LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization – Liberated Syndication Inc. 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. Libsyn offers hosting and distribution tools, including storage, bandwidth, syndication creation, distribution, and statistics tracking. Libsyn offers an enterprise solution for professional media producers and corporate customers and a premium subscription service that provides producers a custom app and a podcast website where listeners can access their show, login to purchase a subscription, and get access to premium 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 660837NB, Inc. (“NB”), in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.

Pair provides web hosting services and domain name registrations. Services include shared web hosting, e-commerce, fully managed virtual private and dedicated servers, customer self-managed dedicated servers, domain-name registration, co-location and content-delivery networks. Pair began operations in August 1995. It incorporated in the state of Pennsylvania in August 1998. Pair’s principal operations are conducted on-site in Pittsburgh, PA. Pair also has an operating site in Denver, CO, and a remote site back-up location in Pittsburgh, PA.

Ryousha (dba Pair International), a wholly owned single-member limited liability company subsidiary of Pair, was formed on January 1, 2015. Value added taxes (“VAT”) related to sales occurring in European Union countries, which are subject to VAT, are paid through Ryousha. There are no operating activities conducted by Ryousha. NB, a Canadian company, was organized on December 2, 2011. NB is used solely for holding the Canadian tradenames and domain names of Pair. There are no operating activities conducted by NB.

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, 2020.

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, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”).

Accounting Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 accounts receivable reserves, depreciation of fixed assets, deferred taxes 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 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; and

●

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

LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

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 June 30, 2020, the Company had $19,018,386 cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

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

Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had 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 six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not adjust the allowance for bad debt.

Definite-life intangible assets – The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes 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 Costs - 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 technology expense during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Technology costs totaled $1,158,852 and $911,789 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Technology costs totaled $577,782 and $457,151 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Goodwill – Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually on December 31, 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 quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $101,398 and $42,508 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Advertising costs totaled $62,133 and $21,065 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“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.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

The fair value of the equity-based awards during the second quarter of 2020 were determined based on market prices on the grant date.

The fair value of the Company’s equity-based awards recorded in the Company’s financial statements during the first quarter of 2019 was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation methodology based upon a Geometric Brownian Motion stock path, a Level 3 measurement. Volatility was based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over commensurate periods. The expected life was based on the contractual term of the award, and the risk-free interest rate was based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury Securities with a maturity similar to the awards’ expected life.

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

Revenue Recognition - The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606. 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.

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 result 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 the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“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 the 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 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 determining 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 recognize advertising revenue is satisfied upon delivery of the media download and collection is probable.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

Equity-Based Compensation - Our equity-based awards are comprised of stock and are accounted for using the fair value method. Stock is measured based on the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Awards 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.

Leases – The Company accounts for leases in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 842. Leases that meet one or more of the finance lease criteria are recorded as a finance lease, all other leases are operating leases.

Earnings Per Share – The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, 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 - 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 4 - LOANS

On December 27, 2017, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) among the Company, Libsyn, and Pair, together, and First Commonwealth Bank, a Pennsylvania bank and trust company (the “Bank”).

The Loan Agreement provides for: (i) a revolving credit facility pursuant to which the Company may borrow an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2,000,000 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”); and (ii) a term loan in a principal amount equal to $8,000,000 (the “Term Loan” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Facility”). A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, up to $500,000, may be used for standby letters of credit for the account of the Company. As of June 30, 2020, $2,000,000 was drawn down on the revolving line and there was no additional availability under the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Term Loan currently accrues interest at LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 125 basis points or prime plus 75 basis points at the election of the Company. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had elected LIBOR plus 125 basis points or 1.43363%.

The Term Loan is repayable in quarterly installments of $400,000 commencing on March 30, 2018 and on the last day of each June, September, December and March thereafter, through and including September 30, 2022. Accrued interest is payable in arrears not less frequently than quarterly. The remaining unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, is due and payable in full on December 27, 2022. The Term Loan also calls for additional payment equal to the following: (1)100% of the proceeds from the sale of any shares of common stock, (2) 100% of the proceeds from the sale of assets not immediately replaced, and (3) excess liquidity in any given year up to $1,066,667 a year and no more than $3,200,000 over the life of the term loan. Excess liquidity is obtained when the audited financial statements reflect a cash balance greater than $4,600,000. Based upon the 2019 audited financial statements, the Company demonstrated excess liquidity per the Loan Agreement. As such, the Company has included the expected $1,066,667 payment to the Bank as a current liability as of June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the balance on the Term Loan was $4,000,000.

The Company, Libsyn and Pair have granted the Bank a blanket security interest in their respective assets, and the Company has pledged the stock of Libsyn and Pair to the Bank, as security for all obligations under the Loan Agreement.

Borrowings under the Facility are at variable rates which are, at the Company’s option, tied to LIBOR plus an applicable rate or a prime rate. Interest rates are subject to change based on the Company’s combined cash balances. The Facility contains covenants that may have the effect of limiting the ability of the Company to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, enter into a transaction resulting in a change in control, create certain new liens, incur certain additional indebtedness, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, engage in new lines of business or sell a substantial part of its assets. The Facility also requires the Company to maintain certain consolidated fixed charge coverage ratios and minimum liquidity balances.

The Facility also contains customary events of default, including (but not limited to) default in the payment of principal or, following an applicable grace period, interest, breaches of the Company’s covenants or warranties under the Facility, payment default or acceleration of certain indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation involving the Company or its subsidiaries, certain judgments or uninsured losses, changes in control and certain liabilities related to ERISA based plans.

On December 27, 2017, the Company drew $10,000,000 under the Facility to finance a portion of the cash consideration for the purchase of Pair. Debt issuance costs of $113,000 for the Facility were recorded as a discount and will be amortized over the life of the Facility. As of June 30, 2020, the discount was $39,530.

Future maturities of the loans at June 30, 2020 are as follows:

Twelve months ending June 30,
2021	$2,666,667
2022	1,200,000
2023	133,333
Total	$4,000,000

NOTE 5 - CAPITAL STOCK

Common Stock - The Company has authorized 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. As of June 30, 2020, 29,309,474 shares were issued and outstanding.

In prior periods, the Company issued stock-based awards to employees that contained a vesting performance condition related to the occurrence of an uplisting of the Company’s common stock to the Nasdaq stock exchange. Such awards were initially expensed in the period issued as the Company deemed it probable the performance condition would be met. During the first quarter of 2019, approximately $830,500 of previously recognized expense related to these awards was recaptured in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) as a credit to general and administrative expense as it became less than probable that such performance conditions would occur within the time specified in the stock award agreements. Per the October 4, 2019 settlement agreement with Camac Fund, LP, and its affiliates Camac Partners,

LLC, Camac Capital, LLC, and Eric Shahinian, (collectively, “Camac”), 300,000 of these shares were to be returned to the Company. As of June 30, 2020, this had not been completed.

On March 15, 2019 (“Modification Date”), the Company modified certain stock awards previously issued which contained a market condition. The prior agreement required the Company’s adjusted market capitalization to exceed $75 million on five consecutive days by April 23, 2019, whereas the modified award increases the adjusted market capitalization threshold to $80 million on five consecutive days within 18 months of the Modification Date. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recorded the incremental fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award, as compensation expense totaling $677,088.

On April 13, 2019, 450,000 shares of common stock were forfeited as certain milestones were not achieved.

On December 27, 2019, the Company modified certain stock awards previously issued which contained a market condition. The prior agreement required the Company to obtain an average closing price of $5.00 per share (adjusted for stock splits) for any 10 consecutive trading days, in which case certain employees would retain 25% of the stock. The modification requires the Company to obtain an average closing price of $5.50 per share (adjusted for stock splits for any 10 consecutive trading days, in which case the award recipients will retain 100% of their stock. In accordance with ASC 718, the Company recorded the incremental fair value of the newly modified award over the fair value of the original award, as compensation expense totaling $385,582.

On February 18, 2020, of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved (i) the extension and modification of stock agreements entered into with Laurie Sims (350,000 restricted shares of common stock), Rob Walch (100,000 restricted shares of common stock), Todd Kammerer (25,000 restricted shares of common stock) and Greg Buretz (25,000 restricted shares of common stock) so that the original vesting conditions regarding the third and fourth tranches of such awards were extended to December 28, 2020, and all unvested restricted shares shall be forfeited upon certain events of termination and vest immediately in the event of certain changes in control of the Company, (ii) the amendment of stock agreements entered into with Douglas Polinsky and Dennis Yevstifeyev each with respect to 200,000 shares of common stock, such that all such shares shall vest immediately in the event of certain changes in control of the Company, and (iii) the award of 25,000 restricted shares of common stock to each of Eric Shahinian, Bradley Tirpak and Brian Kibby as members of the Board of Directors, which shares shall vest in four equal quarterly tranches at the end of each quarter of 2020 and all such shares shall vest immediately in the event of certain changes in control of the Company.

On February 28, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the termination of John Busshaus, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer. The Company anticipates that the 1,212,500 shares of unvested shares held by Mr. Busshaus will be forfeited and cancelled. See Note 10 for additional information.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

Our provision for income taxes for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was a tax expense of approximately $1,931,729 and $510,942, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 58% and 22%, respectively.

Our provision for income taxes for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was a tax expense of approximately $1,627,193 and $183,932, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 86% and 22%, respectively.

We account for uncertain tax positions pursuant to the recognition and measurement criteria under ASC 740. It is reasonably possible that $1.2 million of uncertain tax positions will be recognized within the next 12 months due to our inability to respond to IRS requests related to an ongoing IRS examination.

NOTE 8 – LEASES

We lease two office spaces, a Denver data center, and three Xerox machines. These leases are all classified as operating leases. There is one finance lease for Emerson batteries which is immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements, which was paid off during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Operating lease assets and obligations are reflected within Operating lease right-of-use assets, Current portion of operating lease liabilities, and Operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Lease expense for these leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, with variable lease payments recognized in the period those payments are incurred.

We have options to renew lease terms for the office spaces and other assets. We evaluate renewal and termination options at the lease commencement date to determine if we are reasonably certain to exercise the option on the basis of economic factors. The weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases as of June 30, 2020 was 1.42 years.

The discount rate implicit within our leases is generally not determinable and therefore the Company determines the discount rate based on its incremental borrowing rate for purposes of classifying the lease and measuring the right-of-use asset and lease liability. The incremental borrowing rate for our leases is determined based on lease term in a similar economic environment, adjusted for impacts of collateral. The weighted average discount rate used to measure our operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2020 was 4.42%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, cash paid for amounts in the measurement of lease liabilities was $232,687. Total operating lease costs during the same period were $232,833.

Maturity of lease liabilities:

Twelve months ending June,	Operating Leases

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Although the Company does not expect to be liable for any obligations not expressly assumed by the Company from the distribution by FAB Universal Corp. (“FAB”) to its stockholders of the Company’s common stock (the “Spin-Off”), it is possible that the Company could be required to assume responsibility for certain obligations retained by FAB, the former parent company of the Company, should FAB fail to pay or perform its retained obligations. FAB may have obligations that at the present time are unknown or unforeseen. As the nature of such obligations are unknown, we are unable to provide an estimate of the potential obligation. However, should FAB incur such obligations, the Company may be financially obligated to pay any losses incurred.

On October 2, 2019, the Company formally accepted the resignation of John Busshaus, the former Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The Company received a letter from Mr. Busshaus, providing notice of his intent to resign for “Good Reason” as defined in Section 8(c) of the Employment Agreement pursuant to which he claimed to be entitled to the “Effect of Termination” under the Employment Agreement in Section 9(c). The Company contends that there was not “Good Reason” for his resignation and therefore he is not entitled to the “Effect of Termination” under Section 9(c) of the Employment Agreement.

On April 24, 2020 Mr. Busshaus filed a complaint against the Company with the American Arbitration Association (AAA) asserting claims arising from his employment relationship with the Company, including, inter alia, claims for wages, compensation and benefits, and claims of unlawful discharge and wrongful termination. Mr. Busshaus claims that he resigned for “Good Reason” as defined in Section 8(c) of his Employment Agreement pursuant to which he claims to be entitled to the “Effect of Termination” under Section 9(c) of the Employment Agreement. The Company denies Mr. Busshaus’ claims in their entirety and intends to vigorously defend its position.

As of June 30, 2020, there has been no further update to the complaint filed against the Company.

The Company has entered into employment agreements with its executive officers and management that provide for bonus payments to be paid at the end of such agreements, and bonus payments to be paid upon an executive’s termination without cause or for good reason, or following a change of control by the Company. As of June 30, 2020, the bonus accrual totaled $542,234.

Dedicated servers provide yet another level of security and performance for those who need more processing power or storage. Servers are built to customer specifications and tuned for performance, reliability and efficiency to meet the demand of more robust applications. Through Pair QuickServe (QS), a powerful hosting solution with tremendous capacity and speed, servers are ready for a customer’s use quickly and fully managed to keep them up to date.

Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenues of $12,602,493, a 5% increase from revenues of $11,983,614 for the same period in 2019. The increase for 2020 reflects an increase in Libsyn4 hosting revenue and Premium Subscriptions, offset by a decrease in Advertising and LibsynPro revenue. Libsyn contributed $7,749,842 and $6,924,991 of revenue during the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Pair contributed $4,852,651 and $5,058,623 of revenue during the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Libsyn4 hosting revenue increased $913,912, or 17% during the six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 due to the growth in the number of podcasts on the network. Libsyn decreased by 11% as a result of lower bandwidth transfer revenue. Advertising revenue decreased $121,928 during the first six months of 2020 versus the same period of 2019. The decrease resulted from a decrease in the dollars being spent on ad campaigns during the first six months of 2020 with existing advertisers. Premium subscription revenue increased $157,905 in the first six months of 2020.

The Company recorded total costs and operating expenses of $9,257,519 during the first six months of 2020, a 3% decrease as compared to total costs and operating expenses of $9,551,342 during the same period of 2019. Libsyn contributed $4,428,706 to total costs and operating expenses during the first six months of 2020, and $4,300,704 during the same period in 2019. Pair contributed $4,828,813 to total costs and operating expenses during the first six months of 2020 and $5,250,638 during the same period in 2019.

During the first six months of 2020, cost of revenue totaled $1,429,537, a 16% decrease as compared to $1,700,488 for the same period in 2019. Libsyn contributed $959,800 while Pair contributed $469,737 to the cost of revenue during the first six months of 2020. Libsyn recorded a decrease in bandwidth costs and ad sharing paid to producers offset by an increase in credit card processing fees, and colocation fees during the first six months of 2020 versus 2019. Pair recorded a decrease in domain name fees and internet fees. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Libsyn decreased to 12% during the first six months of 2020 from 17% during the same period in 2019. This is a reflection of the reduction in the bandwidth rate to deliver the podcasts, off-set by an increase in bandwidth usage during the first six months of 2020 due to the growth in the number of podcasts and increased podcast consumption on the Libsyn Platform. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for Pair decreased to 10% during the first six months of 2020 from 11% during the same period in 2019. This is due primarily to the decrease in domain name purchase fees and internet connectivity fees.

General and administrative expenses totaled $3,637,863 during the first six months of 2020 versus $3,734,106 during the same period in 2019, a decrease of 2.6%. The decrease was driven primarily due to insurance reimbursement for the December 2019 Camac settlement payment, decrease in wage expense, and decrease in professional fees. General and administrative expense for Pair during the first six months of 2020 was $1,310,219 and $1,363,424 for the same period in 2019. General and administrative expense for Libsyn for the same periods was $2,327,644 and $2,370,682, respectively.

Technology expenses represented $1,158,852 during the first six months of 2020 versus $911,789 in the same period of 2019, driven by an increase in wage expense during the first six months of 2020. Selling expenses during the first six months of 2020 were $529,822 versus $409,336 during the same period in 2019 driven by an increase in advertising expense. Customer support expenses in the first six months of 2020 were $1,477,115 versus $1,308,433 during the same period in 2019 driven by an increase in support staff costs.

Depreciation and amortization expenses consist of charges relating to the depreciation of the property and equipment used in our operations and the amortization of intangible assets.

In connection with an ongoing IRS examination, the Company has been asked to provide certain financial records supporting tax returns previously filed by Fab Universal Corp. (“FAB”) prior to the spin-off of the Company. The IRS request is related to a failure by FAB to include certain financial information related to certain of its subsidiaries in its consolidated tax returns. We believe it is unlikely that we will be able to provide the IRS with the requested financial records due to FAB’s record retention policies. As a result, we believe we have an uncertain tax position related to the utilization in our 2016, 2017, and 2018 tax returns of the net operating loss carryforwards associated with the Webmayhem subsidiary operations for 2007-2015. Accordingly, we have recorded an uncertain tax provision reserve of approximately $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

The Company’s net income was $1,395,475 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This represents a $469,195 decrease from $1,864,670 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Our operations and business could be disrupted and materially adversely affected by the recent outbreak of COVID-19. The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries has resulted in the World Health Organization declaring the outbreak of COVID-19 as a “pandemic,” or a worldwide spread of a new disease, on March 11, 2020. Many countries around the world have imposed quarantines and restrictions on travel and mass gatherings to slow the spread of the virus. With respect to global financial markets, the continuing and significant decline in the Dow Industrial Average from the end of February through March 2020 has been largely attributed to the effects of COVID-19. We are still assessing our business operations and system supports and the impact COVID-19 may have on our results and financial condition, including requirements that we arrange for employees to work remotely, but there can be no assurance that this analysis will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business conditions generally or in our sector in particular.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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 Principal 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.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, the design and operation of these disclosure controls were not effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level due to limited accounting and reporting personnel and a lack of segregation of duties due to limited financial resources and the size of our Company. 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 June 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
