Note 1 Organization And Basis Of Presentation |
Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LiveDeal, Inc. (formerly YP Corp.), a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The Company delivers local customer acquisition services for small and medium-sized businesses combined with online listing services to deliver an affordable way for businesses to extend their marketing reach to local, relevant customers via the Internet. The Company’s new strategic focus is on delivering a suite of Internet-based, local search driven, customer acquisition services for small and medium-sized businesses, sold via telemarketing and supported by its websites and internally developed software. The following sets forth historical transactions with respect to the Company’s organizational development:
| · | Telco Billing, Inc. was formed in April 1998 to provide advertising and directory listings for businesses on its Internet website in a “Yellow Pages” format. Telco provides those services to its subscribers for a monthly fee. These services are provided primarily to businesses throughout the United States. Telco became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company after the June 1999 acquisition.
| · | At the time that the transaction was agreed to, the Company had 12,567,770 common shares issued and outstanding. As a result of the merger transaction with Telco, there were 29,567,770 common shares outstanding, and the former Telco stockholders held approximately 57% of the Company’s voting stock. For financial accounting purposes, the acquisition was a reverse acquisition of the Company by Telco, under the purchase method of accounting, and was treated as a recapitalization with Telco as the acquirer. Consistent with reverse acquisition accounting, (i) all of Telco’s assets, liabilities, and accumulated deficit were reflected at their combined historical cost (as the accounting acquirer) and (ii) the preexisting outstanding shares of the Company (the accounting acquiree) were reflected at their net asset value as if issued on June 16, 1999.
| · | On June 6, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc. (“LiveDeal”), a California corporation. LiveDeal operated an online local classifieds marketplace, www.livedeal.com, which listed millions of goods and services for sale across the United States. The technology acquired in the acquisition offered such classifieds functionality as fraud protection, identity protection, e-commerce, listing enhancements, photos, community-building, package pricing, premium stores, featured Yellow Page business listings and advanced local search capabilities. This business has since been discontinued – see Note 3.
| · | On July 10, 2007, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of OnCall Subscriber Management Inc., a Manila, Philippines-based company that provided telemarketing services. The acquisition took place through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, 247 Marketing LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, which remains in existence but is inactive.
| · | On August 10, 2007, the Company filed amended and restated articles of incorporation with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, pursuant to which the Company’s name was changed to LiveDeal, Inc., effective August 15, 2007. The name change was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors pursuant to discretion granted to it by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting on August 2, 2007.
| · | During 2009, the Company made strategic changes that impacted the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the following manner:
| o | Impairment charges of $16,111,494 were recorded related to the write-down of the Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets;
| o | The Company commenced a plan to discontinue its classifieds business and initiated shutdown activities and has reflected the operating results of this line of business as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations;
| o | The Company sold a portion of its customer list associated with its directory services business and recorded a gain of $3,040,952; and
| o | The Company established a valuation allowance of $10,586,854 related to its deferred tax assets, as described in Note 12.
| · | During 2010, the Company evaluated its business and adopted a new business strategy that addressed each of the Company’s business segments as separate entities and re-launched and restructured the Company’s legacy line of business. This evaluation was necessitated by the challenges facing the Company’s Direct Sales business lines that provide Internet-based customer acquisition strategies for small business, as well as declining revenues from the Company’s traditional business line (i.e. directory services).
| · | During 2011, as part of the Company’s strategy to evaluate each of the Company’s business segments as separate entities, management noted that the Direct Sales business segment had incurred operating losses and declining revenues and did not fit with the Company’s change in strategic direction. Accordingly, in March 2011, the Company made the strategic decision to discontinue our Direct Sales business and product offerings. Prior year financial statements have been restated to present the Direct Sales business segment as a discontinued operation.
| · | During 2012, the Company launched two new business lines under new management after a period of re-evaluating our sales program, products, distribution methods and vendor programs. First, we commenced the sale of marketing tools that help local businesses manage their online presence under our Velocity Local™ brand, which we refer to as online presence marketing, in November 2012. Second, we commenced sourcing local deal and activities to strategic publishing partners under our LiveDeal® brand, which we refer to as promotional marketing, in August 2012. We continue to actively develop, revise and evaluate these products and services.
The Company had a net loss of $1.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2012, and $5.5 million for the year ended September 30, 2011. The Company had an operating cash flow of $29,000 for the year ended September 30, 2012, and $4.3 million for the year ended September 30, 2011. The Company had cash of $1,305,735 as of September 30, 2012. The Company has significantly reduced operating expenses by reviewing all expenses and improving operating efficiencies. Management believes the Company’s cash on hand and additional cash generated from operations together with potential sources of cash such through the issuance of debt or equity will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months. Effects of Stock Split Effective August 10, 2011, the Company implemented a 20-for-19 stock split with respect to issued and outstanding shares of its common stock. The stock split was in the form of a stock dividend, with one (1) share of the Company’s common stock issued in respect of every 19 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of July 29, 2011, the record date for the stock split. Any fractional shares otherwise issuable as a result of the stock split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated for the effects of the stock split described above.
