Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any future period. The December 31, 2009 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from our audited financial statements at that date. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Findex.com, Inc. included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
In accordance with ASC 985-20-25, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility and marketability has been established, generally with release of a beta version for customer testing. Once the point of technological feasibility and marketability is reached, direct production costs (including labor directly associated with the development projects), indirect costs (including allocated fringe benefits, payroll taxes, facilities costs, and management supervision), and other direct costs (including costs of outside consultants, purchased software to be included in the software product being developed, travel expenses, material and supplies, and other direct costs) are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. We amortize capitalized costs on a product-by-product basis. Amortization for each period is the greater of the amount computed using (i) the straight-line basis over the estimated product life (generally from 12 to 18 months, but up to 60 months), or (ii) the ratio of current revenues to total projected product revenues. Total cumulative capitalized software development costs were $1,084,106, less accumulated amortization of $810,125 at March 31, 2010.
Capitalized software development costs are stated at the lower of amortized costs or net realizable value. Recoverability of these capitalized costs is determined at each balance sheet date by comparing the forecasted future revenues from the related products, based on management’s best estimates using appropriate assumptions and projections at the time, to the carrying amount of the capitalized software development costs. If the carrying value is determined not to be recoverable from future revenues, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the future revenues. To date, no capitalized costs have been written down to net realizable value.
ASC 730, Research and Development, established accounting and reporting standards for research and development. In accordance with ASC 730-10, costs we incur to enhance our existing products after general release to the public (bug fixes) are expensed in the period they are incurred and included in research and development costs. Research and development costs incurred prior to determination of technological feasibility and marketability and after general release to the public and charged to expense were $71,033 and $25,175 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, included in general and administrative expenses.
We capitalize costs related to the development of computer software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with the ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. Software obtained for internal use has generally been enterprise level business and finance software that we customize to meet our specific operational needs. We have not sold, leased, or licensed software developed for internal use to our customers and have no intention of doing so in the future.
We capitalize costs related to the development and maintenance of our website in accordance with ASC 350-50, Website Development Costs. Accordingly, costs expensed as incurred are as follows:
| |
▪
|
planning the website,
|
| |
▪
|
developing the applications and infrastructure until technological feasibility is established,
|
| |
▪
|
developing graphics such as borders, background and text colors, fonts, frames, and buttons, and
|
| |
▪
|
operating the site such as training, administration and maintenance.
|
Capitalized costs include those incurred to:
| |
▪
|
obtain and register an Internet domain name,
|
| |
▪
|
develop or acquire software tools necessary for the development work,
|
| |
▪
|
develop or acquire software necessary for general website operations,
|
| |
▪
|
develop or acquire code for web applications,
|
| |
▪
|
develop or acquire (and customize) database software and software to integrate applications such as corporate databases and accounting systems into web applications,
|
| |
▪
|
develop HTML web pages or templates,
|
| |
▪
|
install developed applications on the web server,
|
| |
▪
|
create initial hypertext links to other websites or other locations within the website, and
|
| |
▪
|
test the website applications.
|
We amortize website development costs on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the site, generally 36 months. Total cumulative website development costs, included in “Other assets” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, were $150,084, less accumulated amortization of $68,356 at March 31, 2010.
RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash represents cash held in reserve by our merchant banker to allow for a potential increase in credit card charge backs from increased consumer purchases. Total restricted cash included in “Other assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $ -0- and $6,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
We follow the guidance of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to calculate and report basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by giving effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock that were outstanding during the period. For us, dilutive potential shares of common stock consist of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants for all periods, convertible notes payable and the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock.
When discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and/or the cumulative effect of an accounting change are present, income before any of such items on a per share basis represents the “control number” in determining whether potential shares of common stock are dilutive or anti-dilutive. Thus, the same number of potential shares of common stock used in computing diluted EPS for income from continuing operations is used in calculating all other reported diluted EPS amounts. In the case of a net loss, it is assumed that no incremental shares would be issued because they would be anti-dilutive. In addition, certain options and warrants are considered anti-dilutive because the exercise prices were above the average market price during the period. Anti-dilutive shares are not included in the computation of diluted EPS, in accordance with ASC 260-10-45-17.
The following table shows the amounts used in computing earnings per common share and the average number of shares of dilutive potential common stock:

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (amendments to ASC 820). ASU 2010-06 requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements including transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and a higher level of disaggregation for the different types of financial instruments. For the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements should be presented separately. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Adoption of ASU 2010-06 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
.
Certain Revenue Arrangements That Contain Software Elements
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements, (amendments to ASC 985). ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-14 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively for new or materially modified arrangements. Adoption of ASU 2009-14 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, (amendments to ASC 605). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) or third-party evidence of the selling price. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively for new or materially modified arrangements. Adoption of ASU 2009-13 will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States applicable to a going concern. As of March 31, 2010, we had a net loss of $165,590, and negative working capital of $1,419,033, and an accumulated deficit of $8,864,054 and $8,698,465 as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Although these factors raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern through December 31, 2010, we are taking several actions intended to mitigate against this risk. These actions include pursuing the sale of product lines and pursuing mergers and acquisitions that will provide profitable operations and positive operating cash flow.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that may arise in the ordinary course of our business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these potential actions will not materially affect our financial statements taken as a whole.
Our employment agreements with our management team each contain a provision for an annual bonus equal to 1% of our income from operations adjusted for other income and interest expense (3% total). We accrue this bonus on a quarterly basis ($-0- at March 31, 2010). Our management team consists of the following:
| |
|
Chief Executive Officer
|
|
|
Chief Technology Officer
|
|
|

In addition to the bonus provisions and annual base salary, each employment agreement provides for payment of the following for termination by reason of disability.
| |
|

|
|
Included in Other current liabilities at March 31, 2010
|
|
$ |

|

$ |

|
The agreements also provide for severance compensation equal to the then base salary until the later of (i) the expiration of the term of the agreement as set forth therein or (ii) one year, when the termination is other than for cause (including termination by reason of disability). There is no severance compensation in the event of voluntary termination or termination for cause. See Note 8.
We have included content in QuickVerse, our flagship software product, under contracts with publisher providers that have expired. We are currently pursuing resolution, however, there is no guarantee that we will be able to secure a new agreement, or an extension, and should any of the publishers demand we cease and desist including their content, the unknown potential negative impact could be material.
Our royalty agreements for new content generally provide for advance payments to be made upon contract signing. In addition, several new agreements provide for additional advance payments to be made upon delivery of usable content and publication. We accrue and pay these advances when the respective milestone is met.
We do not collect sales taxes or other taxes with respect to shipments of most of our goods into most states in the U.S. Our fulfillment center and customer service center networks, and any future expansion of those networks, along with other aspects of our evolving business, may result in additional sales and other tax obligations. One or more states may seek to impose sales or other tax collection obligations on out-of-jurisdiction companies that engage in e-commerce. A successful assertion by one or more states that we should collect sales or other taxes on the sale of merchandise or services could result in substantial tax liabilities for past sales, decrease our ability to compete with traditional retailers, and otherwise harm our business.
Currently, decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court restrict the imposition of obligations to collect state and local taxes and use taxes with respect to sales made over the Internet. However, a number of states, as well as the U.S. Congress, have been considering various initiatives that could limit or supersede the Supreme Court’s constitutional concerns and result in a reversal of its current position. As a result, we could be required to collect sales and use taxes in additional states. The imposition by state and local governments of various taxes upon Internet commerce could create administrative burdens for us, put us at a competitive disadvantage if they do not impose similar obligations on all of our online competitors and decrease our future sales.
NOTE 7 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Our future operating results may be affected by a number of factors. We depend upon a number of major inventory and intellectual property suppliers. If a critical supplier had operational problems or ceased making materials available to us, operations could be adversely affected.
NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The employment agreements with our management team each expired on April 14, 2010. None of the agreements were extended nor are new agreements being considered. See Note 6.
Management has reviewed and evaluated material subsequent events from the balance sheet date of March 31, 2010 through the financial statements issue date of May 17, 2010. All appropriate subsequent disclosures, if any, have been made in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Findex.com, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

Description of Business
We develop, publish, market, and distribute and directly sell off-the-shelf consumer and organizational software products for PC, Macintosh® and PDA platforms. We develop our software products through in-house initiatives supplemented by outside developers. We market and distribute our software products principally through direct marketing and Internet sales programs, but also through secular and non-secular wholesale retailers.
We are currently in the early stages of a defining transformative period in our development. In recent years, we have come to be recognized as a consumer desktop software company that serves a demographic defined largely by an interest in Christianity and faith-based “inspirational” values. The nature of our products historically, and the fact that our product lines have not extended materially beyond the boundaries of this affinity group, have fostered this perception. Indeed, as the publisher of one of the industry-leading Bible study desktop software products, QuickVerse®, we are known to many users of that product only as “QuickVerse”, not Findex. While we believe that the QuickVerse® brand has substantial brand recognition, and we greatly value the goodwill that our reputation in this regard has engendered, we also believe that working to expand that reputation into one which is more closely associated with providing high quality branded software and content products generally – and ones that extend across both consumer and business segments – will afford us significantly greater opportunities in both the near and long term to steadily increase revenues and earnings, and, ultimately, to enhance shareholder value.
As part of that objective, we acquired FormTool.com and the FormTool® line of products in February 2008. In September 2008, we re-launched the FormTool.com website as an online marketplace for purchasing the FormTool® line of form creation and form filler products, and also a one-stop shop for finding, purchasing and downloading customizable forms for a wide range of business and consumer needs. Our model includes the ability to purchase forms on an individual basis, in bulk packs, or on a subscription basis.
Management Overview
During the first quarter of 2010, we focused on our two product lines, QuickVerse® and FormTool® and their respective websites. Specifically, we focused on expanding the content for the QuickVerse® product line and an upgrade to the FormTool® website. Overall, we continued to concentrate on building our technology platform and infrastructure in order to become a more Webcentric provider of online products.
While we did not release any new collections for our QuickVerse® product line during the first quarter of 2010, we did reintroduce, reformat and make available as a downloadable product the following two content collections:
| |
▪
|
Fisherman Study Guide Series Complete Collection with a retail price of $169.95; and
|
| |
▪
|
Spiritual Encounter Guides with a retail price of $29.95.
|
In addition, during the first quarter of 2010 our development team began working on our annual upgrade release of the QuickVerse® Windows platform. Finally, we continued working on the revamping of our website for our FormTool® product line in order to add greater functionality to the website. Although there can be no assurance, this revamped website is scheduled to be launched in the second quarter of 2010.

The differing results of operations are primarily attributable to the following:
| |
▪
|
a decrease in net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 partly attributable to the following:
|
| |
|
▪
|
the decreased number of upgrade sales;
|
| |
|
▪
|
the decreased number of product releases; and
|
| |
|
▪
|
the current economic downturn; and
|
| |
▪
|
a decrease in sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 arising from our continuous efforts to cut costs.
|
Our software products are highly seasonal. More than 50% of our annual sales are expected to occur in the five months of September through January; the five months of April through August are generally our weakest, generating less than 30% of our annual sales.

During each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, our sales efforts were focused on directly targeting end-users through telemarketing and Internet sales. Due to the increased frequency and consistency in our development schedule in regards to the annual release of our flagship product, QuickVerse®, upgrade sales have not been increasing at as rapid a rate as they have in previous years; and therefore, we experienced a decrease in gross revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decreased number of product releases for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010 were also contributing factors to the decrease in our gross revenues. Finally, we believe the current economic downturn has had a negative impact on our retail sales as well as our direct sales. Although there can be no assurance, we anticipate that our revenues in the future related to the QuickVerse® product line will remain moderately consistent with our 2009 quarterly and annual figures as we continue to expand the content made available for our QuickVerse® products on multiple platforms, offer our products at a range of price points intended to appeal to various market sub-segments and offer new venues to gain access to the expanded content available for our QuickVerse® customers.
Nonetheless, during the three months ended March 31, 2010, we did recognize approximately $43,000 in revenue from the FormTool® product line, which was an increase of approximately $12,000 from approximately $31,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Although there can be no assurance, we do anticipate our revenues in relation to the FormTool® product line to increase in the near-term based on our anticipated enhancements of the revamped FormTool.com website and our continued sales of the upgrade release of the FormTool® 7.0 desktop product line which was released in September 2008.
As a percentage of gross revenues, our sales returns and allowances decreased significantly for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to March 31, 2009. Typically, product returns trend upward after a new version is released as distributors and retail stores return old product in exchange for the new version release. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is attributed to our distributors and retail stores returning a majority of their old product exchange of QuickVerse® 2009 for the newest version release QuickVerse® 2010 during the last three months of the year ended December 31, 2009. In past years, these returns and exchanges generally have taken place in the first quarter of the year. Furthermore, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 we had increased our reserve of sales returns due to the downturn in the economic environment. Generally going forward, it is our objective to release enhanced versions of our biggest-selling products on an annual basis, and as a percentage of gross revenues we anticipate sales returns and allowances to decrease over time as a result of increased stability in the functionality of our products, decreasing reliance on retail sales and increasing reliance on direct sales, which have historically resulted in fewer returns, and improved planning in the timing of new product version releases.

Cost of sales consists primarily of direct costs, amortization of capitalized software development costs, non-capitalized technical support wages, royalties accrued to third party providers of intellectual property and the costs associated with reproducing, packaging, fulfilling and shipping our products.
The net increase in cost of sales between the three months ended March 31, 2010 and the corresponding period during 2009 is predominately attributable to increased amortization of software development costs and increased royalties. Offsetting to some degree is the decrease in direct costs, which is a result of scaling down our technical support department as our products continue to become more functionally stable. Furthermore, the releases of QuickVerse® Macintosh 3.0 in August 2009 and the QuickVerse® Commentary Series in December 2009 led to the increased amount of amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2010. We did not have a Macintosh release during 2008 which led to less amortization during 2009.
Royalties increased in real terms and as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase in royalty expense is due to fewer sales returns for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as well as the increased sales in the Macintosh platform of our QuickVerse® product line in relation to the recent upgrade release. Although there can be no assurance, we anticipate our royalty accruals to either remain stable or increase in the future in real terms as sales to new customers increase, more development projects are implemented for new and/or enhanced products, and as we continue to expand the content available for our QuickVerse® line of products. Upgrade sales will remain only subject to royalties on their content additions.
Freight costs remained stable as a percentage of gross revenues as a result of decreased sales volume as well as our internal transformation to provide more of our software products to be delivered via a download from our website. Although there can be no assurance, we anticipate freight costs to remain consistent with this current trend as we focus our sales efforts on direct and/or upgrade sales and continue to advertise and enhance the ability to offer our software products as downloads from our website. Fulfillment costs decreased in real terms as we have reduced our fulfillment workforce due to the decreased sales volume.
The amortization recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2010 resulted mainly from the following software releases:
| |
▪
|
FormTool® 7.0 (released September 2008),
|
| |
▪
|
QuickVerse® 2009 (released October 2008),
|
| |
▪
|
QuickVerse® Macintosh 3.0 (released August 2009),
|
| |
▪
|
QuickVerse® 2010 (released October 2009),
|
| |
▪
|
QuickVerse® Commentary Series (released December 2009) and
|
| |
▪
|
Multiple new content additions for QuickVerse® products (released April 2007 through August 2009).
|
Comparatively, during the three months ended March 31, 2009, the amortization recognized resulted mainly from the following software releases:
| |
▪
|
FormTool® 7.0 (released September 2008),
|
| |
▪
|
QuickVerse® 2009 (released October 2008),
|
| |
▪
|
Charles H. Spurgeon Collection (released February 2009),
|
| |
▪
|
Sermon Builder 5.0 (released March 2009) and
|
| |
▪
|
Multiple new content additions for QuickVerse® products (released April 2007 through November 2008).
|
As stated above, the increase in amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is the result of fewer development projects that were released during the fiscal year 2008 which ultimately led to less amortization for the year of 2009. In the future, our objective is to realize overall increases in revenues due to aggressive product development and release schedules as well as the acquisitions of new product lines.
In the future, as we continue to implement our strategy to become a principally Webcentric provider of online products, we anticipate experiencing a decrease in cost of sales, specifically direct costs, freight and fulfillment, as more of our products will become available for download.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the decrease in capitalized costs as well as the increase in research and development expense is the result of fewer key development projects being worked on by our development team. Comparatively for the three months ended March 31, 2009 our development team was focusing their efforts on several new software projects, such as QuickVerse® Macintosh 3.0 and Sermon Builder 5.0, as well as website development projects. Overall, we continue to experience increased efficiency in our development output (both internal and external) as evidenced by our development team meeting internal project completion dates in relation to our QuickVerse® product line.

As gross revenues decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2010, total sales, marketing and general and administrative costs also significantly decreased. We have discontinued our contract with a third party for telemarketing services, and therefore, no longer incur commission fees. Although there can be no assurance, we do not anticipate relying on a third party for telemarketing services in the future. Advertising and direct marketing costs remained relatively stable, and we anticipate these costs to remain on this current trend in future periods. We continue to focus on enhancing our product visibility online by increasing and focusing more on our direct marketing efforts, while limiting the scope and frequency of our print advertising campaigns to those that we can capitalize on the most in order to maximize sales associated with new products, product enhancements and potential new product lines. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, sales and marketing wages - reclassified, decreased as a result of streamlining our CBA sales team, and therefore, we anticipate a decrease in future periods. Furthermore, during the three months ended March 31, 2009 we recognized approximately $21,000 of expense related to 725,000 restricted shares of common stock issued to our sales team employees. While we would like to expand our in-house direct-telemarketing sales team in relation to our current and potential new product lines, we may not be able to do so in the immediate future due to budget constraints that we have imposed as a result of our weak working capital position and the current, relatively unfavorable macro-economic climate for non-essential consumer products.
In addition to the decrease in total net personnel costs, gross direct salaries and wages, before adjustments of capitalized wages and reclassifications, decreased approximately $167,000, from approximately $389,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to approximately $222,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, we recognized approximately $105,000 of expense related to 3,357,143 restricted shares of common stock issued to employees as compensation for services rendered January 1, 2004 through December 31, 2008. The decrease in gross personnel costs is the result of the departure of a member of the product development team as we have streamlined this department with external, independently contracted developers, the reduction in our technical support staff as our software products become more stable, the loss of our Vice President of Sales as we have restructured our CBA sales team, the departure of a customer service representative as well as a member of the accounting team and a member of the fulfillment team. As a percentage of gross revenues, gross direct salaries and wages decreased approximately 20% from approximately 60% for the three months March 31, 2009 to approximately 40% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Due to workforce reductions attributable to the current, relatively unfavorable macro-economic climate for non-essential consumer products, we anticipate direct salaries and wages to decrease in the future.
The decrease in the amortization and depreciation expense is mainly attributable to the decrease in amortization. The software license we acquired in 1999, from which we derive our base intellectual property rights associated with the products that are responsible for generating the overwhelming majority of our revenues (the “1999 license”), was being amortized over a 10 year useful life and became fully amortized as of June 30, 2009. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 reflects the continual amortization of the 1999 license. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 the amortization expense reflects the amortization of the FormTool® assets we acquired in February 2008. The FormTool® assets are amortized over a period of years that range from less than one year to ten years and approximate $3,000 of amortization expense each month. Finally, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 we recognized amortization expense for our FormTool® website, www.formtool.com, which was successfully re-launched in September 2008. Overall, we anticipate amortization and depreciation expense to decrease in future periods as the amortization related to the 1999 license has ceased.
Research and development costs include direct production costs (including labor directly associated with the development projects), indirect costs (including allocated fringe benefits, payroll taxes, facilities costs and management supervision), and other direct costs (including costs of outside consultants, purchased software to be included in the software product being developed, travel expenses, material and supplies, and other direct costs). The increase in software development costs related to third-party developers and direct labor expensed as research and development reflects less capitalization of research and development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Comparatively, during the three months ended March 31, 2009 our development staff was working on several development projects which resulted in greater capitalization of research and development costs and a decrease in research and development costs expensed. In future periods, we anticipate research and development expenses to either slightly decrease or remain stable as we have experienced increased efficiency in our development output (both internal and external).
Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, based on uncertainty about the timing of and ability to generate future taxable income and our assessment that the realization of the deferred tax assets no longer met the “more likely than not” criterion for realization, we provided for a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. If we determine that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance would be recorded in the period when such determination is made.
Liquidity And Capital Resources
Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are the working capital requirements of our continued operations, which includes the ongoing internal development of new products, expansion and upgrade of existing products, and marketing and sales, as well as funding for the acquisition of new product lines and/or companies. At this time it is unlikely that cash generated through our continuing operations will be sufficient to sustain our continuing operations. Furthermore, our pursuit of an aggressive growth plan, whether based on internally developed products, licensing opportunities, or strategic product line and/or company acquisitions, will likely require funding from outside sources or the divestiture of one or more existing product lines (as occurred with respect to our Membership Plus® product line). Funding from outside sources may include but is not limited to the pursuit of other financing options such as commercial loans, common stock and/or preferred stock issuances and convertible notes. At this time, we have no legally committed funds for future capital expenditures.
The divestiture of our Membership Plus® product line in October 2007 was driven by a combination of our need to raise cash and a strategic determination to begin a long-term shift in our product lines away from those within the faith-based vertical market and more towards those that extend across the business-to-business and consumer segments more generally. With a portion of the funds we realized from the sale of our Membership Plus® product line, we purchased FormTool® in February 2008 which was our first product line acquisition outside of the faith-based market. Although there can be no assurance, we anticipate acquiring additional product lines and/or entering into business combinations which will either replace or increase the revenue and free cash flow previously produced by the Membership Plus® product line.

While liquidity for our day-to-day continued operations remains an ongoing concern for us, and while there can be no continuing assurance, given the fact that a substantial portion of our net sales – 63% of which we collected during the year ended December 31, 2009 through credit card processing transactions – are able to be collected in a much shorter timeframe (several days) than that in which we must generally pay our trade payables (30 days) and our accrued royalties (quarterly, semi-annually, or annually), the situation suggested by our consistently and significantly negative ratio of current assets to current liabilities has historically been manageable.

Net cash used by operating activities increased for the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to mainly a reduction in cash received from customers which was offset in part by a reduction in payments made to content providers, vendors and employees.
The decrease in net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was due to the lack of investing activities related to capitalized software and website development costs.
The increase in net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was the result of continued payments made on long-term notes payable, which included an additional note payable to an advertising vendor as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009.
Financing
We have been unable to secure bank financing due to our internal financial ratios and negative working capital position and do not expect that we will be successful in securing any such financing unless and until our ratios in this regard improve. However, it may be possible to secure financing on our open accounts receivable in order to satisfy our future financing needs. Equity financing, too, remains an option for us, though no definitive prospects for any such financing have been specifically identified.
Contractual Liabilities
In May 2007, we secured an operating lease with a third-party for our corporate office facility in Omaha, Nebraska with terms extending through May 2012. We also secured an operating lease with a third-party for a warehouse facility in Omaha, Nebraska with terms extending through June 2010. In accordance with the terms of these leasehold agreements, we are responsible for all associated taxes, insurance and utility expenses.
At March 31, 2010, the total future minimum rental payments required under these leases is approximately $123,000 through the year 2012.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q March 31, 2010, and have determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010, and to the best knowledge of our officers and directors, there were no pending material legal proceedings to which we were a party and we were not aware that any were contemplated. There can be no assurance, however, that we will not be made a party to litigation in the future.
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
There were no reportable events under this Item 2 during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010.
As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010, we are in default under a certain unsecured term note payable to a shareholder in the total amount of approximately $75,000. The arrearage as of such date was $56,000, plus interest. In accordance with the terms of the note, our default has triggered an acceleration of the entire balance plus accumulated interest.
There were no reportable events under this Item 4 during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010.
There were no reportable events under this Item 5 during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010.
