ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
General
Corporate Background
We are a Delaware public company traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (ticker symbol: SOMD). As of June 30, 2015, there were 95,280,257 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. The Company's office and principal place of business, research, recording and mastering studios are located at 6671 Sunset Blvd., Suite 1520, Hollywood, CA 90028, and its telephone number is (310) 657-4886. The Company also has an office at 7650 E. Evans Road, Suite C, Scottsdale, Arizona 85260 USA, and its telephone number is (480) 556-9303.
Business
AfterMaster, Inc., formerly Studio One Media, Inc.(“the Company") is an audio technology company located in Hollywood, California and Scottsdale, Arizona. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries include AfterMaster HD Audio Labs, Inc. and MyStudio, Inc.
The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the development and commercialization of proprietary (patents issued and pending), leading-edge audio and video technologies for professional and consumer use, including AfterMaster™ HD Audio Inc., ProMaster HD™ and MyStudio® HD Recording Studios. In addition, the company operates music recording and mastering studios.
Summary
The year ending June 30, 2015 has been transformative for the Company on many levels.
During the year, our proprietary (patents pending) AfterMaster semiconductor chip and accompanying software was completed pursuant to our joint development partnership with On Semiconductor ("ON"). Our new micro-size, low power, high output DSP chip and software will allow the Company and ON to provide audio solutions for OEM consumer electronics manufacturers worldwide on a competitive basis.
Our much awaited ProMasterHD on-line music mastering product is now in the final stages of beta testing and will formally launch during the fourth calendar quarter of 2015. ProMasterHD will provide hundreds of millions of independent musicians around the world an easy way to access affordable professional music mastering to make their music competitive and radio ready.
We also strengthened our executive and ownership group with the addition of Justin Timberlake and Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins two of the most respected and successful people in the music industry. Larry Ryckman, AfterMaster co-founder also joined the Company as President and CEO. Together they round off a world-class team of audio engineers and music industry specialists who represent one of the most formidable groups ever assembled in the audio technology industry.
During the year we also designed and successfully tested the first of our new AfterMaster branded consumer electronics products, which will be launching during the fourth calendar quarter of this year.
Our financial results reflect our best year on record with gains in a majority of our key financial sectors.
AfterMaster HD Audio
AfterMaster technology was created and developed pursuant to a multi-year, multi-million dollar development effort to make all digital audio sound substantially better. The Company's AfterMaster Audio Labs team is comprised of a unique group of award-winning leaders in music, technology and audio engineering including Rodney Jerkins, Larry Ryckman, Justin Timberlake, Paul Wolff and Shelly Yakus. www.AfterMasterHD.com/team.
AfterMaster is an internally-developed, proprietary (patents-pending) mastering, remastering and audio processing technology which makes any audio source sound significantly louder, fuller, deeper and clearer. AfterMaster is a groundbreaking technology which eliminates the weaknesses found in other audio enhancement and processing technologies while offering a much superior audio experience.
We believe that our AfterMaster audio technology is one of the most significant breakthroughs in digital audio processing technology and has the potential to create significant revenues for the Company. The broad commercialization of this technology is a top priority for the Company.
As the convergence of features on consumer electronics continues, it is becoming more difficult for leading consumer electronics companies to differentiate their products. We believe that AfterMaster provides a unique and significant competitive advantage for consumer electronics manufacturers by offering their customers a superior audio experience. AfterMaster technology can be incorporated into any audio capable device through the addition of an AfterMaster DSP chip or AfterMaster software. Such uses are intended to include phones (mobile, home, business and VoIP); headphones; televisions; stereo speakers; stereos (home, portable, commercial and automobile); and computers (desktop, laptop and tablets).
AfterMaster audio is also the only commercial audio enhancement technology available that is used for professional music mastering because it enhances the entire frequency range without distortion or changing the underlying intent of the music. The technology has been used to master music created by such artists as Lady Gaga, Nick Cannon, Janet Jackson, and many others. Further information on AfterMaster Audio Labs and AfterMaster products can be found at www.AfterMasterHD.com.
Financial highlights
The Company saw notable improvements in almost all key financial sectors including an increase in its cash position, increase in assets, decrease of current liabilities, decrease in accounts payable and an increase in revenue. Net cash used in operations increased as the Company continues to ramp up for its product launches.
Financial highlights for the year ended June 30, 2015, over the year ended June 30, 2014 include:
•
|
Net cash increased to $2,185,702 from $77,876.
|
•
|
Assets increased to $6,817,980 from $385,802.
|
•
|
Accounts payable and other accrued expenses were reduced from $951,563 to $344,451.
|
•
|
Revenues increased 60% to $302,600.
|
•
|
Current liabilities increased to $18,537,235 from $6,686,314. Excluding derivative liabilities and non-cash items, current liabilities were reduced $1,019,394 in 2015 to $5,722,294, as compared to 2014.
|
•
|
Losses including derivative liabilities and non-cash items, increased to $11,244,458 from $5,333,915. Excluding non-cash items, actual net cash used in operating activities increased to $2,808,837 from $1,582,712 reflecting additional costs for upcoming product launches.
|
The substantial increases in debt and losses were due to non-cash derivative liabilities of $12,814,941 and $2,069,699 which added to our debt and losses respectively. The derivative liabilities were created by calculating the share value of warrants, shares or options that were issued above the Company’s authorized capital ceiling of 100 million shares.
On August 28, 2015, at a special shareholders meeting, shareholders voted to amend the authorized capital ceiling to 250 million shares which extinguished all of the derivative liabilities including the $12,814,941 in debt and $2,069,699 in losses. The Company has filed the amendment with the State of Delaware and the adjustment will be reflected in the Company’s upcoming quarterly 10-Q filing for the three month period ending September 30, 2015.
Name Change
On August 28, 2015, at a special meeting of shareholders, shareholders approved to change the Company’s name from Studio one Media, Inc. to AfterMaster, Inc., to better reflect the business of the Company.
On September 10, 2015, the Company filed the name change with the State of Delaware and on September 24, 2015, received acceptance of the renewal. The Company has filed the amendment with FINRA and expects the Company’s name and stock symbol to change in the very near future.

Music Industry Icons Join AfterMaster
On November 19, 2014, music and entertainment superstar Justin Timberlake joined the Company as a co-owner and consultant. Mr. Timberlake is an internationally recognized actor, businessman and recording artist who enjoys recognition and credibility with consumers worldwide. The Company believes that Mr. Timberlake's involvement can maximize product value and accelerate the roll out of its audio products.
On July 30, 2015, renowned entrepreneur, music mogul and multiple Grammy Award winning producer, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins joined the company as a senior member of the executive team. Known around the globe as one of the most influential producers, songwriters and musicians in the history of popular music, Jerkins has worked with the likes of Sam Smith, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and many more.
ON Semiconductor/AfterMaster Audio Chip
In April of 2014, the Company entered into a multi-year joint development and marketing agreement with ON Semiconductor ("ON") of Phoenix, Arizona, to commercialize its technology through audio semiconductor chips. ON is a multi-billion dollar, multi-national semiconductor designer and manufacturer.
The agreement calls for ON to implement our AfterMaster technology in a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) semiconductor chip that will be marketed to their current OEM customers, distributors and others. We selected ON for its technical capabilities, sales support and deep customer pool.
In conjunction with ON, we have completed the development of an AfterMaster software algorithm that is designed to be used in semiconductor chips or as a standalone software product. We believe the sound quality from our algorithm provides a superior audio experience relative to other products on the market.
On April 29, 2015, ON and the Company announced the completion of an AfterMaster encoded semiconductor chip based on the ON BelaSigna 300 DSP chip. Now branded the BelaSigna 300 AM chip, it is one of the smallest, high power/low voltage DSP chips available. It is small enough to fit into a hearing aid but equally effective in any size device with audio capability.
Since entering into the agreement, both the Company and ON have identified a large number of prospective customers that will be key targets for this new and unprecedented technology. The algorithm and chips allow consumer product manufacturers an opportunity to offer a significantly improved and differential audio experience in their products without having to significantly change hardware and form factor designs. Through the combined relationships of the Company and ON, we hope to generate significant revenues for both parties through the sale of the ON/AfterMaster chips and software licensing. In September 2015, ON officially launched a broad sales effort to market AfterMaster/ON audio chips.
AfterMaster Consumer Hardware Products
The Company intends to complement its ON/AfterMaster DSP chips, ProMasterHD service and the licensing of its AfterMaster software with the design, manufacturing and marketing of unique consumer electronics hardware products branded as AfterMaster products. The prototypes for its first consumer electronic hardware product was completed in the second quarter of 2015 and will be unveiled in the fourth calendar quarter of 2015.
ProMasterHD
ProMaster HD is an online music mastering, streaming, and storage service designed for independent artists which utilizes proprietary audio technologies developed by AfterMaster. ProMaster HD will master a user’s uploaded music and allow them to compare up to 90 seconds of their original to the newly mastered songs so they can make a decision to purchase.
Tens of millions of songs are produced, distributed, played on the Internet each month around the world by independent artists. However, many of these artists lack the financial and technical means to master, or “finish” their composition, as a professional mastering session can cost over $500 per song. Now, with the ProMaster online platform, musicians can transmit their music directly to the ProMaster HD website, where it can be mastered with AfterMaster Technology for $34.99 per song.
ProMaster creates a compelling offering for those seeking to significantly enhance the quality of their music for personal use, or with intent to showcase their music in hopes of advancing their career aspirations. Based on the enormous addressable market for this product, we believe that ProMaster has the potential to generate significant revenues for the Company.
ProMasterHD.com was released in beta in the second quarter of 2015 and will be finalized and formally launched in the fourth quarter of 2015.
Intellectual Property and Licensing
The Company has been awarded five patents and six trademarks with numerous others pending. The Company has an aggressive intellectual property strategy to protect the AfterMaster and the related technologies it has developed. We also enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and consultants and confidentiality agreements with third parties, and we rigorously control access to proprietary technology.
On September 30th, 2014, the Company entered into a licensing and option term sheet for the licensing of its MyStudio related Intellectual Property for a total consideration of $1,250,000 in cash and $300,000 in stock of bBooth, Inc., payable over 18 months. To date, the Company has received $200,000 and has been issued 600,000 shares of bBooth currently valued at $1,800,000. The amount of this stock was valued at $1,800,000 because on September 3, 2015, bBooth’s stock was trading at $3.00 per share according to the historical stock on Nasdaq.com. The agreement also provides an option to purchase certain studio assets in the future. bBooth is a Los Angeles-based public company which intends to install interactive recording booths in the U.S. and internationally.
The consideration for the license of these assets related to the bBooth agreement entered into on November 10, 2014 of 600,000 shares of bBooth’s common stock was not received by the Company until September 3, 2015. The stock certificate is dated November 11, 2014, but remained in the possession of bBooth until September of 2015 when it was delivered to the Company’s possession. The amount of this stock was valued at $1,800,000 because on September 3, 2015, bBooth’s stock was trading at $3.00 per share according to the historical stock on Nasdaq.com ($3.00 x 600,000 shares = $1,800,000). According to ASC 320-10-25-1, equity securities with readily determinable fair values are subject to ASC 320 and as such are to be carried at fair value. When determining whether a security is in the scope of ASC 320, an entity should be careful not to look through the form of its investment to the nature of the securities held by an investee.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
You should carefully consider the risk factors and other uncertainties set forth below and all other information contained in this Report, as well as the public disclosure documents incorporated by reference herein. If any of the events contemplated by the following risks actually occurs, then our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties below are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those that are not yet identified or that we currently believe are immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.
History of Operations and Dependence on Future Developments.
We are dependent upon our management, certain shareholders and investors for fundraising. We expect additional operating losses will occur until revenues are sufficient to offset our costs for marketing, sales, general and administrative and product and services development. We are subject to all of the risks inherent in establishing an early stage business enterprise. Since we have limited operations, there can be no assurance that our business plan will be successful. The potential for our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered with an early stage business and the competitive environment in which we will operate. A prospective investor should be aware that if we are not successful in achieving our goals and achieving profitability, any money invested in us will likely be lost. Our management team believes that our potential near-term success depends on our success in, manufacturing, marketing and selling our products and services. As an early stage company, we are particularly susceptible to the risks and uncertainties described herein, and we will be more likely to incur the expenses associated with addressing them. Our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in early stages of development. These risks are particularly severe among companies in new markets, such as those markets in which we expect we will operate. Accordingly, shareholders will bear the risk of loss of their entire investment in our shares.
New Business Model.
We have a relatively new business model in an emerging and rapidly evolving market. Accordingly, this makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not continue or be successful. We will encounter risks and difficulties as a company operating in a new and rapidly evolving market. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could materially harm our business and operating results.
We Have Limited Capital and Will Need Additional Financing.
As of June 30, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $58,165,447 and negative working capital of $13,027,775. In addition, for the year ended June 30, 2015, we had a loss of approximately $11,180,318 and negative cash flow from operating activities of approximately $2,808,837. The Company has not declared dividends on its common stock, but the Company does have cumulative dividends in arrears through June 30, 2015, of approximately $648,236 for its outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
Revenues generated from our current operations are not sufficient to pay our ongoing operating expenses. Therefore, we will have to obtain additional funding from the sale of our securities or from strategic transactions in order to fund our current level of operations. In order to fund our working capital needs and our operational costs during 2015, we entered into eighteen (18) separate promissory notes, two (2) conversions of warrants for cash, and one hundred forty-nine (149) Share Purchase Agreements with individual accredited investors resulting in net proceeds of $5,128,632 to the Company.
The funds currently available to us are inadequate to fully implement our business plan. Until we have achieved revenues sufficient for us to break-even, we will not be a self-sustaining entity, which could adversely impact our ability to be competitive in the areas in which we do and intend to operate. We require additional funding for continued operations and will therefore be dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds through bank borrowing, equity or debt financing or asset sales. We expect to access the public and private equity and/or debt markets periodically to obtain the funds we need to support our operations and continued growth. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to us. If we require, but are unable to obtain, additional financing in the future on acceptable terms, or at all, we will not be able to continue our business strategy, respond to changing business or economic conditions, withstand adverse operating results or compete effectively. If we cannot obtain needed funds, we may be forced to curtail, in whole or in part, or cease its activities altogether. When additional shares are issued to obtain financing, current shareholders will suffer a dilutive effect on their percentage of stock ownership.
We require substantial capital to continue Aftermaster operations. Although we intend to engage in subsequent debt and equity offerings of our securities to raise additional working capital for Aftermaster operations, we have no firm commitments for any additional funding, either debt or equity, at the present time. Insufficient financial resources may require us to delay or eliminate all or some of our sales and marketing efforts to generate revenues for AfterMaster, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. There is no certainty that our expenditures will result in a profitable business as proposed.
Lack of Diversification.
Our current size and financial condition makes it unlikely that we will be able to commit our funds to diversify the business until we have a proven track record in our current markets. However, we do not have any plans nor have we identified any areas or markets in which we would seek diversification in our Company's business. We acknowledge that limiting our product offerings carries a risk of limiting revenues, which may impact our ability to continue operations.
Competition.
Aftermaster has developed an audio enhancement technology that it believes is unique and competitive in the audio enhancement industry. However, there are many more well established and financially successful brands in the audio enhancement industry, with more name recognition and financial resources such as, SRS and Dolby Labs. Although we believe that our technology differentiates us from competitor technologies, there is no assurance that we will be successful in gaining any consumer acceptance of our technology.
While we believe that the technologies behind AfterMaster and ProMaster HD are unique in the industry, other companies within the industry may develop or have developed audio enhancement technologies that are equal to or better than our technologies and could become our competitors. Potential competitors may have greater name recognition, access to financing, industry contacts and more extensive customer bases that could be leveraged to accelerate their competitive activity. Further, potential competitors may establish future cooperative relationships among themselves and with third parties to enhance their products and services in this market space in which we propose to operate. Consequently, competitors or alliances may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively with any competitor should they arise or that the competitive pressures faced by us will not harm our business. Such intense competition will limit our opportunities and have a materially adverse effect on our profitability or viability.
To protect our Company against competitors, we have embarked on an aggressive intellectual property protection program which we believe will be a significant barrier to market entry to potential competitors for our current product offerings. In addition, we strive to employ individuals who have long standing relationships and expertise in various segments of the entertainment, marketing, finance and communications industries, which we hope will help facilitate the negotiation of favorable partnerships, sponsorships and industry support for AfterMaster and ProMaster HD.
However, any investor must recognize that AfterMaster is unproven as a commercially viable audio technology and that many other companies dominate and are successful in licensing their audio products, which compete in the market within which AfterMaster is attempting to establish itself.
Performance - Market Acceptance.
The quality of our products, services, its marketing and sales ability, and the quality and abilities of our personnel are among the operational keys to our success. We are heavily dependent upon successfully completing our product development, gaining market acceptance and subsequently recruiting and training a successful sales and marketing force. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting, training or retaining the key personnel required to execute the business plan. Also, there can be no assurance that we can complete development of new technologies so that other companies possessing greater resources will not surpass it. There can be no assurance that we can achieve our planned levels of performance. If we are unsuccessful in these areas, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and forecasted financial results. The entertainment industry may resist our business plan and refuse to participate in contests and other sponsorship events. In that case we would be forced to fund and sponsor its own contests which would affect operating capital, liquidity and revenues. The music industry may also resist the adoption of our AfterMaster technology for new and catalogue releases.
Dependence on Intellectual Property - Design and Proprietary Rights.
Our success and ability to compete depends to a degree on our intellectual property. We will rely on copyright, trademark and patent filings as well as confidentiality arrangements, to protect our intellectual property locally and internationally. Studio One and its subsidiaries have filed numerous patent applications relating to MyStudio, AfterMaster and related technologies and processes, and while we believe the technologies, methods and processes merit patent protection, there is no assurance that any patent will be issued. If circumstances make it impossible to try to adequately protect our intellectual property, that intellectual property could be used by others without our consent and there could be material adverse consequences to us. We have filed several trademark applications and have received Notices of Allowance on four of those applications. Effective protection may not be available for our service marks. Although we plan to continue to register our service marks in the United States and in countries in which we do business or expect to do business, we cannot assure you that we will be able to secure significant protection for these marks. Our competitors, if any exist, or others may adopt product or service names similar to ours, thereby impeding our ability to build brand identity and possibly leading to client confusion. If circumstances make it impossible to adequately protect the name and brand, this could seriously harm our business.
Some of Our Markets are Cyclical.
Some of our markets are cyclical, and a decline in any of these markets could have a material adverse effect on our operating performance. Our business is cyclical and dependent on consumer and business spending and is therefore impacted by the strength of the economy generally, interest rates, and other factors, including national, regional and local slowdowns in economic activity and job markets, which can result in a general decrease in product demand from professional contractors and specialty distributors. For example, a slowdown in economic activity that results in less discretionary income for entertainment and music can have an adverse effect on the demand for some or all of our products. In addition, unforeseen events, such as terrorist attacks or armed hostilities, could negatively affect our industry or the industries in which our customers operate, resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Dependency on Foreign Components for our Products.
We do and expect to continue sourcing components for our products from both inside and outside of the United States, which may present additional risks to our business. International sourcing of components subject to various risks, including political, religious and economic instability, local labor market conditions, the imposition of foreign tariffs and other trade restrictions, the impact of foreign government regulations, and the effects of income and withholding tax, governmental expropriation, and differences in business practices.
We may incur increased costs and experience delays or disruptions in product deliveries and payments in connection with component manufacturers, thus causing a potential loss of revenues. Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory, and business climate could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Exposure to Product Liability Lawsuits.
Our results of operations may be negatively impacted by product liability lawsuits. While we expect to maintain what we believe to be suitable product liability insurance once we have commenced operations of services with the general public, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain this insurance on acceptable terms or that this insurance will provide adequate protection against potential liabilities. A series of successful claims against us could materially and adversely affect our reputation and our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Dependency on Key Suppliers and Product Availability.
Loss of key suppliers, lack of product availability or loss of delivery sources could delay product development, manufacturing and decrease sales and earnings of our consumer electronics products. While in many instances we have agreements, including supply agreements, with our suppliers, these agreements are generally terminable by either party on limited notice. The loss of, or a substantial decrease in the availability of, products from certain of our suppliers, or the loss of key supplier agreements, could have a material adverse effect on our consumer products business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, supply interruptions could arise from shortages of raw materials, labor disputes or weather conditions affecting products or shipments, transportation disruptions or other factors beyond our control.
Dependence on Intellectual Property - Design and Proprietary Rights.
Our success and ability to compete depends to a degree on our intellectual property. We will rely on copyright, trademark and patent filings as well as confidentiality arrangements, to protect our intellectual property locally and internationally. The Company and its subsidiaries have filed numerous patent applications relating to AfterMaster and other audio and video technologies and processes, and while we believe the technologies, methods and processes merit patent protection, there is no assurance that any patent will be issued. If circumstances make it impossible to try to adequately protect our intellectual property, that intellectual property could be used by others without our consent and there could be material adverse consequences to us. We have filed numerous patents and have received allowance for five of them. We have filed numerous trademark applications and have received Notices of Allowance on four of those applications. Effective protection may not be available for our service marks. Although we plan to continue to register our service marks in the United States and in countries in which we do business or expect to do business, we cannot assure you that we will be able to secure significant protection for these marks. Our competitors, if any exist, or others may adopt product or service names similar to ours, thereby impeding our ability to build brand identity and possibly leading to client confusion. If circumstances make it impossible to adequately protect the name and brand, this could seriously harm our business.
Fluctuations in Cost of Raw Materials.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by fluctuations in the cost of raw materials. The manufacturing process is subject to world commodity pricing for some of the raw materials used in the manufacture of our consumer electronics products. Such raw materials are often subject to price fluctuations, frequently due to factors beyond our control, including changes in supply and demand, general U.S. and international economic conditions, labor costs, competition, and government regulation. Inflationary and other increases in the costs of raw materials have occurred in the past and may recur in the future. Any significant increase in the cost of raw materials could reduce our profitability and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Regulatory Factors.
Our business model includes a component involving the Internet. As such, we are subject to a number of foreign and domestic laws and regulations that effect business on the Internet. We must contend with laws and regulations relating to user privacy, freedom of expression, content, advertising, information security and intellectual property rights of others. Possible future consumer legislation, regulations and actions could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions and delays in the activities undertaken in connection with our business, the extent of which cannot be predicted.
The exact effect of such legislation cannot be predicted until it is proposed. Terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact your investment. We will engage in common equity, debt, and/or preferred stock financings in the future. Your rights and the value of your investment in Preferred or Common Stock could be reduced. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impacts operating results.
Shares of our Preferred Stock may be issued in series from time to time with such designations, rights, preferences, and limitations as needed to raise capital. The terms of Preferred stock could be more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of Common Stock.
In addition, if we need to raise more equity capital from the sale of common or preferred stock, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, and possibly more, favorable than the terms of your investment. Shares of Common Stock which we sell could be sold into the market, which could adversely affect the market price.
Rapid Technological Change.
The industries in which we operate are characterized by rapid technological change that requires us to implement new technologies on an ongoing basis. Our future will depend upon our ability to successfully implement new technologies in a rapidly changing technological environment. We will likely require additional capital to develop new technologies to meet changing customer demands. Moreover, expenditures for technology and product development are generally made before the commercial viability for such developments can be assured. As a result, we cannot assure that we will successfully implement new technologies, that any implementations will be well received by customers, or that we will realize a return on the capital expended to develop such technology.
Effect of Fluctuations in Operations on the Price of Common Stock.
Our future operating results may fluctuate and cause the price of our Common Stock to decline, which could result in substantial losses for investors. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to predict accurately our future operations. We expect that our operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. If our operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price of our Common Stock could decline significantly. The factors that could cause our operating results to fluctuate include, but are not limited to:
|
●
|
Ability to broadly commercialize and expand AfterMaster and/or ProMaster HD
|
|
●
|
Changes in entertainment technology;
|
|
●
|
Availability and cost of technology and marketing personnel;
|
|
●
|
Our ability to establish and maintain key relationships with industry partners;
|
|
●
|
The amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to maintaining our business, operations, and infrastructure; and
|
|
●
|
General economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the entertainment industry.
|
These and other external factors have caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our Common Stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares of Common Stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our Common Stock. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If securities class action litigation were to be brought against us, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could hurt our business.
Our Common Stock is Subject to Penny Stock Regulations.
Our Common Stock is subject to regulations of the SEC relating to the market for penny stocks. These regulations generally require that a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith be delivered to purchasers of penny stocks and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The regulations applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our Common Stock and could limit your ability to sell your securities in the secondary market.
Uncertainty as a Going Concern.
Our future existence remains uncertain and the report of our independent auditors on our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2015 includes an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern. We have suffered substantial losses from operations and require additional financing. Ultimately we need to generate additional revenues and attain profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop commercially viable products or an effective marketing system. Even if we are able to develop commercially viable products, there is no assurance that we will be able to attain profitable operations.
Dilution; Dilutive Effect of Future Transactions.
As of June 30, 2015, we had 95,280,257 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, issued and outstanding. We had options outstanding that would permit, if exercised, the issuance of 25,000 additional shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.15. We may also issue further shares to certain of our management, directors, officers, employees and consultants in the immediate future. We also had 1,140,044 shares of various classes of Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding, which can be converted to 1,247,092 shares of Common Stock. We had outstanding convertible debt with a face value of $4,497,400, which can be converted into approximately 11,923,792 shares of Common Stock. In addition, we had warrants outstanding that would permit, if exercised, the issuance of 22,554,165 additional shares of Common Stock at an average exercise price of $0.44. Issuing additional shares will result in further dilution to existing shareholders, which could be significant; meaning your percentage ownership of any such merged entity will be significantly less than your percentage ownership in us. If we issue additional shares either outright or through any future options or warrants programs or requires additional financing, further dilution in value and in the percentage ownership represented by the purchaser’s investment will occur.
Restrictions on Transfer - No Public Market for Preferred Shares or Restricted Common Shares.
Our shares of Common Stock are traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board System (OTCQB) under the ticker symbol SOMD. However, for shares that have been issued and are restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), there is presently no public or private market for such shares. Such shares may only be offered or sold pursuant to registration under or an exemption from the Act and have not been registered under the Act, as amended, or any State securities laws and would be issued under Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
Expect to Incur Losses for the Foreseeable Future.
We expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future and we may never become profitable. Our business model requires that we obtain revenues from our online music mastering service, ProMaster HD, or by licensing our AfterMaster HD audio and selling AfterMaster HD chip proprietary technology to consumer device manufacturers. There are no assurances that significant revenues from ProMaster and/or AfterMaster necessary for the Company to become break-even will occur. We expect our expenses to increase significantly as we continue to develop the infrastructure necessary to fully implement our business strategy. Our expenses will continue to increase as we: hire additional employees; implement our marketing plans; pursue further research and development; expand our information technology systems; and lease and purchase more space to accommodate our operations.
Costs associated with designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing and developing the infrastructure we will need to support our customers will depend upon many factors, including the growth-rate of our online user base and the amount of engineering expertise needed to maintain and build our IP portfolio. Therefore, we cannot now determine the amount by which our expenses will increase as we grow.
Possible Claims That the Company Has Violated Intellectual Property Rights of Others.
We are not subject to any dispute, claim or lawsuit or threatened lawsuit alleging the violation of intellectual property rights of a third party. We believe AfterMaster and ProMaster HD are not in violation of any patents claimed by others. To the extent that the Company is ever alleged to have violated a patent or other intellectual property right of a third party, it may be prevented from operating its business as planned, and it may be required to pay damages, to obtain a license, if available, to use the patent or other right or to use a non-infringing method, if possible, to accomplish its objectives. Any of these claims, with or without merit, could subject us to costly litigation and the diversion of our technical and management personnel. If we incur costly litigation and our personnel are not effectively deployed, the expenses and losses incurred will increase, and our profits, if any, will decrease.
Business Plans and Operational Structure May Change.
We continually analyze our business plans and operations in light of market conditions and developments. As a result of our ongoing analyses, we may decide to make substantial changes in our business plan and organization. In the future, as we continue our internal analyses and as market conditions and our available capital change, we may decide to make organizational changes and/or alter some or all of our overall business plans.
Reliance on Management.
We believe that our present management has the experience and ability to successfully implement our business plans for the foreseeable future. However, it is likely that we will continue to add to our management and therefore will recruit additional persons to key management positions in the future. Should we be unsuccessful in recruiting persons to fill the key positions or in the event any of these individuals should cease to be affiliated with us for any reason before qualified replacements can be hired, there could be material adverse effects on our business and prospects. Each officer, director, and other key personnel has or will have an employment agreement with us which will contain provisions dealing with confidentiality of trade secrets, ownership of patents, copyrights and other work product, and non-competition.
Nonetheless, there can be no assurance that these personnel will remain employed for the entire duration of the respective terms of such agreements or that any employee will not breach covenants and obligations owed to us. In addition, all management decisions will be made exclusively by our officers and directors. Investors will only have rights associated with minority ownership interest rights to make decisions that affect the Company. Our success, to a large extent, will depend on the quality of our directors, officers and senior management.
Inability to Attract and Retain Qualified Personnel.
Our future success depends in significant part on its ability to attract and retain key management, technical and marketing personnel. Competition for highly qualified professional, technical, business development, and management and marketing personnel is intense. We may experience difficulty in attracting new personnel, may not be able to hire the necessary personnel to implement our business strategy, or we may need to pay higher compensation for employees than we currently expect. A shortage in the availability of required personnel could limit our ability to grow. We cannot assure you that we will succeed in attracting and retaining the personnel we need to grow.
Inability to Manage Rapid Growth.
We expect to grow rapidly. Rapid growth often places considerable operational, managerial and financial strain on a business. To successfully manage rapid growth, we must accurately project its rate of growth and:
|
●
|
Rapidly improve, upgrade and expand our business infrastructure;
|
|
●
|
Deliver our product and services on a timely basis;
|
|
●
|
Maintain levels of service expected by clients and customers;
|
|
●
|
Maintain appropriate levels of staffing;
|
|
●
|
Maintain adequate levels of liquidity; and
|
|
●
|
Expand and upgrade our technology, transaction processing systems and network hardware or software or find third parties to provide these services.
|
Our business will suffer if we are unable to successfully manage our growth.
Dividend Policy.
There can be no assurance that our operations will result in future significant revenues or any level of profitability. We have not, and do not, anticipate paying cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain all future earnings and cash flows, if any, to finance our operations and for general corporate purposes. Any future determination as to the payment of cash dividends will be at our Board of Directors’ discretion and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, current and anticipated cash needs, plans for expansion and other factors that our Board of Directors considers relevant.
Conflicts of Interest.
Existing and future officers and directors may have other interests to which they devote time, either individually or through partnerships and corporations in which they have an interest, hold an office, or serve on boards of directors, and each may continue to do so. As a result, certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Company and its officers and/or directors that may not be susceptible to resolution. All potential conflicts of interest will be resolved only through exercise by the directors of such judgment as is consistent with their fiduciary duties to the Company, and it is the intention of management to minimize any potential conflicts of interest.
Loss of Services of Key Members of Our Senior Management Team.
Our future success depends in a large part upon the continued services of key members of our senior management team.
These persons are critical to the overall management of AfterMaster as well as the development of our technology, our culture and our strategic direction. We do not maintain any key-person life insurance policies. The loss of any of our management or key personnel could seriously harm our business.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
None.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES.
We lease offices in Hollywood, California for corporate, research, engineering and mastering services. The lease expires on December 31, 2017. The total lease expense for the facility is approximately $8,670 per month, and the total remaining obligations under these leases at June 30, 2015 were approximately $260,100.
Pursuant to a lease originally dated January, 2006, we currently occupy approximately 11,800 square feet of office and warehouse space located at 7650 E. Evans Rd., Suite C, Scottsdale, Arizona on a month-by month basis. The total lease expense is approximately $9,609 per month, payable in cash and Common Stock of the Company.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company may become involved in certain legal proceedings and claims which arise in the normal course of business. The Company is not a party to any litigation. To the best of the knowledge of our management, there are no material litigation matters pending or threatened against us.
In November 2012, the Company entered into a finance agreement totaling $100,000 by its former CFO. Subsequently, the Company disagreed on the validity and terms of the agreement. The Lender filed suit in the state court in Dade County, Florida, seeking to enforce the agreement. The Company vigorously opposed the litigation and it was settled on for $17,500 on August 6, 2015.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
On August 28, 2015, the Company held a special meeting of the shareholders. At the meeting, the shareholders approved (i) an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the Company’s authorized common stock, par value $0.001, from one hundred million (100,000,000) to two hundred and fifty million (250,000,000) shares, (ii) authorizing the Company’s
Board of Directors to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at the discretion of the Board of Directors, at a ratio of three (3) shares of pre-split common stock into one (1) shares of common stock, and (iii) an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Studio One Media, Inc. to AfterMaster, Inc. The Company has no current plans to reverse stock split its shares.

Stockholders
As of June 30, 2015, the number of stockholders of record according to our transfer agent was approximately 502. Because many of our shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of shareholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of stockholders represented by these record holders. Consequently, the actual number of stockholders of record as of the date of this Report was not available. The Company believes, however, that it has approximately 1,500 stockholders in total.
Dividends
The Company has paid no dividends on its Common Stock since its inception and does not anticipate or contemplate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Pursuant to the terms of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, a 5% annual dividend is due and owing. Pursuant to the terms of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, an 8% annual dividend is due and owing. Pursuant to the terms of our Series A-1 Senior Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, a 6% annual dividend is due and owing. As of June 30, 2015, we had not declared dividends on Series A, Series B or its Series A-1 Preferred Stock. We have, however, for those shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock that were converted, calculated the dividends through the date of conversion and issued shares of common stock in payment of those dividends. The unpaid cumulative dividends totaled approximant $648,236. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We currently generate revenue from our operations through three activities: session revenues, AfterMaster revenues, and licensing revenues.
Session revenues are generated from our ProMaster HD online music mastering service. The session revenues totaled $11,030 and $36,192, for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease in session revenues was primarily due to ProMaster being taken offline for redesign and operational development.
AfterMaster revenues are generated primarily from AfterMaster audio services provided to producers and artists on a contract basis. We hope this source of revenue grows in coming years, and the Company is expecting to generate additional revenues in this category from on-line mastering downloads and the development of the AfterMaster software algorithm and chip, although such growth and additional revenues are not assured and may not occur. AfterMaster revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, decreased to $91,570, as compared to $146,307 for the comparable fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the mastering and remastering of music and licensing by our customers.
Licensing revenues are generated by licensing certain technologies, intellectual property, and patents to third parties. Our licensing revenues increased to $200,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the $0 for the comparable fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, due primarily to a licensing contract with bBooth.
In the aggregate, total Company revenues increased to $302,600 for the year ended June 30, 2015, as compared to total revenues of $182,499 for the year ended June 30, 2014, due to an increase in licensing revenues partially offset by decreases in session revenues and AfterMaster revenues.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for our finance, legal, human resources, and information technology personnel; advertising expenses; rent and facilities; and expenses related to the issuance of stock compensation.
The overall increase in general and administrative expenses are primarily a result of increase in research development and professional fees related to AfterMaster.
Professional fees, travel expenses, and office expenses increased from $746,867, $127,201, and $63,776 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 to $4,787,166, $280,255, and $252,644 and during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The increase in professional fees is primarily attributable to our issuing more Common Stock and warrants to various employees and consultants for services rendered during the year.

The other income and expenses during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, totaling $4,151,810 of net expenses consisted almost entirely of interest and derivative expense. During the comparable period in 2014, other income and expenses totaled $1,807,610. Interest expense has increased primarily due to non-cash interest expense relating to warrants attached to recent debt issuances, as well as conversion features included in recent convertible debt issuances. These additional borrowings have been used in the development of the AfterMaster HD.

Due to the Company’s cash position, we use our Common Stock and warrants to pay many employees, vendors and consultants as well as to raise capital through incentives attached to our debt offerings. Once we have raised additional capital from outside sources, as well as generated cash flows from operations, we expect to reduce the use of Common Stock as a significant means of compensation. Under FASB ASC 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and ASC 505-50 “Equity Based Payments to Non-employees”, these non-cash issuances are expensed at the equity instruments fair market value. Absent these large stock-based compensation of $2,527,056 and $1,206,885 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, our net loss would have been $8,653,262 and $4,127,030 for fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had revenues of $302,600 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $182,499 in the comparable period in 2014. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $58,165,447. At June 30, 2015, the Company had negative working capital of $13,027,775, which was a decrease in working capital of $6,443,236 from June 30, 2014.
The Company had revenues of $302,600 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $182,499 in the comparable period in 2014. The Company has incurred losses since inception of $58,165,447. At June 30, 2015, the Company had negative working capital of $13,027,775, which was a decrease in working capital of $6,443,236 from June 30, 2014.
The Company had cash of $2,185,702 as of June 30, 2015, as compared to $77,876 as of June 30, 2014. This increase is due primarily to the company entering into eighteen (18) separate promissory notes, two (2) conversions of warrants for cash, and one hundred and forty-nine (149) Share Purchase Agreements with individual accredited investors resulting in net proceeds of $5,128,632 to the Company. This amount was partially offset by operational costs, purchases of assets, and payments of obligations from convertible notes, notes, and lease payables.
The Company had prepaid expense of $3,319,258 as of June 30, 2015, as compared to $20,499 as of June 30, 2014. The increase is due to the Company issuing 2,550,000 warrants in conjunction with five financial advisory agreements entered into during the fiscal year and the issuance of 10,579,665 warrants in conjunction with a consulting agreement resulting in an increase in prepaid expense of $6,930,262, partially offset by amortization of prepaid expenses.
The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to obtain sufficient capital contributions and/or financing as may be required to sustain its operations. Management’s plan to address these issues includes a continued exercise of tight cost controls to conserve cash and obtaining additional debt and/or equity financing.
As we continue our activities, we will continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of significant revenues that generate a positive sales margin.
The Company expects that additional operating losses will occur until net margins gained from sales revenue is sufficient to offset the costs incurred for marketing, sales and product development. Until the Company has achieved a sales level sufficient to break even, it will not be self-sustaining or be competitive in the areas in which it intends to operate.
In addition, the Company will require substantial additional funds to continue production and installation of the additional studios and to fully implement its marketing plans.
As of June 30, 2015, the existing capital and anticipated funds from operations were not sufficient to sustain Company operations or the business plan over the next twelve months. We anticipate substantial increases in our cash requirements which will require additional capital to be generated from the sale of Common Stock, the sale of Preferred Stock, equipment financing, debt financing and bank borrowings, to the extent available, or other forms of financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the event we cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic business plan, we may have to significantly curtail our operations. This would materially impact our ability to continue operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional funding when needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company.
Recent global events, as well as domestic economic factors, have recently limited the access of many companies to both debt and equity financings. As such, no assurance can be made that financing will be available or available on terms acceptable to the Company, and, if available, it may take either the form of debt or equity. In either case, any financing will have a negative impact on our financial condition and will likely result in an immediate and substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.
Although the Company intends to engage in a subsequent equity offering of its securities to raise additional working capital for operations, the Company has no firm commitments for any additional funding, either debt or equity, at the present time. Insufficient financial resources may require the Company to delay or eliminate all or some of its development, marketing and sales plans, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. There is no certainty that the expenditures to be made by the Company will result in a profitable business proposed by the Company.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. ASC 605 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to goods and services provided when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company's revenues are generated from AfterMaster products and services, and licensing fees. Revenues related to licensing fees generated per a term sheet with bBooth are recorded when payment is received as there is no current executed agreement in place and the term of use is indefinite, pursuant to which bBooth agreed to acquire exclusive rights to license certain technologies, intellectual property, and patents from AfterMaster.
Valuation of Long-lived Assets – Long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company uses an estimate of undiscounted future net cash flows of the assets over the remaining useful lives in determining whether the carrying value of the assets is recoverable. If the carrying values of the assets exceed the expected future cash flows of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying values of the assets and their estimated fair values. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent from other groups of assets. The evaluation of long-lived assets requires the Company to use estimates.
Stock-based Compensation – The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Equity instruments issued to non-employees for goods or services are accounted for at fair value and are marked to market until service is complete or a performance commitment date is reached, whichever is earlier. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model for determining the fair value of stock-based compensation. The Company also follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees,” which addresses the accounting and reporting for both the issuer (that is, the purchaser or grantor) and recipient (that is, the goods or service provider or grantee) for a subset of share-based payment transactions.
Convertible Securities and Derivatives – The Company estimates the fair values of the debt and warrants, and allocates the proceeds pro rata based on these values. The allocation of proceeds to the warrants results in the debt instrument being recorded at a discount from the face amount of the debt and the value allocated to the warrant is recorded to additional paid-in capital.
When the convertible debt or equity instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds from the convertible host instruments are first allocated to the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the convertible instruments themselves, resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value.
Derivative Liabilities - The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with the earliest issuance date would be settled first. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares.
Using this sequencing policy, all instruments convertible into common stock, including warrants and the conversion feature of notes payable, issued subsequent to August 14 2014 are derivative liabilities.
The Company values these convertible notes payable using the multinomial lattice method that values the derivative liability within the notes based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
Our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 have been audited to the extent indicated in the report by Sadler, Gibb & Associates , independent certified public accountants, and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and pursuant to Regulation S-X as promulgated by the SEC.
The aforementioned financial statements are presented in a separate section of this Report following Part IV.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer, President, and Chief Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”) are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. The Certifying Officers have designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information is made known to them, particularly during the period in which this Report was prepared.
The Certifying Officers responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company used the “Internal Control over Financial Reporting Integrated Framework” issued by Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) to conduct an extensive review of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Exchange Act, Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of each of the periods covered by this Report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that the information we were required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms.
The Certifying Officers based their conclusion on the fact that the Company has identified material weaknesses in controls over financial reporting, detailed below. In order to reduce the impact of these weaknesses to an acceptable level, the company has contracted with consultants with expertise in U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting standards to review and compile all financial information prior to filing that information with the SEC. However, even with the added expertise of these consultants, we still expect to be deficient in our internal controls over disclosure and procedures until sufficient capital is available to hire the appropriate internal accounting staff and individuals with requisite GAAP and SEC financial reporting knowledge. There have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
Management Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Management used the “Internal Control over Financial Reporting Integrated Framework” issued by COSO to conduct an extensive review of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to make that evaluation. As of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the Company had identified deficiencies in internal controls that constituted material weaknesses in internal controls. Due to these material weaknesses, management concluded that internal controls over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 were not effective, based on COSO’s framework.
The deficiencies are attributed to the fact that the Company does not have adequate resources to address complex accounting issues, as well as an inadequate number of persons to whom it can segregate accounting tasks within the Company so as to ensure the segregation of duties between those persons who approve and issue payment from those persons who are responsible to record and reconcile such transactions within the Company’s accounting system. These control deficiencies will be monitored and attention will be given to the matter as we continue to accelerate through our current growth stage.
Management has concluded that these control deficiencies constitute a material weakness that continued throughout fiscal year 2015. In order to reduce the impact of these weaknesses to an acceptable level, we have contracted with consultants with expertise in U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting standards to review and compile all financial information prior to filing that information with the SEC. However, even with the added expertise of these consultants, we still expect to be deficient in our internal controls over disclosure and procedures until sufficient capital is available to hire the appropriate internal accounting staff and individuals with requisite GAAP and SEC financial reporting knowledge. There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that occurred during our most recent fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
This Annual Report does not include attestation reports of the Company’s registered public accounting firms regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company provide that the Company will indemnify and advance expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, to each person who is or was a director, officer or agent of the Company, or who serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the request of the Company (an “Indemnitee”). Under Delaware law, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits of a suit or proceeding brought against him or her by reason of the fact that he or she was a director, officer or agent of the Company, or serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the request of the Company, the Company will indemnify him or her against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action. If unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal suit, or if such a suit is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under Delaware law against both (i) expenses, including attorneys’ fees, and (ii) judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his other conduct was unlawful. If unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of the Company, where the suit is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under Delaware law only against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in the defense or settlement of the suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Company, he or she cannot be made whole even for expenses unless a court determines that he or she is fully and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses. Also under Delaware law, expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the suit, action or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. The Company may also advance expenses incurred by other employees and agents of the Company upon such terms and conditions, if any, that the Board of Directors of the Company deems appropriate. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in Delaware law and is therefore unenforceable.
On July 21, 2009, the Company approved a Directors and Officers Indemnity Agreement for its directors and principal officers. It has since entered into agreements with Messrs. Barry M. Goldwater, Preston J. Shea, Kenneth R. Pinckard, Lawrence G. Ryckman, Sheldon Yakus, Matthew Long and Anna L. Madrid. Subsequently, we entered into a similar agreement with former director Frank Perrotti, Jr. A copy of the Directors and Officers Indemnity Agreement was attached as an exhibit to our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, filed October 15, 2009.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires the Company’s directors and named executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and our other equity securities with the SEC. Based on a review of the public record, we believe that during the year ended June 30, 2015 and before, certain former Officers and Directors did not file the required reports on a timely basis under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act. One Form 3 was filed for former director Barry M Goldwater Jr. on June 08, 2015, with respect to becoming a director on March 30, 2006; one Form 4 was filed for Barry M Goldwater Jr. on June 08, 2015; with respect to transactions occurring on December 21, 2007, August 29, 2007, November 18, 2008, June 11, 2009, July 22, 2009, November 20, 2009, December 23, 2009, January 22, 2010, April 23, 2010, July 22, 2010,October 08, 2010, December 30, 2010, March 01, 2011, May 05, 2011, July 25, 2011, November 03, 2011, November 19, 2012, February 22, 2013, May 08, 2013, July 22, 2013, October 22, 2013, January 28, 2014, April 16, 2014, May 06, 2014, July 18, 2014, February 12, 2015, and May 04, 2015.

As of June 30, 2015 our equity compensation plans were as follows:
2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan
On June 10, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the 2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). The purpose of the 2009 Plan was to advance the interests of the Company by encouraging and enabling acquisition of a financial interest in the Company by employees and other key individuals. The 2009 Plan was intended to aid the Company in attracting and retaining key employees, to stimulate the efforts of such individuals and to strengthen their desire to remain with the Company. A maximum of 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock was reserved for issuance under stock options to be issued under the 2009 Plan. The Plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Non-Statutory Stock Options and Restricted Stock Awards. The 2009 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or, at its direction, the Compensation Committee comprised of officers of the Company. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had granted options to fifteen employees to purchase, in the aggregate, 727,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The exercise period for each of the grants was two to five years from the date of grant and the average exercise price was $0.88. During the year ended June 30, 2010, one employee exercised the option to purchase 28,571 shares for $10,000. During the year ended June 30, 2011, one employee exercised the option to purchase 20,000 shares for $10,400, or $0.52 per share. During the year ended June 30, 2013, 85,000 shares expired. No Grants were made under the Plan during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. During the year ended June 30, 2014, 257,000 shares expired and 25,000 Grants were made under the Plan. The number of unexercised, outstanding options at June 30, 2014 was 381,429 at an average exercise price of $0.87 per share. During the year ended June 30, 2015, 301,429 shares expired and 0 Grants were made under the Plan.

Future Transactions
All future affiliated transactions are expected to be made or entered into on terms that are no less favorable to the Company than those that can be obtained from any unaffiliated third party. A majority of the independent, disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors are asked to approve future affiliated transactions. The Company believes that of the transactions described above have been on terms at least as favorable to it as could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties as a result of arm’s length negotiations.
Conflicts of Interest
In accordance with the laws applicable to the Company, its Directors are required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the Company’s best interests. In the event that a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Board of Directors, a Director who has such a conflict is expected to disclose the nature and extent of his interest to those present at the meeting and to abstain from voting for or against the approval of the matter in which he has a conflict.
Director Independence
Our Common Stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board. As such, we are not currently subject to corporate governance standards of listed companies, which require, among other things, that the majority of the board of directors be independent.
Since we are not currently subject to corporate governance standards relating to the independence of our directors, we choose to define an “independent” director in accordance with the NASDAQ Global Market’s requirements for independent directors (NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200). The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that a director is not an employee of the company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings with the company. We presently do not have a compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee of our Board of Directors, stock plan committee or any other committees, except for an Audit Committee.

1. Audit Fees. Consists of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audits of Registrant’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and for review of the financial statements included in Registrant’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for those fiscal years.
2. Audit-Related Fees. Consists of fees billed for services rendered to Registrant for audit-related services, which generally include fees for audit and review services in connection with proposed spin-off transactions, separate audits of employee benefit and pension plans, and ad hoc fees for consultation on financial accounting and reporting standards.
3. Tax Fees. Consists of fees billed for services rendered to Registrant for tax services, which generally include fees for corporate tax planning, consultation and compliance.
4. All Other Fees. Consists of fees billed for all other services rendered to Registrant, which generally include fees for consultation regarding computer system controls and human capital consultations. No services were performed related to financial information systems design and implementation for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
No “audit-related,” “tax” and “all other” services in 2015 or 2014, as defined above, were approved by the Audit Committee in reliance on the de minimums exception to the preapproval requirements under federal securities laws and regulations.
Pre-Approval of Services of Principal Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee’s written policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by Registrant’s principal accounting firm (independent auditor). These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other permissible non-audit services. Any service incorporated within the independent auditor’s engagement letter, which is approved by the Audit Committee, is deemed pre-approved. Any service identified as to type and estimated fee in the independent auditor’s written annual service plan, which is approved by the Audit Committee, is deemed pre-approved up to the dollar amount provided in such annual service plan.
During the year, the principal accounting firm may also provide additional accounting research and consultation services required by, and incident to, the audit of Registrant’s financial statements and related reporting compliance. These additional audit-related services are pre-approved up to the amount approved in the annual service plan approved by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may also pre-approve services on a case-by-case basis during the year.
The Audit Committee’s approval of proposed services and fees are noted in the meeting minutes of the Audit Committee and/or by signature of the Audit Committee on the engagement letter. The principal accounting firm of Registrant and management are periodically requested to summarize the principal accounting firm services and fees paid to date, and management is required to report whether the principal accounting firm’s services and fees have been pre-approved in accordance with the required pre-approval process of the Audit Committee.
Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services by the Registrant’s principal accountants is compatible with maintaining auditor independence.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Studio One Media, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Studio One Media, Inc. as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended. Studio One Media, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Studio One Media, Inc. as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the footnotes to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses since inception and has a negative working capital as of June 30, 2015 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in the footnotes to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

AFTERMASTER, INC.
(FORMERLY STUDIO ONE MEDIA, INC.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 and 2014
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
AfterMaster, Inc., formerly Studio One Media, Inc. (the “Company” or “AfterMaster”) was originally organized in Delaware on May 12, 1988, as Dimensional Visions Group, Ltd. The name was changed on January 15, 1998 to Dimensional Visions Incorporated. On February 8, 2006, it changed its name to Elevation Media, Inc., and on March 28, 2006 the Company’s name was changed to Studio One Media, Inc. as part of its overall plan to implement its revised business plan.
In April 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. (formerly known as Studio One Entertainment, Inc.), a privately-held Scottsdale, Arizona-based company that designed and manufactured the recording studios currently in use by the Company (the “MyStudio Agreement”).
On April 17, 2007, the Company announced that it had finalized the reverse merger of MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. through an all-stock transaction. The purchase was pursuant to an agreement entered into by the companies dated March 29, 2006. The reverse merger included the exchange of 7,000,000 restricted Common Shares of AfterMaster, Inc. for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. The substance of the transaction resulted in a reverse merger wherein MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. became the accounting acquirer of AfterMaster. Therefore, historical financial data reflects the operations and accumulated deficit of MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. The transaction essentially is a recapitalization of MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc. The reverse merger includes all right, title and interest to MyStudio HD Recording Studio, Inc.’s proprietary interactive recording studios, business plan and intellectual property, including pending patents, foreign patent rights and federal trademark applications. MyStudio, Inc. continues to operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of AfterMaster. Accordingly, the financial statements present on a consolidated basis the operations of AfterMaster and MyStudio HD Recording Studios, Inc., as well it’s other wholly-owned subsidiary, AfterMaster HD Audio, Inc.
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company has elected a June 30 fiscal year end.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AfterMaster and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates are made in relation to the allowance for doubtful accounts and the fair value of certain financial instruments.
Notes and Other Receivables
Notes and other receivables are stated at amounts management expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for uncollectible receivables based upon management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at each reporting period considering historical experience and customer credit quality and delinquency status. Delinquency status is determined by contractual terms. Bad debts are written off against the allowance when identified.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company’s cash balances were within the FDIC insurance coverage limits.
Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities Disclosures
The fair value measurements and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
|
•
|
|
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
|
|
|
|
|
|
•
|
|
Level 2 inputs utilize other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable in the marketplace for the asset. The observable inputs are used in valuation models to calculate the fair value for the asset.
|
|
•
|
|
Level 3 inputs are unobservable but are significant to the fair value measurement for the asset, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset.
|
A review of fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy.
Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company’s financial instruments mainly consist of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses and debt. The carrying amounts of its cash, receivables, current asserts, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current debt approximates fair value due to the Short-Term nature of these instruments. The debt consists of lease payable and notes payables, the lease payables, which is due 24 months after June 30, 2015, therefore its carrying amount also approximates fair value.
Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash. Our cash balances are maintained in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located in the United States. The Company occasionally maintains amounts on deposit with a financial institution that are in excess of the federally insured limits. The risk is managed by maintaining all deposits in high quality financial institutions.
For the year ended June 30, 2015 there were no customers that accounted for a material portion of total revenues, and 2014 there was no customer that accounted for a material portion of total revenues.
Property and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the asset, after the asset is placed in service. The Company generally uses the following depreciable lives for its major classifications of property and equipment:

Furniture and Office Equipment
|

|

|
Leasehold Improvements
|

|

|

|
Expenditures associated with upgrades and enhancements that improve, add functionality, or otherwise extend the life of property and equipment are capitalized, while expenditures that do not, such as repairs and maintenance, are expensed as incurred.
Property and Equipment Yet to be Placed in Service
The Company capitalizes direct costs associated with the production of a new studio as it is being built. Depreciation of these assets does not begin until the studio is complete and placed into service.
Intangible assets consist of intellectual property, website costs, video backgrounds, and patterns and molds. The Company’s intellectual property includes purchased patents and trademarks as well as other proprietary technologies. Website costs are costs incurred to develop the Company’s website. Video backgrounds are the costs incurred to develop video backgrounds for use in the Company’s recording studios. Patterns and molds are for the design and construction of the studios. The Company amortizes intangible assets over the following useful lives:

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company uses both an estimate of undiscounted future net cash flows of the assets over the remaining useful lives and a replacement cost method when determining their fair values. If the carrying values of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying values of the assets and their fair values. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent from other groups of assets. The evaluation of long-lived assets requires the Company to use estimates of future cash flows. However, actual cash flows may differ from the estimated future cash flows used in these impairment tests.
The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. ASC 605 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to goods and services provided when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company's revenues are generated from AfterMaster products and services, and licensing fees. Revenues related to licensing fees generated per a term sheet with bBooth are recorded when payment is received as there is no current executed agreement in place and the term of use is indefinite, pursuant to which bBooth agreed to acquire exclusive rights to license certain technologies, intellectual property, and patents from AfterMaster. The key terms of the letter agreement consist of the following:
·
|
bBooth agreed to pay the Company $1,250,000 over 18 months, for a conditional perpetual license of intellectual property (including related patents and other assets), of which, to date, $200,000 has been received;
|
·
|
bBooth agreed to grant 600,000 shares of our common stock to Studio One, which shares where received subsequent to year end on September 3, 2015 and;
|
·
|
upon full receipt of the $1,250,000 cash consideration, bBooth will have the option to purchase six complete MyStudio booths, one fully operational mobile studio and truck, and an interest in its MyStudio TV show, for nominal additional consideration.

Cost of Revenues
The Company’s cost of revenues includes studio lease expense, employee costs, and other nominal amounts. Depreciation is not included within cost of sales.
The Company follows the policy of expensing its research and development costs in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with ASC 730, Accounting for Research and Development Costs. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $67,742 and $31,450 during the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company expenses advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising expenses were $1,389 and $85,810 for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and have been included within general and administrative expenses.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718, Share-Based Payment, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model for determining the fair value of share-based compensation.
The Company also follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees,” which addresses the accounting and reporting for both the issuer (that is, the purchaser or grantor) and recipient (that is, the goods or service provider or grantee) for a subset of share-based payment transactions. ASC 505-50 requires equity instruments issued to non-employees for goods or services are accounted for at fair value and are marked to market until service is complete or a performance commitment date is reached, whichever is earlier.
Derivative Liabilities - The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with the earliest issuance date would be settled first. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares.
Using this sequencing policy, all instruments convertible into common stock, including warrants and the conversion feature of notes payable, issued subsequent to August 14 2014 are derivative liabilities.
The Company values these convertible notes payable using the multinomial lattice method that values the derivative liability within the notes based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.
Basic earnings (loss) per Common Share is computed by dividing losses attributable to Common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. The losses attributable to Common shareholders was increased for accrued and deemed dividends on Preferred Stock during the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 of $64,141 and $68,064, respectively.
Diluted earnings per Common Share is computed by dividing income (loss) attributable to Common shareholders by the weighted-average number of Shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional Shares of Common Stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding convertible Preferred Stock, stock options, warrants, and convertible debt. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities.
For the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, all of the Company’s potentially dilutive securities (warrants, options, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt) were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive. The total number of potentially dilutive Common Shares that were excluded were 28,028,612 and 15,895,075 at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
In July, 2006, the FASB issued ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a return. ASC 740 provides guidance on the measurement, recognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions, along with accounting for the related interest and penalties. Under this pronouncement, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that a position would more likely than not be sustained based upon its technical merit if challenged by the relevant taxing authority and taken by management to the court of the last resort. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority.
The Company’s policy is to recognize both interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits expected to result in payment of cash within one year are classified as accrued liabilities, while those expected beyond one year are classified as other liabilities. The Company has not recorded any interest and penalties since its inception.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. The tax years for 2012 to 2015 remain open for federal and/or state tax jurisdictions. The Company is currently not under examination by any other tax jurisdictions for any tax years.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our consolidated financial statements. The Company’s management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $58,165,447, negative working capital of $13,027,775, and currently has revenues which are insufficient to cover its operating costs, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.
The future of the Company as an operating business will depend on its ability to (1) obtain sufficient capital contributions and/or financing as may be required to sustain its operations and (2) to achieve adequate revenues from its MyStudio and AfterMaster businesses. Management's plan to address these issues includes, (a) continued exercise of tight cost controls to conserve cash, (b) obtaining additional financing, (c) placing in service additional studios (d) more widely commercializing the AfterMaster and ProMaster products, and (e) identifying and executing on additional revenue generating opportunities.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible Notes Payable
In accounting for its convertible notes payable, proceeds from the sale of a convertible debt instrument with Common Stock purchase warrants are allocated to the two elements based on the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at time of issuance. The portions of the proceeds allocated to the warrants are accounted for as paid-in capital with an offset to debt discount. The remainder of the proceeds are allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction as prescribed by ASC 470-25-20. The Company then calculates the effective conversion price of the note based on the relative fair value allocated to the debt instrument to determine the fair value of any beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) associated with the convertible note in accordance with ASC 470-20-30. The BCF is recorded to additional paid-in capital with an offset to debt discount. Both the debt discount related to the issuance of warrants and related to a BCF is amortized over the life of the note.

On August 15, 2014, the Company amended the convertible notes dated September 29, 2011 for $100,000 and January 6, 2012 for $75,000 to extend the maturity date to November 15, 2014 and issued 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $15,750, as well as 50,000 warrants valued at $12,767. The Company evaluated amendment under ASC 470-50, “Debt - Modification and Extinguishment”, and concluded that the extension did result in significant and consequential changes to the economic substance of the debt. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $28,517. On October 20, 2014, the note holder elected to convert the entire note of $175,000.
On September 30, 2013, the Company issued a convertible note to an unrelated individual for $100,000 that matures on February 28, 2014. The note bears an interest rate of 0% per annum and is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $0.10 per share.

Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between income tax and financial reporting computed at the effective income tax rate. The Company has established a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of such assets. Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. At such time it is determined that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are realizable, the valuation allowance will be reduced.
The Company files U.S. federal and Arizona income tax returns. Our major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal and the State of Arizona and are subject to tax examinations for the open years from 2009 through 2012. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not filed its tax return for the fiscal year ended 2012. While none are anticipated, fines and/or penalties may be associated with the delinquent filing.
As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $24.7 million and $26.4 million, respectively. Such carryforwards may be used to reduce taxable income, if any, in future year subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income and Arizona tax purposes. The Company believes an ownership change may have occurred, as defined by Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, which could result in the forfeiture of a significant portion of its net operating loss carry-forwards. The Company is not using any tax attributes in the current year, but will analyze whether a change occurred and the related impact on its gross deferred tax assets, if needed. As the Company's analysis is not complete, the impact to its gross deferred tax assets is uncertain. If not utilized, the federal and state net operating loss carry-forwards will begin expiring in 2015.
NOTE 11 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company has estimated the fair value of these embedded derivatives for convertible debentures and associated warrants using a multinomial lattice model as of June 30, 2015, and 2014. The fair values of the derivative instruments are measured each quarter, which resulted in a gain (loss) of $(1,545,181) and $0, and derivative expense of $524,518 and $0 during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the fair market value of the derivatives aggregated $12,814,941 and $0, respectively, using the following assumptions: estimated 10-0.10 year term, estimated volatility of 141.46 -70.62%, and a discount rate of 2.35-0.00%.
NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
For asset and liabilities measured at fair value, the Company uses the following hierarchy of inputs:
●
|
Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
|
|
|
●
|
Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
|
|
|
●
|
Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
|
Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2015, are summarized as follows:
