Notes to Financial Statements

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are derived primarily by licensing software products in the form of online and downloadable games for PC, Mac and smartphone platforms. The Company distributes its products primarily through online games portals and smartphone device manufacturers (“distribution partners”), which market the games to end-users. The nature of our business is such that we sell games basically through four distribution outlets – WEB portals, brick and mortar retail distributors, mobile distributors and publishers, and our own web portal, www.freezetag.com.

Product Sales (web and mobile revenues)

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of our products upon the transfer of title and risk of loss to its customers, and once any performance obligations have been completed. Revenue from product sales is recognized after deducting the estimated allowance for returns and price protection.

Licensing Revenues (retail revenues- royalties)

Third-party licensees distribute games under license agreements with the Company. We receive royalties from the licensees as a result. We recognize these royalties as revenues upon receipt of the monthly or quarterly (varies per distribution partner) revenue reports provided by the partner. Revenue from licensing/royalties is recognized after deducting the estimated allowance for returns and price protection.

Some license agreements require a royalty advance from the licensee/distributor in which case the original advance is recognized as a liability and royalty revenue is deducted from the advance as earned.

Other Revenues

Other revenues primarily include Ad game revenue and work-for-hire game related revenue. We derive our advertising game revenue from certain of our partners that offer our games free of charge to consumers in exchange for the consumers being exposed to advertising embedded in our games. In this way, we do not receive revenue for the sale of our games, but rather a percentage of the “advertising” revenue generated by these player views. This method of generating revenue is essentially the same as traditional radio or television advertising where consumers are allowed to enjoy content for “free” but are forced to watch (or listen) to advertising before, in between and at the end of the programming content.

Additionally, we derive some revenue from “work-for-hire” projects. Some of our partners occasionally ask us to render “work-for-hire” services for them such as preparing packaging materials. For example, a retail game and DVD publisher hired us to create several designs for printed packages that were used for games published by the publisher but not developed by us. For this work, we charge a one-time, fixed fee for each package design.

The Company recognizes this revenue once all performance obligations have been completed. In addition, persuasive evidence of an arrangement must exist and collection of the related receivable must be probable.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with current accounting standards when an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is probable.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures these balances, up to $250,000. All of the Company’s cash balances at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were insured. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no cash equivalents.

Allowances for Returns, Price Protection, and Doubtful Accounts

Because the majority of our business is derived through online portals (such as Big Fish Games) and wireless online app stores (such as Apple), there is no physical product, other than the downloadable bits of our games that is involved in the customer purchase. In the digital environment, the customer cannot ‘return’ a digital download product. Therefore, there are no returns. The customer can ask for a refund of a digital product, and if there are any, then they are reconciled or netted out by our distribution partners before we receive the corresponding payments and royalty statements. As such, we do not allow for returns, bad debts or price protection of digital download products.

However, we derive a small portion of our revenues from sales of physical packaged software for personal computers through distribution partners who sell through traditional retail channels. Product revenue is recognized net of allowances for price protection and returns and various customer discounts. Our distribution partners who sell to retailers may allow returns for our packaged personal computer products; these partners may decide to provide price protection or allow returns for personal computer products after they analyze: (1) inventory remaining in the retail channel, (2) the rate of inventory sell-through in the retail channel, and (3) the remaining inventory on hand of our games. To allow for these returns, price protection and various customer discounts, some of our distribution partners who sell to retailers will hold back a percentage of our revenue. These “hold-back” amounts, typically a percentage of revenue, are then reconciled on a quarterly basis and detailed on the statements we receive from our distribution partners. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012; the allowance for doubtful accounts was $5,600 and $9,934, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. All assets are currently depreciated over 3 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Renewals and improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are reflected in the statement of operations.

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Major Customers and Major Vendors

The Company’s customers are the end-consumers that purchase its games from the websites where the Company has its games listed for sale. Therefore, the Company does not have any individual customers that represent any more than a fraction of its revenue. However, the Company does have primary distribution partners, which are the owners of the websites where it sells its games. Under the Company’s distribution agreements it is not obligated to make, distribute or sell any games. However, for any games the Company does make and wishes to distribute it can list them on one or more of these websites under a revenue sharing arrangement where it shares the revenue from any of its games that sell. The sharing arrangement varies greatly depending on the distributor with the Company generally keeping between 35% and 70% of the revenue and the distributor keeping the remainder of the revenue generated by each sale. At times the Company enters into “exclusivity options” whereby if a distributor wishes to have an exclusive period carrying the Company’s games (normally 30-90 days) it will agree to that in exchange for the distributor marketing the game in their newsletter and other marketing programs. Due to the fact the Company has a number of distribution partners and a variety of different websites where it can sell its games, the Company is not substantially dependent on any of its distribution partners or agreements. In addition to the distribution agreements, the Company currently has licensing agreements with Ohio Art Company and CMG Worldwide, which allow it to develop and distribute games around third party intellectual property in exchange for paying royalty payments. The Company is not substantially dependent on either of those licensing agreements.

During the period ended March 31, 2013, the Company’s primary distributors that represented 10% or more of its revenues were: Big Fish Games – 24.91%, Wild Tangent – 20.77%, and Real Networks – 11.72%. During the period ended March 31, 2012, the Company’s primary distributors that represented 10% or more of its revenues were: Exent – 19.32%, Big Fish Games – 14.85% and Avanquest – 10.39% each respectively.

At March 31, 2013, the Company’s primary distributors and partners that represented 10% or more of its accounts receivable were: Exent – 26.79%, Wild Tangent – 22.00% and Big Fish Games – 15.89%. At March 31, 2012, the Company’s primary distributors and partners that represented 10% or more of its accounts receivable were: Exent - 31.97%, RealNetworks – 14.03%, Oberon – 13.09%, Big Fish Games – 11.53%, and Apple – 10.26%.

Income Taxes

The company accounts for income taxes using ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC Topic 740, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 operating loss 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.

ASC Topic 740 includes accounting guidance which clarifies the accounting for the uncertainty in recognizing income taxes in an organization by providing detailed guidance for financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure involving uncertain tax positions. This guidance requires an uncertain tax position to meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized both upon the adoption of the related guidance and in subsequent periods.

The Company has no uncertain tax positions at any of the dates presented.

Foreign Currency Translation

We derive a portion of our revenue from foreign countries, which report to us in foreign currency, but pay in U.S. Dollars. Because of the fluctuations between the reporting time and the payment period (up to 60 days), it is necessary to make adjustments to our accounting records. These adjustments are recorded under a Foreign Currency Translation expense account, and shown in the Statement of Operations as a General & Administrative expense.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation and ASC Subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees ("ASC stock-based compensation guidance"). Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the requisite services period is based on the value of share-based payment awards after reduction for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and are revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s statements of operations for the periods ended March 31, 2013, and 2012, were $0 and $0, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment ("ASC 360-10"). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment annually or more often if events and circumstances warrant. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of long-lived assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820- 10”) and Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Inputs used in the valuation to derive fair value are classified based on a fair value hierarchy which distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

· Level one - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

· Level two - Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

· Level three - Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

Determining the category in which an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and these differences may be material.

Research and Development Costs

The Company charges costs related to research & development of products to general and administrative expense as incurred. The types of costs included in research and development expenses include research materials, salaries, contractor fees, and support materials.

Software Development Costs

Software development costs include direct costs incurred for internally developed products and payments made to independent software developers and/or contract engineers and artists. The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with the FASB guidance for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed (“ASC Subtopic 985-20”). Software development costs are capitalized once the technological feasibility of a product is established and such costs are determined to be recoverable. Technological feasibility of a product encompasses both technical design documentation and game design documentation, or the completed and tested product design and working model. Software development costs are capitalized once technological feasibility of a product is established and such costs are determined to be recoverable against future revenues. For products where proven game engine technology exists (as is the case for most of the Company’s products), this may occur early in the development cycle. Significant management judgments and estimates are utilized in the assessment of when technological feasibility is established. For most of the PC/Mac and iOS/Android products, technological feasibility is established when a detailed game design document containing sufficient technical specifications written for a proven game engine or framework technology has been created and approved by management. However, technological feasibility is evaluated on a product-by-product basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to the appropriate expense account. Amounts that are considered ‘research and development’ that are not capitalized are immediately charged to general and administrative expense.

Prior to a product’s release, the Company expense, as part of “Cost of Sales—Product Development”, capitalized costs when the Company believes such amounts are not recoverable. Capitalized costs for those products that are cancelled or abandoned are charged to product development expense in the period of cancellation. Commencing upon product release, capitalized software development costs are amortized to “Cost of Sales—Product Development” based on the straight-line method over either a twenty-four month period for traditional pay-to-play apps, or a thirty-six month period for free-to-play apps.

The Company evaluates the future recoverability of capitalized software development costs and intellectual property licenses on an annual basis. For products that have been released in prior years, the primary evaluation criterion is actual title performance. For products that are scheduled to be released in future years, recoverability is evaluated based on the expected performance of the specific products to which the costs relate or in which the licensed trademark or copyright is to be used. Criteria used to evaluate expected product performance include: historical performance of comparable products developed with comparable technology; orders for the product prior to its release; and, for any sequel product, estimated performance based on the performance of the product on which the sequel is based.

Based on current trends in the Company’s business, management has determined the expected shelf life of the majority of a game’s revenue will be realized over a three year period for free-to-play apps. Therefore, the Company has determined the appropriate amortization period for expensing capitalized production costs to be three years or thirty-six months from date of the initial release, or first sale of the product for a specific technology platform. It is possible that the same game developed on different technology platforms (such as PC and Mac, or iOS and Android) will be launched on different release dates because product development cycles may differ and distribution partner release policies may differ.

At March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, current and long-term capitalized software development costs on the balance sheet were $843,383 and $831,980, respectively.

Intellectual Property Licenses (Prepaid Royalties)

Intellectual property license costs represent license fees paid to intellectual property rights holders for use of their trademarks or copyrights in the development of the Company’s products. Intellectual property license costs represent license fees paid to intellectual property rights holders for use of their trademarks, copyrights, software, technology, music or other intellectual property or proprietary rights in the development of our products. Depending upon the agreement with the rights holder, we may obtain the rights to use acquired intellectual property in multiple products over multiple years, or alternatively, for a single product. Minimum guaranteed royalty payments for intellectual property licenses are initially recorded as an asset (prepaid royalties or prepaid licensing fees), and a current liability, (accrued royalties payable) at the contractual amount upon execution of the contract when no significant performance remains with the licensor. Commencing upon the related product’s release date, intellectual property licenses costs are amortized to “Cost of Sales – Licensing” based upon the percentage of revenue outlined in the contract with each specific licensor. Generally, the Company’s intellectual property licensing contracts call for licensors to be paid a percentage of revenue actually received by the Company, with allowances for minimum guarantees. Sometimes, the terms of the specific licensing contracts allow for the Company to re-capture expenses before licensing out royalties are calculated.

Capitalized intellectual property costs for those products that are cancelled or abandoned are charged to product development expense in the period of cancellation.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, prepaid royalties (or prepaid licensing fees) were $6,840, and $7,252, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-04. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, “Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update)” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-03. This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02. This update amends ASU 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment and permits an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other - General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (ASU 2011-11) to enhance disclosure requirements relating to the offsetting of assets and liabilities on an entity's balance sheet. The update requires enhanced disclosures regarding assets and liabilities that are presented net or gross in the statement of financial position when the right of offset exists, or that are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement. The new disclosure requirements relating to this update are retrospective and effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The update only requires additional disclosures, as such, we do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other” (ASU 2011-08). ASU 2011-08 allows a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test would be performed. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and early adoption is permitted.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. This update is effective on a prospective basis for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, which for the Company is January 1, 2012.
