1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Organization

 

Cutaia Media Group, LLC (“CMG”) was organized on December 12, 2012, as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Nevada. On May 19, 2014, bBooth, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. On May 19, 2014, CMG merged into bBooth, Inc. and, thereafter, bBooth, Inc. changed its name to bBooth (USA), Inc., effective as of October 16, 2014. 

 

On October 16, 2014, bBoothUSA was acquired by Global System Designs, Inc. (“GSD”), pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement entered into with GSD (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). GSD was incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 27, 2012. The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger transaction. In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, GSD’s management was replaced by bBoothUSA’s management, and GSD changed its name to bBooth, Inc. The operations of CMG and bBooth (USA), Inc. became known as, and are referred to herein as, “bBooth USA.”

 

Effective April 21, 2017, we changed our corporate name from bBooth, Inc. to nFüsz, Inc. The name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of nFüsz, Inc., our wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary, formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity. To effectuate the merger, we filed Articles of Merger and a Certificate of Correction (relative to the effective date of the name change merger) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on April 4, 2017, and April 17, 2017, respectively. The merger became effective on April 21, 2017. Our board of directors approved the merger, which resulted in the name change on that date. In accordance with Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, stockholder approval of the merger was not required.

 

Our Business

 

We are an applications services provider marketing cloud-based business software products on a subscription basis. Our flagship product, notifiCRM, is a Customer Relationship Management (“CRM”) application that is distinguishable from other CRM programs because it utilizes interactive video as the primary means of communication between sales and marketing professionals and their clients or prospects. notifiCRM allows our users to create, distribute, and post interactive videos that contain on-screen interactive icons, buttons, and other elements, that when clicked, allow their prospects and customers to respond to our users’ call to action in real-time, in the video, while the video is playing, without leaving or stopping the video. Our users report increased sales conversion rates compared to traditional, non-interactive video. We developed the proprietary interactive video technology, which serves as the basis for our cloud, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) products and services that we market under the brand name “notifi” and they are accessible on all mobile and desktop devices. No download is required to access and use our applications. Our users also have access to detailed analytics in the application dashboard that reflect when the videos were viewed, by whom, how many times, for how long, and what interactive elements were clicked-on in the video, among other things, all of which assist our users in focusing their sales and marketing efforts by identifying which clients or prospects have interest in the subject matter of the video.

 

Our notifiCRM platform can accommodate any size campaign or sales organization, and it is enterprise-class scalable to meet the needs of today’s global organizations. We are working with our vendors to ensure that it is so scalable based upon our current agreements with them. We offer stand-alone versions of our notifiCRM product on a subscription basis to individual consumers, sales-based organizations, consumer brands, marketing and advertising agencies, as well as to artists and social influencers. We also offer notifiCRM through a network of partners and resellers that include Oracle/NetSuite and Marketo, who offer notifiCRM to their respective clients and customers as an upgrade to their existing Oracle/NetSuite or Marketo subscriptions. notifiCRM is fully integrated into each of their platforms and upon payment of the upgrade fee, is accessible through the respective dashboards of Oracle/NetSuite and Marketo. We are actively developing integrations of notifiCRM into other popular marketing, CRM, and Enterprise Resource Management (ERP) platforms.

 

Our notifiMED application is designed for physicians and other healthcare providers to create more efficient and effective interactive communications with patients. Patients are able to avoid unnecessary and inconvenient visits to their physicians’ or other healthcare providers’ offices by viewing and responding to interactive videos through in-video, on-screen clicks that are designed to assess the patients’ need for an office visit. If the patient’s responses to the interactive video indicate that an office visit is either necessary or desirable, the patient can schedule the office visit right in through video in real time. Patients can also download and print prescriptions, care instructions, and other physician distributed documents right from and through the video. notifiMED is offered on a subscription basis. 

 

8
 

 

Our notifiEDU application is designed for teachers and school administrators for more effective communications with students, parents, and faculty. notifiEDU allows teachers to deliver interactive lessons to students which are both more engaging and more effective. notifiEDU allows teachers to communicate with students through their mobile devices and computers to deliver lessons and tests/quizzes on the screen and in the video. The analytics capabilities of notifiEDU available on the dashboard of the teacher or school administrator allows them to track which students watched the lesson, when, for how long, how many times, and track and report on test/quiz results. notifiEDU is offered on a subscription basis.

 

Our notifiTV and notifiLIVE products are also part of our proprietary interactive video platform that allows viewers to interact with pre-recorded as well as live broadcast video content by clicking on links embedded in on-screen people, objects, graphics, or sponsors’ signage. Viewers can experience our notifiTV and notifiLIVE interactive content and capabilities on most devices available in the market today without the need to download special software or proprietary video players.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods reflected. Except as noted, all adjustments contained herein are of a normal recurring nature. Results of operations for the fiscal periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year-end results.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of nFüsz, Inc., (formerly bBooth, Inc.) and Songstagram, Inc. (“Songstagram”), our wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Going Concern

 

We have incurred operating losses since inception and have negative cash flows from operations. We had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,180,711 as of June 30, 2018 and incurred a net loss of $6,722,532 and utilized $1,889,395 of cash during the six-month period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2017 consolidated financial statements, has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing until we can generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet our obligations. We intend to continue to seek additional debt or equity financing to continue our operations. There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable or that debt or equity financing will be available to us. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of 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 at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities, valuation of debt and equity instruments, share-based compensation arrangements and realization of deferred tax assets. Amounts could materially change in the future.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We generate substantially all of our revenue from subscription services, which are comprised of subscription fees from customer accounts. Subscription service arrangements are generally non-cancelable and do not provide for refunds to customers in the event of cancellations or any other right of return. We record revenue net of sales or excise taxes.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and (ASC 606). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which includes (1) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs for the Company upon shipment or delivery of products or services to our customers based on written sales terms, which is also when control is transferred. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the products or services to a customer.

 

The Company adopted the guidance of ASC 606 on January 1, 2018. The implementation of ASC 606 had no impact on the prior period financial statements and no cumulative effect adjustment was recognized.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

The Company uses Level 2 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined by using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives.

 

Share Based Payments

 

The Company issues stock options, common stock, and equity interests as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for its share-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period.

 

10
 

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50 Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The final fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the performance completion date. For interim periods, the fair value is estimated, and the percentage of completion is applied to that estimate to determine the cumulative expense recorded.

 

The Company values stock compensation based on the market price on the measurement date. As described above, for employees this is the date of grant, and for non-employees, this is the date of performance completion. The Company values stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options. No dilutive potential common shares were included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because their impact was anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a total of 21,284,605 options and 29,407,413 warrants outstanding, and the potential issuance of approximately 11.2 million shares of common stock upon conversion of notes payable. These shares were excluded from the computation of net loss per share because they are anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had total of 23,030,953 options and 20,540,456 warrants and potential issuance of approximately 14.2 million shares of common stock which were excluded from the computation of net loss per share because they are anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months, as well as the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. ASU 2016-02 requires classification of all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are required to provide the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception” (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11 allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down round features may no longer be required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value of a down round feature only when it is triggered, and the strike price has been adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income available to common stockholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be amortized to earnings. ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance in ASU 2017-11 can be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-11 on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

6. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

The Company has the following convertible notes payable as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

Total notes payable, net of debt discount            $-   $1,020,315 

 

During 2016 through 2017, the Company issued convertible notes payable to unrelated, third-party creditors/investors totaling $1,695,768. The notes bore an average interest rate of 8% per annum, secured by the Company’s assets, mature starting February 2018 through January 2019 and are convertible to shares of common stock based upon a discounted market price. As of June 30 2018, outstanding balance of the notes payable and unamortized debt discount was zero.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued similar convertible notes payable totaling $150,000 in exchange for cash of $130,000. The Company determined that since the conversion floor had no limit to the conversion price, that the Company could no longer determine if it had enough authorized shares to fulfil the conversion obligation. As such, pursuant to current accounting guidelines, the Company determined that the conversion feature of the notes created a derivative with a fair value of $252,778 at the date of issuance. The Company accounted for the fair value of the derivative up to the face amount of the note of $150,000 as a valuation discount amortized over the life of the note, and the excess of $102,778 being recorded as financing cost (see Note 7 for discussion of derivative liability). In addition, the Company also recorded the notes’ original issue discount of $20,000 as financing costs.

 

As part of the offering, the Company also granted a five-year warrant to acquire 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $0.14 per share. A total of 500,000 warrants that were granted included a full ratchet reset provision in case of a future offering at a price below $0.14 per share and a fundamental transaction provision that could give rise to an obligation to pay cash to the warrant holder and a reset. As such, pursuant to current accounting guidelines, the Company determined that the warrant exercise price and fundamental transaction clause created a derivative with a fair value of $48,961 at the date of issuance. The Company accounted for the fair value of the derivative as financing cost. See Note 7 for discussion of derivative liability.

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company paid $845,000 to settle certain outstanding convertible notes payable. In addition, the Company also issued 6,133,006 shares of common stock to settle the remaining convertible notes payable and accrued interest. As part of the settlement, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $1,067,242 to account for the fair value of the common shares issued to a note holder who’s note was not fully convertible to common shares. Furthermore, the Company amortized the remaining debt discount of $747,623 to interest expense. As of June 30, 2018, all convertible notes payable and unpaid interest had been paid or settled.

 

Total interest expense for convertible notes payable for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $144,541 and $40,481, respectively.

 

7. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

Under authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, instruments that do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The Company has issued certain convertible notes whose conversion prices contains reset provisions based on a future offering price and/or whose conversion prices are based on future market prices. However, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option. In addition, the Company also granted certain warrants that included a fundamental transaction provision that could give rise to an obligation to pay cash to the warrant holder.

 

As a result, the conversion option and warrants are classified as liabilities and are bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815 and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

The derivative liabilities were valued using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model with the following average assumptions:

 

   June 30, 2018   Upon Issuance   December 31, 2017 
Stock Price  $0.60   $0.10   $0.10 
Exercise Price  $0.13   $0.08   $0.06 
Expected Life   4.50    2.33    1.26 
Volatility   226%   193%   189%
Dividend Yield   0%   0%   0%
Risk-Free Interest Rate   1.89%   1.18%   1.72%
                
Fair Value  $1,014,227   $301,739   $1,250,581 

 

The expected life of the conversion feature of the notes and warrants was based on the remaining contractual term of the notes and warrants. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future. The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had recorded a derivative liability of $1,250,581.

 

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an additional derivative liability totaling $301,739 as a result of the issuance of convertible notes and warrants. The Company also extinguished a derivative liability of $1,718,816 upon the conversion and payment of outstanding convertible notes payable, which was recorded as part of gain on extinguishment of debt. In addition, the Company also recorded a change in fair value of $1,180,723 to account the change in fair value of these derivative liabilities up to the dates of the extinguishment and at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, the fair value of the derivative liability amounted to $1,014,227.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company granted stock options to employees and consultants to purchase a total 1,006,272 shares of common stock for services rendered. The options have an average exercise price of $0.33 per share, expire in five years and vest on grant date or over a period of three years from grant date. Total fair value of these options at grant date was $259,105 using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model.

 

The total stock compensation expense recognized relating to vesting of employee stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2018 amounted to $829,176. As of June 30, 2018, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense was $1,563,155, which is expected to be recognized as part of operating expense through May 2021.

 

The fair value of share option award is estimated using the Black-Scholes method based on the following weighted-average assumptions:

 

    Six Months Ended June 30, 
    2018    2017 
Risk-free interest rate   2.25% - 2.85%   1.76% - 1.93%
Average expected term (years)   5 years    5 years 
Expected volatility   184% -190%   157 %-160%
Expected dividend yield   -    - 

 

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award; the expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; and the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation

 

On April 24, 2018, EMA Financial, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“EMA”), commenced an action against us, styled EMA Financial, LLC, a New York limited liability company, Plaintiff, against nFUSZ, Inc., Defendant, United States District Court, Southern District of New York, case number 1:18-cv-03634-NRB. The Complaint sets forth four causes of action and seeks relief consisting of: (1) money damages, (2) injunctive relief, (3) liquidated damages; and declaratory relief. All of the claims stem from our refusal to honor EMA’s exercise notice in connection with a common stock purchase warrant that we had granted to it. We believe EMA’s allegations are entirely without merit.

 

The circumstances giving rise to the dispute are as follows: On or about December 5, 2017, we issued a warrant to EMA as part of the consideration we were required to provide in connection with a contemporaneous convertible loan EMA made to us. The loan, which was evidenced by a convertible Note, was for a term of one year. Our refusal to honor the warrant exercise notice was due to our good faith belief that EMA’s interpretation of the cashless exercise provision of the warrant was, inter alia, (i) contrary to our direct conversations and agreements made with EMA prior to, and during the preparation of the loan and warrant agreements; (2) wholly inconsistent with industry norms, standards, and practices; (3) was contrary to the cashless exercise method actually adopted by EMA’s co-lender in the same transaction; and (4) was the result of a single letter mistakenly transposed in the cashless exercise formula drafted by EMA which if adopted, would result in a gross and unintended windfall in favor of EMA and adverse to us. Moreover, as set forth in our response to EMA’s allegations, EMA’s interpretation of the cashless exercise provision would have resulted in it being issued more shares of our common stock than it would have received if it exercised the warrant for cash (instead of less), and more than the amount of shares reflected on the face of the warrant agreement itself. The loan underlying the transaction was repaid, in full, approximately three months after it was issued, on March 8, 2018, together with all accrued interest, prior to any conversion or attempted conversion of the Note.

 

On July 20, 2018, we filed an Answer to the Complaint, along with certain Affirmative Defenses, as well as Counterclaims seeking, inter alia, to void the entire transaction for violation of New York’s criminal usury laws and, alternatively, for reformation of the warrant conversion formula set forth in the Warrant Agreement so as to be consistent with the parties’ intent and custom and practice in the industry. We intend to vigorously defend the action, as well as vigorously prosecute our counterclaims against EMA. The action is still pending.

We know of no other material pending legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or to which any of our assets or properties, or the assets or properties of any of our subsidiaries, are subject and, to the best of our knowledge, no adverse legal activity is anticipated or threatened. In addition, we do not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental authorities.

 

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2018, two existing consultants were hired as employees of the Company. In connection with their employment agreements, the Company granted 4,800,000 non-qualified stock options with a fair value of $2,902,453. 1,500,000 of the options vested on the grant date, while the remaining 3,300,000 options vest annually over three years on the employees’ anniversary dates with an average exercise price of $0.40. As a result, the Company will record stock compensation expense of $910,844 for the vested options. In addition, the Company also cancelled 3,100,000 unvested non-qualified stock options previously granted to these individuals when they were consultants of the Company. As a result of these cancellation, the Company reversed previously recorded stock compensation expense of $616,990.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company granted 300,000 non-qualified stock options with a fair value of $166,510 to consultants for services to be rendered. The options vest annually over three years with an exercise price of $0.60.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company granted 1,250,000 non-qualified stock options with a fair value of $611,909 to employees for services to be rendered. The options vest annually over three years with an exercise price of $0.60.

 

Effective August 8, 2018, the Company entered into an extension agreement (the “Extension Agreement”) with Rory J. Cutaia, CEO and Chairman, to extend the maturity date of the $1,248,883 Secured Note due on August 1, 2018 to and including February 8, 2021. In consideration for extending the Note the Company issued Mr. Cutaia 2,446,700 warrants at a price of $0.49. All other terms of the Note remain unchanged.

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of nFüsz for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes and the other financial information that are included elsewhere this Quarterly Report. This discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical fact and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates, forecasts, and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and “nFüsz” refer to nFüsz, Inc., a Nevada corporation unless otherwise specified.

 

Overview

 

Cutaia Media Group, LLC (“CMG”) was organized on December 12, 2012, as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Nevada. On May 19, 2014, bBooth, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. On May 19, 2014, CMG merged into bBooth, Inc. and, thereafter, bBooth, Inc. changed its name to bBooth (USA), Inc., effective as of October 16, 2014.

 

On October 16, 2014, bBoothUSA was acquired by Global System Designs, Inc. (“GSD”), pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement entered into with GSD (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). GSD was incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 27, 2012. The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger transaction. In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, GSD’s management was replaced by bBoothUSA’s management, and GSD changed its name to bBooth, Inc. The operations of CMG and bBooth (USA), Inc. became known as, and are referred to herein as, “bBooth USA.”

 

Effective April 21, 2017, we changed our corporate name from bBooth, Inc. to nFüsz, Inc. The name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of nFüsz, Inc., our wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary, formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity. To effectuate the merger, we filed Articles of Merger and a Certificate of Correction (relative to the effective date of the name change merger) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on April 4, 2017, and April 17, 2017, respectively. The merger became effective on April 21, 2017. Our board of directors approved the merger, which resulted in the name change on that date. In accordance with Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, stockholder approval of the merger was not required.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017

 

Revenues

 

Subscription revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were $8,239, compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in subscription revenues were primarily attributable to the Company’s SaaS platform that was launched during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. There was no similar transaction in the second quarter of 2017.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Research and development expenses were $105,733 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $92,240 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in fees for coders dedicated to software development enhancements and modifications.

 

19
 

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $(490,145) and $1,352,028, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $2,096,024 offset by an increase in marketing and labor related costs associated with growth of the Company. The significant decrease in stock-based compensation is attributed to the revaluation of our consultants’ unvested restricted stock and stock options. The price of the Company’s common stock decreased significantly from $1.45 per share at March 31, 2018 to $0.60 per share at June 30, 2018.

 

Other expense, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 amounted to $(1,379,235), which represented a change in fair value of derivative liability of $(1,444,164) offset by interest expense of $58,788, and other expense of $6,141. The amount of other expense, net, was lower in the second quarter of 2018 due to the change in fair value of derivative liability and $526,871 of 2017 debt extinguishment.

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017.

 

Revenues

 

Subscription revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $16,242, compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in subscription revenues were primarily attributable to the Company’s SaaS platform that was launched during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. There was no similar transaction in the first half of 2017.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Research and development expenses were $235,733 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $181,840 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in fees for coders dedicated to software development enhancements and modifications.

 

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $4,779,429 and $1,970,028, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $2,249,846 plus an increase in labor related costs, marketing, and professional services associated with growth of the Company. The significant increase in stock-based compensation was due to increase in the price of the Company’s common stock. The price of the Company’s common stock increased from $0.10 per share at December 31, 2017 to $0.60 per share at June 30, 2018, or an average of $0.82 per share during the period ended June 30, 2018. In the prior period, the average price of the Company’s common stock was $0.18 per share.

 

Other expense, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 amounted to $1,723,612, which represented a change in fair value of derivative liability of $1,180,723, interest expense for amortization of debt discount of $747,623, interest expense of $262,721 on outstanding notes payable, $171,739 of financing costs attributed to derivative liabilities, and other expense of $12,380. These amounts were offset by a gain on extinguishment of debt, net of $(651,574). The amount of other expense, net, was higher in 2018 due to the payoff off and conversion of debt that did not occur during the first quarter of 2017.

 

Modified EBITDA

 

In addition to our GAAP results, we present Modified EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. However, Modified EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We define Modified EBITDA as net income (loss), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, financing costs and changes in fair value of derivative liability.

 

Management considers our core operating performance to be that which our managers can affect in any particular period through their management of the resources that affect our underlying revenue and profit generating operations that period. Non-GAAP adjustments to our results prepared in accordance with GAAP are itemized below. Readers are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Modified EBITDA, readers should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Modified EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

The $265,757 decrease in modified EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, resulted from the increase in labor-related costs and marketing associated with growth of the Company.

 

The $609,750 decrease in modified EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, resulted from the increase in labor-related costs, marketing and professional services associated with growth of the Company.

 

We present Modified EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Modified EBITDA in developing our internal budgets, forecasts and strategic plan; in analyzing the effectiveness of our business strategies in evaluating potential acquisitions; and in making compensation decisions and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Modified EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, which includes, among others, the following:

 

  Modified EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
     
  Modified EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
     
  Modified EBITDA does not reflect future interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts; and
     
  Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and the Modified EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Going Concern

 

We have incurred operating losses since inception and have negative cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2018, we had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,180,711 and incurred a net loss of $6,722,532. We also utilized $1,889,395 in cash during the period ended June 30, 2018. As a result, our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing until we can generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet our obligations. We intend to continue to seek additional debt or equity financing to continue our operations.

 

21
 

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies we may not continue to meet our obligations and continue our operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of our Company as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until our Company begins generating positive cash flow.

 

There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable or that debt or equity financing will be available to us in the amounts, on terms, and at times deemed acceptable to us, if at all. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business, as planned, and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Overview

 

As of June 30, 2018, we had cash of $1,420,798. We estimate our operating expenses for the next three months may continue to exceed any revenues we generate, and we may need to raise capital through either debt or equity offerings to continue operations. We are in the early stages of our business. We are required to fund growth from financing activities, and we intend to rely on a combination of equity and debt financings. Due to market conditions and the early stage of our operations, there is considerable risk that we will not be able to raise such financings at all, or on terms that are not overly dilutive to our existing stockholders. We can offer no assurance that we will be able to raise such funds. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all of our planned operations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer, and we may be forced to reduce or discontinue operations.

 

Cash Flows – Operating

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, our cash flows used in operating activities amounted to $1,889,395 compared to cash used during the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $794,754. The change is due to an increase in business activity, which resulted in an additional consulting expenses, salary, and various operating expenses in the first half of 2018 compared to the first half of 2017. In addition, the Company paid accrued interest as part of the convertible debt payoffs in quarter one 2018 and paid down accounts payable.

 

Cash Flows – Financing

 

Our cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 amounted to $3,299,633, which represented $2,978,500 of proceeds received from the issuances of our common stock, $1,000,000 of proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock from the exercise of a put option, $130,000 of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt, $34,133 of proceeds from the exercise of options, and $22,000 of proceeds from the exercise of warrants, offset by $845,000 of convertible debt payments and the repurchase of common stock equal to $20,000. Our cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 amounted to $805,000, which represented $450,000 of proceeds received from the issuances of common stock, $255,000 of proceeds received from the issuance of convertible Series A preferred stock, and $100,000 of proceeds from the issuance of a convertible note. All shares of Series A preferred stock have been converted and we filed a Certificate of Elimination / Withdrawal with the state of Nevada.

 

Warrant Liability

 

As of June 30, 2018, total liabilities are $3,686,026, of which $1,014,227 is attributable to certain outstanding warrants to purchase up to 1.7 million shares of common stock that are accounted for as derivative liability (see Note 7 Derivative Liability to the attached unaudited consolidated financial statements). Without the derivative liability, total liabilities would have been $2,671,799, of which $1,964,985 is related party debt.

 

22
 

 

As of June 30, 2018, the derivative liability of $1,014,227 relates to outstanding warrants to purchase up to 1.7 million shares of common stock issued in December 2017 and January 2018. Due to certain adjustments that may be paid to the exercise price of the warrants if the Company issues r sells rights, options, or warrants to holders of its common stock (and not to the warrant holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of its common stock at a price that is less than the closing price at the record date of such issuance, the warrants have been classified as a liability, as opposed to equity, in accordance with ASC 815-10 as it was determined that the warrants were not indexed to our common stock.

 

Notes Payable

 

The Company has the following outstanding notes payable to related parties at June 30, 2018 that are due in the current year:

(2) A total of 30% of the principal of the note can be converted to shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.07 per share.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are not required to provide the information under this Item.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require that we make certain assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period.

 

Use of 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include valuation of derivative liability, valuation of debt and equity instruments, share-based compensation arrangements, and realization of deferred tax assets. Amounts could materially change in the future.

 

23
 

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

The Company uses Level 2 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined by using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives.

 

Share-Based Payment

 

The Company issues stock options, warrants exercisable for shares of common stock, common stock, and equity interests as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees.

 

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation to employees in accordance FASB ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period.

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50 Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The final fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the performance completion date. For interim periods, the fair value is estimated, and the percentage of completion is applied to that estimate to determine the cumulative expense recorded.

 

The Company values stock compensation based on the market price on the measurement date. As described above, for employees this is the date of grant, and for non-employees, this is the date of performance completion.

 

The Company values stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to value options issued during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

 

   Six Months Ended June 30, 
   2018   2017 
Risk-free interest rate   2.25% - 2.85%    1.76% - 1.93 %
Average expected term (years)   5 years    5 years 
Expected volatility   184% -190%   157%-160%
Expected dividend yield   -    - 

 

The risk-free interest rate is based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise before. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not customarily paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d- 15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2018.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On April 24, 2018, EMA Financial, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“EMA”), commenced an action against us, styled EMA Financial, LLC, a New York limited liability company, Plaintiff, against nFUSZ, Inc., Defendant, United States District Court, Southern District of New York, case number 1:18-cv-03634-NRB. The Complaint sets forth four causes of action and seeks relief consisting of: (1) money damages, (2) injunctive relief, (3) liquidated damages; and declaratory relief. All of the claims stem from our refusal to honor EMA’s exercise notice in connection with a common stock purchase warrant that we had granted to it. We believe EMA’s allegations are entirely without merit.

 

The circumstances giving rise to the dispute are as follows: On or about December 5, 2017, we issued a warrant to EMA as part of the consideration we were required to provide in connection with a contemporaneous convertible loan EMA made to us. The loan, which was evidenced by a convertible Note, was for a term of one year. Our refusal to honor the warrant exercise notice was due to our good faith belief that EMA’s interpretation of the cashless exercise provision of the warrant was, inter alia, (i) contrary to our direct conversations and agreements made with EMA prior to, and during the preparation of the loan and warrant agreements; (2) wholly inconsistent with industry norms, standards, and practices; (3) was contrary to the cashless exercise method actually adopted by EMA’s co-lender in the same transaction; and (4) was the result of a single letter mistakenly transposed in the cashless exercise formula drafted by EMA which if adopted, would result in a gross and unintended windfall in favor of EMA and adverse to us. Moreover, as set forth in our response to EMA’s allegations, EMA’s interpretation of the cashless exercise provision would have resulted in it being issued more shares of our common stock than it would have received if it exercised the warrant for cash (instead of less), and more than the amount of shares reflected on the face of the warrant agreement itself. The loan underlying the transaction was repaid, in full, approximately three months after it was issued, on March 8, 2018, together with all accrued interest, prior to any conversion or attempted conversion of the Note.

 

25
 

 

On July 20, 2018, we filed an Answer to the Complaint, along with certain Affirmative Defenses, as well as Counterclaims seeking, inter alia, to void the entire transaction for violation of New York’s criminal usury laws and, alternatively, for reformation of the warrant conversion formula set forth in the Warrant Agreement so as to be consistent with the parties’ intent and custom and practice in the industry. We intend to vigorously defend the action, as well as vigorously prosecute our counterclaims against EMA. The action is still pending.

 

We know of no other material pending legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or to which any of our assets or properties, or the assets or properties of any of our subsidiaries, are subject and, to the best of our knowledge, no adverse legal activity is anticipated or threatened. In addition, we do not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental authorities.
