasonable business expenses, subject to an exception for certain costs of commuting for Mr. Tseu.

Each of Messrs. Pobre and Regular is eligible to earn an annual bonus based on reaching individual and Company performance objectives to be defined by the Company’s board of directors over a reasonable time frame. Mr. Pobre’s bonus is targeted at a percentage set by the Company’s board of directors. Mr. Regular’s bonus is targeted at 50% of his base salary. Each of Messrs. Tseu and Shapiro is eligible to earn bonuses during the course of each year of his employment based on reaching individual and Company performance objectives in accordance with the existing quarterly bonus program of Future Ads. Under the quarterly bonus program, at the end of each fiscal quarter, we will evaluate the financial performance of Future Ads and the performance of Messrs. Tseu and Shapiro and then calculate the bonuses for each Executive for such quarter.

The Employment Agreements provide that, in the event of a termination of an Executive’s employment by the Company without “cause” or by the Executive for “good reason” (each as defined in the Employment Agreements), the Company will pay him (i) an aggregate amount equal to 100% of his base salary, payable over the course of 12 months, subject to the Executive executing a general release of all claims against the Company, (ii) all valid expense reimbursements, and (iii) all accrued but unused vacation pay. In addition, all of Executive’s equity awards, including the options described above, will fully vest and be exercisable for one year following the termination of employment.

Each of the Employment Agreements restricts the Executive from disclosing confidential information concerning the business of the Company. The Employment Agreements for Messrs. Pobre and Regular also contain customary restrictive covenants relating to noncompetition and nonsolicitation, which run for the term of the Employment Agreements and until January 28, 2017.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business. In management’s opinion other than as described below, there are no such matters that are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or results of its operations.

Litigation

In December 2013, an action entitled Intrepid Investments, LLC ("Intrepid") v. Selling Source, LLC, et al., Index No. 65429/2013 was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. This is an action commenced by Intrepid to collect on a Junior Secured Promissory Note signed by Selling Source in the original principal sum of $28,700,000 (the "Note"). Kitara Media is not a signatory to the Note but it did sign an August 31, 2010 Security Agreement ("Security Agreement") pledging certain of its assets as security for the Note. At the time Kitara Media signed the Security Agreement, it was wholly-owned by Selling Source. On July 1, 2013, Kitara Media merged with K/N Merger Sub, with Kitara Media surviving the merger and becoming the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Accordingly, it is no longer wholly-owned by Selling Source, although it is still an affiliate of Selling Source. In the action, Intrepid seeks to foreclose on the security interest. Both Selling Source’s and Kitara Media’s obligations to Intrepid under the Note and Security Agreement were subordinate to obligations Selling Source had to two groups of prior lenders ("Senior Lenders").

The right of Intrepid to compel payments under the Note and/or foreclose the lien created by the Security Agreement was subject to an Intercreditor Agreement by and between the Senior Lenders and Intrepid. Under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Intrepid could not take steps to compel Selling Source to make payment on the Note or foreclose the Security Agreement so long as the obligations to the Senior Lenders remained outstanding. In addition, under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Senior Lenders had the right to have the lien released on any of the collateral pledge as security under the Security Agreement. In connection with the merger of K/N Merger Sub LLC and Kitara Media, the first priority Senior Lenders released the lien on Kitara Media’s assets which were pledged as collateral under the Security Agreement and the obligation of Kitara Media to Intrepid was released. In addition, Selling Source’s obligations to the Senior Lenders remains outstanding.

The second matter is Intrepid Investments, LLC v. Selling Source, LLC et al., Index No.: 654309/2013; Supreme Court of The State of New York County. This matter was originally limited to claims asserted by Intrepid against Selling Source regarding an earn-out calculation entered into between it and Selling Source, and confirmed by an arbitrator earlier this year. In August, 2014, Intrepid amended its complaint to include various breach of contractor claims against a variety of those defendants, including Kitara. The new defendants, including Kitara, answered the amended complaint on November 7, 2014, denying liability for all claims. On February 19, 2015, the Court entered an order granting Selling Source’s motion to affirm the arbitration results. On March 3, 2015, Selling Source filed a motion for partial summary judgment seeking dismissal of eleven of Intrepid’s remaining claims. The claims asserted against Kitara are not among those addressed in Selling Source’s motion.

The Company intends to defend itself vigorously regarding this matter. In any event, Selling Source has acknowledged an obligation to indemnify and defend Kitara Media from any liability to Intrepid arising out of the Note and Security Agreement. The parties have exchanged pleadings and Selling Source has provided documents and written interrogatory responses to Intrepid.

Note 8 - Defined Contributions Plans

The Company maintains a defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Plan”). Participating employees may defer a percentage of their eligible pre-tax earnings up to the Internal Revenue Service’s annual contribution limit. All full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan.

The Plan does not permit investment of participant contributions in the Company’s common stock. Company matching contributions to the Plan are discretionary. The Company recorded contribution expense of $51,000 and $53,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $113,000 and $109,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Recent Events

On October 10, 2014, Propel entered into (i) the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of October 10, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Propel, Kitara and Kitara Merger Sub, Inc. (“Kitara Merger Sub”) and (ii) the Unit Exchange Agreement, dated as of October 10, 2014, which was subsequently amended as of December 23, 2014 and April 29, 2015 (the “Exchange Agreement”), by and among Propel, Kitara, and Future Ads and the holders of all of the outstanding membership interests of Future Ads (the “Members”).

On January 28, 2015, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Exchange Agreement (the “Transactions”) were consummated. Upon the closing of the Transactions, Propel became the new public company and Kitara and Future Ads became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Propel.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Kitara, with Kitara surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Propel (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each outstanding share of Kitara common stock was converted into one share of Propel common stock.

In addition, Propel assumed Kitara’s existing 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan and 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan, and all outstanding stock options thereunder. However, Propel has amended the plans so that no further awards may be issued under such plans after the closing. Propel also assumed the other outstanding options and warrants of Kitara, in each case in accordance with the terms of the respective securities.

Immediately following the Merger and as part of a single integrated transaction, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Members (“Transferors”) exchanged all of the outstanding Future Ads limited liability company interests for (i) $80,000,000 in cash, (ii) 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, (iii) the right to receive performance-based “earn out” payments that will enable the Members to receive up to an additional $40,000,000 in cash or stock consideration based on Future Ads reaching certain EBITDA levels during the 2015 to 2018 fiscal years, (iv) on or prior to June 30, 2016, $10,000,000 in cash and/or shares of Propel common stock, and (v) immediately after the payment of certain fees to Highbridge on or about the fourth anniversary of the closing, $6,000,000 in cash (the “Exchange”). The consideration payable to the Members is subject to a post-closing adjustment based on the working capital and indebtedness of Future Ads and the working capital of Kitara.

Furthermore, Propel reimbursed the members for all transaction expenses paid by Future Ads, its subsidiaries or the Members on or before the closing, and has assumed all of their unpaid transaction expenses as of such date. Propel reimbursed the Transferors $817,000 in transaction expenses.

As a result of the Transactions, the Members own 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, representing approximately 61.7% of Propel’s outstanding common stock, and the former stockholders of Kitara own the remaining 95,884,241 shares of Propel common stock, representing approximately 38.3% of Propel’s outstanding common stock.

On January 28, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Transactions, Propel, certain of its subsidiaries (including Future Ads and Kitara) as “Borrowers” and certain other of its subsidiaries as “Guarantors” entered into a financing agreement (“Financing Agreement”) with certain financial institutions as “Lenders,” Highbridge Principal Strategies, LLC (“Highbridge”), as collateral agent for the Lenders (“Collateral Agent”), and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as a Lender and administrative agent for the Lenders (“Administrative Agent”).

The Financing Agreement provided the Borrowers with (a) a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 at any time outstanding (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Loans”). At the closing of the Transactions, the Term Loan was borrowed in full and $7,500,000 was made available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Loan, which was used in part to finance the cash consideration for the Exchange.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenues

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $1,526,000, or 7%, to $19,455,000 as compared to $20,981,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue was in part due to (i) the effects of a gradual shift of advertising demand to mobile and away from desktop, (ii) increased competition, especially with more programmatic advertising buying creating alternative choices for advertiser spend, and (iii) increased competitor activities resulting in increased ad saturation and a deterioration in user responsiveness to advertising.  Additionally, we are seeing:

● erosion of users from our third party distribution partners in the wake of changes implemented by major browser companies that limit our ability to distribute advertising through those channels.

● revenue impact from a decline in users as we implement a shift in user mix away from poorer performing inventory in favor of higher performing inventory, including users acquired through our own media buying efforts.

● revenue lag as advertisers recalibrate spend budgets that trail inventory shift to higher performing inventory.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $602,000 or 6% to $10,014,000 as compared to $9,412,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to additional direct marketing costs.

31

Gross Profit

Our gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $9,441,000 or 48.5% of revenues as compared to $11,569,000 or 55.1% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The lower gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to our increased direct marketing costs incurred in 2015 to develop our advertising consumer base.

Salaries, Commissions, Benefits and Related Expenses

Salaries, commissions, benefits and related expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $948,000, or 36%, to $3,550,000 as compared to $2,602,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to additional employees resulting from the reverse merger with Kitara and $405,000 of stock-based compensation expense.

Other Costs and Operating Expenses

Other costs and operating expenses (technology development and maintenance, marketing and promotional, general and administrative, and professional services) for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $757,000 or 55%, to $2,141,000 as compared to $1,384,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to additional technology and development costs of $461,000 for projects to enhance data analysis and business intelligence tracking; additional general and administrative costs of $23,000 principally due to overhead costs, (such as rent incurred for Kitara) and an increase in professional fees of $332,000, relating principally to legal and accounting fees incurred in connection with the reverse merger.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $116,000, or 36%, to $438,000 as compared to $322,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to additional assets acquired in connection with the reverse merger with Kitara.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $3,949,000 or 54% to $3,312,000 as compared to $7,261,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 17% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from 35% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in operating income was due principally to the decrease in gross profit of $2,128,000, as well as an increase of $1,821,000 in total operating expenses in connection with the reverse merger with Kitara.

Interest expense

Interest expense includes the accrued coupon rate of the loans plus amortization of original issue discount, deferred financing costs and the accretion of the premium on the $12,500,000 terminal fee due upon the maturity of the term loan. Interest expense was $3,937,000 and $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due to the Company having only minimal debt during three months ended June 30, 2014. The interest for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consists principally of $2,280,000 due to the coupon rate of the loans, $208,000 from the amortization of the original issue discount, $67,000 for the amortization of deferred financing costs, $324,000 for the accretion of the discount to the amounts due to Transferors, and $846,000 from the accretion of the premium on the terminal fee.

Adjusted EBITDA (A Non-GAAP Measure)

In addition to the results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we present adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net income and adding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, less interest income and non-recurring merger expenses. We believe that this non-GAAP measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. The non-GAAP measure presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Please refer to the table above for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the closest GAAP financial measure.

32

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $3,428,000, or 45%, to $4,155,000 as compared to $7,583,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Overall the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was due to a decrease in gross profit of $2,128,000, as well as increases in general and administrative expenses in connection with the reverse merger with Kitara, as well as an increase in professional fees incurred in support of the merger.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenues

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $4,704,000, or 10%, to $40,946,000 as compared to $45,650,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue was in part due to (i) the effects of a gradual shift of advertising demand to mobile and away from desktop, (ii) increased competition, especially with more programmatic advertising buying, and (iii) the adverse effects on publisher supply on account of tighter restrictions on publishers and related transparency with a corresponding impact on our revenue. Additionally, we are seeing:

● erosion of users from our third party distribution partners in the wake of changes implemented by major browser companies that limit our ability to distribute advertising through those channels.

● revenue impact from a decline in users as we implement a shift in user mix away from poorer performing inventory in favor of higher performing inventory, including users acquired through our own media buying efforts.

● revenue lag as advertisers recalibrate spend budgets that trail inventory shift to higher performing inventory.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $521,000 or 3% to $20,186,000 as compared to $20,707,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in revenue, additional direct marketing cost.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $20,760,000 or 50.7% of revenues as compared to $24,943,000 or 54.6% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The lower gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to our increased direct marketing costs incurred in 2015 to develop our advertising consumer base.

Salaries, Commissions, Benefits and Related Expenses

Salaries, commissions, benefits and related expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $1,076,000, or 18%, to $7,219,000 as compared to $6,143,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to additional employees resulting from the reverse merger with Kitara and $544,000 of stock-based compensation expense.

Other Costs and Operating Expenses

Other costs and operating expenses (technology development and maintenance, marketing and promotional, general and administrative, and professional services) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $2,155,000 or 83%, to $4,751,000 as compared to $2,596,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to additional technology and development costs of $732,000 related to additional projects to enhance data analysis and business intelligence tracking; additional general and administrative costs of $663,000 principally due to overhead costs, such as rent incurred for Kitara, and an increase in professional fees of $896,000, relating principally to legal and accounting fees incurred in connection with the reverse merger and the Company’s initial Form 10-K and Form 10-Q.

33

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $181,000, or 28%, to $823,000 as compared to $642,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to additional assets acquired in connection with the reverse merger with Kitara.

Operating Income

Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $7,595,000 or 49% to $7,967,000 as compared to $15,562,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased to 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from 34% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in operating income was due in part to the decrease in gross profit of $4,183,000 and an increase of $3,412,000 in total operating expenses in connection with the reverse merger with Kitara.

Interest expense

Interest expense includes the accrued coupon rate of the loans plus amortization of original issue discount, deferred financing costs and the accretion of the premium on the $12,500,000 terminal fee due upon the maturity of the term loan. Interest expense was $6,344,000 and $1,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due to the Company having no debt or interest in the six months ended June 30, 2014. The interest for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consists principally of $3,696,000 due to the coupon rate of the loans, $353,000 from the amortization of the original issue discount, $114,000 for the amortization of deferred financing costs, $544,000 for the accretion of the discount to the amounts due to Transferors, and $1,435,000 from the accretion of the premium on the terminal fee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

On January 28, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Transactions, Propel, certain of its subsidiaries (including Future Ads and Kitara) as “Borrowers” and certain other of its subsidiaries as “Guarantors” entered into the Financing Agreement.

The Financing Agreement provided the Borrowers with (a) the Term Loan in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 and (b) the Revolving Loan in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 at any time outstanding. The Loans will mature on January 28, 2019. As of June 30, 2015, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan was $78,031,000 and the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan was $3,196,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, Propel repaid $2,969,000 in principal and paid $3,412,000 in interest on the Term Loan and paid $231,000 in interest on the Revolving Loan.

34

At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan was borrowed in full and $7,500,000 was made available to the Borrowers under the Revolving Loan. The proceeds of the Loans were or will be used (a) to pay off and refinance the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Wells Fargo Credit Agreement”), dated as of November 1, 2013, by and between Kitara Media Corp. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as amended or otherwise modified prior to the Effective Date, and other existing indebtedness of the Borrowers, (b) to pay fees and expenses related to the Financing Agreement, the other loan documents and the transactions contemplated therein, (c) to finance the cash consideration for the Exchange and (d) for general working capital purposes of the Borrowers.

The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall be repayable in consecutive quarterly installments in equal amounts of $1,750,000 on the last day of each March, June, September and December commencing on March 31, 2015, except that the payment due on March 31, 2015 was $1,219,000. The remainder of the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans are due and payable on the maturity date, except in certain limited circumstances.

The Borrowers may borrow, repay and re-borrow the Revolving Loans prior to the Final Maturity Date, subject to the terms, provisions and limitations set forth in the Financing Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of advances may not at any time exceed the lesser of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

Subject to the terms of the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan or any portion thereof shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) Rate (but not less than 1% and no more than 3%) for the interest period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion thereof) plus 9.00%.

Subject to the terms of the Financing Agreement, each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of such Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR rate for the interest period in effect for such Loan plus 6.00%.

The obligations of the Borrowers under the Financing Agreement are secured by first priority security interests granted to the Lenders on all of the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ tangible and intangible property, including accounts receivable, intellectual property and shares and membership interests of the Borrowers (other than Propel) and the Guarantors.

The Financing Agreement and other loan documents provide for certain customary fees and other amounts to be paid to the Lenders at the closing of the Financing Agreement (approximately $3,000,000), during the term of the Financing Agreement (approximately $800,000) and on the fourth anniversary of the closing date of the Financing Agreement ($12,500,000).

The Financing Agreement and other loan documents contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the Borrowers’ ability to, among other things, create certain liens, make certain types of borrowings and engage in certain mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, asset sales and affiliate transactions. The Financing Agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, if a change of control of Propel occurs. The Loans may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

Future Liquidity and Cash Flows

The Company has historically funded itself through operations. As discussed above, during the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company issued new debt under the Term Loan which requires a quarterly principal payment of $1,750,000.  Management believes that the Company’s cash on hand at June 30, 2015 ($2,218,000), cash flows expected to be generated from operations (net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $3,755,000), and borrowings available under the Company’s credit facility (based upon the eligible borrowing base at June, 30 2015, there is $2,700,000 available under the revolving credit facility), will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2015, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than the post-merger integration of our financial functions, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization and Description of Business

Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business

Propel Media, Inc. (“Propel”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on October 7, 2014. On January 28, 2015, Propel consummated a “reverse business combination” with Future Ads LLC (“Future Ads”), a California limited liability company, the former members of Future Ads (“Transferors” or ''Members''), and Kitara Media Corp. (“Kitara”), a Delaware Corporation (the “Reverse Merger”) (See Note 3 – Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization). Future Ads and Kitara are wholly owned subsidiaries of Propel (together with Propel “Propel Media” or the “Company”).

Future Ads is a diversified online advertising company. Future Ads generates revenues through the sale of advertising to advertisers who want to reach consumers in the United States and internationally to promote their products and services. Future Ads delivers advertising through its real-time, bid-based, online advertising platform called Trafficvance. This technology platform allows advertisers to target audiences and deliver text, display and video based advertising. The Future Ads business and its Trafficvance platform provide advertisers with an effective way to serve, manage and maximize the performance of their online advertising purchasing. Future Ads offers both a self-serve platform and a managed services option that give advertisers diverse solutions to reach online audiences and acquire customers. Future Ads has over 1,400 advertiser customers and serves millions of ads per day.

Kitara is a digital media and technology company providing video solutions to advertisers, digital publishers and video content providers. With hundreds of millions of monthly video advertising views, Kitara delivers precise targeting and engagement for advertisers, accretive monetization and engaging video content for publishers, and expanded distribution for video content providers. Kitara’s internally developed proprietary technology platform PROPEL+ enables the automation and optimization of video advertising, video content and digital publishing spaces, while enhancing the video experience for consumers.

On January 28, 2015, Propel consummated the transactions (the “Transactions”) contemplated by (i) the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014, by and among Kitara, Propel, which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kitara, and Kitara Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), which was previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of Propel, and (ii) the Unit Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2014 and amended as of December 23, 2014, by and among Kitara, Propel, Future Ads and the Transferors. Upon the closing of the Transactions, Propel became the new public company and Kitara and Future Ads became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Propel.

On January 28, 2015, in connection with the closing of the Reverse Merger, Propel, Kitara and Future Ads as “Borrowers” and certain of their subsidiaries as “Guarantors” entered into a financing agreement (“Financing Agreement”) with certain financial institutions as “Lenders,” Highbridge Principal Strategies, LLC (“Highbridge”), as collateral agent for the Lenders (“Collateral Agent”), and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), as a Lender and administrative agent for the Lenders (“Administrative Agent”).

The Financing Agreement provided the Borrowers with (a) a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $15,000,000 at any time outstanding (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Loans”). The Loans will mature on January 28, 2019 (“Final Maturity Date”).

Following the Reverse Merger, the former members of Future Ads (See Note 3) owned 61.7% of the merged company and the former stockholders of Kitara owned 38.3% of the merged company.

As a result of the Reverse Merger, Future Ads’ former members acquired a majority of Propel’s common stock and both Future Ads’ and Kitara’s officers and directors became the officers and directors of Propel. For accounting purposes, the Reverse Merger has been treated as an acquisition of Kitara by Future Ads whereby Future Ads was deemed to be the accounting acquirer. The historical consolidated financial statements prior to January 28, 2015 are those of Future Ads. In connection with the Reverse Merger, the equity accounts of Future Ads have been restated on a recapitalization basis so that all equity accounts are now presented as if the member interest exchanged for shares of Propel Media common stock had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s cash on hand was $2,218,000 and the Company had a working capital deficit of $19,244,000. The Company recorded net income of $76,000 and $33,648,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 reflected a loss before income tax benefit of $625,000 and an income tax benefit of $701,000. The net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 reflected an income before income tax benefit of $1,623,000 and an income tax benefit of $32,025,000, consisting principally of the recording of deferred income tax assets of $31,386,000 on account of Future Ads change in income tax status to a C corporation on the effective date of the Reverse Merger (See Note 2). The Company has historically met its liquidity requirements through operations.

As of June, 30 2015, borrowings available under the Company’s credit facility (based upon the eligible borrowing base) was approximately $2,700,000.

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were principally in conjunction with the Reverse Merger, and consisted of proceeds net of principal repayments of $75,151,000 from the issuance of the Term Loan and borrowings net of repayments of $3,196,000 of the Revolving Loan. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consisted of repayment of the revolving loan with Wells Fargo of $1,539,000, payment of deferred financing costs of $916,000, distributions to Transferors before the Reverse Merger of $1,674,000, distributions to Transferors in the Exchange of $80,000,000 and distributions to Transferors as a transaction fee reimbursement of $817,000.

Management believes that the Company’s cash balances on hand, cash flows expected to be generated from operations and borrowings available under the Company’s Revolving Loan will be sufficient to fund the Company’s net cash requirements through June 2016.

Equity Incentive Plans

2014 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan

On October 9, 2014, Propel and its sole stockholder approved the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan, pursuant to which a total of nine percent of the fully-diluted shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the closing of the Transactions (or 26,172,326 shares) became available for awards under the plan upon such closing. Kitara’s stockholders approved the plan as of January 26, 2015.

2012 and 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plans

On May 14, 2012 and December 3, 2013, Kitara adopted the 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (“2012 Stock Option Plan”) and the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (“2013 Stock Option Plan”). The 2012 Stock Option Plan and 2013 Stock Option Plan provide for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based awards to, among others, the officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company.

Effective January 28, 2015, Propel assumed Kitara’s existing 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and its 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2013 Plan”), and all outstanding stock options thereunder. Propel has amended the plans so that no further awards may be issued under such plans after the closing.

On March 6, 2015, the Board of Directors granted options for the purchase of 5,860,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the Company’s employees.

The Black Scholes method option pricing model was used to estimate fair value as of the date of grants during 2015 using the following range of assumptions.  The simplified method was used to determine the expected life as the granted options were “plain-vanilla” options.

	March 6, 2015 Option Grants  Officers, Employees and Directors			March 6, 2015  Option Grant Consultants			March 23, 2015 Employee Option Grant			May 20, 2015 Director  Option Grant
Stock Price	$	0.55		$	0.55		$	0.55		$	0.55
Exercise Price	$	0.55		$	0.55		$	0.55		$	0.55
Number of Options Granted		15,460,000			4,650,000			1,000,000			350,000

Expected life (in years)		6.11			10.0			6.11			6.11

The fair value of stock options is amortized on a straight line basis over the requisite service periods of the respective awards. Stock based compensation expense related to stock options was $405,000 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $544,000 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and was reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2015, the unamortized value of options was $6,824,000. As of June 30, 2015, the unamortized portion will be expensed through March 2019, and the weighted average remaining amortization period was 3.2 years.

Financing Agreement [Abstract]

Financing Agreement

Note 4 - Financing Agreement

Upon the closing of the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan, in the aggregate principal amount of $81,000,000 was borrowed in full and $7,500,000 was borrowed under the Revolving Loan. The proceeds of the Loans were used (a) to pay off and refinance the revolver obligation with Wells Fargo Bank which was assumed from Kitara in the Reverse Merger (b) to pay fees and expenses related to the Financing Agreement, (c) to finance the cash consideration under the Exchange Agreement and (d) for general working capital purposes of the Borrowers.

The obligations of the Borrowers under the Financing Agreement are secured by first priority security interests granted to the Lenders on all of the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ tangible and intangible property, including accounts receivable, intellectual property, shares and membership interests of the Borrowers (other than Propel) and the Guarantors.

The Financing Agreement provides for certain fees to be paid, including (i) a closing fee of $2,880,000 which was withheld from the proceeds of the Term Loan and was accounted for as an original issue discount and is being amortized to interest expense using the interest method over the term of the Term Loan and, (ii) a (“Deferred Fee”) of $12,500,000 payable to the lenders and due upon the fourth anniversary of the inception of the Term Loan. The Company is accreting the Deferred Fee as a finance charge over the term of the Term Loan. The Company recorded as interest expense accretion of the Deferred Fee of $846,000 and $1,435,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The balance of the accreted Deferred Fee of $1,435,000 is reflected within the Term Loan obligations on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2015.

In addition, the Company incurred legal and other fees of $916,000 in connection with the loans which has been accounted for as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the term of the loan as interest expense.

The Financing Agreement and other loan documents contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the Borrowers’ ability to, among other things, create certain liens, make certain types of borrowings and engage in certain mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, asset sales and affiliate transactions. The Financing Agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, if a change of control of Propel occurs. The Loans may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Finance Agreement.

Term Loan

The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan shall be repayable in consecutive quarterly installments in equal amounts of $1,750,000 on the last day of each March, June, September and December commencing on March 31, 2015, except that the payment due on March 31, 2015 was $1,219,000. The remainder of the Term Loan is due and payable on the maturity date, except in certain limited circumstances.

Subject to the terms of the Financing Agreement, the Term Loan or any portion thereof shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) rate (but not less than 1% and not more than 3%) for the interest period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion thereof) plus 9.00%.

Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization

Note 3 - Reverse Business Combination and Recapitalization

The Transactions and Merger Agreement

On January 28, 2015, Propel, Future Ads and Kitara consummated the Transaction.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Members exchanged all of the outstanding Future Ads limited liability company interests for (i) $80,000,000 in cash, (ii) 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, (iii) the right to receive performance-based “earn out” payments that has enabled the Members to receive up to an additional $40,000,000 in cash or stock consideration based on Future Ads reaching certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) levels during the 2015 to 2018 fiscal years, (iv) on or prior to June 30, 2016, $10,000,000 in cash and/or shares of Propel common stock, and (v) immediately after the payment of certain fees to Highbridge (as defined below) on or about the fourth anniversary of the closing, $6,000,000 in cash (the “Exchange”) (items iv and v in the aggregate, the “Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors”). The consideration payable to the Members is subject to a post-closing adjustment based on the working capital and indebtedness of Future Ads and the working capital of Kitara.  On April 29, 2015, the Exchange Agreement was amended to modify the post-closing adjustment payment date to April 10, 2016 or earlier at the discretion of the paying party. This amendment also allows for the party receiving the post-closing adjustment payment to defer payment beyond the April 10, 2016 date. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has recorded within obligations to Transferors, current, $3,337,000 as an estimate of the working capital adjustment.

The amounts paid to Transferors, as well as obligations incurred to the Transferors, were considered distributions of the recapitalized company, and as such, were charged to additional paid-in capital. The deficit in additional paid-in capital of $89,934,000 was transferred to accumulated (deficit) earnings.

The Company recorded the obligations for the Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors at fair value. Fair value was determined by recording the fixed obligations at their net present value, discounted at an interest rate of 10% per annum. The discount rate used was based upon the interest rate of the Term Loan. The Company is amortizing the discount utilizing the interest method over the periods for which future amounts are due. Upon the consummation of the Exchange Agreement, the Company recorded the fair value of the Deferred Fixed Cash Payments to Transferors of $12,696,000, reflecting a discount of $3,304,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded discount amortization of $324,000 and $544,000, respectively. The unamortized discount was $2,760,000 as of June 30, 2015.

Propel has agreed to reimburse the Transferors for all transaction expenses paid by Future Ads, its subsidiaries or the Transferors on or before the closing, and will assume all of their unpaid transaction expenses as of such date. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company paid $817,000 of these expenses to the Transferors and accrued an obligation to remit an additional $50,000 to the Transferors.

The following represents the obligations to Transferors outstanding under the Exchange Agreement as of June 30, 2015.

	Obligations to Transferors
Amount due June 30, 2016	$	10,000,000
Amount due January 28, 2019		6,000,000
Post-closing working capital adjustment due April 10, 2016		3,337,000
Transaction fee reimbursement		50,000
Total, gross		19,387,000
Less: discount		(2,760,000	)
Total, net	$	16,627,000
Less: current portion		(12,433,000	)
Total, net long-term portion	$	4,194,000

As a result of the Transactions, the Members own 154,125,921 shares of Propel common stock, representing 61.7% of Propel’s outstanding common stock, and the former stockholders of Kitara own the remaining 95,884,241 shares of Propel common stock, representing 38.3% of Propel’s outstanding common stock. 

In connection with the Merger, the Company was deemed to have acquired the net assets of Kitara.

The following details the preliminary allocation of the purchase price consideration:

Cash	$	1,901,000
Accounts receivable		4,974,000
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		21,000
Property and equipment, net		1,138,000
Deferred tax assets		3,245,000
Other assets		172,000
Intangible assets		614,000
Goodwill		2,467,000
Accounts payable and accrued expenses		(4,866,000	)
Advertiser deposits		(29,000	)
Revolving credit facility		(1,437,000	)
Note payable – stockholder - current		(102,000	)
Note payable – stockholder – long-term, net		(98,000	)
Total	$	8,000,000
Purchase price consideration	$	8,000,000

The total fair value of the net assets of Kitara was determined by the Company to be $8,000,000 based on the consideration transferred.  The total consideration was based on the enterprise value of Kitara on January 28, 2015, based upon the Company’s valuation (See Note 2 – Goodwill). 

Of the amount of goodwill acquired in the Reverse Merger, approximately $995,000 is deductible for tax purposes. Furthermore, as part of the recapitalization of Future Ads, the Company recorded a “step-up” in tax basis, in which the Company recorded tax-deductible goodwill of approximately $84,000,000.

The boards of directors of Propel and Kitara and the members of Future Ads, respectively, cited the following reasons for the merger of Kitara and Future Ads: (i) Future Ads provided a strong technology platform, diverse advertiser base, diverse distribution base and experienced team, history and culture and (ii) Kitara’s need to diversify its operations and the low likelihood of Kitara diversifying through other acquisitions of any scale in light of Kitara’s limited available cash and its low share price. In addition, Propel assumed Kitara’s existing 2012 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and its 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2013 Plan”), and all outstanding stock options thereunder. However, Propel has amended the plans so that no further awards may be issued thereunder. Propel also assumed the other outstanding options and warrants of Kitara, in each case in accordance with the terms of the respective securities.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The following presents the unaudited pro forma combined financial information, as if (a) the Company had always been a taxable entity and (b) the Transactions had occurred as of January 1, 2015 and January 1, 2014, respectively, pro forma results are not shown for the three months ended June 30, 2015, since pro forma and actual results are the same.

	For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014
Revenues	$	20,981,000
Net income	$	3,508,000
Pro forma income per common share, basic and diluted	$	0.01
Pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted		250,010,162

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic and diluted		250,010,162		250,010,162

The pro forma combined results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have occurred had the Reverse Merger been completed as of January 1, 2015 or January 1, 2014, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results.

Promissory Notes

In connection with the acquisition of Kitara, the Company assumed two notes payable to a shareholder of the Company, who is Mr. Regular the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The first notes had a balance of $102,000 and was repaid immediately after the closing of the Merger. The second note has a face value of $200,000 with an annual interest rate of 1% that matures on January 1, 2023. The note will accrue interest and will be due at the time the note becomes due and payable.  As of June 30, 2015 the net outstanding balance on the note was $102,000 (net of a discount of $98,000). The Company calculated the discount at the acquisition date using a market rate of 10%. The note bears a below market interest rate of 1%. As such, the Company determined a market rate of 10% and recorded a discount which is being amortized over the remaining term of the loan. The market rate was determined based upon the interest rate of the Term Loan.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies

Operating leases

On December 10, 2008, the Company entered into a noncancelable lease agreement for an office facility expiring on August 31, 2014. On March 30, 2011, the Company amended the agreement to substitute the premises for a new location and to extend the lease term to July 31, 2018. The lease agreement for the new office facility provides for increases in future minimum annual rental payments. The agreement requires the Company to pay its portion of certain executory costs (real estate taxes, insurance and repairs).

In connection with the acquisition of Kitara, the Company assumed the operating lease that commenced on September 30, 2014 for Kitara’s existing office space. The lease is for a total of 10,000 square feet of space and has an initial lease term of 66 months with the Company occupying the initial 7,500 square feet of space on September 30, 2014 at an initial monthly rent of $22,000. The lease inception date was March 1, 2015 for the remaining 2,500 square feet of space at an additional monthly rent of $8,000. Under each lease component, the lease provides for $0 cash rental payments for the first five months of their respective terms.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, rent expense totaled $205,000 and $117,000 respectively, and $360,000 and $222,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The following is an annual schedule of approximate future minimum rental payments required under the operating lease agreements:

Years Ending December 31,	Amount
2015 (six months)	$	439,000
2016		927,000
2017		956,000
2018		836,000
Thereafter		472,000
	$	3,630,000

Employment Agreements

On March 6, 2015, the Company entered into an employment agreement (each an “Employment Agreement” and collectively the “Employment Agreements”) with each of Jared Pobre, Robert Regular, Marv Tseu and David Shapiro (each an “Executive” and collectively the “Executives”).

Each Employment Agreement is for a term of three years, unless earlier terminated as provided in the agreement or unless extended by mutual written agreement of the Company and the Executive. If the Executive continues to work for the Company after the expiration of the term, his employment is on the same terms as the Employment Agreement, except that he is an “at will” employee and the severance provisions described below will no longer be in effect.

The Employment Agreements provide for base salaries of $250,000 for Mr. Pobre, $500,000 for Mr. Regular, $486,000 for Mr. Tseu and $320,000 for Mr. Shapiro. Each of the Executives are reimbursed for their reasonable business expenses, subject to an exception for certain costs of commuting for Mr. Tseu.

Each of Messrs. Pobre and Regular is eligible to earn an annual bonus based on reaching individual and Company performance objectives to be defined by the Company’s board of directors over a reasonable time frame. Mr. Pobre’s bonus is targeted at a percentage set by the Company’s board of directors. Mr. Regular’s bonus is targeted at 50% of his base salary. Each of Messrs. Tseu and Shapiro is eligible to earn bonuses during the course of each year of his employment based on reaching individual and Company performance objectives in accordance with the existing quarterly bonus program of Future Ads. Under the quarterly bonus program, at the end of each fiscal quarter, we will evaluate the financial performance of Future Ads and the performance of Messrs. Tseu and Shapiro and then calculate the bonuses for each Executive for such quarter.

The Employment Agreements provide that, in the event of a termination of an Executive’s employment by the Company without “cause” or by the Executive for “good reason” (each as defined in the Employment Agreements), the Company will pay him (i) an aggregate amount equal to 100% of his base salary, payable over the course of 12 months, subject to the Executive executing a general release of all claims against the Company, (ii) all valid expense reimbursements, and (iii) all accrued but unused vacation pay. In addition, all of Executive’s equity awards, including the options described above, will fully vest and be exercisable for one year following the termination of employment.

Each of the Employment Agreements restricts the Executive from disclosing confidential information concerning the business of the Company. The Employment Agreements for Messrs. Pobre and Regular also contain customary restrictive covenants relating to noncompetition and nonsolicitation, which run for the term of the Employment Agreements and until January 28, 2017.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business. In management’s opinion other than as described below, there are no such matters that are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or results of its operations.

Litigation

In December 2013, an action entitled Intrepid Investments, LLC ("Intrepid") v. Selling Source, LLC, et al., Index No. 65429/2013 was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. This is an action commenced by Intrepid to collect on a Junior Secured Promissory Note signed by Selling Source in the original principal sum of $28,700,000 (the "Note"). Kitara Media is not a signatory to the Note but it did sign an August 31, 2010 Security Agreement ("Security Agreement") pledging certain of its assets as security for the Note. At the time Kitara Media signed the Security Agreement, it was wholly-owned by Selling Source. On July 1, 2013, Kitara Media merged with K/N Merger Sub, with Kitara Media surviving the merger and becoming the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Accordingly, it is no longer wholly-owned by Selling Source, although it is still an affiliate of Selling Source. In the action, Intrepid seeks to foreclose on the security interest. Both Selling Source’s and Kitara Media’s obligations to Intrepid under the Note and Security Agreement were subordinate to obligations Selling Source had to two groups of prior lenders ("Senior Lenders").

The right of Intrepid to compel payments under the Note and/or foreclose the lien created by the Security Agreement was subject to an Intercreditor Agreement by and between the Senior Lenders and Intrepid. Under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Intrepid could not take steps to compel Selling Source to make payment on the Note or foreclose the Security Agreement so long as the obligations to the Senior Lenders remained outstanding. In addition, under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Senior Lenders had the right to have the lien released on any of the collateral pledge as security under the Security Agreement. In connection with the merger of K/N Merger Sub LLC and Kitara Media, the first priority Senior Lenders released the lien on Kitara Media’s assets which were pledged as collateral under the Security Agreement and the obligation of Kitara Media to Intrepid was released. In addition, Selling Source’s obligations to the Senior Lenders remains outstanding.

The second matter is Intrepid Investments, LLC v. Selling Source, LLC et al., Index No.: 654309/2013; Supreme Court of The State of New York County. This matter was originally limited to claims asserted by Intrepid against Selling Source regarding an earn-out calculation entered into between it and Selling Source, and confirmed by an arbitrator earlier this year. In August, 2014, Intrepid amended its complaint to include various breach of contractor claims against a variety of those defendants, including Kitara. The new defendants, including Kitara, answered the amended complaint on November 7, 2014, denying liability for all claims. On February 19, 2015, the Court entered an order granting Selling Source’s motion to affirm the arbitration results. On March 3, 2015, Selling Source filed a motion for partial summary judgment seeking dismissal of eleven of Intrepid’s remaining claims. The claims asserted against Kitara are not among those addressed in Selling Source’s motion.

The Company intends to defend itself vigorously regarding this matter. In any event, Selling Source has acknowledged an obligation to indemnify and defend Kitara Media from any liability to Intrepid arising out of the Note and Security Agreement. The parties have exchanged pleadings and Selling Source has provided documents and written interrogatory responses to Intrepid.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Income and Cash Flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the accounts receivable allowance, the valuation of stock options, the obligations to the Transferors for the working capital adjustment, the determination of the fair value of the net assets of Kitara acquired in connection with the reverse business combination and the valuation of deferred income taxes.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $513,000 and $0, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, restricted cash is comprised of a certificate of deposit (“CD”) of $124,000, a cash deposit of approximately $89,000 to collateralize a letter of credit issued in favor of a landlord and $300,000 in cash in favor of a bank in order to collateralize certain purchase card obligations.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. The Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received.

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $435,000 and $2,000, respectively.

Intangible Assets

In connection with the Company’s Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded intangible assets for a video library and domain and trade name for Healthguru.com (See Note 5 – Intangibles).

Capitalization of Internally Developed Software

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to its software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage, including upgrades and enhancements representing modifications that will result in significant additional functionality, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life ranging from 24 months to 36 months. The Company evaluates these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no impairments.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of companies acquired. Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances lead to a conclusion that is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the entity exceeds the carrying amount, the two step quantitative evaluation is not necessary. Under the two-step quantitative impairment test, the evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill.

In the event the estimated fair value of the Company is less than the carrying value, additional analysis would be required. The additional analysis would compare the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the fair value amounts assigned to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit was acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit represented the purchase price. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss equal to such excess would be recognized, which could significantly and adversely impact reported results of operations and stockholders' equity.

The Company used both a discounted cash flows approach and a guideline companies’ model approach to estimate the current fair value of Kitara in connection with the reverse business combination of Kitara. The guideline companies’ method utilizes financial and market data on publically traded securities of companies engaged in business pursuits similar to those of Kitara, from which prevailing investor attitudes and expectations are developed. Differences between the publically traded companies and Kitara are analyzed and considered in order to develop representative market multiples, which, in turn, were applied to Kitara’s operating results to develop an indicative of value.

Deferred Financing Costs

Debt issuance costs (principally legal and other fees) are capitalized and are amortized over the term of the related loan using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs amounted to $67,000 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $114,000 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements. Deferred financing costs of $254,000 and $548,000 are reflected in other current assets and other assets non-current, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015.

Advertiser Deposits

Advertiser deposits consist primarily of prepayment amounts on deposit from advertiser customers and are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability which represents deferred revenue. These deposits to the extent unused are legally non-refundable if the advertiser elects not to continue with the Company’s services after 6 months of inactivity. The Company has not, to date, recognized the revenue of the unclaimed advertiser deposits.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated from multiple advertising channels, including (i) full-page display and transitional advertising units served on a cost-per-impression basis, (ii) in-text advertising units served on a cost-per-click basis, (iii) download-based partnerships on a revenue-sharing or cost-per-action basis, (iv) advertising display units on publisher networks and gaming media properties on a cost-per-mille basis, (v) advertising in the form of in-text and transitional display advertising units served on a cost-per-impression and cost-per-click basis through third party application developer partners, and (vi) third-party display and social media on a cost-per-action basis and video advertising based upon user views.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.”, (“ASC 605”). Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured and the amounts are fixed and determinable. The gross advertising campaign revenue is recognized in the period that the advertising impressions, clicks or actions occur, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. To date, the Company’s agreements have not required a guaranteed minimum number of impressions, clicks or actions. With respect to advertising campaign activities, the Company acts as a principal in that it is the primary obligor to the advertiser customer. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized in the period that the software gets distributed or when an advertiser customer generates a sale, click, impression or other agreed-upon action, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized on a net basis, as the Company acts as a third-party distribution partner in these transactions, and the payments to publishers are the contractual obligation of the advertiser customers. The Company bears transactional and execution risk. If the Company is not paid by the advertiser, the Company bears responsibility to pay the publisher for ads that have run.

The amounts on deposit from customers are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability and are included in either accounts payable or accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Cost of Revenues

Publisher expenses and other service costs represent the costs of acquiring advertising consumers for the Company’s publisher network, revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners, publisher costs of third-party networks and properties, transaction costs, and commissions to sales representatives for advertising revenue. The majority of the publisher expense represents marketing expenses to obtain new memberships for the Company’s gaming properties and revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners. Acquisition costs of new members are incurred on the date the member joins the gaming property or when a prospective member views an impression of the Company’s advertising, and are accordingly charged to earnings on those respective dates. The advertising revenue associated with a member is recognized as it occurs over the membership period. The Company allows an approved group of third party application developer companies to distribute the Company’s advertising to its members through a revenue-share arrangement. The Company expense collected revenue-sharing costs of in-text, full-page display and banner advertising units to members of third party application developer companies when the impression, click or action occurs. The Company also purchases key words on search engines in order to direct consumers to its websites.

Leases

The Company has two office leases with terms of approximately seven years and six years, respectively. The Company amortizes the total lease costs on a straight line basis over the minimum lease term. The Company leases computer hardware and software, and office equipment with varying lease terms.

Technology, Development and Maintenance

Technology, development and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses. The Company incurred research and development costs of $1,031,000 and $570,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1,920,000 and $1,188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

The Company’s concentration of credit risk includes its concentrations from key customers and vendors. The details of these significant customers and vendors are presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014;

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,		For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015	2014	2015	2014
The Company’s largest customers are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Revenue	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%
Accounts receivable	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate
The Company’s largest vendors are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Cost of revenues	11.8% of cost of revenue from one vendor	19.3%, 13.7% and 10.1% of cost of revenues, or 43.1% of cost of revenues in the aggregate	13.3% of cost of revenues from one vendor	16.6%, 14.7% and 10.5% of cost of revenues, or 41.8% of cost of revenues in the aggregate
Accounts payable	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company held cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales credits.

Business Combinations

For a business combination, the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, the identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values. In a bargain purchase in which the total acquisition-date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, that excess in earnings are recognized as a gain attributable to the Company.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets were recognized for the deferred tax consequences of differences between the tax bases and the recognized values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10.

Income Taxes

Effective January 28, 2015, the Company completed its Reverse Merger, whereby Future Ads (a limited liability company) was deemed to be the accounting acquirer of Kitara (a C corporation). The historical financial statements were those of Future Ads. From the date of the Reverse Merger, the Company’s results of operations began to be taxed as a C corporation. Prior to the Reverse Merger, the Company’s operations were taxed as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to January 28, 2015.

This change in tax status to a taxable entity resulted in the recognition of a net deferred tax asset based on the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets at the date of the Reverse Merger. This resulted in a deferred tax benefit of $31,386,000 being recognized and included in the tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This tax benefit was principally on account of a step up in basis of Future Ads for income tax purposes. There was no step up in basis for accounting purposes. The tax benefit was determined using an effective tax rate of approximately 39.9% for the period from January 28, 2015 (the date on which the tax status changed to a C corporation) to June 30, 2015.

In connection with the Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded deferred tax assets of $3,245,000, representing principally net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”).

The unaudited pro forma computation of income tax expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of income, represents the tax effects that would have been reported had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented. Pro forma income tax expense is based upon the statutory income tax rates and adjustments to income for estimated permanent differences occurring during each period. Actual rates and expenses could have differed had the Company actually been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes for all periods presented. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma amounts are for informational purposes only and are intended to be indicative of the results of operations had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented.

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined to be more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be realized in future periods. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reduced. The following table provides a breakdown of the Company’s net deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2015:

Net operating loss carryforwards	$	3,075,000
Tax goodwill in excess of book goodwill – income tax basis adjustment of Future Ads		31,141,000
Property and equipment		(596,000	)
Other deferred tax assets		1,106,000
Deferred tax assets		34,726,000
Less: current portion		(142,000	)
Deferred tax assets – net of current	$	34,584,000

Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company’s tax returns for three years from the date of filing and the current year remains subject to examination as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s principal state income tax jurisdictions are California, New Jersey and New York.

Net Income Per Share

Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. The Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (28,655,000 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-based Compensation Policy

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The fair value of the Company’s common stock options are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected life. The Company calculates the expected volatility using the historical volatility for a pool of peer companies over the most recent period equal to the expected term and evaluates the extent to which available information indicate that future volatility may differ from historical volatility. The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company does not expect to pay or declare any cash dividends on its common stock. The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not experienced significant exercise activity on stock options. Due to the lack of historical information, the Company determined the expected term of its stock option awards issued using the simplified method. The simplified method assumes each vesting tranche of the award has a term equal to the midpoint between when the award vests and when the award expires. The Company expenses stock-based compensation by using the straight-line method.

The Company accounts for stock options granted to consultants using the accounting guidance included in ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505-50”). In accordance with ASC 505-50, the Company estimates the fair value of unvested stock options each reporting period using the closing price of the Company’s common stock.

Subsequent events

The Company has evaluated events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2015 through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Management has concluded that there were no subsequent events that required disclosure in these consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. On July 9, 2015, the FASB modified ASU 2014-09 to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. As modified, the FASB permits the adoption of the new revenue standard early, but not before the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. A public organization would apply the new revenue standard to all interim reporting periods within the year of adoption. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under U.S. GAAP, financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. Financial reporting under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting.

The going concern basis of accounting is critical to financial reporting because it establishes the fundamental basis for measuring and classifying assets and liabilities. Currently, US GAAP lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The amendments are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our condensed consolidated Financial Statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Jun. 30, 2015

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Income and Cash Flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to the accounts receivable allowance, the valuation of stock options, the obligations to the Transferors for the working capital adjustment, the determination of the fair value of the net assets of Kitara acquired in connection with the reverse business combination and the valuation of deferred income taxes.

Restricted Cash

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $513,000 and $0, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, restricted cash is comprised of a certificate of deposit (“CD”) of $124,000, a cash deposit of approximately $89,000 to collateralize a letter of credit issued in favor of a landlord and $300,000 in cash in favor of a bank in order to collateralize certain purchase card obligations.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. The Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received.

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $435,000 and $2,000, respectively.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

In connection with the Company’s Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded intangible assets for a video library and domain and trade name for Healthguru.com (See Note 5 – Intangibles).

Capitalization of Internally Developed Software

Capitalization of Internally Developed Software

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to its software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage, including upgrades and enhancements representing modifications that will result in significant additional functionality, are capitalized. Software maintenance and training costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are recorded as part of property and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the software’s estimated useful life ranging from 24 months to 36 months. The Company evaluates these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no impairments.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of companies acquired. Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. An entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances lead to a conclusion that is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the entity exceeds the carrying amount, the two step quantitative evaluation is not necessary. Under the two-step quantitative impairment test, the evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill.

In the event the estimated fair value of the Company is less than the carrying value, additional analysis would be required. The additional analysis would compare the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the fair value amounts assigned to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit was acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit represented the purchase price. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss equal to such excess would be recognized, which could significantly and adversely impact reported results of operations and stockholders' equity.

The Company used both a discounted cash flows approach and a guideline companies’ model approach to estimate the current fair value of Kitara in connection with the reverse business combination of Kitara. The guideline companies’ method utilizes financial and market data on publically traded securities of companies engaged in business pursuits similar to those of Kitara, from which prevailing investor attitudes and expectations are developed. Differences between the publically traded companies and Kitara are analyzed and considered in order to develop representative market multiples, which, in turn, were applied to Kitara’s operating results to develop an indicative of value.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

Debt issuance costs (principally legal and other fees) are capitalized and are amortized over the term of the related loan using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs amounted to $67,000 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $114,000 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements. Deferred financing costs of $254,000 and $548,000 are reflected in other current assets and other assets non-current, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015.

Advertiser Deposits

Advertiser Deposits

Advertiser deposits consist primarily of prepayment amounts on deposit from advertiser customers and are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability which represents deferred revenue. These deposits to the extent unused are legally non-refundable if the advertiser elects not to continue with the Company’s services after 6 months of inactivity. The Company has not, to date, recognized the revenue of the unclaimed advertiser deposits.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated from multiple advertising channels, including (i) full-page display and transitional advertising units served on a cost-per-impression basis, (ii) in-text advertising units served on a cost-per-click basis, (iii) download-based partnerships on a revenue-sharing or cost-per-action basis, (iv) advertising display units on publisher networks and gaming media properties on a cost-per-mille basis, (v) advertising in the form of in-text and transitional display advertising units served on a cost-per-impression and cost-per-click basis through third party application developer partners, and (vi) third-party display and social media on a cost-per-action basis and video advertising based upon user views.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.”, (“ASC 605”). Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured and the amounts are fixed and determinable. The gross advertising campaign revenue is recognized in the period that the advertising impressions, clicks or actions occur, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. To date, the Company’s agreements have not required a guaranteed minimum number of impressions, clicks or actions. With respect to advertising campaign activities, the Company acts as a principal in that it is the primary obligor to the advertiser customer. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized in the period that the software gets distributed or when an advertiser customer generates a sale, click, impression or other agreed-upon action, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Download-based partnerships revenue is recognized on a net basis, as the Company acts as a third-party distribution partner in these transactions, and the payments to publishers are the contractual obligation of the advertiser customers. The Company bears transactional and execution risk. If the Company is not paid by the advertiser, the Company bears responsibility to pay the publisher for ads that have run.

The amounts on deposit from customers are recorded as an advertiser deposit liability and are included in either accounts payable or accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of Revenues

Publisher expenses and other service costs represent the costs of acquiring advertising consumers for the Company’s publisher network, revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners, publisher costs of third-party networks and properties, transaction costs, and commissions to sales representatives for advertising revenue. The majority of the publisher expense represents marketing expenses to obtain new memberships for the Company’s gaming properties and revenue-sharing costs to third party application developer partners. Acquisition costs of new members are incurred on the date the member joins the gaming property or when a prospective member views an impression of the Company’s advertising, and are accordingly charged to earnings on those respective dates. The advertising revenue associated with a member is recognized as it occurs over the membership period. The Company allows an approved group of third party application developer companies to distribute the Company’s advertising to its members through a revenue-share arrangement. The Company expense collected revenue-sharing costs of in-text, full-page display and banner advertising units to members of third party application developer companies when the impression, click or action occurs. The Company also purchases key words on search engines in order to direct consumers to its websites.

Leases

Leases

The Company has two office leases with terms of approximately seven years and six years, respectively. The Company amortizes the total lease costs on a straight line basis over the minimum lease term. The Company leases computer hardware and software, and office equipment with varying lease terms.

Technology, Development and Maintenance

Technology, Development and Maintenance

Technology, development and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses. The Company incurred research and development costs of $1,031,000 and $570,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1,920,000 and $1,188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

The Company’s concentration of credit risk includes its concentrations from key customers and vendors. The details of these significant customers and vendors are presented in the following table for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014;

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,		For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015	2014	2015	2014
The Company’s largest customers are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Revenue	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%	None over 10%
Accounts receivable	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate	None over 10%	15.2% and 12.8% of accounts receivable, or 28.0% of accounts receivable in the aggregate
The Company’s largest vendors are presented below as a percentage of the Company’s aggregate:
Cost of revenues	11.8% of cost of revenue from one vendor	19.3%, 13.7% and 10.1% of cost of revenues, or 43.1% of cost of revenues in the aggregate	13.3% of cost of revenues from one vendor	16.6%, 14.7% and 10.5% of cost of revenues, or 41.8% of cost of revenues in the aggregate
Accounts payable	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate	None over 10%	18.6%, 18.4%, 14.2% and 13.2% of accounts payable, or 64.4% of accounts payable in the aggregate

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and accounts receivable. Cash is deposited with a limited number of financial institutions. The balances held at any one financial institution may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company held cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales credits.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

For a business combination, the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, the identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values. In a bargain purchase in which the total acquisition-date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, that excess in earnings are recognized as a gain attributable to the Company.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets were recognized for the deferred tax consequences of differences between the tax bases and the recognized values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Effective January 28, 2015, the Company completed its Reverse Merger, whereby Future Ads (a limited liability company) was deemed to be the accounting acquirer of Kitara (a C corporation). The historical financial statements were those of Future Ads. From the date of the Reverse Merger, the Company’s results of operations began to be taxed as a C corporation. Prior to the Reverse Merger, the Company’s operations were taxed as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to January 28, 2015.

This change in tax status to a taxable entity resulted in the recognition of a net deferred tax asset based on the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the Company’s assets at the date of the Reverse Merger. This resulted in a deferred tax benefit of $31,386,000 being recognized and included in the tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This tax benefit was principally on account of a step up in basis of Future Ads for income tax purposes. There was no step up in basis for accounting purposes. The tax benefit was determined using an effective tax rate of approximately 39.9% for the period from January 28, 2015 (the date on which the tax status changed to a C corporation) to June 30, 2015.

In connection with the Reverse Merger with Kitara, the Company recorded deferred tax assets of $3,245,000, representing principally net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”).

The unaudited pro forma computation of income tax expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of income, represents the tax effects that would have been reported had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented. Pro forma income tax expense is based upon the statutory income tax rates and adjustments to income for estimated permanent differences occurring during each period. Actual rates and expenses could have differed had the Company actually been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes for all periods presented. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma amounts are for informational purposes only and are intended to be indicative of the results of operations had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented.

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined to be more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be realized in future periods. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reduced. The following table provides a breakdown of the Company’s net deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2015:

Net operating loss carryforwards	$	3,075,000
Tax goodwill in excess of book goodwill – income tax basis adjustment of Future Ads		31,141,000
Property and equipment		(596,000	)
Other deferred tax assets		1,106,000
Deferred tax assets		34,726,000
Less: current portion		(142,000	)
Deferred tax assets – net of current	$	34,584,000

Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company’s tax returns for three years from the date of filing and the current year remains subject to examination as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s principal state income tax jurisdictions are California, New Jersey and New York.

Net Income Per Share

Net Income Per Share

Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. The Company excluded potential common shares resulting from the exercise of stock options (28,655,000 potential common shares) and of warrants (6,363,636 potential common shares) as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-based Compensation Policy

Stock-based Compensation Policy

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The fair value of the Company’s common stock options are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected life. The Company calculates the expected volatility using the historical volatility for a pool of peer companies over the most recent period equal to the expected term and evaluates the extent to which available information indicate that future volatility may differ from historical volatility. The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company does not expect to pay or declare any cash dividends on its common stock. The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not experienced significant exercise activity on stock options. Due to the lack of historical information, the Company determined the expected term of its stock option awards issued using the simplified method. The simplified method assumes each vesting tranche of the award has a term equal to the midpoint between when the award vests and when the award expires. The Company expenses stock-based compensation by using the straight-line method.

The Company accounts for stock options granted to consultants using the accounting guidance included in ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505-50”). In accordance with ASC 505-50, the Company estimates the fair value of unvested stock options each reporting period using the closing price of the Company’s common stock.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. On July 9, 2015, the FASB modified ASU 2014-09 to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. As modified, the FASB permits the adoption of the new revenue standard early, but not before the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. A public organization would apply the new revenue standard to all interim reporting periods within the year of adoption. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under U.S. GAAP, financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. Financial reporting under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting.

The going concern basis of accounting is critical to financial reporting because it establishes the fundamental basis for measuring and classifying assets and liabilities. Currently, US GAAP lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The amendments are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our condensed consolidated Financial Statements.
