SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 (this “Form 10-Q”) contains “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) relating to the Company and its subsidiaries that are based on the beliefs of the Company’s management as well as information that is currently available to the Company’s management.  When used in this Form 10-Q, the words “may”, “will”, “believe”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “estimates”, “projects”, “target”, “goal”, “plans”, “objective”, “should”, or similar expressions or variations on such expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, in particular, projections about the Company’s future results and statements about its plans, strategies, business prospects, changes and trends in its business and the markets in which it operates.  All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.  There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the availability and pricing of additional capital to finance our operations, competition, material adverse changes in economic and industry conditions, retention and renewal of existing license agreements and entry into new license agreements.  Because these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements.

BOLDFACE GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE INTERIM PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013
(UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1.                         FORMATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
 
Organization
 
BOLDFACE Group, Inc. (“BLBK”) together with its wholly owned subsidiary BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding (“BLB” and collectively, the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 9, 2007. On July 12, 2012, BOLDFACE Acquisition Corp., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, merged with and into BLB, with BLB remaining as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired the business of BLB and has continued the existing business operations of BLB as the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary. In connection with the Merger, on August 14, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a change of the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to June 30.
 
For financial reporting purposes, the Merger represented a capital transaction of BLB or a “reverse merger” rather than a business combination, because the sellers of BLB effectively controlled the combined company immediately following the completion of the Merger. As such, BLB was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of BLB.
 
BLB was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 26, 2012. BLB was founded by Ms. Nicole Ostoya, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and a director, and Ms. Robin Coe-Hutshing, a principal shareholder of the Company. Ms. Ostoya and Ms. Coe-Hutshing are beauty industry veterans with over 40 years combined experience in the industry. BLB’s focus is on licensing top tier entertainment and designer brands for opportunities in the beauty, fragrance and personal care markets. BLB contracts to design, manufacture and sell branded color cosmetics, hair preparations, fragrances, home fragrances, skin care, beauty tools, and other beauty and personal care products in multiple channels of distribution.
 
To date, the Company has devoted its efforts to developing, marketing and selling its Kardashian Beauty™ brand in multiple retail channels, developing a line of products that will be marketed under its licenses with Mario Lopez and UGLYDOLL®, evaluating additional license agreements with additional celebrities and brands, and raising additional capital.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and for the three and six month period ended December 31, 2012 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring entries, which the Company’s management believes to be necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Balance sheet amounts as of June 30, 2013 have been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in its Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 15, 2013.
 
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements in its Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013. The Company’s operating results will continue to fluctuate for the foreseeable future. Therefore, period-to-period comparisons should not be relied upon as predictive of the results in future periods.
 
Going Concern and Liquidity
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from its planned operations to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to raise additional equity and/or debt financing and through its factoring arrangements. In connection with the execution of its business plan, the Company anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) payments under existing licenses, (ii) investments in inventory for our Kardashian Beauty™ brand; (iii) research and development costs associated with new product offerings, and (iv) management and consulting costs, as well as general administrative expenses, including the costs of being a public company. The Company intends to finance these expenses by raising additional capital and generating sufficient revenues to meet short-term and long-term operating requirements. If additional financings are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict its business operations. The Company currently does not have a specific plan of how it will obtain such funding; however, it anticipates that additional funding will be in the form of equity and/or debt financings and/or additional short-term borrowings. As such, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company continues to operate within its factoring agreement, which automatically renewed on November 21, 2013 for an additional one-year period.
 
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company’s auditors expressed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report dated October 15, 2013, for the period ending June 30, 2013.
 
NOTE 2.                         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Consolidation

Method of Accounting
 
The Company maintains its accounting records on the accrual method of accounting in conformity with GAAP. As of September 30, 2013, the Company reclassified the presentation of freight-out from cost of sales and has included the expense as a selling expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2013, the Company reclassified the presentation of commissions and fees from general and administrative expense and has included the expense as a selling expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Use of Estimates
 
In preparing the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Management bases its estimates on certain assumptions that it believes to be reasonable as of the reporting period, 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. The most subjective and intricate estimates include inventory obsolescence reserves, certain accruals, returns and allowances and fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities and stock option expense.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
As required by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is probable.
 
For the six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company achieved 46% of net revenues from international customers and 54% of net revenues from its domestic customers. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, the Company achieved 2% of net revenues from international customers and 98% of net revenues from its domestic customers.

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company achieved 47% of net revenues from international customers and 53% of net revenues from its domestic customers.
 
The Company offers its customers a variety of sales and incentive programs, including discounts, allowances, coupons, slotting fees, and co-op advertising; such amounts are recorded as a reduction of revenue over the period in which revenue is recognized.

The Company reduced revenue in the amount of $782,520 and $227,543 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and such amounts are included in discounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Company reduced revenue in the amount of $499,681 and $227,543 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and such amounts are included in discounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
 
Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company’s financial instruments are primarily composed of cash, accounts receivable, factoring line of credit, accounts payable, and its convertible notes and warrants. The fair value of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, factoring line of credit, accounts payable and convertible notes closely approximates their carrying value due to their short maturities.
 
The valuation techniques utilized for the warrants and beneficial conversion feature of its convertible notes are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related asset or liabilities.
 
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.
 
The Company utilizes observable market inputs (quoted market prices) when measuring fair value whenever possible.
 
The Company’s warrants and the beneficial conversion feature for its convertible notes are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company's accounting and finance department.
 
As of December 31, 2013, there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 from other levels.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable balances represent payments due to the Company for previously recognized net sales, reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances, which are estimated to be uncollectible at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business to its customers. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support credit sales. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based on historical experience and ongoing evaluations of the Company’s receivables and evaluations of the risks of payment. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded against accounts receivable balances when they are deemed uncollectible. When accounts are deemed significantly past due and uncollectible, the accounts receivable balances are written down for the amount deemed to be uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously reserved are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when received. As of December 31, 2013, all of the Company’s accounts receivable were deemed to be collectible. One customer accounted for 69% and 94% of outstanding accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories, which consist primarily of finished goods, include items which are considered salable or usable in future periods, and are stated at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being based on standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Costs include direct materials, direct labor and overhead (e.g., indirect labor, rent and utilities, depreciation, purchasing, receiving, inspection and quality control), and in-bound freight costs. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. During the six months ended December 31, 2013 and the twelve months ended June 30, 2013, the Company reserved $200,000 and $365,722, respectively, for write-offs. The inventory write-off as of June 30, 2013 was primarily due to the name change of its Kardashian Beauty™ brand, which forced the Company to destroy or mark for destruction finished goods and work-in-process. The inventory write-off reserve as of December 31, 2013 was for allowances related to liquidation of slower moving items and write-offs for obsolete inventory. Total inventories as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were $2.050 million and $1.949 million, respectively.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment as of December 31, 2013 consists of costs incurred by the Company in connection with installing display fixtures at certain key customer display rooms and retail stores. The display fixtures are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over two years, which approximates the estimated useful lives of such assets. Display fixtures maintained at customer display rooms and retail stores amounted to $617,414, net of accumulated depreciation, at December 31, 2013.

Depreciation expense amounted to $234,969 and $11,652 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and is included in depreciation & amortization expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Depreciation expense amounted to $126,598 and $11,652 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and is included in depreciation & amortization expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Financing Costs
 
Deferred financing costs represent fees paid in connection with obtaining short-term loans and convertible notes (see Notes 4, 5 and 6). These fees are amortized using a method that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related financing.
 
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, deferred financing costs of $290,197 and $358,792, respectively, net of accumulated amortization, are presented on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
Amortization expense for deferred financing costs was $130,659 and $62,523 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Amortization expense for deferred financing costs was $69,075 and $62,523 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.  The remaining deferred financing costs will be fully amortized by March 1, 2015.
 
Debt Discount
 
The Company records debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of convertible debt (see Note 5). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is charged to the statement of operations.
 
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, convertible debt, net of unamortized debt discounts, was $1,214,181 and $281,716, respectively.

Amortization expense for debt discounts was $495,559 and $52,704 is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense for debt discounts was $255,443 and $52,704 is included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The remaining debt discounts will be fully amortized by March 1, 2015 (see Note 5).
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
GAAP requires derivative instruments embedded in convertible debt or equity instruments, to be bifurcated and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which management estimates to approximate the fair value using the Binomial Lattice Model. In assessing the debt instruments with characteristics of liability and equity, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and if there is a beneficial conversion feature. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will estimate the fair value of the embedded derivative instruments. The warrant liability is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using level 3 inputs (see Notes 5 and 6).
 
Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, convertible debt, a factoring line of credit, short-term loans, accounts payable and other current assets and liabilities.  The fair value of these instruments approximates their carrying value due to their relatively short maturities.  Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Customer concentrations also subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk.  The Company maintains cash balances that at times exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  In such cases, the carrying value of these assets are adjusted to their estimated fair value and assets held for sale are adjusted to their estimated fair value less selling expenses.  No impairment losses of long-lived assets or intangible assets were recognized for the six and three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company provides a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets when circumstances indicate that it is no longer more likely than not that such assets will be realized.

NOTE 5.                         CONVERTIBLE DEBT OFFERINGS
 
August Convertible Notes Offering
 
On August 29, 2013, the Company issued senior secured convertible notes (the “August Convertible Notes”) with an original issue discount of 12% and a conversion price of $0.068 per share (the “August Conversion Price”) for gross proceeds of $616,000.  The term of the August Convertible Notes include an eighteen-month maturity period, with partial redemption beginning on September 1, 2014. The August Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, which is paid quarterly. Interest is payable in cash or at the Company’s option in shares of common stock, provided certain conditions are met, based on a share value equal to the lesser of (a) 90% of the average of the volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) for the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable interest payment date and (b) 100% of the average of the VWAP for the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable interest payment date less $0.01. Upon any Event of Default (as defined in the August Convertible Notes), the outstanding principal amount of each August Convertible Note, plus liquidated damages, interest, a premium of 30% and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the noteholders’ election, immediately due and payable in cash.  Commencing five days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the interest rate on each August Convertible Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.  The August Conversion Price is subject to  “full ratchet” and other customary anti-dilution protections.
 
As of February 14, 2014, with the timely filing of its Form 10-Q, the Company is in compliance with the covenants of the August Convertible Notes which require the timely filing of the Company’s periodic reports with the SEC. The August Convertible Notes limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends or make distributions to its shareholders, (iii) incur liens that would rank senior in priority or pari passu to the August Convertible Notes, or (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of any assets or rights of the Company or its subsidiaries.
 
In connection with the issuance of the August Convertible Notes, warrants to purchase 9,058,824 shares of the Company’s common stock (“August Convertible Note Warrants”) were issued.  The August Convertible Note Warrants are exercisable for five years on a cashless basis. The August Convertible Note Warrants are exercisable at $0.082 per share and are subject to “weighted average” and other customary anti-dilution protections (see Note 6).

In connection with the June and August Convertible Notes offerings, the Company entered into an Amendment and Waiver Agreement (collectively, the “Amendment Agreement”) the holders of substantially all of the securities issued in connection with the Company’s Bridge Notes (as defined below), PPO Units (as defined below), short-term loans and PPO and Bridge Broker Warrants (as defined below) with the holders (collectively, the “Holders”) pursuant to which the Company reduced the exercise prices of all of its outstanding Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series E common stock purchase warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) as follows: the exercise price per share of the Series A warrants that had an initial exercise price of $0.25 was reduced to $0.01; the exercise price per share of the Series B warrants that had an initial exercise price of $0.50 was reduced to $0.015; the exercise price per share of the Series C warrants that had an initial exercise price of $1.00 was reduced to $0.03; and the exercise price per share of the Series D and Series E warrants that had an initial exercise price of $0.25 was reduced to $0.01. As the triggering event for the re-pricing of the warrants was the June Convertible Notes offering, the effect of the reduction in the respective exercise prices was reflected in the June 30, 2013 statement of operations and accompanying balance sheet.
 
In consideration of the exercise price reductions, the Holders agreed to permanently waive all past and future exercise price and share number anti-dilution adjustment provisions that would otherwise be triggered by share issuances by the Company at prices less than the purchase, exercise or conversion price of any securities acquired by the Holders in the offerings or underlying any of such securities.

The Company also issued to the certain licensors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for a term of ten years at an original exercise price of $0.24 per share (the “Licensor Warrants”). The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Licensor Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including stock splits and stock dividends (but excluding future issuances of the Company’s equity securities, regardless of whether or not such issuance is for no consideration or for consideration per share less than $0.24). The Licensor Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis at any time prior to their expiration. Except as otherwise described herein, the Licensor Warrants are identical in all material respects to the Investor Warrants.

On November 30, 2012, BLB filed a complaint for a declaratory judgment in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division entitled BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding v. By Lee Tillett, Inc. (“Tillett”). BLB’s complaint requests a declaration from the Court that (1) BLB’s use of the Khroma term, including the Khroma Beauty marks does not infringe on Tillett’s rights in its Kroma trademark, and (2) BLB’s two pending trademark applications for Khroma Beauty marks should be allowed to register with the USPTO. On January 9, 2013 Tillet filed an answer and counterclaims for (1) trademark infringement, (2) false designation of origin, (3) trademark infringement, and (4) unfair competition pursuant. In addition to BLB, Tillett's Counterclaims are made against the following additional parties: Kims a princess Inc., 2Die4Kourt Inc., Khlomoney Inc., and individuals Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Khloe Kardashian (collectively, the "Kardashian Parties"). In March 2013, Tillet obtained a preliminary injunction enjoining BLB’s use of the Khroma Beauty mark. BLB appealed the injunction and moved for a stay in the Ninth Circuit. As a result, the injunction was stayed until May 31, 2013. The Ninth Circuit ruled on the Company’s motion on June 7, 2013 granting Tillett’s application and ruling that the preliminary injunction would be effective as of June 7, 2013. By the time the stay expired, BLB had already changed the name of its mark from Khroma Beauty by Kourtney, Kim and Khloe to Kardashian Beauty. On August 9, 2013, BLB and the Kardashian Parties filed a joint motion to dismiss the appeal. On August 2, 2013, the parties participated in mediation in an attempt to settle the case but were unable to do so. The Court set a tentative trial date of April 22, 2014.
 
On October 28, 2013, Tillett filed a motion to amend its counterclaim to add Gold Grenade, LLC as a counter-defendant and two additional claims: conspiracy and common law trademark infringement.  The Company and the Kardashian Parties have filed an answer to Tillett’s motion.  On November 18, 2013, the Court denied Tillett’s motion to amend its counterclaim.
 
The Company filed a motion for summary judgment, contending that Tillett could not prove that it suffered any damages based on the conduct of the BLB. On December 6, 2013, the Court issued an order to show cause re: contempt and sanctions against BLB based on allegations that BLB had distributed Khroma labeled product after the effective date of the preliminary injunction. As part of that order, the Court took off calendar the pending summary judgment motion and all remaining trial and pre-trial dates. The parties filed briefs regarding the alleged contempt and an evidentiary hearing was held on January 9, 2014, after which the Court took the matter under submission. As of the date of this filing, no ruling has been issued.
 
Based on the expressed willingness of BLB to settle the cases and the likely cost to continuing litigation, the Company has accrued for total settlement costs of less than $700,000 for any potential settlement offers.
 
Registration Agreement
 
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had 300,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had 155,829,276 shares issued and 155,591,438 shares outstanding.

PPO Offering Registration Rights
 
In connection with the Merger and Offering (as defined in Notes 1, 4 and 7), the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with each of the investors participating in the Offering. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, the Company committed to file a registration statement on Form S-1, or other applicable form (the “Registration Statement”), covering the resale of (i) the Company’s common stock underlying the Bridge Warrants (as defined in Note 6), (ii) common stock underlying the PPO Units (as defined in Note 6) sold or to be sold in the Offering, and (iii) common stock underlying the Investor Warrants (as defined in Note 6) (including securities issued in the Offering as a result of the conversion of the Bridge Notes (as defined in Note 6), but not common stock that is issuable upon exercise of the broker warrants issued to the placement agent for the Offering) (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) no later than October 29, 2012 (the “Filing Date”), and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective no later than 150 days after it is filed (the “Effectiveness Date”). As of the date of this Quarterly Report the Company has not filed the Registration Statement with the SEC.

The Company will be liable for liquidated damages at the rate of 1% of the purchase price per PPO Unit paid by each investor for the Registrable Securities then held by such investor for each full period of 30 days for which the Company fails to file the registration statement by the Filing Date or if the Company fails to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Effectiveness Date (each, a “Registration Event”), until such failure is cured.

In December 2006, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for registration payment arrangements. This guidance specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with FASB guidance on accounting for contingencies. This guidance further clarifies that a financial instrument subject to a registration payment arrangement should be accounted for in accordance with GAAP without regard to the contingent obligation to transfer consideration pursuant to the registration payment arrangement. The Company applied the recognition and measurement provisions of the FASB guidance to the registration rights associated with the Registration Rights Agreement.
 
The Amendment Agreements also provided for a waiver of all penalties incurred by the Company under the terms of the PPO registration rights agreement as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file and effect the registration for resale of the private placement securities.

The Company will be liable for monetary penalties equal to 0.5% of the purchase price per Unit paid by such Investor for the Convertible Note Registrable Securities then held by each investor for each full period of period of 30 days if the Company fails to file the registration statement by the Filing Date or if the Company fails to use its reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the Effectiveness Date until such failure is cured.

The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected life assumption is based on the estimated forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is based on a blend of the volatility of the Company and similar public entities in the beauty industry. The risk-free interest rate is the yield currently available on U.S. Treasury five-year and seven-year zero-coupon issues approximating the expected term used as the input to the Black-Scholes model. FASB accounting guidance requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods as options vest, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. During the six months ended December 31, 2013, because substantially all of the Company's stock option grants vest annually, stock-based employee compensation expense includes the actual impact of forfeitures. No stock options are exercisable as of December 31, 2013. The relevant inputs used to determine the value of the stock option grants is as follows:

The fair value of the Company’s outstanding options issued to non-employees was $27,119 as of December 31, 2013. These options were valued at December 31, 2013 using a Black-Scholes model with Level 3 inputs. Expected volatility was based on the volatility of similar public entities in the beauty industry.
 
As a result, share-based compensation expense totaled $315,106 and $289,279 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and is recorded in general and administrative expenses. Share-based compensation expense totaled $161,803 and $159,131 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
NOTE 10.                      INCOME TAXES
 
The Company did not incur any income tax expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, $2,746,569 of federal and state net operating losses were available to the Company to offset future taxable income, which will expire in 2033. Given the short history of the Company and the uncertainty as to the likelihood of future taxable income, the Company has recorded a 100% valuation reserve against the anticipated recovery from the use of the net operating losses created at the inception or generated thereafter. The Company will evaluate the appropriateness of the valuation allowance on an annual basis and adjust the allowance as considered necessary.
 
The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to the impact of state income taxes and the valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
OVERVIEW
 
BOLDFACE Group, Inc. (“BGI” and, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding (“BLB”), the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a celebrity beauty licensing and branding company focused on acquiring top-tier entertainment, celebrity and designer brands for opportunities in the beauty, personal care, home and fragrance markets. We contract to design, manufacture and sell branded color cosmetics, hair preparations, fragrances, home fragrances, skin care, beauty tools and other beauty products in multiple channels of distribution.  We currently own the brand Kardashian Beauty™, and have licensed the right to use the Mario Lopez brand to develop and distribute products in the male fragrance and men’s grooming categories and the UGLYDOLL® brand to develop and distribute products in the personal care category. Our vision for our Kardashian Beauty™ brand is to offer luxury products at affordable prices through mass retail channels. We have secured distribution of Kardashian Beauty™ products in over 5,100 points of distribution with retail partners, including, among others, CVS, ULTA Beauty, Duane Reade™, Fred Meyer®, meijer®, and Ricky’s NYC, and are currently in active discussions with other retailers to distribute Kardashian Beauty™ products.
 
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS – RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Overview
 
During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, we achieved top-line gross and net revenue of $1.969 million and $1.469 million, respectively compared to $1.754 million and $1.526 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, we continued to work on the expansion of our Kardashian Beauty™ brand through securing additional international points of distribution as well as developing seasonal and core-line products that we believe are both unique and high-quality; thereby, building on our strategy of bringing luxury products at an affordable price for distribution to mass retailers. We also continued to work on the development of our lines of products that will be branded under our Mario Lopez and UGLYDOLL® licenses.
 
Kardashian Beauty™ License
 
We had net revenues of $2.738 million and a gross margin of 31% from our Kardashian Beauty ™ license for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared $1.526 million and a gross margin of 48% for the six months ended December 31, 2012.  Our gross margin as of December 31, 2013 was impacted by the name change of our Kardashian Beauty ™ brand due to the re-labeling efforts and associated costs to update our products as well as a reserve for inventory liquidation and write-offs for slow moving inventory. The Kardashian Beauty™ brand currently consists of four categories of products: eyes (38 SKUs), lips (40 SKUs), face/body (24 SKUs), and nails (46 SKUs). Since inception, we have garnered over 139 million media impressions for the Kardashian Beauty™ brand in print and online media channels.  We have secured distribution for the Kardashian Beauty™ brand in over 5,100 points of distribution with U.S. retail partners, including, among others, CVS, ULTA Beauty, Duane Reade™, Fred Meyer®, meijer®, and Ricky’s NYC. We have also secured international distribution relationships in the European Union, Middle East, Australia and South Africa.
 
We had net revenues of $1.469 million and a gross margin of 22% from our Kardashian Beauty ™ license for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared $1.526 million and a gross margin of 48% for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Our net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 represented 54% of the revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2013 primarily due to sales of seasonal items as well as improving our in-stock position for our core items in the quarter. Our gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was negatively impacted by an inventory reserve of $0.200 million for inventory liquidations as well as seasonal items that have a lower gross margin as compared to our core line.
 
Mario Lopez License
 
We are currently in the product development phase for the products that will be branded under our Mario Lopez license.  We expect to complete development and launch our product line by the end of 2014.  Accordingly, no revenue was generated from our Mario Lopez license for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
UGLYDOLL® License
 
We are currently in the product development phase for the products that will be branded under our UGLYDOLL® license.  We expect to complete development and launch our product line by the end of 2014.  Accordingly, no revenue was generated from our UGLYDOLL® license for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

FACTORING AND SUPPLY AGREEMENTS
 
Effective as of November 21, 2012, the Company and BLB each entered into a (i) Factoring Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2012 (the “Factoring Agreements”), with Star Funding, Inc. (“Star Funding”) pursuant to which Star Funding provides financing, on a discretionary basis, against our purchase orders, accounts, contract rights and other obligations for the payment of money, and (ii) Supply Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2012 (the “Supply Agreements”), with Star Funding pursuant to which Star Funding provides to us, on a discretionary basis, factoring and financial accommodations to enable the Company to purchase cosmetics and related products (collectively, the “Goods”).  Each of the Factoring and Supply Agreements is for an initial term of one year, subject to automatic one-year renewals or early termination as provided therein.
 
Under the Factoring Agreements, Star Funding has agreed to purchase certain of our accounts receivable. We agreed to pay Star Funding a factoring commission of between 1.0% and 1.5% of the gross amount of each account receivable subject to the Factoring Agreements, depending on the total gross amounts of account receivables purchased and the actual duration of the selling terms. As of December 31, 2013, $0.245 million was due from factor.
 
The financing under the Supply Agreements may be made via direct payment to the Company’s suppliers, issuance of letters of credit and/or advances to the Company.  Under the Supply Agreements, the Company is required to pay Star Funding an amount equal to 5.0% per month of all Expenses (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreements) associated with the purchase of any Client-Assembled Goods (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreements), and (b) 2.0% of all Expenses associated with the purchase of any Pre-Assembled Goods (as such term is defined in the Supply Agreements) for the initial 30-day period, provided that such fee shall be reduced to 1.0% for each subsequent 15-day period until the date on which all of the Expenses have been paid in full in cash under the Supply Agreements. As of December 31, 2013, $0 was outstanding under the Supply Agreements.
 
MERGER WITH BOLDFACE LICENSING + BRANDING
 
On July 12, 2012, our wholly-owned subsidiary, BOLDFACE Acquisition Corp. (“Acquisition Corp.”), merged with and into BLB, with BLB remaining as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of BLB common stock was cancelled and converted into 200 shares of our common stock resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares to former BLB stockholders. As part of the Merger, we also issued 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to stockholders of BLB in proportion to their ownership of shares of BLB common stock, in connection with the execution of the License Agreement with Pez-Mar, Via Mar Productions Inc., a corporation wholly owned by Mario Lopez, dated as of July 11, 2012.
 
The Merger Agreement, dated as of July 12, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), executed in connection with the Merger contained customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and Acquisition Corp. The Merger Agreement provides for a post-closing adjustment in an aggregate amount of up to 1,000,000 additional shares of our common stock issuable pro rata to BLB’s pre-Merger stockholders for any breach of the Merger Agreement by us that is discovered during the two-year period following the closing date. The Merger Agreement also provided that 5% of the 20,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “BLB Escrowed Shares”) that BLB’s pre-Merger stockholders received in the Merger in exchange for shares of BLB common stock be held in escrow for any breach of the Merger Agreement by BLB that is discovered during the two-year period following July 12, 2012 pursuant to the terms of an Escrow Agreement, dated as of July 12, 2012, among us, the pre-Merger stockholders of BLB, and Gottbetter & Partners, LLP, as Escrow Agent. As of the date of this report, no breaches of the Merger Agreement have occurred.
 
In connection with the Merger, for a period of 24 months from the closing date except in certain limited circumstances, our officers, directors, key employees and holders of 10% or more of our common stock, calculated after giving effect to the Merger, who received shares of our common stock in connection with the Merger, agreed to “lock-up”, not sell or otherwise transfer or hypothecate directly or indirectly, or effect or agree to effect any short sale of, any of their shares of our common stock received in connection with the Merger.
 
 
29

 
 
In connection with the closing of the Merger, we issued warrants to purchase 10,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Licensor Warrants”) to the licensors under the Kardashian Beauty™ license agreement.  The warrants are exercisable for a term of ten years.  The warrants were originally exercisable at $0.24 per share. Subsequently, we agreed with the warrant holders to lower the exercise price of the warrants to $0.12 per share.
 
For financial reporting purposes, the Merger represented a capital transaction of BLB or a “reverse merger” rather than a business combination, because the sellers of BLB effectively controlled the combined company immediately following the completion of the Merger. As such, BLB was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of BLB.
 
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
 
As of December 31, 2013, we incurred capital expenditures of $0.183 million, which consisted of fixtures at certain key customer retail stores and display rooms.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Revenues
 
We generated net revenues from operations of $2.738 million and $1.526 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Net sales were generated from the successful launch of our Kardashian Beauty™ brand and securing retail points of distribution domestically and international distribution relationships.
 
We generated gross and net revenues from operations of $1.969 million and $1.469 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013. We generated gross and net revenues of $1.754 million and $1.526 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, respectively. Our gross revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 improved over the three months ended December 31, 2012 as a result of sales of our core line in addition to seasonal items in the period ended December 31, 2013 as compared to only seasonal items in most points of distribution for the three months ended December 31, 2012, which were partially offset by an increase in discounts and reserves for discounts in the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Cost of Goods Sold
 
Cost of goods sold was $1.900 million and $0.794 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, or 69% and 52% of net revenues over the same period. The cost of goods sold includes direct materials, labor, overhead, and in-bound freight costs. As of December 31, 2013, we reclassified the presentation of freight-out from cost of sales and have included the expense as a selling expense in the accompanying statement of operations. Accordingly, the prior periods have been updated to reflect such reclassification. Cost of goods sold also includes a reserve of $0.200 million and $0 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for inventory write-offs and write-downs.
 
Cost of goods sold was $1.143 million and $0.794 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, or 78% and 52% of net revenues over the same period. As compared to the prior period, the cost of goods sold during the period ended December 31, 2013 was negatively impacted by relabeling costs of our Kardashian Beauty™ line and reserves for inventory liquidation.
 
Operating Expenses
 
We incurred operating expenses from operations for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $3.858 million and $3.175 million, respectively. Our operating expenses primarily consisted of general and administrative expenses, selling expenses, professional fees, depreciation and amortization expense and product development fees paid to a related party. The increase in our operating expenses is due to the increase in royalty expense, general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization expense related to our fixtures in customer locations, and product development fees to a related party. Our general and administrative expense for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was increased over the prior year primarily due to an increased reserve for penalties and settlements for our ongoing litigation (see Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q).
 
We incurred operating expenses from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $2.053 million and $2.094 million, respectively. Our operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were improved over the three months ended December 31, 2012 due to lower professional fees and selling expenses, primarily due to lower freight-out costs, offset by higher product development fees and increased general and administrative expense as a result of reserves for penalties and settlements as discussed above.
 
Losses from Operations
 
We incurred operating losses of $3.019 million and $2.444 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The main components of the recorded operating loss during both periods were general and administrative expenses, professional fees, depreciation and amortization expense and product development fees paid to a related party.
 
Our operating loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1.727 million and $1.362 million, respectively. Our operating loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily impacted by our gross margin of 22% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to 48% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.
 
Other (Income) / Expense
 
We incurred other (income) / expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $(0.463) million and $0.643 million, respectively. Our other (income)/expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0.038 million and $0.703 million, respectively.  Our other (income) / expense primarily consisted of non-cash interest expense and derivative liability gains.
 
 
30

 
 
Net Losses
 
We incurred net losses in the amounts of $2.556 million and $3.086 million, of $0.02 and $0.04 per basic and diluted share for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to our losses from operations and net interest expense, offset by a non-cash derivative liability gain.
 
Our net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1.765 million and $2.065 million, respectively, primarily due to our losses from operations, which were driven by higher cost of goods and increased general and administrative expense as a result of reserves for penalties and settlements partially offset by lower selling expenses as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2012.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $0.026 million compared to $0.389 million as of June 30, 2013. We had negative working capital of $2.653 million at December 31, 2013 compared to positive working capital $0.047 million, including $0.589 million and $0.023 million of current portion of convertible debt net of debt discounts, at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The change is attributable to investments in inventory as we continue to grow the Kardashian Beauty™ brand, an increase in due from factor and an increase in short term debt due to our recent financings.
 
As of December 31, 2013, our total assets were $3.652 million, our total shareholders’ deficit was $3.035 million and our total liabilities were $6.687 million compared to $4.382 million in total assets, $0.849 million in shareholders’ deficit and $5.231 million in total liabilities as of June 30, 2013.
 
As of December 31, 2013, our assets were comprised of $0.254 million in accounts receivable and due from factor, $2.357 million in inventory and prepaid inventory, and $0.290 million in deferred financing costs. Our total liabilities were comprised primarily of $3.643 million in accounts payable, $1.068 million in accrued expenses and other liabilities, $0.528 million in long-term liabilities related to the value of our derivative instruments, and debentures in the net amount of $1.214 million.
 
As of June 30, 2013, our assets were comprised of $0.264 million in accounts receivable and due from factor, $2.207 million in inventory and prepaid inventory, $0.379 million in prepaid royalty, and $0.359 million in deferred financing costs. Our total liabilities were comprised primarily of $2.482 million in accounts payable and $1.660 million in long-term liabilities related to the value of our derivative instruments, debentures in the net amount of $0.282 million and accrued expenses of $0.807 million.
 
We have limited cash reserves and need a substantial amount of capital to implement our business plan. To date, we have financed our operations from proceeds generated by the private placement of equity and convertible debt instruments and through our factoring line of credit. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates continuing to have operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) payments under existing licenses, (ii) investments in inventory for our Kardashian Beauty™ brand; (iii) research and development costs associated with new product offerings, and (iv) management and consulting costs, as well as general administrative expenses, including the costs of being a public company. We intend to finance these expenses by raising additional capital and generating sufficient revenues to meet our short-term and long-term operating requirements. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity and/or debt financing and/or additional short-term borrowing.
 
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2013, we used net cash in operating activities of $0.667 million related to losses in net income and investments in inventory offset primarily by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. We spent $3.011 million for operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2012 in relation to our net loss as well as investments in inventory and prepaid inventory, increases in accounts receivable for the launch of our Kardashian Beauty™ line, which were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
 
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.183 million and $0.140 million during the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Net cash used in investing activities was attributable to the acquisition of property and equipment.
 
 
31

 
 
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.488 million and $3.241 million during the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily attributable to a convertible note we issued to an existing investor. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was attributable to short term loans and proceeds from convertible debt.
 
GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from its planned operations to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately attain profitability. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent upon its ability to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing or ability to generate sufficient revenue to cover its operating expenses. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all.
 
To date, the Company has financed its operations from the proceeds generated from the private placement of equity, convertible debt instruments as well as through its factoring arrangements. In connection with the execution of its business plan, the Company anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) payments under existing licenses, (ii) investments in inventory for our Kardashian Beauty™ brand; (iii) research and development costs associated with new product offerings, and (iv) management and consulting costs, as well as general administrative expenses, including the costs of being a public company. The Company intends to finance these expenses by raising additional capital and generating sufficient revenues to meet short-term and long-term operating requirements. If additional financings are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict its business operations. The Company currently does not have a specific plan of how it will obtain such funding; however, it anticipates that additional funding will be in the form of equity and/or debt financings and/or additional short-term borrowings. As such, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company’s auditors expressed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report dated October 15, 2013, for the period ending June 30, 2013.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
The presentation of our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete listing of these policies is included in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended December 31, 2013 included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Below, we have identified the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial statements, results of operations and cash flows, and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
 
Use of Estimates
 
In preparing our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the fair value of warrant liabilities, debt discount and the ability to realize deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
As required by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification   (“ASC”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, we expect to recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is probable.
 
We offer our customers a variety of sales and incentive programs, including discounts, allowances, coupons, slotting fees, and co-op advertising; such amounts are recorded as a reduction in revenue over the period in which revenue is recognized. We expensed $0.783 million and $0.228 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and such amounts are included in discounts in the accompanying statement of operations. We expensed $0.500 million and $0.228 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and such amounts are included in discounts in the accompanying statement of operations.

Fair Value Measurements
 
Our financial instruments are primarily composed of cash, accounts receivable, factoring line of credit, accounts payable, and its convertible notes and warrants. The fair value of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, factoring line of credit, accounts payable and convertible notes closely approximates their carrying value due to their short maturities.

The valuation techniques utilized for the warrants and beneficial conversion feature of its convertible notes are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related asset or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

We utilize observable market inputs (quoted market prices) when measuring fair value whenever possible. Our warrants and the beneficial conversion feature for its convertible notes are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company's accounting and finance department.

As of December 31, 2013, there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 from other levels.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable balances represent payments due to us for previously recognized net sales, reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances, which are estimated to be uncollectible at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. We grant credit terms in the normal course of business to its customers and do not require collateral or other security to support credit sales.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined based on historical experience and ongoing evaluations of our receivables and evaluations of the risks of payment. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded against accounts receivable balances when they are deemed uncollectible. When accounts are deemed significantly past due and uncollectible, the accounts receivable balances are written down for the amount deemed to be uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously reserved are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when received. One customer accounted for 69% and 94% of outstanding accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, all of our accounts receivable balances were deemed to be collectible.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories include items which are considered salable or usable in future periods, and are stated at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being based on standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Costs include direct materials, direct labor and overhead (e.g., indirect labor, rent and utilities, depreciation, purchasing, receiving, inspection and quality control), and in-bound freight costs. We periodically review the value of items in inventory and provide write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on our assessment of market conditions Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold.
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2013 and the period ended June 30, 2013, we reserved $0.200 million and $0.366 million, respectively, for write-offs. During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and the period ended June 30, 2013, we reserved $0.200 million and $0.366 million, respectively, for write-offs.
 
The inventory write-off as of June 30, 2013 was primarily due to the name change of our Kardashian Beauty ™ brand, which forced the Company to destroy or mark for destruction finished goods and work-in-process. Total inventories as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were $2.050 million and $1.949 million, respectively.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Fixed assets as of December 31, 2013 consisted of costs incurred by us in connection with installing display fixtures at certain key customer display rooms and retail stores. The display fixtures are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over two years, which approximates the estimated useful lives of such assets. Display fixtures maintained at customer display rooms and retail stores amounted to $0.617 million, net of accumulated depreciation, at December 31, 2013. Depreciation expense amounted to $0.235 million and $0.012 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013, and is included in depreciation & amortization expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Depreciation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 amounted to $0.127 million and $0.012 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013, and is included in depreciation & amortization expense in the accompanying statements of operations.
 
Advertising
 
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising expenses amounted to $0.088 million and $0.291 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Total advertising expenses amounted to $0.053 million and $0.100 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Our advertising expenses in the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 were lower than the prior period due to the reduced spend on print advertising and photo shoot expenses during the current period.

Selling Expenses and Commissions
 
Selling expenses are expensed as incurred. Total selling expenses amounted to $0.351 million and $0.342 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Total selling expenses amounted to $0.254 million and $0.342 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company reclassified the presentation of freight-out from cost of sales and has included the expense as a selling expense under operating expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Accordingly, the prior periods have been updated to reflect such reclassification. Shipping expense is included in selling expense under operating expenses and amounted to $0.075 million and $0.263 million during the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Total shipping expense was $0.043 million and $0.263 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our shipping expense for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was significantly impacted due to one-time airfreight costs for outbound shipments.
 
Selling commissions are expensed as incurred. As of December 31, 2013, the Company reclassified the presentation of commissions and fees from general and administrative expenses and has included the expense as a selling expense under operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, the prior periods have been updated to reflect such reclassification. Total selling commissions amounted to $0.074 million for each of the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are included in selling expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Total selling commissions amounted to $0.048 million and $0.074 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our selling commissions for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were lower over the prior period as a result of a different mix of our sales from domestic versus international sales where we do not pay a sales commission as well as increased discounts in the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Deferred Financing Costs
 
Deferred financing costs represent fees paid in connection with obtaining short-term and long-term loans (see Notes 4 and 5 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q). These fees are amortized using a method that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related financing.
 
In connection with an offering of debentures that closed in August 2013, we paid $50,000 to the investor in the offering and $12,064 in legal fees, collectively, to Loeb & Loeb and Gottbetter & Partners.
 
In connection with an offering of debentures that closed in June 2013, we paid Gottbetter Capital Markets (“GCM”) who acted as the sole placement agent for the offering a commission of 7.2% of the first $1,400,000 funds raised in the offering for a total payment of $100,000. We also issued 1.9 million five-year warrants to GCM on the same terms as the warrants offered to the investors in the offering, with an exercise price of $0.082. In addition, we paid $117,446 in legal fees to Gottbetter & Partners and $85,207 in professional fees to the lead investor in the offering.
 
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, deferred financing costs of $0.290 million and $0.359 million, respectively, net of accumulated amortization, are presented on the accompanying balance sheet. Amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.131 million and $0.063 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in interest expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Amortization expense for deferred financing costs was $0.069 million and $0.063 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The remaining deferred financing costs will be fully amortized by March 1, 2015.
 
Debt Discount
 
We may record debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of convertible debt (see Note 5 and 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.
 
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, convertible debt, net of unamortized debt discounts, was $1.214 million and $0.282 million, respectively. Amortization of debt discounts of $0.496 million and $0.053 million is included in interest expense in the accompanying statement of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense for debt discounts was $0.255 million and $0.053 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The remaining debt discounts will be fully amortized by March 1, 2015. See Note 5 and 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
GAAP requires derivative instruments embedded in convertible debt or equity instruments, to be bifurcated and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, we use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which we estimate to approximate the fair value using the Binomial Lattice model. In assessing the debt instruments with characteristics of liability and equity, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and if there is a beneficial conversion feature. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, we estimate the fair value of the embedded derivative instruments. The warrant liability is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using level 2 inputs (see Notes 5 and 6 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q).
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had reserved 69,682,783 shares of common stock for issuance of common stock upon exercise of our outstanding warrants.
 
As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of all warrants issued was estimated at $0.528 million. The gain/(loss) in the fair value of the warrants of $1.246 million and $(0.347) million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, was recorded in the long-term liability section of the balance sheet and recorded as a gain in the derivative liability section on the statement of operations. The gain/(loss) in the fair value of the warrants was $0.375 million and $(0.407) million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk
 
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, factoring lines of credit, convertible debt, accounts payable, other current assets and liabilities, and short-term loans. The fair value of these instruments approximates their carrying value due to their relatively short maturities.
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. We may maintain cash balances that at times may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Three customers accounted for approximately 33%, 25% and 24% of the Company’s net revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2013. Three customers accounted for approximately 30%, 29% and 18% of the Company’s net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Three customers accounted for approximately 36%, 20% and 17% of the Company’s net revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012.
 
Accounts receivable for one customer represented 69% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance, prior to accrued discounts, as of December 31, 2013. Accounts receivable for one customer represented 94% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2013.
 
We have not experienced any losses in these accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk in this area.
 
License Acquisition Costs

License acquisition costs represent legal fees paid in connection with obtaining our license agreements (see Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q). These fees are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of each license agreement.

As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, license acquisition costs, net of amortization, were $20,298 and $24,504, respectively on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Amortization of license acquisition costs of $4,206 and $1,342 is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Amortization of license acquisition costs was $3,535 and $671 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
We evaluate long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. In such cases, the carrying value of these assets is adjusted to their estimated fair value and assets held for sale are adjusted to their estimated fair value less selling expenses. No impairment losses of long-lived assets or intangible assets were recognized for the six months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Income Taxes
 
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We provide a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when circumstances indicate that it is no longer more likely than not that such assets will be realized. As we provided a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, there was no net impact on net loss or net loss per share as of December 31, 2013.
 
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code can limit the amount of net operating losses, which may be utilized if certain changes to a company’s ownership occur. While the Company underwent a shift in ownership in 2013 as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company has not incurred any limitations on its ability to utilize its net operating losses under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, it may incur limitations in the future if there is a change in ownership.
 
Net Loss Per Share

Basic net income / (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income / (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Our potential dilutive shares, which include common stock options, common stock warrants and convertible debt have not been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share for all periods where there was a net loss as the result would be antidilutive. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce net loss per share.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
There have been no recently issued accounting pronouncements that impact us.
 
INFLATION
 
The effect of inflation on our revenues and operating results has not been significant.
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, because of the identification of the material weakness described below, management concluded that as of December 31, 2013 our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective.
 
As reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, our management identified a control deficiency relating to inadequate accounting resources. Management believes that this material weakness is primarily due to the limited number of accounting personnel. To mitigate the effects of this deficiency, we rely heavily on the use of external consultants.
 
Subject to the availability of funds, we plan to hire additional personnel with financial accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel. If and when implemented, our internal accounting personnel will be responsible for performing regular internal audits of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, internal control over financial reporting and performing other financial functions.
 
Management believes that hiring additional accounting personnel who have financial expertise and knowledge will result in a much more knowledgeable accounting staff. Additional accounting personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances and better enable us to deal with any personnel losses within our accounting staff. We believe this will greatly decrease any disclosure control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.
 
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
 
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
We may, from time to time, be a party to litigation that arises in the normal course of our business operations.  Except as set forth below, there are no legal proceedings, governmental actions, administrative actions, investigations or claims pending against us or that we are a party to that, in the opinion of our management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
 
On November 19, 2012, an action entitled Chroma Makeup Studio LLC. v. BOLDFACE Group, Inc. and BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division. Chroma Makeup Studio LLC (“Chroma”) alleged that our use of the Khroma mark, alleged that our use of the term Khroma, including the marks Khroma Beauty and Khroma Beauty By Kourtney, Kim and Khloe (the “Khroma Beauty Marks”), infringes upon Chroma’s rights in its Chroma mark. The complaint included claims for trademark infringement under the Lanham Act and unfair competition under applicable California law. On December 5, 2012, Chroma filed a motion for preliminary injunction to enjoin our use of the Khroma Beauty Marks, including the promotion and sale of products offered under such marks during the pendency of the litigation. On January 23, 2013, the court denied Chroma’s motion. Prior to deciding the motion, the court ordered the parties to appear at a scheduling conference on March 25, 2013 to discuss the proposed pretrial discovery plan and address other pretrial issues. The scheduling conference occurred on March 25, 2013, and the court issued a scheduling order setting November 18, 2013 as the end of the discovery period, January 6, 2014 as the deadline to file dispositive motions, and a tentative trial date of April 22, 2014. On December 11, 2013, following private mediation, the parties entered into a settlement agreement and mutual general release (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Chroma to settle any and all claims between the Company and Chroma.  Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the parties have agreed that the terms of the Settlement Agreement are to remain confidential.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, and with no admission of any liability, the Company has agreed to pay Chroma a cash amount over a period of one year commencing on December 31, 2013 and ending on December 31, 2014. The total cash amount that the Company has agreed to pay Chroma is lower than the amount the Company reserved for any payments to be made in connection the dispute.
 
On November 30, 2012, we filed a complaint for a declaratory judgment in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division entitled BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding v. By Lee Tillett, Inc. BLB’s complaint requests a declaration from the court that (1) BLB’s use of the Khroma term, including the marks Kardashian Khroma and Khroma Beauty By Kourtney, Kim and Khloe (the “Khroma Marks”), does not infringe on By Lee Tillett, Inc.’s (“Tillett”) rights in its Kroma mark, and (2) BLB’s two pending trademark applications for the Khroma Marks should be allowed to register with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). On January 9, 2013, Tillett filed an answer and counterclaims for (1) trademark infringement, (2) false designation of origin, (3) trademark infringement, and (4) unfair competition under applicable California law. In addition to BLB, Tillett’s counterclaims are made against BGI and Kimasprincess Inc., 2Die4Kourt Inc., Khlomoney Inc., Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian (the “Kardashian Parties”).
 
BLB and the Kardashian Parties filed an answer to Tillett’s counterclaims on February 11, 2013, and Tillett contemporaneously filed a motion for preliminary injunction to enjoin the Company’s use of the Khroma   Marks. The Court heard the motion on March 11, 2013, and granted the motion after finding that Tillett had demonstrated a likelihood of success on its trademark infringement claim and related claims, and a likelihood of irreparable harm in the absence of injunctive relief. In the order granting the injunction, the Court enjoined BLB and its affiliates from making, promoting, or selling any goods or services using the Khroma trademark, although it did not prohibit the Company’s retailers from selling the Khroma products already in their inventories. On March 20, 2013, BLB filed an ex-parte application for clarification of the court’s order granting the motion and setting forth the terms of the injunction. With its application, BLB submitted a proposed order that would limit the scope of the injunction to the United States only, and make clear that it was not intended to apply to overseas sales or promotion. BLB ex-parte application is still pending and the Court has not yet issued a ruling or set a hearing date.

The Court ordered counsel for the parties to appear for a scheduling conference on March 25, 2013, following which the Court filed a preliminary scheduling order setting November 18, 2013 as the last day of the parties’ discovery period, January 6, 2014 as the deadline to file dispositive motions, and a tentative trial date of April 22, 2014. Following the scheduling conference, the discovery period opened and the parties exchanged requests for documents and information. BLB and the Kardashian Parties served their respective objections and responses to Tillett’s discovery requests on April 29, 2013. The parties have entered into a stipulated protective order concerning the production of confidential, proprietary, and private information during the discovery process.
 
In response to the injunction issued by the court, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the “9th Circuit”) on March 15, 2013 to overturn the district court’s March 11, 2013 decision. The Company filed its opening brief with the 9th Circuit on April 19, 2013. On March 18, 2013, the Company also filed a motion to stay with the 9th Circuit, requesting a stay of the injunction during the pendency of the Company’s appellate case. The 9th Circuit ruled on the Company’s motion on June 7, 2013 granting Tillett’s application and ruling that the preliminary injunction would be effective as of June 7, 2013
 
On October 28, 2013, Tillett filed a motion to amend its counterclaim to add Gold Grenade, LLC as a counter-defendant and two additional claims: conspiracy and common law trademark infringement.  The Company and the Kardashian Parties have filed an answer to Tillet’s motion.  On November 18, 2013, the Court denied Tillet’s motion to amend its counterclaim.
 
The Company filed a motion for summary judgment, contending that Tillett could not prove that it suffered any damages based on the conduct of the BLB. On December 6, 2013, the Court issued an order to show cause re: contempt and sanctions against BLB based on allegations that BLB had distributed Khroma labeled product after the effective date of the preliminary injunction. As part of that order, the Court took off the calendar the pending summary judgment motion and all remaining trial and pre-trial dates. The parties filed briefs regarding the alleged contempt and an evidentiary hearing was held on January 9, 2014, after which the Court took the matter under submission. As of the date of this filing, no ruling has been issued.
 
Based on the existing status of the two actions, our management believes it has adequately reserved for these matters such that there would not be a material effect on future financial statements.
 
ITEM 1A.            RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in shares of our common stock is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk.  We face a variety of risks that may affect our operations or financial results and many of those risks are driven by factors that we cannot control or predict.  Before investing in our common stock you should carefully consider the following risks, together with the financial and other information contained in this Form 10-Q.  If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
 
RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANY
 
We have a limited operating history.
 
Our wholly-owned operating subsidiary, BLB, was incorporated on April 26, 2012.  BLB has a limited operating history in an industry characterized by changing consumer preferences, evolving industry standards and frequent introductions of new products and services.  As of December 31, 2013, BLB had acquired three licenses: (i) the Kardashian Beauty™ license, (ii) the Mario Lopez license and (iii) the UGLYDOLL® license.
 
The Company expects to acquire additional celebrity and designer brand licenses although no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to do so. Our limited operating history, and our dependence on a limited number of licenses and the uncertainty surrounding our ability to acquire additional licenses may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
 
38

 
 
Our operating results are unpredictable and are expected to fluctuate in the future.
 
Our operating results are unpredictable and are expected to fluctuate in the future as a result of a number of factors, many of which may be beyond our control. As a result, operating results for any period should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance.  The following factors may affect our operating results:
 
·           our ability to deliver products in a timely manner and in sufficient volumes;
 
·           our ability to recognize product trends;
 
·           our loss of one or more significant distributors or customers;
 
·           the introduction of successful new products by our competitors;
 
·           our inability to maintain or increase awareness and recognition of our brands; and
 
·           adverse media reports on the use of our products.
 
Because our business is constantly evolving, our historical operating results may not be useful in predicting our future operating results.
 
Our working capital is limited and we may need additional financing to continue our operations.
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had negative working capital of $2.653 million, which includes the current portion of amortized debt discounts of $0.596 million.  We require substantial working capital to fund our operations, and additional capital will be necessary for the Company to continue its operations. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts required and on acceptable terms, or at all, or raise additional capital, we will need to significantly reduce the scope of our operations, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
If unknown liabilities should arise in connection with the Merger and the split-off of our wholly-owned subsidiary BOLDFACE Split Corp., we may be required to divert cash from other business purposes to discharge such liabilities, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
In connection with the Merger, we split off (the “Split-Off”) our wholly-owned subsidiary, BOLDFACE Split Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Split Corp.”). The Split-Off was accomplished through the exchange of 189,781,000 shares of our common stock held by Noah Levinson for all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Split Corp.  All of our assets and liabilities immediately following the Merger, excluding any assets and liabilities of BLB assumed in the Merger, were transferred to Split Corp.
 
Although we transferred certain assets and liabilities relating to our pre-merger shell operations in connection with the Merger and the Split-off, there can be no assurance that such transfer will release us of all such liabilities.  If Split Corp. does not pay such liabilities or unknown liabilities arise, we may be required to divert cash from other business purposes to discharge such liabilities, which may have an adverse effect on our current business, results of operation and financial condition.
 
Our failure to manage our growth could place a significant strain on our operational and financial resources.
 
Our growth has placed a significant strain on our operational and financial resources and has placed significant demands on our current management and personnel.  In order to manage growth, we will be required to expand existing operations, particularly with respect to product development and marketing, and to improve existing, and implement new, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls.
 
We have experienced a significant strain on our resources because of difficulties in hiring and retaining skilled personnel necessary to support our business and the continued development of our financial and information management systems.  Difficulties we may encounter in dealing successfully with the above risks could adversely affect our operations. We cannot offer any assurance that our current personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our future operations or that management will be able to identify, hire, train, retain, motivate and manage required personnel.  A failure to manage our growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our success depends on our key personnel and our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel.
 
Our success depends on our ability to retain our key personnel including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  The unexpected loss of one or more of our key employees could adversely affect our business.  Our success also depends on our ability to identify, attract, hire, train, motivate, and retain other highly qualified personnel.  We may not be successful in attracting, assimilating or retaining qualified personnel in the future, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our business.
 
Our success depends on our ability to execute our business strategy. If we are unable to raise additional capital, our ability to fully implement our business strategy will be limited.
 
Our ability to implement our business strategy is dependent upon a number of factors, including our ability to:
 
 
develop high-quality brands in connection with our current licenses;
     
 
establish, maintain and increase our product sales and market share, and strengthen the recognition of our brands;
     
 
implement appropriate product mix and pricing strategies and realize the anticipated benefits from these strategies;
     
 
realize efficiencies across our supply chain, marketing processes, sales model and organizational structure;
     
 
effectively manage our inventory and implement initiatives to reduce inventory levels, including the potential impact on cash flows and obsolescence;
     
 
acquire additional celebrity and designer brand licenses; and
     
 
secure short and long-term financing at attractive rates.
 
There can be no assurance that any of these initiatives will be successfully and fully executed in the amounts or within the time periods that we expect.
 
We rely on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of our sales, and the loss of or a material reduction in purchase volume by any of these customers would adversely affect our sales and results of operations.
 
For the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, three customers accounted for approximately 77% and 83%, respectively, of our net revenues.  Our largest customer for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, accounted for 29% and 33%, respectively, of our sales.  The loss of any of our major customers, a significant reduction in purchases by any major customer, or, any serious financial difficulty of a major customer, would have a material adverse effect on our sales and results of operations.
 
We are currently defendants in one pending trademark infringement action.  If we are unable to successfully defend against or settle these actions, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
 
On November 30, 2012, we filed a complaint for a declaratory judgment in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division entitled BOLDFACE Licensing + Branding v. By Lee Tillett, Inc. BLB’s complaint requests a declaration from the Court that (1) BLB’s use of the Khroma Marks does not infringe on Tillett’s rights in its Kroma mark, and (2) BLB’s pending trademark applications for the Khroma Marks should be allowed to register with the USPTO. On January 9, 2013, Tillett filed an answer and counterclaims for (1) trademark infringement, (2) false designation of origin, (3) trademark infringement, and (4) unfair competition under applicable California law. In addition to BLB, Tillett’s counterclaims are made against the following additional parties: BGI and the Kardashian Parties.  The parties are currently in the discovery phase, and the court has set a tentative trial date of April 22, 2014.

If we are unable to settle these actions or successfully defend against these actions, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
 
For additional disclosure relating to these actions, please see Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
 
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
In its audit report, dated October 15, 2013, for the period ending June 30, 2013, Friedman LLP, our former independent registered public accounting firm, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our planned operations to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately attain profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on our ability to raise additional capital or obtain additional financing and our ability to generate sufficient revenue to cover our operating expenses. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all.
 
To date, we have financed our operations from proceeds generated by the private placement of equity and convertible debt instruments and through our factoring line of credit. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) payments under existing licenses, (ii) investments in inventory for our Kardashian Beauty™ brand; (iii) research and development costs associated with new product offerings, and (iv) management and consulting costs, including the cost of being a public company. We intend to finance these expenses by raising additional capital and generating sufficient revenues to meet our short-term and long-term operating requirements. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity and/or debt financing and/or additional short-term borrowing. As such, these factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
As of December 31, 2013, our management determined that certain disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective, which could result in material misstatements of our financial statements.
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. As of December 31, 2013, our management determined that some of our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to weaknesses in our financial closing process.
 
When our resources permit, we intend to implement remedial measures designed to address the ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, including (i) hiring additional individuals with accounting, auditing and financial reporting experience, (ii) segregating our internal and external financial reporting among a larger finance and accounting staff, (iii) implementing more specific segregation of our accounting software and (iv) providing historical information more timely.  We have also adopted and implemented written procedures to document retailer purchase orders, inventory buying, product discounts and product transition flow, invoice review, cash and expense management, as well as an analyses of our cost of goods sold.  If these remedial measures are insufficient to address the ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, or if material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls are discovered or occur in the future, we may fail to meet our future reporting obligations on a timely basis, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements, and we may be required to restate our prior period financial results.
 
 
41

 
 
We can give no assurance that the measures we plan to take in the future will remediate the ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures or that any material weaknesses will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or adequate disclosure controls and procedures.  In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our disclosure controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements.
 
Upon completion of our offering of 8% original issue discount senior secured convertible debentures (the “Debentures”) and related warrants, we incurred significant debt obligations. The terms of the Debentures impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us and our subsidiaries, which may materially and adversely affect our business.
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had total debt, prior to debt discounts, of approximately $2.296 million under the Debentures, plus accrued interest of approximately $0.031 million. In connection with the sale of the Debentures, the investors who purchased our 12% secured convertible notes in December 2012, March 2013 and April 2013 in an aggregate principal amount of $3.380 million converted all of their 12% secured convertible notes (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon) into shares of our common stock.
 
The terms of the Debentures and the Factoring Agreements and the Supply Agreements and related agreements we entered into with Star Funding, Inc. impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us, which limit our ability, among other things, to:
 
 
·
incur additional indebtedness;
     
 
·
pay dividends or make distributions to our shareholders;
     
 
·
incur liens that would rank senior in priority to, or pari passu with, the obligations under the Debentures; and
     
 
·
sell or otherwise dispose of any assets or rights of the Company or any subsidiary, subject to certain exceptions.
   
          
 
·          
These restrictions may affect our ability to operate our business, including, among other things:
     
 
·
making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the Debentures and our other indebtedness;
     
 
·          
limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions or other general corporate requirements;
     
 
·          
requiring a substantial portion of our cash flows to be dedicated to debt service payments instead of other purposes;
     
 
·          
limiting our financial flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in the industry in which we compete;
     
 
·          
placing us at a disadvantage compared to other, less leveraged competitors; and
     
 
·          
increasing our cost of borrowing.
 
 
42

 
 
We may not be able to generate a sufficient amount of cash flow to meet our debt service obligations, including the Debentures and the Chroma Settlement.
 
Our ability to make scheduled payments or to refinance our debt obligations with respect to the Debentures, the Chroma Settlement, and our other indebtedness depends on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn is subject to certain financial, competitive, business and other factors which may be beyond our control.  If our cash flow and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, including the Debentures, and our other commitments, we could face substantial liquidity problems and may be forced to reduce or delay scheduled expansions and capital expenditures, sell material assets or operations, obtain additional capital or restructure our debt.
 
In addition, we cannot assure you that our operating performance, cash flow and capital resources will be sufficient for payment of our debt in the future.  Any refinancing of our indebtedness could be at higher interest rates and may require us to comply with more restrictive covenants which could further restrict our business operations.  In the event that we are required to dispose of material assets or operations or restructure our debt to meet our debt service obligations, we cannot provide assurance that we could effect any of these actions on a timely basis, on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that these actions would be sufficient to repay our debt service obligations.
 
If we cannot make scheduled payments on our debts, we will be in default and, as a result, our debt holders could declare all outstanding principal and interest to be due and payable and we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
The beauty business is highly competitive, and if we are unable to compete effectively, our results of operations could suffer.
 
We face vigorous competition from companies throughout the United States and the world, including multinational consumer product companies.  Most of these competitors have greater resources than we do and may be able to respond to changing business and economic conditions more quickly than us.  Competition in the beauty business is based on the pricing of products, innovation, perceived value, service to the consumer, promotional activities, advertising, special events, new product introductions, e-commerce and m-commerce initiatives and other activities.  It is difficult for us to predict the timing and scale of our competitors’ actions in these areas.  Our ability to compete also depends on the continued strength of our brands, our ability to attract and retain key talent and other personnel and the efficiency of our manufacturing channels and distribution networks.  If we are unable to compete effectively, our results of operations could suffer.
 
A general economic downturn or sudden disruption in business conditions may affect consumer purchases of discretionary items and the financial strength of customers that are retailers, which could adversely affect our financial results.
 
Consumer spending is affected by a number of factors, including general economic conditions, inflation, interest rates, energy costs, and consumer confidence generally, all of which are beyond our control.  Consumer purchases of discretionary items tend to decline during recessionary periods, when disposable income is lower. A decline in consumer purchases of discretionary items may impact sales of our products and our customers that are retailers.  A downturn in the economies in which we expect to sell our products or a sudden disruption of business conditions in those economies could adversely affect our sales and profitability.
 
Our failure to effectively anticipate and respond to market trends and changes in consumer preferences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our success depends in large part on our ability to anticipate, gauge and react in a timely and effective manner to changes in consumer spending patterns and preferences for beauty and other consumer products that we market and sell.  We must continually work to develop, produce and market new products, maintain and enhance the recognition of our brands, achieve a favorable mix of products, and refine our approach as to how and where we market and sell our products.  Although we devote effort and resources to analyzing and responding to consumer spending patterns and preferences, consumer spending patterns and preferences are difficult to predict and can change rapidly.  If we are unable to anticipate and respond to trends in the market for beauty and other consumer products and changing consumer demands, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.
 
 
43

 
 
Furthermore, material shifts or decreases in market demand for our products could result in an inability to sell our products in sufficient quantities or at anticipated prices.  In addition, shifts and decreases in market demand for our products could result in increased product returns by our customers and excess inventory levels.  To the extent that we experience any of these risks, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
An increase in product returns could negatively impact our operating results and profitability.
 
We permit the return of damaged or defective products and accept limited amounts of product returns in certain instances. While such returns have historically been nominal and within management’s expectations and the provisions established, future return rates may differ from those experienced in the past. Any significant increase in damaged or defective products or expected returns could have a material adverse effect on our operating results for the period or periods in which such returns are realized.
 
Our success depends, in part, on the quality and safety of our products.
 
Our success depends, in part, on the quality and safety of our products.  If our products are found to be defective or unsafe, or if they otherwise fail to meet our consumers’ standards, our relationships with our customers or consumers could suffer, the appeal of one or more of our brands could be diminished, and we could lose sales and become subject to liability claims, any of which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
A disruption in operations or our supply chain could adversely affect our business and financial results.
 
As we are a company engaged in the manufacture (through third-party manufacturers) and distribution of beauty products, our operations are subject to the risks inherent in manufacturing and distribution activities, including industrial accidents, environmental events, strikes and other labor disputes, disruptions in supply chain or information systems, loss or impairment of key manufacturing sites, product quality control, safety, licensing requirements and other regulatory issues, as well as natural disasters and other external factors over which we have little or no control.  If such an event were to occur, it could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our success depends upon market awareness of our brands.
 
Development and awareness of the Company will depend largely on our success in creating recognition of the brands we manufacture and distribute. If our distributors and customers, and ultimately our consumers, do not perceive us as a company that manufactures and distributes high-quality affordable beauty products, we may be unsuccessful in promoting and maintaining our brands. Our business is significantly dependent on our licenses with celebrities and designer brands.  In addition, our ability to successfully market, promote and sell our products is tied, to a certain extent, to the popularity of our celebrity licensors.  Any negative publicity associated with our celebrity licensors could affect our ability to market and distribute our products.
 
To attract and retain customers and consumers and to promote and maintain a competitive position, we may find it necessary to increase our marketing, networking, and advertising budgets and otherwise to increase substantially our financial commitment to creating and maintaining brand loyalty among distributors, customers and consumers. We will continue to devote substantial financial and other resources to increase and maintain the awareness of our brands.  However, we cannot offer any assurance that our efforts will be successful and our inability to increase and maintain awareness of our brands could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
