Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc.
September 30, 2018 and 2017
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization and Operations
Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc. (“we,”
“us,” the “Company,” or “Jerrick Media” or “Jerrick”) (formerly Great Plains Holdings,
Inc. or “GTPH”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on December 30, 1999 under the name LILM, Inc.
The Company changed its name on December 3, 2013 to Great Plains Holdings, Inc. as part of its plan to diversify its business through
the acquisition and operation of commercial real estate, including, but not limited to, self-storage facilities, apartment buildings,
55+ senior manufactured home communities, and other income producing properties. Historically, the Company has principally engaged
in the manufacture and marketing of the LiL Marc, a plastic boys’ toilet-training device, which we discontinued as of December
31, 2014.
On February 5, 2016 (the “Closing
Date”), GTPH, GPH Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of GTPH (“Merger Sub”),
and Jerrick Ventures, Inc., a privately-held Nevada corporation headquartered in New Jersey (“Jerrick”), entered into
an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the Merger Sub was merged with and into Jerrick,
with Jerrick surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTPH (the “Merger”). GTPH acquired, through a reverse triangular
merger, all of the outstanding capital stock of Jerrick in exchange for issuing Jerrick’s shareholders (the “Jerrick
Shareholders”), pro-rata, a total of 28,500,000 shares of GTPH’s common stock. GTPH assumed 33,415 shares of Jerrick’s
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Jerrick Series A Preferred”) and 8,064 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock (the “Jerrick Series B Preferred”).
In connection with the Merger, on the Closing
Date, GTPH and Kent Campbell entered into a Spin-Off Agreement (the “Spin-Off Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Campbell
purchased from GTPH (i) all of GTPH’s interest in Ashland Holdings, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and (ii) all
of GTPH’s interest in Lil Marc, Inc., a Utah corporation, in exchange for the cancellation of 781,818 shares of GTPH’s
Common Stock held by Mr. Campbell. In addition, Mr. Campbell assumed all debts, obligations and liabilities of GTPH, including
any existing prior to the Merger, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Spin-Off Agreement.
Upon closing of the Merger on February
5, 2016, the Company changed its business plan to that of Jerrick Media.
Effective February 28, 2016, GTPH entered
into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Statutory Merger Agreement”) with Jerrick, pursuant to which GTPH became
the parent company of Jerrick Ventures, LLC, a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Jerrick (the “Statutory Merger”)
and GTPH changed its name to Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc. to better reflect its new business strategy.
Jerrick Media is a technology company focused
on the development of digital communities, marketing branded digital content, and e-commerce opportunities. Jerrick’s content
distribution platform, Vocal, delivers a robust long-form, digital publishing platform organized into highly engaged niche-communities
capable of hosting all forms of rich media content. Through Jerrick’s proprietary algorithm dynamics, Vocal enhances the
visibility of content and maximizes viewership, providing advertisers access to target markets that most closely match their interests.
Note 2 – Significant and Critical
Accounting Policies and Practices
Management of the Company is responsible
for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies and the appropriateness of accounting policies and their application.
Critical accounting policies and practices are those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial
condition and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the
need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical
accounting policies and practices are disclosed below as required by generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis of Presentation - Unaudited Interim Financial
Information
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with US GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Critical accounting estimates are estimates
for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly
uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or
operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements
were:
(i)
Assumption as a going concern : Management assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
(ii)
Fair value of long-lived assets: Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives. The Company considers the following to be some examples of important indicators that may trigger an impairment review: (i) significant under-performance or losses of assets relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; (ii) significant changes in the manner or use of assets or in the Company’s overall strategy with respect to the manner or use of the acquired assets or changes in the Company’s overall business strategy; (iii) significant negative industry or economic trends; (iv) increased competitive pressures; (v) a significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period of time; and (vi) regulatory changes. The Company evaluates acquired assets for potential impairment indicators at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such events.
(iii)
Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets : Management assumes that the realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets resulting from its net operating loss (“NOL”) carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes that may be offset against future taxable income was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are offset by a full valuation allowance. Management made this assumption based on (a) the Company has incurred recurring losses, (b) general economic conditions, and (c) its ability to raise additional funds to support its daily operations by way of a public or private offering, among other factors.
(iv)
Estimates and assumptions used in valuation of equity instruments : Management estimates expected term of share options and similar instruments, expected volatility of the Company’s common shares and the method used to estimate it, expected annual rate of quarterly dividends, and risk-free rate(s) to value share options and similar instruments.
6
These significant accounting estimates
or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to these estimates or assumptions,
and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical
experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management regularly evaluates the key
factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances,
historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Principles of consolidation
The Company consolidates all majority-owned
subsidiaries, if any, in which the parent’s power to control exists.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s
consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:
Name of combined affiliate
State or other jurisdiction of
incorporation or organization
Company interest
Jerrick Ventures LLC
The State of Delaware
100%
Jerrick Australia Pty Ltd
Australia
100%
All inter-company balances and transactions
have been eliminated.
Jerrick Australia Pty Ltd does not have
any operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10
of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37
of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial
instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph
820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value
into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy
defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1
Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2
Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 3
Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
Financial assets are considered Level 3
when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least
one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
7
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest
priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the
categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amount of the Company’s
financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and accrued liquidating
damages approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Transactions involving related parties
cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings
may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions
were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be
substantiated.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company minimizes its credit risk associated
with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally
insured limits.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at
cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over
the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
Estimated Useful
Life
(Years)
Computer equipment and software
3
Furniture and fixture
5
Leasehold improvement
5
Upon sale or retirement of property and
equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the
consolidated statements of operations.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date
the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved
when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently
involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company
or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings
or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates
that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated
liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential
material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of
the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are
generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
8
Derivative Liability
The Company adopted Section 815-40-15 of
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 815-40-15”) to determine whether an instrument (or an embedded
feature) is indexed to the Company’s own stock. Section 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach
to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating
the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The Company changed its method of accounting for
the debt and warrants through the early adoption of ASU 2017-11 during the year ended December 31, 2017 on a retrospective basis.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606, “Revenue
from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”), effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method
which would require a cumulative effect adjustment for initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening
balance of retained earnings and the comparative information would not require to be restated and continue to be reported under
the accounting standards in effect for those periods.
Based on the Company’s analysis the
Company did not identify a cumulative effect adjustment for initially applying the new revenue standards. During the nine months
ended September 30, 2018 the Company recorded revenue from the following sources: products at auction, sponsored content and affiliate
sites.
The adoption of ASC 606 represents a change
in accounting principle that will more closely align revenue recognition with the delivery of the Company’s services and will provide
financial statement readers with enhanced disclosures. In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains
control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled
to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:
1) Identify
the contract with a customer
A contract with a customer exists when
(i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services
to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii)
the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on
the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s
ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience
or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
2) Identify
the performance obligations in the contract
Performance obligations promised in a contract
are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby
the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third
parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately
identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company must
apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract.
If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.
3) Determine
the transaction price
The transaction price is determined based
on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent
the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be
included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the
nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment,
it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s
contracts as of September 30, 2018 contained a significant financing component. Determining the transaction price requires significant
judgment, which is discussed by revenue category in further detail below.
9
4) Allocate
the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
If the contract contains a single performance
obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services
that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company
must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. For
example, a bonus or penalty may be associated with one or more, but not all, distinct services promised in a series of distinct
services that forms part of a single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an
allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the
transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service
that forms part of a single performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which
the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the
Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally
approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.
5) Recognize
revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The Company satisfies performance obligations
either over time or at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring
a promised service to a customer.
Product revenue
Revenue from multiple-element arrangements
is allocated among separate elements based on their estimated sales prices, provided the elements have value on a stand-alone basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense
for all equity–based payments granted to employees in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock
Compensation”. Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity–based compensation net
of an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service
period of the award.
Restricted stock awards are granted at
the discretion of the Company. These awards are restricted as to the transfer of ownership and generally vest over the requisite
service periods, typically over a five-year period (vesting on a straight–line basis). The fair value of a stock award is
equal to the fair market value of a share of Company stock on the grant date.
The fair value of an option award is estimated
on the date of grant using the Black–Scholes option valuation model. The Black–Scholes option valuation model requires
the development of assumptions that are inputs into the model. These assumptions are the value of the underlying share, the expected
stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the underlying stock
and the expected forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is benchmarked against similar companies in a similar industry over the expected
option life and other appropriate factors. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free
rates for the appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends
on its Common stock and does not intend to pay dividends on its Common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture
rate is estimated based on management’s best estimate.
Determining the appropriate fair value
model and calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described
above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards represent management’s best
estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change
and the Company uses different assumptions, our equity–based compensation could be materially different in the future. In
addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected
to vest. If the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, the equity–based compensation
could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
The Company accounts for share–based
payments granted to non–employees in accordance with ASC 505-40, “Equity Based Payments to Non–Employees”.
The Company determines the fair value of the stock–based payment as either the fair value of the consideration received or
the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments
issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date
at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the
counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instruments is re-measured each reporting period over
the requisite service period.
10
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance
with ASC No. 740, “ Accounting for Income Taxes ”. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary
differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from
the net change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date
of enactment.
Management makes judgments as to the interpretation
of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the
Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In management’s opinion,
adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates,
additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed
by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, which is the case for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 presented in these consolidated financial statements, the weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The Company had the following common stock
equivalents at September 30, 2018 and 2017:

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (topic 606). In
March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations
(Reporting Revenue Gross verses Net)” (topic 606). These amendments provide additional clarification and implementation guidance
on the previously issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in ASU 2016-10 provide
clarifying guidance on materiality of performance obligations; evaluating distinct performance obligations; treatment of shipping
and handling costs; and determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right
to use an entity’s intellectual property or a right to access an entity’s intellectual property. The amendments in
ASU 2016-08 clarify how an entity should identify the specified good or service for the principal versus agent evaluation and how
it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements. The adoption of ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-08 is to coincide
with an entity’s adoption of ASU 2014-09, which we adopted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-10 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash
flows.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January
1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method which would require a cumulative effect adjustment for initially applying the new
revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings and the comparative information would not require
to be restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

Based on the Company’s analysis the
Company did not identify a cumulative effect adjustment for initially applying the new revenue standards. During the six months
ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded revenue from the following sources: products at auction, sponsored content and affiliate

Adoption of ASU 2017-11
As noted above, in connection with the
securities purchase agreement and debt transactions during the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued warrants and convertible
notes, to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.20 and a five-year term. Upon issuance of the warrants and convertible
notes, the Company evaluated the note agreement to determine if the agreement contained any embedded components that would qualify
the agreement as a derivative. The Company identified certain put features embedded in the warrants and convertible notes that
potentially could result in a net cash settlement in the event of a fundamental transaction, requiring the Company to classify
the warrants and convertible notes as a derivative liability. The Company changed its method of accounting for the convertible
notes and warrants through the early adoption of ASU 2017-11 during the three months ended December 31, 2017 on a retrospective
basis. Accordingly, the Company recorded the warrant derivative and conversion option derivative liabilities to additional paid
in capital upon issuance.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet
Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
“Leases (Topic 842).” Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize, for all leases of 12 months
or more, a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the
lease term. Additionally, the guidance requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the
nature of an entity’s leasing activities. This ASU is effective for public reporting companies for interim and annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect of the new guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements and
disclosures.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16,
“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory” , which eliminates the exception
that prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income tax effects for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory
until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December
15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of the new standard.
Management does not believe that any recently
issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
Note 3 – Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations,
realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the condensed consolidated
financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2018, a net loss and net cash used in operating activities
for the reporting period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements.
The Company is attempting to further implement
its business plan and generate sufficient revenues; however, its cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations.
While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues
and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering of its debt or equity securities, there can
be no assurance to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further
implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private
offering.
The condensed consolidated financial statements
do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification
of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Private Placement Offerings:
The February 2017 Offering
From February 24, 2017 through March 17,
2017, the Company conducted multiple closings of a private placement offering (the “February 2017 Offering”) of
the Company’s securities by entering into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with accredited
investors (the “Accredited Investors”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $916,585 for which the Accredited Investors
received $975,511 in principal value of secured promissory notes with an original issue discount of six percent (6%) (the “February
2017 Offering Notes”) and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock (the “February 2017 Offering Warrants”).
The February 2017 Offering Notes are convertible
into shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of Company’s next round of financing (the “Subsequent Offering”)
at a price equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the price per share offered in the Subsequent Offering (the “Conversion
Price”). The February 2017 Offering Warrants have a five-year term. Investors received the February 2017 Offering Warrants
in the following amounts: (i) Investors purchasing $150,000 or more of the Offering received a February 2017 Offering Warrant equal
to one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the dollar amount invested in the Offering; (ii) investors purchasing at least $100,000
but less than $150,000 of the February 2017 Offering received a February 2017 Offering Warrant equal to one hundred percent (100%)
of the dollar amount invested in the Offering; and (iii) investors purchasing less than $100,000 of the Offering received to a
February 2017 Offering Warrant equal to seventy percent (70%) of the dollar amount invested in the Offering. The February 2017
Offering Warrants entitle the holder to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.20 per share (the “Exercise
Price”) .
The Conversion Price and the Exercise Price
are subject to adjustments for issuances of (i) the Company’s common stock, (ii) any equity linked instruments or (iii) securities
convertible into the Company’s common stock, at a purchase price of less than the prevailing Conversion Price or Exercise
Price. Such adjustments shall result in the Conversion Price or Exercise Price being reduced to such lower purchase price, as described
in the February 2017 Offering Notes and the February 2017 Offering Warrants.
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements,
the February 2017 Offering Notes matured on September 1, 2017 (the “February 2017 Offering Maturity Date”). Prior to
the February 2017 Offering Maturity Date, investors representing $575,511 in principal value converted their February 2017 Offering
Notes into two year, 15% secured convertible promissory notes offered by the Company (the “August 2017 Convertible Note Offering”).
The remaining investors representing an aggregate $400,000 in principal of the February 2017 Offering Notes agreed to forbear their
right to declare an event of default until December 15, 2017 during which time they retain the right to convert their principal
and any accrued but unpaid interest into the August 2017 Convertible Note Offering. In consideration of the forbearance for which
the investors will receive a warrant to purchase up to fifteen percent (15%) of the shares of common stock underlying the warrant
acquired with the purchase of the February 2017 Offering Notes at a purchase price of $0.20 per share, and the interest on their
note would be increased to eighteen percent (18%) from September 1, 2017 through December 15, 2017 or the conversion date, whichever
is sooner.
During the nine months ended September
30, 2018 the Company has repaid $131,606 of principal and $45,931 of unpaid interest. In addition, during the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the Company converted $263,025 of principal and $21,502 of unpaid interest into 1,422,639 shares of common
stock. Upon conversion of the notes, the Company also issued 711,320 warrants with a grant date fair value of $102,954 which is
recorded in Other income (expense) on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The June 2017 Loan Agreement
On June 12, 2017, the Company entered into
a loan agreement (the “June 2017 Loan Agreement”) with an individual (the “June 2017 Lender”) whereby the
June 2017 Lender issued the Company a promissory note of $50,000 (the “June 2017 Note”). Pursuant to the June 2017
Loan Agreement, the June 2017 Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. As additional consideration for entering in the June

which Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares shall be Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share and Twenty Million (20,000,000)

Preferred Stock
Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock
On February 13, 2015, 100,000 shares of
preferred stock were designated as Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A”). Each share of Series
A shall have a stated value equal to $100 (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such shares)
(the “Series A Stated Value”).
The holders of the Series A shall be entitled
to receive preferential dividends at the rate of 6% per share per annum on the Series A Stated Value, but before any dividend or
other distribution will be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any shares of any Junior Stock, as defined. Such dividends
shall compound annually and be fully cumulative, and shall accumulate from the date of original issuance of the Series A and shall
be payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter following the date on which the Series A
is issued. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below) and while such Event of Default is outstanding, such dividend
rate shall be increased to 15% per annum on the Series A Stated Value. At the Company’s option, such dividend payments
may be made in (i) cash (ii) additional shares of Series A valued at the Series A Stated Value thereof, in an amount equal to 150%
of the cash dividend otherwise payable or (iii) a combination of cash and additional shares of Series A, provided there
is not an existing current Event of Default on the date on which a dividend payment is payable, in which event the Holder entitled
to receive such dividend may elect to receive such dividends in cash or additional shares of Series A Preferred.
29
The dividends on the Series A shall be
cumulative whether or not declared so that, if at any time full cumulative dividends at the rate aforesaid on all shares of the
Series A then outstanding from the date from and after which dividends thereon are cumulative to the end of the annual dividend
period next preceding such time shall not have been paid or declared and set apart for payment, or if the full dividend on all
such outstanding Series A for the then current dividend period shall not have been paid or declared and set apart for payment,
the amount of the deficiency shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment before any sum shall be set apart for or applied
by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Series A or any shares
of any other class of stock ranking on a parity with the Series A and before any dividend or other distribution shall be paid or
declared and set apart for payment on any Junior Stock and before any sum shall be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption
or other acquisition of any Junior Stock.
Holder of Series A shall have the right
at any time after the issuance, to convert such shares, accrued but unpaid declared dividends on the Series A and any other sum
owed by the Corporation arising from the Series A into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion
Shares”) of the Corporation determined in accordance with the applicable conversion price (the “Conversion Price”).
The number of Conversion Shares issuable
upon conversion shall equal (i) the sum of (A) the Series A Stated Value being converted and/or (B) at the Holder’s election,
accrued and unpaid dividends or any other component of the Conversion Amount, divided by (ii) the Conversion Price. The Conversion
Price of the Series A shall be $0.25, subject to adjustment.
During the year ended December 31, 2016
the conversion price was adjusted to $0.164
The Corporation and the Holder may not
convert that amount of the Conversion Amount on a Conversion Date in amounts that would result in the Holder having a beneficial
ownership of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by
the Holder and its Affiliates on such Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of
the Conversion Amount with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on such Conversion Date, which would
result in the aggregate beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock of the Corporation. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder
shall not be limited to successive exercises which would result in the aggregate issuance of more than 4.99%. The Holder may allocate
which of the equity of the Corporation deemed beneficially owned by the Holder shall be included in the 4.99% amount described
above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%. The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this
Section in whole or in part, upon and effective after sixty-one (61) days’ prior written notice to the Corporation.
The holders of our Series A do vote together
with the holders of our Common Stock on an as converted basis on each matter submitted to a vote of holders of Common Stock. The
number of votes that may be cast by a holder of Series A shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of such Holder’s Series A on the record date for determining those stockholders entitled to vote on the matter. In addition,
the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding Series A is required to for the following actions:
(a) amending the Corporation’s
certificate of incorporation or by-laws if such amendment would adversely affect the Series A
(b) purchasing any of
the Corporation’s securities other than required redemptions of Series A and repurchase under restricted stock and option
agreements authorizing the Corporation’s employees;
(c) effecting a Liquidation
Event;
(d) declaring or paying
any dividends other than in respect of the Series A; and
(e) issuing any additional
securities having rights senior to or on parity with the Series A.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company has
undeclared Series A dividends of $0.
See below for discussion of conversion
of Series A in relation to the private placement closing in August 2018.

Stock
On December 21, 2015, 20,000 shares of
preferred stock were designated as Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B”). Each share of Series
B shall have a stated value equal to $100.00 (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such
shares) (the “Series B Stated Value”).
The holders of outstanding shares of Series
B shall be entitled to receive preferential dividends at the rate of 6% per share per annum on the Series B Stated Value, but before
any dividend or other distribution will be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any shares of any Junior Stock as defined.
Such dividends shall compound annually and be fully cumulative and shall accumulate from the date of original issuance of the Series
B, and shall be payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter following the date on which
the Series B is issued. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as defined below and while such Event of Default is outstanding,
such dividend rate shall be increased to 15% per annum on the Series B Stated Value. At the Corporation’s option, such dividend
payments may be made in (i) cash (ii) additional shares of Series B valued at the Series B Stated Value thereof, in an amount equal
to 100% of the cash dividend otherwise payable or (iii) a combination of cash and additional shares of Series B, provided there
is not an existing current Event of Default on the date on which a dividend payment is payable, in which event the Holder entitled
to receive such dividend may elect to receive such dividends in cash or additional shares of Series B Preferred.
The dividends on the Series B shall be
cumulative whether or not declared so that, if at any time full cumulative dividends at the rate aforesaid on all shares of the
Series B then outstanding from the date from and after which dividends thereon are cumulative to the end of the annual dividend
period next preceding such time shall not have been paid or declared and set apart for payment, or if the full dividend on all
such outstanding Series B for the then current dividend period shall not have been paid or declared and set apart for payment,
the amount of the deficiency shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment before any sum shall be set apart for or applied
by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Series B or any shares
of any other class of stock ranking on a parity with the Series B and before any dividend or other distribution shall be paid or
declared and set apart for payment on any Junior Stock and before any sum shall be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption
or other acquisition of any Junior Stock.
Holders of shares of Series B shall have
the right at any time commencing after the issuance to convert such shares, accrued but unpaid declared dividends on the Series
B into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Corporation determined
in accordance with the applicable conversion price (the “Conversion Price”). All declared or accrued but
unpaid dividends may be converted at the election of the Holder together with or independent of the conversion of the Series B
Stated Value of the Series B.
The number of Conversion Shares issuable
upon conversion of the Conversion Amount shall equal (i) the sum of (A) the Series B Stated Value being converted and/or (B) at
the Holder’s election, accrued and unpaid dividends or any other component of the Conversion Amount, divided by (ii) the
Conversion Price. The Conversion Price of the Series B shall be $0.30, subject to adjustment.
During the year ended December 31, 2016
the conversion price was adjusted to $0.197.
The Corporation and the Holder may not
convert that amount of the Conversion Amount on a Conversion Date in amounts that would result in the Holder having a beneficial
ownership of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by
the Holder and its Affiliates on such Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of
the Conversion Amount with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on such Conversion Date, which would
result in the aggregate beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock of the Corporation. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder
shall not be limited to successive exercises which would result in the aggregate issuance of more than 4.99%. The Holder may allocate
which of the equity of the Corporation deemed beneficially owned by the Holder shall be included in the 4.99% amount described
above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%. The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this
Section in whole or in part, upon and effective after sixty-one (61) days’ prior written notice to the Corporation.
The holders of our Series B do vote together
with the holders of our Common Stock on an as converted basis on each matter submitted to a vote of holders of Common Stock. The
number of votes that may be cast by a holder of Series B shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of such Holder’s Series B on the record date for determining those stockholders entitled to vote on the matter. In addition,
the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding Series B is required to for the following actions:
(a) amending the Corporation’s
certificate of incorporation or by-laws if such amendment would adversely affect the Series B
(b) purchasing any of
the Corporation’s securities other than required redemptions of Series B and repurchase under restricted stock and option
agreements authorizing the Corporation’s employees;

Holders of shares of Series D shall have
the right at any time commencing after the issuance to convert such shares into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Corporation determined in accordance with the applicable conversion price (the

Conversion Price. The Conversion Price of the Series D is $0.25, subject to adjustment.
The Company and the Holder may not convert
that amount of the Conversion Amount on a Conversion Date in amounts that would result in the Holder having a beneficial ownership
of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder
and its Affiliates on such Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Conversion
Amount with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on such Conversion Date, which would result in the
aggregate beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Corporation. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not

Note 12 – Revision of Prior Year
Financial Statements:
The Company’s correction of accrued
dividends was a result of the following:
●
Management was accruing dividends as a liability, despite the fact the Board of Directors had not formally declared the dividends payable. This results in accrued dividends being removed from the liabilities section of the balance sheet,
●
Management was not compounding the dividends annually,
●
Management was not presenting the accrued dividends on the consolidated statement of operations, ultimately being included in the loss per share.
In accordance with the guidance provided
by the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 99, Materiality and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects
of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements the Company has determined
that the impact of adjustments relating to the correction of this accounting error are not material to previously issued consolidated
financial statements. Accordingly, these changes are disclosed herein and will be disclosed prospectively.
As a result of the aforementioned correction
of accounting errors, the relevant financial statements have been revised as follows:

Condition and Results of Operations.
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and
other reports filed by Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) from time to time with the SEC (collectively, the
“Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information
currently available to, the Company’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s management.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only
as of the date hereof. When used in the Filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,”
“expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar
expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and
other factors, including the risks relating to the Company’s business, industry, and the Company’s operations and results
of operations. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.
Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of
activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States,
the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Our financial statements are prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles
require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon
which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions
are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of
the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements
would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting
treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its
application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce
a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We intend for this discussion to provide
information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements,
and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles affect our financial statements.
This discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes for the nine months ended September
30, 2018 and 2017, included elsewhere in this report.
The Company develops technology-based solutions
designed to solve for challenges that have resulted from disruption within the broad digital media and content generation business
environment. Jerrick’s flagship product Vocal is a long-form, digital publishing platform focused on supporting content creators
with content management tools that are embedded within digital communities. Vocal is architected to enable targeted marketing of
branded content and e-commerce opportunities in long-form content.
Vocal serves as a versatile home for content creators and brands. The platform supports multiple forms
of content such as: short videos, podcasts, music, and written word. This pace of activity is expected to increase.
36
We partner with content creators and brands
that recognize difficulties inherent in the digital advertising space and can benefit from branded content marketing opportunities
available on publishing platforms like Vocal.
During the remainder of the fourth quarter of 2018 and first half of Fiscal Year 2019, Jerrick plans to
launch additional revenue lines, including brand subscriptions to access the platform and its community of creators as well as
a subscription model for creator upgrade tools. The Company also intends to release further enhancements to the Vocal editor and
introduce additional social and user analytics features. Further,
in 2019 the Company plans to introduce Software as a Service (SaaS) subscriptions to the Vocal platform.

$ 1,203,834
At September 30, 2018, we had a working capital deficit of $2,370,990 as compared to a working capital
deficit of $3,574,824 at December 31, 2017, a decrease of $1,203,834. The decrease is primarily attributable to the increase in
cash and prepaid expenses and a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses, demand loan, line of credit and notes
payable. These changes were offset by an increase convertible notes current.
Net Cash
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, was $3,447,763
and $2,476,844 respectively. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $10,052,160 and $6,377,874,
respectively. This change is primarily attributable to the net loss for the current period offset by share-based payments in the
amount of $329,857 to employees and consultants for services rendered, the accretion of debt discount and debt issuance costs of
$2,039,589 due to the incentives given with debentures, and a loss on extinguishment of debt of $3,370,505, and a loss on settlement
of debt of $15,275 for the incentives given to amend or convert debt in addition to a change in accounts payable and accrued expenses
of $848,171. These increases were offset by gain on settlement of vendor liabilities of $2,886 and a change in accounts receivable
of $5,632 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Net cash used in investing activities for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $24,084 and $0, respectively. This change is attributable to the cash paid
for leasehold improvements.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was
$3,547,074 and $2,397,028. During the 2018 period, the Company was predominantly financed by issuance of common stock, debt and
related party notes of $1,155,832, $1,525,154 and $315,000, respectively to fund operations. In addition, the Company received
$208,428 from investors for the second close of the August 2018 equity raise. These increases were offset by repayment of line
of credit, notes and related party notes of $44,996, $214,939 and $163,305, respectively. The Company also paid $166,761 and $35,115
for debt issuance and stock issuance costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Revenue
Revenue was $25,119 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to $11,244 for the comparable
three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $13,875. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to the Company’s
transitioning from legacy businesses to generating revenue through native advertising, branded marketing, and affiliate sales,
resulting from the creation of genre specific, user generated content community websites. As part of that transition, the Company
focused its efforts throughout 2018 on the development of its proprietary Vocal software platform to support the scalability of
its business model.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $907,707 as compared to $1,418,386
for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease of $510,679 in operating expenses is the result of a reduction in accounts
payable and a decrease in consulting fees , partially
offset by an increase in employee compensation.
Loss from Operations
Loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $882,588 as compared to loss of
$1,407,142 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in the loss from operations is partially attributable to
an increase in revenue but primarily due to a company-wide effort to reduce operating expenses while creating efficiencies in the
revenue generating process.
Other Income (Expenses)
Other income (expenses) for the three months
ended September 30, 2018 was $(4,664,704), as compared to $(2,014,823) for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Other expenses
during the three months ended September 30, 2018 was comprised of interest expense of $(279,163) on notes and related party notes,
accretion of debt discount and issuance cost of $(1,449,656) due to the incentives given with debentures, loss on extinguishment
of debt of $(2,938,719), and a gain on settlement of debt of $1,011 for the incentives given to amend or convert debt. During the
three months ended September 30, 2017, other expenses were comprised of interest expense of $(228,120) on notes and related party
notes and accretion of debt discount and issuance cost of $(800,614) due to the incentives given with debentures, gain on extinguishment
of debt of $2,079 for the incentives given to amend or convert debt.
Net Loss
Net loss attributable to common shareholder
for three months ended September 30, 2018, was $7,608,573, or loss per share of $0.12, as compared to a net loss of $3,495,979,
or loss per share of $0.09, for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
Inflation did not have a material impact
on the Company’s operations for the applicable period. Other than the foregoing, management knows of no trends, demands,
or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Revenue was $65,391 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, as compared to $105,345 for the comparable
nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $39,954. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to the Company’s
transitioning from legacy businesses to generating revenue through native advertising, branded marketing, and affiliate sales,
resulting from the creation of genre specific, user generated content community websites. As part of that transition, the Company
focused its efforts throughout 2018 on the development of its proprietary Vocal software platform to support the scalability of
its business model.
Operating Expenses
Operating
expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $3,837,259 as compared to $3,488,117 for the nine months ended September
30, 2017. The increase of $349,142 in operating expenses is the result of specific short-term expenses incurred in the first half
of Fiscal Year 2018, including share-based payments, an increase in Jerrick's salesforce personnel, and elimination of accrued
payables through June 2018, as well as a $719,151 increase in General and Administrative expenses related to the continued development
of the Vocal platform and a $12,841 increase in compensation. These increased operating expenses were offset by a
$382,850 decrease in consulting and professional fees due to the reorganization of management and related duties.
Loss from Operations
Loss from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $3,771,868 as compared to loss of
$3,382,772 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in the loss from operations is primarily attributable to
an increase in expenses related to the continued development of the Vocal platform and the launch of additional content, the decrease
in sales and operating as a publicly traded company.
Other Income (Expenses)
Other income (expenses) for the nine months
ended September 30, 2018 was $(6,280,292), as compared to $(2,995,102) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Other expenses
during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was comprised of interest expense of $(888,359) on notes and related party notes,
accretion of debt discount and issuance cost of $(2,039,589) due to the incentives given with debentures, loss on extinguishment
of debt of $(3,370,505), and a gain on settlement of debt of $2,886 for the incentives given to amend or convert debt. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2017, other expenses were comprised of interest expense of $(372,825) on notes and related party
notes and accretion of debt discount and issuance cost of $(1,525,514) due to the incentives given with debentures, loss on extinguishment
of debt of $(923,822) for the incentives given to amend or convert debt.
Net Loss Attributable to Common Shareholders
Net
loss attributable to common shareholder for nine months ended September 30, 2018, was $12,243,026, or loss per share of $0.25,
as compared to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $6,581,239, or loss per share of $0.17, for the nine months ended
September 30, 2017. From the 2017 to 2018 periods, in addition to items explained above, the Company experienced a slight decrease
in deemed dividends and a $2 million increase related to the issuance of additional securities as inducement to convert convertible
preferred stock.
Inflation did not have a material impact
on the Company’s operations for the applicable period. Other than the foregoing, management knows of no trends, demands,
or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2018, we have no off-balance
sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
We believe that the following accounting
policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”
Use of Estimates
We use estimates and assumptions in preparing
financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument
is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked
to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize
the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy
is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined
into the following three categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted
prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that
are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions
that market participants would use in pricing.
The Company recognizes income and expenses
based on the accrual method of accounting.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the liability method
of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences
between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws
that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded when
it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will not be realized.
Derivative Liability
The Company evaluates its debt and equity
issuances to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted
for in accordance with paragraph 815-10-05-4 and Section 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The result of
this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded
as either an asset or a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded
in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or cancellation of a derivative
instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the date of conversion, exercise or cancellation and then the related fair
value is reclassified to equity.
In circumstances where the embedded conversion
option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the
convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single,
compound derivative instrument.
40
The classification of derivative instruments,
including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting
period. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification are reclassified to
liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified
in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected
within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
The Company adopted Section 815-40-15 of
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 815-40-15”) to determine whether an instrument (or an embedded
feature) is indexed to the Company’s own stock. Section 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step
approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including
evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions.
The Company utilizes an option pricing
model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet
date. The Company records the change in the fair value of the derivative as other income or expense in the consolidated statements
of operations.
Adoption of ASU 2017-11
As noted above, in connection with the
securities purchase agreement and debt transactions during the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued warrants and convertible
notes, to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.20 and a five-year term. Upon issuance of the warrants and convertible
notes, the Company evaluated the note agreement to determine if the agreement contained any embedded components that would qualify
the agreement as a derivative. The Company identified certain put features embedded in the warrants and convertible notes that
potentially could result in a net cash settlement in the event of a fundamental transaction, requiring the Company to classify
the warrants and convertible notes as a derivative liability. The Company changed its method of accounting for the convertible
notes and warrants through the early adoption of ASU 2017-11 during the three months ended December 31, 2017 on a retrospective
basis. Accordingly, the Company recorded the warrant derivative and conversion option derivative liabilities to additional paid
in capital upon issuance.
Stock Based Compensation
All stock-based payments to employees,
non-employee consultants, and to nonemployee directors for their services as directors, including any grants of restricted stock
and stock options, are measured at fair value on the grant date and recognized in the statements of operations as compensation
or other expense over the relevant service period. Stock-based payments to nonemployees are recognized as an expense over the period
of performance. Such payments are measured at fair value at the earlier of the date a performance commitment is reached or the
date performance is completed. In addition, for awards that vest immediately and are non-forfeitable the measurement date is the
date the award is issued.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect that the adoption
of recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.
41
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk.
We do not hold any derivative instruments
and do not engage in any hedging activities.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
and Procedures.
In connection with the preparation of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange
Act) are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in report that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s
rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed
fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
42
