Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Live Ventures, Incorporated, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The Company is a holding company for diversified businesses. The Company promoted online marketing solutions to small and medium businesses to help them boost customer awareness, gain visibility and manage their online presence. The Company also offered affordable acquisition services to the small businesses through the Instant Agency suite of products and services. The Company continues to actively develop, revise and evaluate its products, services and its marketing strategies in its businesses. Under the Live Ventures brand the Company seeks opportunities to acquire profitable and well-managed companies. The Company believes that with the proper positioning and its investment capital these companies can become very profitable. With its recent acquisition of Marquis Industries, Inc., the Company became engaged in the manufacture and sale of carpet and the sale of vinyl and wood floorcoverings. Effective October 7, 2015, the Company changed its corporate name from LiveDeal, Inc. to Live Ventures, Incorporated. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, this interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2016. The accompanying note disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of September 30, 2015 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on January 13, 2016. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions have been made by management throughout the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, including in conjunction with establishing allowances for customer refunds, non-paying customers, dilution and fees, analyzing the recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets, evaluating the merits of pending litigation, estimating forfeitures of stock-based compensation, valuing beneficial conversion features in convertible debt, and evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
