+Added: equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the
+Added: consolidated statements of operations.
+Added: Investments - Cost Method, Equity Method
+Added: and Joint Venture
+Added: In accordance with sub-topic 323-10 of
+Added: the FASB ASC (“Sub-topic 323-10”), the Company accounts for investments in common stock of an investee for which the
+Added: Company has significant influence in the operating or financial policies even though the Company holds 50% or less of the common
+Added: stock or in-substance common stock.
+Added: On January 2, 2013, the Company purchased
+Added: a minority interest in a business for proceeds of $83,333.
+Added: The interest is accounted for under the cost method.
+Added: The Company tests
+Added: the carrying value annually for impairment.
+Added: The company recorded an impairment of minority investment of $83,333 during the year
+Added: ended December 31, 2017.
+Added: Commitments and Contingencies
+Added: The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of
+Added: the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies.
+Added: Certain conditions may exist as of the date
+Added: the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when
+Added: one or more future events occur or fail to occur.
+Added: The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently
+Added: involves an exercise of judgment.
+Added: In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company
+Added: or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings
+Added: or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
+Added: If the assessment of a contingency indicates
+Added: that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated
+Added: liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
+Added: If the assessment indicates that a potential
+Added: material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature
+Added: of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
+Added: Loss contingencies considered remote are
+Added: generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
+Added: Derivative Liability
+Added: The Company evaluates its debt and equity
+Added: issuances to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted
+Added: for in accordance with paragraph 815-10-05-4 and Section 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
+Added: The result of
+Added: this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded
+Added: as either an asset or a liability.
+Added: In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded
+Added: in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense.
+Added: Upon conversion, exercise or cancellation of a derivative
+Added: instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the date of conversion, exercise or cancellation and then the related fair
+Added: value is reclassified to equity.
+Added: In circumstances where the embedded conversion
+Added: option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the
+Added: convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single,
+Added: compound derivative instrument.
+Added: The classification of derivative instruments,
+Added: including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting
+Added: Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification are reclassified to
+Added: liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.
+Added: Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified
+Added: in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected
+Added: within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
+Added: The Company adopted Section 815-40-15
+Added: of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 815-40-15”) to determine whether an instrument (or an embedded
+Added: feature) is indexed to the Company’s own stock.
+Added: Section 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach
+Added: to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating
+Added: the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions.
+Added: The Company changed its method of accounting for the debt
+Added: and warrants through the early adoption of ASU 2017-11 during the year ended December 31, 2017 on a retrospective basis.
+Added: The Company utilizes an option pricing
+Added: model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet
+Added: The Company records the change in the fair value of the derivative as other income or expense in the condensed consolidated
+Added: statements of operations.
+Added: Revenue Recognition
+Added: On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting
+Added: Standards Update No.
+Added: 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition
+Added: requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), using the modified retrospective
+Added: transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018.
+Added: Results for reporting periods beginning
+Added: after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported
+Added: in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605.
+Added: The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material
+Added: to our condensed consolidated financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018.
+Added: Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized
+Added: when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we
+Added: expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
+Added: We determine revenue recognition through
+Added: the following steps:
+Added: identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
+Added: identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
+Added: determination of the transaction price;
+Added: allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;
+Added: recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
+Added: Revenue disaggregated by revenue source for the years ended
+Added: December 31, 2018 and 2017 consists of the following:
+Added: Year Ended December 31,
+Added: Branded content
+Added: Affiliate sales
+Added: Other revenue
+Added: Branded Content
+Added: Branded content represents the revenue
+Added: recognized from the Company’s obligation to create and publish branded articles for the Client on the Vocal platform and
+Added: promote said stories, tracking engagement for the Client.
+Added: The performance obligation is satisfied when the Company successfully
+Added: publishes the articles on its platform and meets any required promotional milestones as per the contract.
+Added: The revenue is recognized
+Added: over time as the services are performed.
+Added: Below are the significant components of
+Added: a typical agreement pertaining to branded content revenue:
+Added: Company will collect fixed fees ranging from $1,000 to $15,000
+Added: articles are created and published within three months of the signed agreement, or as previously negotiated with the Client
+Added: articles are promoted per the contract and engagement reports are provided to the Client
+Added: Client pays 50% at signing and 50% upon completion
+Added: contracts include provisions for Clients to acquire content rights at the end of the campaign for a flat fee
+Added: Affiliate sales
+Added: Affiliate sales represents the commission
+Added: the Company receives when a purchase is made through affiliate links placed within content hosted on the Vocal platform.
+Added: revenue is earned on a "click through"
+Added: basis, upon referring visitors, via said links, to an affiliate's site and having
+Added: them complete a specific outcome, most commonly a product purchase.
+Added: The Company uses multiple affiliate platforms, such as Skimlinks,
+Added: to form and maintain thousands of vendor relationships.
+Added: Each vendor establishes their own commission percentage, which typically
+Added: range from 2-20%.
+Added: The revenue is recognized upon receipt as reliable estimates could not be made.
+Added: Deferred Revenue
+Added: Deferred revenue consists of billings and
+Added: payments from clients in advance of revenue recognition.
+Added: As of December 31, 2018, the Company had deferred revenue of $9,005.
+Added: The Company will typically record this as revenue within the next three months as the performance obligations are met.
+Added: Accounts Receivable and Allowances
+Added: Accounts receivable are recorded and carried
+Added: when the Company uploads the articles and reaches the required number of views on the platform.
+Added: We make estimates for the allowance
+Added: for doubtful accounts and allowance for unbilled receivables based upon our assessment of various factors, including historical
+Added: experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, and other
+Added: factors that may affect our ability to collect from customers.
+Added: The Company did not record an allowance during the years ended December
+Added: 31, 2018 and 2017.
+Added: Stock-Based Compensation
+Added: The Company recognizes compensation expense
+Added: for all equity–based payments granted to employees in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation –
+Added: Stock Compensation”.
+Added: Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity–based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture
+Added: rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service period of the award.
+Added: Restricted stock awards are granted at
+Added: the discretion of the Company.
+Added: These awards are restricted as to the transfer of ownership and generally vest over the requisite
+Added: service periods, typically over a five-year period (vesting on a straight–line basis).
+Added: The fair value of a stock award is
+Added: equal to the fair market value of a share of Company stock on the grant date.
+Added: The fair value of an option award is estimated
+Added: on the date of grant using the Black–Scholes option valuation model.
+Added: The Black–Scholes option valuation model requires
+Added: the development of assumptions that are inputs into the model.
+Added: These assumptions are the value of the underlying share, the expected
+Added: stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the underlying stock
+Added: and the expected forfeiture rate.
+Added: Expected volatility is benchmarked against similar companies in a similar industry over the
+Added: expected option life and other appropriate factors.
+Added: Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded
+Added: risk–free rates for the appropriate term.
+Added: The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared
+Added: any cash dividends on its Common stock and does not intend to pay dividends on its Common stock in the foreseeable future.
+Added: expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on management’s best estimate.
+Added: Determining the appropriate fair value
+Added: model and calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described
+Added: The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards represent management’s best
+Added: estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.
+Added: As a result, if factors change
+Added: and the Company uses different assumptions, our equity–based compensation could be materially different in the future.
+Added: addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected
+Added: If the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, the equity–based compensation
+Added: could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
+Added: The Company accounts for share–based
+Added: payments granted to non–employees in accordance with ASC 505-40, “Equity Based Payments to Non–Employees”.
+Added: The Company determines the fair value of the stock–based payment as either the fair value of the consideration received
+Added: or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
+Added: If the fair value of the equity instruments
+Added: issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date
+Added: at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which
+Added: the counterparty’s performance is complete.
+Added: The fair value of the equity instruments is re-measured each reporting period
+Added: over the requisite service period.
+Added: Income taxes are provided in accordance
+Added: 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”.
+Added: A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences
+Added: between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards.
+Added: Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net
+Added: change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
+Added: Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
+Added: allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
+Added: not be realized.
+Added: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date
+Added: of enactment.
+Added: Management makes judgments as to the interpretation
+Added: of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability.
+Added: the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions.
+Added: In management’s
+Added: opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years.
+Added: If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies
+Added: from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.
+Added: Loss Per Share
+Added: Basic net loss per common share is computed
+Added: by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
+Added: Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during
+Added: the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.
+Added: In periods when losses are reported, which is the case
+Added: for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 presented in these consolidated financial statements, the weighted-average number
+Added: of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
+Added: The Company had the following common stock
+Added: equivalents at December 31, 2018 and 2017:
+Added: Series A Preferred stock
+Added: Series B Preferred stock
+Added: Convertible notes - related party
+Added: Convertible notes
+Added: Reclassifications
+Added: Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated
+Added: financial statements and the notes thereto have been reclassified where necessary to conform to the current year presentation.
+Added: These reclassifications did not affect the prior period total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’
+Added: deficit, net loss
+Added: or net cash used in operating activities.
+Added: Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
+Added: In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
+Added: 2016-09, “Compensation –
+Added: Stock Compensation”
+Added: The FASB issued this update to improve the accounting
+Added: for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees.
+Added: aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including:
+Added: (a) income tax consequences;
+Added: classification of awards as either equity or liabilities;
+Added: and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows.
+Added: The updated guidance
+Added: is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
+Added: Early adoption
+Added: of the update is permitted.
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of
+Added: operations or cash flows.
+Added: In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
+Added: 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers:
+Added: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”
+Added: March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
+Added: 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers:
+Added: Principal versus Agent Considerations
+Added: (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)”
+Added: These amendments provide additional clarification and implementation guidance
+Added: on the previously issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
+Added: The amendments in ASU 2016-10 provide
+Added: clarifying guidance on materiality of performance obligations;
+Added: evaluating distinct performance obligations;
+Added: treatment of shipping
+Added: and handling costs;
+Added: and determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right
+Added: to use an entity’s intellectual property or a right to access an entity’s intellectual property.
+Added: The amendments in
+Added: ASU 2016-08 clarify how an entity should identify the specified good or service for the principal versus agent evaluation and how
+Added: it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements.
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-08 is to coincide
+Added: with an entity’s adoption of ASU 2014-09, which we adopted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-10 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash
+Added: In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
+Added: “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606):
+Added: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, which narrowly
+Added: amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition
+Added: and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09.
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-12 did not have a material effect on its financial
+Added: position or results of operations or cash flows.
+Added: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,
+Added: “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230):
+Added: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”
+Added: (“ASU 2016-15”).
+Added: ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement
+Added: of cash flows.
+Added: ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.
+Added: The new standard will require adoption
+Added: on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case it would be required to apply the amendments prospectively
+Added: as of the earliest date practicable.
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results
+Added: of operations or cash flows.
+Added: In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,
+Added: “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)”, requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change in the total cash,
+Added: cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.
+Added: This guidance is effective
+Added: for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
+Added: The provisions
+Added: of this guidance are to be applied using a retrospective approach which requires application of the guidance for all periods presented.
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
+Added: In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718):
+Added: of Modification Accounting,”
+Added: which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment
+Added: award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718.
+Added: This standard is required to be adopted in the first quarter
+Added: The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash
+Added: In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11,
+Added: “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815):
+Added: Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features;
+Added: Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily
+Added: Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with
+Added: a Scope Exception”.
+Added: Part I of this update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with
+Added: down round features.
+Added: Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result
+Added: in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings.
+Added: Current accounting guidance creates
+Added: cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round
+Added: features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option.
+Added: Part II of this update addresses the
+Added: difficulty of navigating Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, because of the existence of extensive pending content
+Added: in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
+Added: This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements
+Added: about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling
+Added: The amendments in Part II of this update do not have an accounting effect.
+Added: This ASU is effective for fiscal years,
+Added: and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018.
+Added: The Company early adopted the ASU 2017-11 in the year
+Added: ending December 31, 2017.
+Added: Adoption of ASU 2017-11
+Added: As noted above, in connection with the securities purchase agreement and debt transactions during the
+Added: year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued warrants and convertible notes, to purchase common stock with an exercise price
+Added: of $0.20 and a five-year term.
+Added: Upon issuance of the warrants and convertible notes, the Company evaluated the note agreement to
+Added: determine if the agreement contained any embedded components that would qualify the agreement as a derivative.
+Added: The Company identified
+Added: certain equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s
+Added: contingent exercise and settlement provisions, requiring the Company to classify the warrants and convertible notes as a derivative
+Added: The Company changed its method of accounting for the convertible notes and warrants through the early adoption of ASU
+Added: 2017-11 during the year ended December 31, 2017 on a retrospective basis.
+Added: Accordingly, the Company recorded the warrant derivative
+Added: and conversion option derivative liabilities to additional paid in capital upon issuance.
+Added: Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet
+Added: In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
+Added: “Leases (Topic 842).”
+Added: Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will, among other things, require lessees to recognize a lease liability,
+Added: which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis;
+Added: and a right-of-use
+Added: asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease
+Added: ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors;
+Added: however, certain changes were
+Added: made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts
+Added: with Customers.”
+Added: ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2019 and initially required transition using a modified
+Added: retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented
+Added: in the financial statements.
+Added: In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11 , “Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements,”
+Added: which, among other things, provides an additional transition method that would allow entities to not apply the guidance in ASU
+Added: 2016-02 in the comparative periods presented in the financial statements and instead recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to
+Added: the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.
+Added: In December 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-20, “Leases
+Added: (Topic 842) - Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors,”
+Added: which provides for certain policy elections and changes lessor accounting
+Added: for sales and similar taxes and certain lessor costs.
+Added: As of January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 and has recorded a
+Added: right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for its operating leases.
+Added: We elected to apply certain practical expedients
+Added: provided under ASU 2016-02 whereby we will not reassess(i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii)
+Added: the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases.
+Added: not expect to apply the recognition requirements of ASU 2016-02 to any short-term leases (as defined by related accounting guidance).
+Added: We expect to account for lease and non-lease components separately because such amounts are readily determinable under our lease
+Added: contracts and because we expect this election will result in a lower impact on our balance sheet.
+Added: In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16,
+Added: “Income Taxes (Topic 740):
+Added: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory”, which eliminates the exception
+Added: that prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income tax effects for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory
+Added: until the asset has been sold to an outside party.
+Added: The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December
+Added: 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
+Added: Early adoption of the update is permitted.
+Added: The Company is currently
+Added: evaluating the impact of the new standard.
+Added: Management does not believe that any recently
+Added: issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated
+Added: financial statements.
