Explanatory Note

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A (Amendment No. 1) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Liberated Syndication Corp. (the “Company”) on May 15, 2018 (the “Original 10-Q”) to restate our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018 and to amend related disclosures.

Background of the Restatement

On April 28, 2020, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Liberated Syndication Inc, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) determined that (a) the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, (b) the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018, (c) the Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the year ended December 31, 2018, and (d) the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year December 31, 2018, all as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Period Ended December 31, 2018, as previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 2019, should not be relied upon. Subsequent to such determination, the Company reviewed the related interim financial statements and interim financial statements for the first three quarters of 2019 and 2018, and as a result of such review, on May 20, 2020, the Audit Committee determined that such interim financial statement should likewise no longer be relied upon.

Specifically, the amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2018 for total assets, current liabilities, and consequently total liabilities and total stockholders’ equity, were determined to be materially different. Additionally, the income tax benefit in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was changed. As a result, the net income and the basic and diluted income per common share were determined to be materially different. The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 also changed as a result of the deferred income taxes and income tax payable for 2018.

During the 2019 audit process, it was discovered through an ongoing IRS examination that the Company owed Federal tax for 2018.

The IRS examination uncovered an error in calculating the Net Operating Loss Carryforward (NOL) resulting from the spin-off of Libsyn in 2016. At December 31, 2017, the Company had recorded an NOL of approximately $14 million. The NOL was part of deferred tax asset which was valued at $0 on the balance sheet, as it had a full valuation allowance. Consequently, the Company was not recognizing tax expenses or the associated tax payable during 2018. However, as the IRS examination continued, it has become clear that the $14 million NOL was overestimated by approximately $12.5 million, and by March 31, 2018, that the NOL has been completely utilized. The result is that the Company ought to have begun recording income tax (benefit) expense in 2018.

This Federal Tax Balance will be paid with an amended return in 2020.

The Company has temporary tax differences which result in a deferred tax asset (DTA). Under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, a DTA is to be recognized for the potential future tax benefit from a loss carryforward. Full realization of the benefit, however, depends on the Company having income in future years.

Because the NOL has been completely utilized and the Company is now consistently recording profits, a DTA with the associated payable should have been recorded in 2018. DTAs represent future income tax benefits. But the tax benefits will be realized only if there is sufficient taxable income from which the deductible amount can be deducted.

Impact of the Restatement

As a result of the restatement, reported net income from continuing operations was increased by $1,271,059, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Total assets increased by $1,336,905 at March 31, 2018. Current and total liabilities increased by $65,846 at March 31, 2018. Accumulated deficit decreased by $1,271,059 at March 31, 2018.

Items Amended in this Filing

For the convenience of the reader, this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the Original Filing, in its entirety, as amended to reflect the restatement. No attempt has been made in this Form 10-Q/A to update other disclosures presented in the Original Filing, except as required to reflect the effects of the restatement.

LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization – Liberated Syndication Inc., (“Company”, “parent”), a Nevada Corporation, was organized on September 30, 2015. Webmayhem, Inc. (“Libsyn”), a Pennsylvania corporation, currently a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was originally organized on January 1, 2001. Libsyn provides podcast hosting services for producers of content. Libsyn also offers ad insertion on certain of the producers’ content. On December 27, 2017, the Company purchased all the issued and outstanding shares of Pair Networks Inc., (“Pair”), a Pennsylvania corporation, and subsidiaries Ryousha Kokusai, LLC (”Ryousha”) and 660837 N.B., Inc. (“NB”), in a transaction accounted for as a purchase. Pair provides web hosting services and domain name registrations.

Basis of Presentation – Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Our interim financial statements are unaudited, and in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2018.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the 2017 Form 10-K).

Prior Period Reclassifications - Reclassifications of certain immaterial prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

Part of cost of revenue has been reclassified to technology and depreciation and amortization. Part of general and administrative has been reclassified to non-cash compensation and customer support.

Consolidation - The financial statements presented reflect the accounts of the parent, Libsyn, Ryousha, NB and Pair. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management made assumptions and estimates for determining reserve for accounts receivable, depreciation of fixed assets and in determining the impairment of definite life intangible assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimated by management.

Our more significant estimates include:

●

the determination of the best estimate of selling price of the deliverables included in multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements;

●

the fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in business acquisitions;

●

the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets;

●

the estimated reserve for refunds;

●

the estimated useful lives of intangible and depreciable assets;

●

the grant date fair value of equity-based awards;

●

the recognition, measurement, and valuation of current and deferred income taxes;

We periodically evaluate these estimates and adjust prospectively, if necessary. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from our estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018, the Company had $6,045,217 cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $14,000 and $14,000, respectively, which reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company adjusted the allowance for bad debt by $0.

Depreciation – Depreciation of property and equipment is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

Long-lived intangible assets – The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.

Technology - Software development costs associated with software to be sold, leased, or for internal use are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility, defined as a working model or prototype, has been established. At that time, such costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release. To date, costs incurred between the completion of a working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has expensed all such costs to research and development during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Research and development costs totaling $373,326 and 143,042 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were included in cost of revenue.

Goodwill – Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Triggering events that may indicate impairment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in customer demand or business climate that could affect the value of goodwill or a significant decrease in expected cash flows. Management noted no triggering events during the period ended March 31, 2018.

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $40,434 and $8,867 for the three months ending March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820. The authoritative guidance, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

●

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

●

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

●

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable, deferred revenue and accrued expenses approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.

Revenue Recognition - On January 1, 2018, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) new revenue recognition standard using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under the new standard, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting.

The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact to our financial statements.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to our customers, in an amount reflecting the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

Certain products are generally sold with a right of return within our policy, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. Refunds are estimated at contract inception using the expected value method based on historical refund experience and updated each reporting period as additional information becomes available and only to the extent it is probable a significant reversal of any incremental revenue will not occur. Refunds reduce deferred revenue at the time they are granted and resulted in a reduced amount of revenue recognized over the contract term of the applicable service compared to the amount originally expected.

Our revenue is categorized and disaggregated as follows:

Domains - Domains revenue primarily consists of domain registrations and renewals, domain privacy, domain application fees, domain back-orders, aftermarket domain sales and fee surcharges paid to ICANN. Domain registrations provide a customer with the exclusive use of a domain during the applicable contract term. After the contract term expires, unless renewed, the customer can no longer access the domain. Consideration is recorded as deferred revenue when received, which is typically at the time of sale, and revenue, other than for aftermarket domain sales, is recognized over the period in which the performance obligations are satisfied, which is generally over the contract term. Aftermarket domain revenue is recognized when ownership of the domain is transferred to the buyer.

Hosting Services - Hosting services revenue primarily consists of website hosting products, website building products and services, website security products, an online shopping cart and online visibility products and email accounts. Consideration is recorded as deferred revenue when received, which is typically at the time of sale, and revenue is recognized over the period in which the performance obligations are satisfied, which is generally over the contract term.

Podcast Hosting - Podcast hosting publishing services are billed on a month to month basis, with first month’s bill prorated to the end of the month so all performance obligations are satisfied at each month-end. Consideration is recorded as revenue as the services, the underlying performance obligation, are provided and or satisfied and collection is probable which is generally when received.

Media Subscription Services - The Company facilitates the sale of producers’ premium content through the sale of subscriptions. The amount earned per transaction is fixed with the producers determine the price for the sale of each subscription, and the Company earns a percentage of what the customer pays. The performance obligation is providing the subscription hosting medium and billing services. Accordingly, the Company reports premium subscription revenue on a net basis over the subscription service period in which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Advertising – The Company recognizes revenue from the insertion of advertisements in digital media. The performance obligation is the download of the digital media with the advertisement inserted. The performance obligation to recognized advertising revenue is satisfied upon delivery of the media download and collection is probable.

Equity-Based Compensation - Our equity-based awards are comprised of options and stock and are accounted for using the fair value method. We grant options at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock as reported on the OTCQB on the date of grant. We measure and recognize compensation expense for equity-based awards made to employees and directors based on the grant date fair values of the awards. Stock is measured based on the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. For options with service or performance-based vesting conditions, the grant date fair value is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires management to make assumptions and apply judgment in determining the grant date fair value. Options and award vest and compensation is recognized over the requisite service period. The measurement date for performance vesting awards is the date on which the applicable performance criteria are approved by our board of directors. Key assumptions used in the determination of fair value for stock options are as follows:

LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

Expected term. The expected term represents the period the options are expected to be outstanding. Because of the lack of sufficient historical data necessary to calculate the expected term, we use the simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term to estimate the expected term.

Expected volatility. We determine the expected stock price volatility based on the historical volatilities of our common stock.

Expected dividend yield. We do not use a dividend rate due to our expectation of not paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

Risk-free interest rate. We base the risk-free interest rate on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a maturity equal to the expected term of the option on the grant date.

Leases – The Company accounts for leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 840. Leases that meet one or more of the capital lease criteria of standard are recorded as a capital lease, all other leases are operating leases.

Earnings Per Share – The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260 Earnings Per Share, which requires the Company to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share when the effect is dilutive (see Note 9).

Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. This topic requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes (See Note 7).

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - In February 2016, the FASB issued changes to the accounting for leases that primarily affect presentation and disclosure requirements. The new standard will require the recognition of a right to use asset and underlying lease liability for operating leases with an initial life in excess of one year. This standard is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2019. We have not yet determined the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

NOTE 3 - GOODWILL AND OTHER DEFINITE-LIFE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Impairment - During the fourth quarter of 2017, management performed its annual test of impairment of goodwill by comparing the net carrying value of the intangible asset with the fair value of the reporting units. Based upon the results of this analysis, it was determined that the goodwill was not impaired.

Goodwill - The following is a summary of goodwill:

	March 31,	December 31,
	2018	2017
Goodwill at beginning of period	$16,352,069	$11,484,251
Acquisition of Pair	36,102	4,867,818
Impairment	-	-
Goodwill at end of period	$16,388,171	$16,352,069

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed its net-working capital closing adjustment for the acquisition of Pair, resulting in an additional allocation of $36,102 of goodwill.

Other definite-life intangible assets - Other intangible assets consist of customer relationships, intellectual property, trade name and non-compete, which were generated through the acquisition of Pair. Management considers these intangible assets to have finite-lives except trade name. These assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

As of March 31, 2018, identifiable intangible assets consist of following:

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes which requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the total of all deferred tax assets was $1,336,905 and $3,458,667, respectively, and the total of the deferred tax assets related to goodwill was $0 and $2,214,117, respectively. The 2017 deferred tax asset was fully allowed for in the year. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company’s future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined. Management has analyzed the health of the Company and it is now more likely than not that the company will likely have strong income from operations moving forward. Therefore, the valuation allowance has been relieved. The change in the valuation allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $1,336,905 and $127,777, respectively.

The components of income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 consist of the following:

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded revenues of $5,059,305, a 103% increase over revenues of $2,494,111 for the same period in 2017. The increase for 2018 reflects an increase in Libsyn4 hosting revenue as well as LibsynPro, offset by decreases in Premium Subscription and Advertising revenue. Pair contributed $2,177,115 of revenue during the first quarter of 2018. Libsyn4 hosting revenue increased due to the 30% growth in the number of podcasts on the network when comparing the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017. LibsynPro revenue increased as a result of additional LibsynPro networks using our platform in 2018 with increased bandwidth usage fees for delivery of podcasts contributing to the majority of the revenue gain. Advertising revenue decreased 37% in the first quarter of 2018 versus 2017. The decrease resulted from decrease in the dollars being spent on ad campaigns during the first quarter of 2018 with existing advertisers. Premium subscription revenue increased $23,409.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, cost of revenue totaled $707,370, a 15% increase as compared to $617,054 for the same period in 2017. This is a reflection of the increase the ad sharing that is being paid to producers in 2018 versus 2017. Pair contributed $170,800 to cost of revenue during the first quarter of 2018.

The Company recorded total operating expenses of $4,438,140 during the three months ended March 31, 2018, a 37% increase as compared to operating expenses of $3,252,205 in the same period of 2017. During the first quarter of 2018, cost of revenue totaled $707,370, a 15% increase as compared to $617,054 for the same period in 2017. The increase is due to the acquisition of Pair in December 2017. This increase is offset by the decrease in ad sharing from Libsyn during the first three months of 2018 when compared to the same period in 2017. Libsyn contributed $534,569 while Pair contributed $172,801 to the cost of revenue during the first quarter of 2018. The increase in general and administrative was primarily driven by the addition of the Pair business, offset by a decrease in non-cash compensation. General and administrative expenses totaled $1,387,312 in 2018 versus $468,247 in 2017, an increase of 196%. Technology expenses represented $373,326 in 2018 versus $143,042 in 2017, driven by an increase in wages from the addition of Pair during 2018. Selling expenses in 2018 were $217,002 versus $76,038 in 2017 with the addition of the selling team for Pair. Customer support expenses in 2018 were $668,230 versus $191,820 in 2017 driven by the 24/7 support provided by Pair.

Interest expense for the first quarter of 2018 was $100,596, which represents interest on the loan facility obtained in connection with the acquisition of Pair.

Income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $1,271,059, which represents the deferred tax asset from the 2018 tax provision and the expected federal balance due for 2018. The income tax payable will be payable with the amended return in 2020.

The Company’s net income was $1,803,974 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This represents a $2,562,368 increase from our net loss of $758,394 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

Cash on hand was $6,587,745 at March 31, 2018, an increase of $1,375,900 over the $5,211,845 on hand at December 31, 2017. Cash provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was $1,792,870, an increase of $1,345,395 over the $447,475 cash provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The contribution from Pair of this cash generation totaled $608,140, and Libsyn added $737,255. This increase is driven from our operating results of both segments of our business.

Cash used in financing activities was $416,970 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and $0 in 2017. During the first quarter, we made our payment on the loan used to acquire Pair, $400,000 as well as $16,970 of payments on our capital lease.

The increase in cash of $1,375,900 during the first quarter of 2018 is a reflection of the strength of the overall business during the quarter.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have operating leases for certain facilities, but otherwise do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.

The future minimum lease payments for non-cancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of March 31, 2018 are as follows:

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")), which we refer to as disclosure controls, are controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any control system. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are met. No evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

As of March 31, 2018, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, the design and operation of these disclosure controls were not effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level due to the identification of errors which led to certain of our financial statements being restated. On an on-going basis we will evaluate the adequacy of our controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
