EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q/A”) amends our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 previously filed on May 15, 2019 (the “Original Filing”). We are filing this Form 10-Q/A to correct an inadvertent scrivener’s error in Note 8 - Convertible Promissory Note. The Company incorrectly stated that after the quarter ended certain convertible notes were converted into 1,333,333 unregistered shares of Inuvo’s common stock, when in fact the correct statement was that certain convertible notes, subject to certain conditions, are currently convertible into 1,333,333 unregistered shares of Inuvo common stock. This scrivener’s error had no impact on the consolidated financial statements contained in the Original Filing and no other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q/A speaks as of the filing date of the Original Filing, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing, and does not modify or update in any way any other disclosures made in the Original Filing. This Form 10-Q/A also includes current dated certifications by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as Exhibit 32.1 and 32.2, respectively, hereto.

Inuvo, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization and Business
Company Overview
Inuvo, Inc. is a technology company that provides data-driven platforms that can automatically identify and message online audiences for any product or service across devices, channels and formats, including video, mobile, connected TV, display, social and native. These capabilities allow Inuvo’s clients to engage with their customers and prospects in a manner that drives engagement from the first contact with the consumer. Inuvo facilitates over a billion marketing messages to consumers every single month and counts among its clients numerous world-renowned names in industries that have included retail, automotive, insurance, health care, technology, telecommunications and finance. Inuvo counts among its many contractual relationships, three clients who collectively manage over 50% of all US digital advertising budgets.
Inuvo’s solution incorporates a proprietary form of artificial intelligence, or AI, branded the IntentKey. This sophisticated machine learning technology uses interactions with Internet content as a source of information from which to predict consumer intent. The AI includes a continually updated database of over 500 million machine profiles which Inuvo utilizes to deliver highly aligned online audiences to its clients. Inuvo earns revenue when consumers view or click on its client’s messages. Inuvo’s business scales through account management activity with existing clients and by adding new clients through sales activity.
As part of Inuvo’s technology strategy, it owns a collection of websites like alot.com and earnspendlive.com, where Inuvo creates content in health, finance, travel, careers, auto, education and living categories. These sites provide the means to test Inuvo’s technologies, while also delivering high quality consumers to clients through the interaction with proprietary content in the form of images, videos, slideshows and articles.
There are many barriers to entry to Inuvo’s business that would require proficiency in large scale data center management, software development, data products, analytics, artificial intelligence, integration to the internet of things, or IOT, the relationships required to execute within the IOT and the ability to process tens of billions of transactions dailyOur intellectual property is protected by 15 issued and eight pending patents.
Recent Developments
On November 2, 2018, Inuvo entered into the Merger Agreement with ConversionPoint Technologies ("CPT"), ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPT (“Parent”), CPT Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“CPT Merger Sub”), and CPT Cigar Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Inuvo Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Inuvo will merge with and into Inuvo Merger Sub with Inuvo as the surviving corporation in the Inuvo Merger (the “Inuvo Merger”), and CPT merging with and into CPT Merger Sub with CPT as the surviving corporation in the CPT Merger (the “CPT Merger” and collectively with the Inuvo Merger, the “Merger”). Upon consummation of the Merger, CPT and Inuvo will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parent.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger our stockholders will be entitled to receive $0.45 in cash and 0.18877 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of Inuvo, and CPT’s stockholders will be entitled to receive 0.9840 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of CPT. Each outstanding option to acquire a share of our common stock will be converted into an option to acquire 0.2370 shares of Parent’s common stock. In addition, unvested restricted stock units will vest in full immediately prior to consummation of the Merger and will be entitled to receive the merger consideration. No fractional shares of Parent common stock will be issued in the Merger and Parent stockholders and CPT stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional interests.
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from each party to the agreement, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of the CPT’s and Inuvo’s businesses during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Merger, (2) our obligations to facilitate our stockholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger, (3) CPT’s obligations to facilitate its stockholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the CPT Merger,
10

(4) the recommendation by our Board of Directors in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger by our stockholders, and (5) Inuvo’s non-solicitation obligations relating to alternative business combination transactions.
The completion of the Merger is subject to (1) the approval of CPT’s stockholders and Inuvo’s stockholders, (2) regulatory approvals, (3) the closing of financing to the Parent of $36,000,000 (the “Financing”), (4) the approval of the listing of shares of Parent’s common stock on NASDAQ, (5) the delivery of customary opinions from counsel to the CPT and Inuvo to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes (6) Parent entering into separation agreements with Mr. Howe, our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ruiz, our Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and Mr. Pisaris, our General Counsel, and (7) other customary closing conditions. Immediately following the Merger, Mr. Howe will serve as non-executive chairman of the Board of Directors of the Parent and an additional individual appointed by Inuvo shall serve on the seven member board of directors of the Parent.
The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights for both Inuvo and CPT and further provides that (1) a termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by us to CPT in certain circumstances; and (2) a termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by CPT to Inuvo in certain circumstances, including if the Parent fails to consummate the Financing by May 31, 2019.
In addition, on November 1, 2018, Inuvo and ConversionPoint Investments, LLC., an affiliate of CPT (the "Noteholder") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for up to $2 million pursuant to which Inuvo issued and sold a $1,000,000 principal amount 10% senior unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note ("the Subordinated Promissory Note") to the Noteholder which we are using for working capital. The terms of the Subordinated Promissory Note are described in Note 8.
On March 1, 2019, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 2, 2018 (the “Amendment”) to (i) due to the delays in the SEC’s ability to review and declare effective securities filings because of the government shutdown, extend the outside date for New Parent to receive funding in a financing from May 31, 2019 to July 12, 2019, and extend the outside termination date for closing of the Mergers from June 30, 2019, to August 5, 2019, (ii) permit the issuances of the above described Notes and permit us to issue up to 3,272,728 shares of common stock or securities convertible into up to 3,272,728 shares of our common stock, and waive any breach of our representations, warranties, or covenants that would be caused by the stock issuance. Our exchange ratio of 0.18877 shares of New Parent common stock for each share of our common stock for the stock portion of the merger consideration is adjusted downward to account for the dilutive effect of the stock issuance, and (iii) permit us to amend our articles of incorporation to increase the amount of its authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000.
On December 17, 2018 the Parent filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC for, among other matters, the stockholder meetings to be held by each of Inuvo and CPT. As a result of the recent shutdown of the U.S. government between December 22, 2018 and January 25, 2019, the processing of this registration statement by the SEC was delayed. On April 9, 2019, the S-4 filing became effective.
On May 8, 2019, Inuvo held its Special Meetings of Stockholders. The stockholders approved the Merger and all other proposals.
Liquidity
On October 11, 2018, we entered into the Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Financing Agreement”) with Western Alliance Bank. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement, which is secured by all of our assets, superseded in its entirety the prior the Business Financing Agreement, as amended, that we entered into on March 1, 2012 with Bridge Bank, N.A. which is now owned by Western Alliance Bank. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement does not have a term and either party may terminate upon notice to the other party.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, our revenues declined 24.6% from the same period in the prior year. The lower revenue in the three-month period of 2019 is principally responsible for our $2.5 million net loss. Of the loss, approximately $1.3 million were the non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization, derivative liability and stock-based compensation. Further, we had roughly $501 thousand of Merger related costs within the three month period ending March 31, 2019. Since our credit facility is dependent upon receivables, and we do not know when, if ever, that our revenues will return to historic levels or if we will be able to replace those lost revenues with revenues from other sources, the combination of lower credit availability and recent negative cash flows generated from operating activities introduces potential risk to operation without interruption. As described earlier in this report, on November 2, 2018, we entered into the Merger Agreement. At the closing the Merger, which is subject to a number of conditions precedent,, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPT. In addition, on November 1, 2018, we borrowed $1 million from an affiliate of CPT which we are using for working
11

capital, and on November 2, 2018, four directors of the Company lent us $62,500 each, for an aggregate of $250,000, to cover certain costs associated with the pending Merger. In March 2019, we sold an aggregate of $1,440,000 Original Issue Discount Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Notes due September 1, 2020 in a private placement and received $1,200,000 in proceeds which we are using for working capital. There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to generate revenues, report profitable operations or close the Merger in which case we would need to find additional sources of credit and make substantial reductions to operating expense. We may not have sufficient cash and credit to operate until the Merger closes. We may have to find additional sources of credit and/or make substantial reductions in our operating expense. A substantial reduction of operating expense may cause disruption to the business and the generation of future revenue. Given the above conditions, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Customer concentration
We generated the majority of our revenue from two Demand side customers, Yahoo! and Google as noted below:

| For the Three Months Ended March 31,
| 2019 | 2018
Yahoo! | 73.6% | 70.5 | %
Google | 11.7% | 9.5 | %
Total | 85.3% | 80.0 | %

As of March 31, 2019, Yahoo! and Google accounted for 76.2% of our gross accounts receivable balance. As of December 31, 2018, two Demand side customers, Yahoo! and Google, accounted for 71.1% of our gross accounts receivable balance.
We still source the majority of our Demand revenue through these relationships where we have access to advertiser budgets indirectly. While this strategy creates a concentration risk, we believe that it also provides upside opportunities including; access to hundreds of thousands of advertisers across geographies; the ability to scale our business across verticals; an avoidance of the sales costs associated with a large direct to advertisers’ sales force; access to innovation; overall media budget market insights; attractive payment terms; and low risk on receivables.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements presented are for Inuvo, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon SEC rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with those rules and regulations. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the SEC on March 15, 2019.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in accordance with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s regular evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to allowances for doubtful accounts, accrued sales reserve, goodwill and purchased intangible asset valuations, lives of intangible assets, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances and stock
12

compensation. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and such differences could be material.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (Topic 606) "Revenue from
Contracts with Customers." Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach and elected to apply the new guidance only to contracts that were not complete as of the date of adoption. The cumulative impact to retained earnings was not material.
Most of our revenue is generated through clicks on advertisements presented on our properties or those of our partners. We
recognize revenue from clicks in the period in which the click occurs. Payments to partners who display advertisements on our
behalf are recognized as cost of revenue. Revenue from data sales and commissions is recognized in the period in which the
transaction occurs and the other revenue recognition criteria are met. Effective January 1, 2018, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We also recognize revenue from serving impressions when we complete all or a part of an order from an advertiser. The revenue is recognized in the period that the impression is served.
The below table is the proportion of revenue that is generated through advertisements on our partners sites and owned sites:

|  | For the Three Months Ended March 31,
|  | 2019 |  | 2018
Partners |  | 11,498,457 |  |  | 74.4 | % |  | 13,905,932 |  |  | 67.8 | %
O&O |  | 3,966,112 |  |  | 25.6 | % |  | 6,598,053 |  |  | 32.2 | %
Total |  | 15,464,569 |  |  | 100.0 | % |  | 20,503,985 |  |  | 100.0 | %

The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by channel:

|  | For the Three Months Ended March 31,
|  | 2019 | 2018
Mobile |  | 10,546,622 |  | 14,321,669 |
Desktop |  | 4,594,622 |  | 5,963,876 |
Other |  | 323,325 |  | 218,440 |
Total |  | 15,464,569 |  | 20,503,985 |

Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), as amended, which generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis and did not restate comparative periods. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows us to carryforward our historical lease classification, our assessment on whether a contract is or contains a lease, and our initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard. We also elected to combine lease and non-lease components and to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
13

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating and finance leases are included in Right Of Use ("ROU") assets, and lease liability obligations in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability obligations represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and account for such components as a single lease component. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we estimated our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and lease direct costs. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Please refer to Note 13 for additional information.
Note 3– Property and Equipment
The net carrying value of property and equipment was as follows as of:

Total |  | $ | 2,091,365 |  |  | $ | 1,859,853 |

On March 1, 2012 we entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank, which is now owned by Western Alliance Bank. The agreement provided us with a revolving credit line of up to $10 million which we use to help satisfy our working capital needs. On October 11, 2018, we entered into the Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement with Western Alliance Bank and superseded the Business Financing Agreement, as amended, entered into on March 1, 2012. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement may be terminated by either party upon notice to the other party. The material terms of the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement include financing eligible invoiced receivables at an advance rate of 85% and an interest rate of prime plus 1% and a sub-limit of up to $2.5 million of uninvoiced eligible receivables at an advance rate of 75% and an interest rate of prime plus 2%. The sub-limit provision expires at the end of April 2019. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement includes certain fees; a facility fee of $11,765 due at closing; an annual facility fee of 0.25% of the account balance due beginning on April 20, 2019; a monthly maintenance fee of 0.125% of the ending daily account balance; a $30,000 fee in lieu of a warrant; and $80,000 due upon termination of the agreement or repayment of our obligations under the agreement. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement is secured by all of our assets. On April 30, 2019, Western Alliance Bank agreed to extend the $2.5 million sub-limit provision of uninvoiced eligible receivables until the earlier of May 31, 2019 or three days after the closing of the Merger.
Note 6 - Notes Payable
On November 2, 2018, each of Messrs. Richard K. Howe, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and member of our board of directors, and Charles D. Morgan, G. Kent Burnett and Gordon Cameron, members of the Company’s board of directors, lent the Company $62,500, for an aggregate of $250,000, under the terms of 10% Promissory Notes. The Company used the proceeds from these notes to pay certain costs associated with the pending Merger. The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 2, 2019, subject to acceleration upon an Event of Default or Change of Control (as both terms are defined in the note) (see Note 14 - Related Party Transactions).
Note 7 – Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities
The accrued expenses and other current liabilities consist of the following as of:

Note 8 - Convertible Promissory Note
On March 1, 2019, Inuvo, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Inuvo” or the “Company”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with three accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of $1,440,000 of principal of Original Issue Discount Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Notes due September 1, 2020 (the “Notes”) to fund working capital and additional expenses resulting from the delay in closing associated with the government shut down. The initial conversion price of the Notes is $1.08 per share which would make them convertible into 1,333,333 unregistered shares of Inuvo common stock upon conversion. The Notes were issued in a private placement and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion are restricted, subject to resale under Rule 144. Inuvo entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Purchasers for the purchase and sale of the Notes in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on an exemption provided by Rule 506(b) of Regulation D and Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The proceeds to Inuvo from the offering were $1,200,000. Inuvo did not pay any commissions or finders fees in connection with the sale of the Notes and Inuvo utilized the proceeds for working capital. The conversion portion of the Notes was analyzed for derivative accounting and a liability of $333,333 was recorded for the fair value of the derivative.
On November 1, 2018, the Company and ConversionPoint Investments, LLC., an affiliate of CPT (the "Noteholder") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for up to $2 million pursuant to which the Company issued and sold a $1,000,000 principal amount 10% senior unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note ("the Subordinated Promissory Note") to the Noteholder which we are using for working capital. The Subordinated Promissory Note, which bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 1, 2021. In the event Merger Agreement is terminated, and providing that the shares issuable upon the possible conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note have been approved for listing on the NYSE American, the Noteholder may, upon 15 days written notice to the Company, elect to convert all or any portion of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest due under the Subordinated Promissory Note into shares of the Company’s common stock (see Note 15 - ConversionPoint Merger). The conversion portion of the Subordinated Promissory Note was analyzed for derivative accounting and is deemed immaterial.
Note 9 – Other Long-Term Liabilities
Other long-term liabilities consist of the following as of:

| March 31, 2019 |  | December 31, 2018
Capital leases, less current portion | $ | — |  |  | $ | 98,276 |

We also have a net deferred tax asset of approximately $32,663,706. We believe it is more likely than not that essentially none of our deferred tax assets will be realized, and we have recorded a valuation allowance for the net deferred tax assets that may not be realized as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Note 11 - Stock-Based Compensation
We maintain a stock-based compensation program intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for talented employees and directors and align stockholder and employee interests. Currently, we grant options and restricted stock units ("RSUs") from the 2010 Equity Compensation Plan (“2010 ECP”) and 2017 Equity Compensation Plan ("2017 ECP"). Option and RSUs vesting periods are generally up to three years and/or achieving certain financial targets.
Compensation Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded stock-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans of $96,871 and $377,847, respectively. Total compensation cost not yet recognized at March 31, 2019 was $810,790 to be recognized over a weighted-average recognition period of 1.5 years.
The following table summarizes the stock grants outstanding under our 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2005 LTIP"), the 2010 ECP and the 2017 ECP for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Note 12 - Earnings per Share
During the three periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, we generated a net loss from continuing operations and as a result, all of our shares are anti-dilutive.
Note 13 - Leases
The Company has entered into operating and finance leases primarily for real estate and equipment rental. These leases have terms which range from two to four years, and often include one or more options to renew or in the case of equipment rental, to purchase the equipment. These operating and finance leases are listed as separate line items on the Company's March 31, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet, and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company’s obligation to make lease payments are also listed as separate line items on the Company's March 31, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet. Based on the present value of the lease payments for the remaining lease term of the Company's existing leases, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases of approximately $1.2 million and finance leases of approximately $265,000, respectively, on January 1, 2019. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities commencing after January 1, 2019 are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As of March 31, 2019, total right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities were approximately $1.1 million and $221,000, respectively. The Company has entered into a short-term finance lease for equipment with a remaining term of twelve months or less and is included in the "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" section of the Consolidated Balance Sheet. All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $177 thousand in total lease costs, which was comprised of $118 thousand in operating lease costs for right-of-use assets and $59 thousand in lease costs related to lease liabilities.
As of March 31, 2019, the Company recorded $44,298 in amortization expense related to the finance lease.
Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments.
Information related to the Company's operating right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities were as follows:

| Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Cash paid for operating lease liabilities | $ | 99,986 |
Weighted-average remaining lease term | 2.6 years |

Note 14 - Related Party Transactions
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 the Company received $10,500 from First Orion Corp., which is partially owned by two directors and shareholders of Inuvo, for providing IT services.
On November 2, 2018, each of Messrs. Richard K. Howe, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and member of our board of directors, and Charles D. Morgan, G. Kent Burnett and Gordon Cameron, members of the Company’s board of directors, lent the Company $62,500, for an aggregate of $250,000, under the terms of 10% Promissory Notes. The Company is using the proceeds from these notes to pay certain costs associated with the pending Merger. The notes are unsecured, bear interest at 10% per annum and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 2, 2019, subject to acceleration upon an Event of Default or Change of Control (as both terms are defined in the note) (see Note 6 - Notes Payable).
Note - 15 ConversionPoint Merger
On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with CPT, ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPT (“Parent”), CPT Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“CPT Merger Sub”), and CPT Cigar Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Inuvo Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Company will merge with and into Inuvo Merger Sub with the Company as the surviving corporation in the Inuvo Merger (the “Inuvo Merger”), and CPT merging with and into CPT Merger Sub with CPT as the surviving corporation in the CPT Merger (the “CPT Merger” and collectively with the Inuvo Merger, the “Merger”). Upon consummation of the Merger, CPT and Inuvo will be wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parent. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each of the Company, CPT, Parent, CPT Merger Sub, and Inuvo Merger Sub.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger the Company’s shareholders will be entitled to receive $0.45 in cash and 0.18877 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of the Company, and CPT’s stockholders will be entitled to receive 0.9840 shares of Parent common stock for each share of common stock of CPT. Each outstanding option to acquire a share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into an option to acquire 0.2370 shares of Parent’s common stock. In addition, unvested restricted stock units will vest in full immediately prior to consummation of the Merger and will be entitled to receive the merger consideration. No fractional shares of Parent common stock will be issued in the Merger and Parent stockholders and CPT stockholders will receive cash in lieu of any fractional interests.
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from each party to the agreement, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of the CPT’s and the Company’s businesses during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Merger, (2) the Company’s obligations to facilitate its shareholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger, (3) CPT’s obligations to facilitate its stockholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Merger Agreement and the CPT Merger, (4) the recommendation by the Board of Directors of the Company in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and the Inuvo Merger by the Company’s shareholders, and (5) the Company’s non-solicitation obligations relating to alternative business combination transactions.
The completion of the Merger is subject to (1) the approval of CPT’s stockholders and the Company’s shareholders, (2) regulatory approvals, (3) the closing of financing to the Parent of $36,000,000 (the “Financing”), (4) the approval of the listing of shares of Parent’s common stock on NASDAQ, (5) the delivery of customary opinions from counsel to the CPT and the Company to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes (6) Parent entering into separation agreements with Mr. Howe, the Company Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ruiz, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and Mr. Pisaris, the Company’s General Counsel, and (7) other customary closing conditions. Immediately following the Merger, Richard K. Howe will serve as non-executive chairman of the board of directors of the Parent and an additional individual appointed by Inuvo shall serve on the seven member board of directors of the Parent.
The Merger Agreement contains customary termination rights for both the Company and CPT and further provides that (1) a termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by the Company to CPT in certain circumstances; and (2) a
19

termination payment of approximately $2.8 million will be payable by CPT to the Company in certain circumstances, including if the Parent fails to consummate the Financing by May 31, 2019.
On November 1, 2018, the Company and CPT Investments, LLC., an affiliate of CPT (the "Noteholder") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for up to $2 million pursuant to which the Company issued and sold a $1,000,000 principal amount 10% senior unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note ("the Subordinated Promissory Note") to the Noteholder which we are using for working capital.
The Subordinated Promissory Note, which bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, and the principal and accrued interest is due on November 1, 2021. The maturity date of the Subordinated Promissory Note is subject to acceleration in the event (i) the Closing (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement) occur pursuant to the Merger Agreement, in which event the maturity date is accelerated to the fifth day after the Closing Date (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement) and (ii) immediately upon an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the Subordinated Promissory Note). The Company has the right to prepay the amounts due under the Subordinated Promissory Note at any time, upon 15 days prior written notice to the Noteholder, subject to the term of the note and Noteholder consent. The Company’s obligations under the Subordinated Promissory Note are unsecured and subordinate to its obligations to Western Alliance Bank, the Company’s secured lender.
In the event Merger Agreement is terminated, and providing that the shares issuable upon the possible conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note have been approved for listing on the NYSE American, the Noteholder may, upon 15 days written notice to the Company, elect to convert all or any portion of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest due under the Subordinated Promissory Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.44 per share, or $0.35 per share if the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason other than in connection with a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The conversion prices are subject to proportional adjustment in the event of stock split or adjustments. The Subordinated Promissory Note also contains a provision limiting the Company’s ability to issue any shares of our common stock upon any voluntary conversion by the Noteholder which, when aggregated with all shares of its common stock issued pursuant to a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note, would exceed 19.99% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock immediately preceding the issuance of the note without first obtaining stockholder approval in accordance with the rules of the NYSE American.
On November 1, 2018 the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Noteholder covering the shares of its common stock which may be issued upon a conversion of the Subordinated Promissory Note.
On March 1, 2019, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 2, 2018 (the “Amendment”) to (i) due to the delays in the SEC’s ability to review and declare effective securities filings because of the government shutdown, extend the outside date for New Parent to receive funding in a financing from May 31, 2019 to July 12, 2019, and extend the outside termination date for closing of the Mergers from June 30, 2019, to August 5, 2019, (ii) permit the issuances of the above described Notes and permit us to issue up to 3,272,728 shares of common stock or securities convertible into up to 3,272,728 shares of our common stock, and waive any breach of our representations, warranties, or covenants that would be caused by the stock issuance. Our exchange ratio of 0.18877 shares of New Parent common stock for each share of our common stock for the stock portion of the merger consideration is adjusted downward to account for the dilutive effect of the stock issuance, and (iii) permit us to amend our articles of incorporation to increase the amount of its authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000.
Note 16 - Subsequent Events
Bank Amendment
On May 1, 2019, effective April 30, 2019, we entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement dated October 11, 2018, as amended with Western Alliance Bank. The Second Amendment extended the expiration date with respect to the eligible unbilled receivable sublimit of $2,500,000 to the date that is the earlier to occur of (a) May 31, 2019, or (b) three (3) days after consummation of the Merger transactions; amended the definition of “Change of Control” to state that any change of control pursuant to the Merger Transactions will be deemed to occur three days after the completion of the Merger Transactions; and imposed an amendment fee of $1,000 on Inuvo.
Stockholder Meeting
On May 8, 2019, a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) for the purposes of (i) approving and adopting the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 2, 2018 (as it may be amended from time to time)., by and between ConversionPoint Technologies Inc. (“ConversionPoint”), ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc. (“Parent”), CPT Cigar Merger Sub,
20

Inc. (“Inuvo Merger Sub”), CPT Merger Sub, Inc. (“CPT Merger Sub”), and Inuvo (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Inuvo will merge with and into Inuvo Merger Sub with Inuvo as the surviving entity, ConversionPoint will merge with and into CPT Merger Sub with ConversionPoint as the surviving entity, and each of Inuvo and ConversionPoint will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of Parent; (ii) approving, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to the named executive officers of Inuvo that is based on or otherwise relates to the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (iii) approving and adopting an amendment to Inuvo’s articles of incorporation permitting Inuvo to increase the amount of authorized shares of its common stock from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000; and (iv) approving one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of additional proxies in the event there are not sufficient votes present at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy, or at any adjournment or postponement of that Special Meeting, to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement. Stockholders approved the first three items. The fourth item was withdrawn as stockholders approved and adopted the Merger Agreement, as noted above.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Company Overview
Inuvo, Inc. is a technology company that provides data-driven platforms that can automatically identify and message online audiences for any product or service across devices, channels and formats, including video, mobile, connected TV, display, social and native. These capabilities allow Inuvo’s clients to engage with their customers and prospects in a manner that drives engagement from the first contact with the consumer. Inuvo facilitates over a billion marketing messages to consumers every single month and counts among its clients numerous world-renowned names in industries that have included retail, automotive, insurance, health care, technology, telecommunications and finance. Inuvo counts among its many contractual relationships, three clients who collectively manage over 50% of all US digital advertising budgets.
Inuvo’s solution incorporates a proprietary form of artificial intelligence, or AI, branded the IntentKey. This sophisticated machine learning technology uses interactions with Internet content as a source of information from which to predict consumer intent. The AI includes a continually updated database of over 500 million machine profiles which Inuvo utilizes to deliver highly aligned online audiences to its clients. Inuvo earns revenue when consumers view or click on its client’s messages. Inuvo’s business scales through account management activity with existing clients and by adding new clients through sales activity.
As part of Inuvo’s technology strategy, it owns a collection of websites like alot.com and earnspendlive.com, where Inuvo creates content in health, finance, travel, careers, auto, education and living categories. These sites provide the means to test Inuvo’s technologies, while also delivering high quality consumers to clients through the interaction with proprietary content in the form of images, videos, slideshows and articles.
There are many barriers to entry to Inuvo’s business that would require proficiency in large scale data center management, software development, data products, analytics, artificial intelligence, integration to the internet of things, or IOT, the relationships required to execute within the IOT and the ability to process tens of billions of transactions daily. Our intellectual property is protected by 15 issued and eight pending patents.
Industry Trends
The U.S. digital advertising is expected to grow 19% in 2019 to $129 billion from $108 billion in 2018, with two companies, Facebook and Google capturing nearly 60% of the 2019 digital ad investment, according to eMarketer. In addition, mobile advertising spend is expected to continue to grow from $71 billion in 2018 to $87 billion in 2019, according to eMarketer.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements for 2018 appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2019. The estimates and assumptions that management makes affect the
21

reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management’s regular evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to allowances for sale chargebacks, allowances for doubtful accounts, goodwill and purchased intangible asset valuations, lives of intangible assets, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, contingent liabilities, including the Arkansas grant contingency, and stock compensation. Though actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, in the past such differences have been immaterial. Because our procedures require review of estimates and assumptions throughout the fiscal year, and differences between the estimates and assumptions and the actual results have been minor and immaterial, we have no reason not to believe the accuracy of our estimates and assumptions will continue into future quarters.
Results of Operations

| For the Three Months Ended March 31, |
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | Change |  | % Change |
Net Revenue | $ | 15,464,569 |  |  | $ | 20,503,985 |  |  | $ | (5,039,416 | ) |  | (24.6 | %) |
Cost of Revenue | 6,680,628 |  |  | 8,778,594 |  |  | (2,097,966 | ) |  | (23.9 | %) |
Gross Profit | $ | 8,783,941 |  |  | $ | 11,725,391 |  |  | (2,941,450 | ) |  | (25.1 | %) |

Net Revenue
Net revenue for the first quarter 2019 was $15.5 million, 24.6% lower than the same quarter of 2018. We experienced lower revenue in part due to an announced strategy to reduce focus on the non-strategic publisher side technologies and in part due to reduced monetization from advertising inventory sold to our largest Demand partners. Due to seasonality, revenue is typically lower in the first quarter of the year compared to the sequentially prior quarter. The 2019 revenue associated with these Demand partners was in line with this seasonal pattern. The prior year, first quarter 2018, revenue associated with these Demand partners, was uncharacteristically high, not following the seasonal pattern the Company typically experiences. We have not seen an appreciable change in monetization for our inventory and we do not know whether monetization will return to former levels.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue is primarily generated by payments to website publishers and app developers that host advertisements we serve and to ad exchanges that provide access to supply inventory where we serve advertisements. The decrease in the cost of revenue in the first quarter 2019 compared to the same time period in 2018 is due primarily to lower revenue and to the loss of revenue associated with the discontinuation of non-strategic revenue including a proprietary marketing platform discussed in the Net Revenue section.
Operating Expenses

| For the Three Months Ended March 31, |
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | Change |  | % Change |
Marketing costs | $ | 6,544,009 |  |  | $ | 8,294,294 |  |  | $ | (1,750,285 | ) |  | (21.1 | %) |
Compensation | 1,808,556 |  |  | 2,619,515 |  |  | (810,959 | ) |  | (31.0 | %) |
Selling, general and administrative | 2,377,061 |  |  | 2,126,362 |  |  | 250,699 |  |  | 11.8 | % |
Operating expenses | $ | 10,729,626 |  |  | $ | 13,040,171 |  |  | $ | (2,310,545 | ) |  | (17.7 | %) |

Overall, our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 declined 17.7% compared to the first quarter 2018.
Marketing costs include those expenses required to attract an audience to our owned and operated web properties. Marketing costs decreased 21.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease in marketing costs was partially due to adjusting traffic acquisition campaigns as a result of lower monetization experienced described in the Net Revenue section.
22

Compensation expense decreased 31.0% in the three months ended March 31, 2019 due primarily to lower headcount. Our total employment, both full-time and part-time, was 66 at March 31, 2019 compared to 91 at the same time last year.
Selling, general and administrative costs for the three-month ended March 31, 2019 were $2.4 million, an increase of 11.8% over the same time period in 2018. The increase is due to higher professional fees that included $501 thousand in Merger related costs.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, which represents interest expense on financed receivables, finance leases, notes payable and derivative liability was higher in March 31, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 due to the derivative liability of $333,333 and to higher interest rates on our financed receivables this year compared to last year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On October 11, 2018, we entered into the Amended and Restated Business Financing Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Financing Agreement”) with Western Alliance Bank. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement, which is secured by all of our assets, superseded in its entirety the prior Business Financing Agreement, as amended, that we entered into on March 1, 2012 with Bridge Bank, N.A. which is now owned by Western Alliance Bank. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement does not have a term and either party may terminate upon notice to the other party.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, our revenues declined 24.5% from the same period in the prior year. The lower revenue in the three-month period of 2019 is principally responsible for or $2.5 million net loss. Of the net loss, approximately $1.3 million were the non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization, derivative liability and stock-based compensation. Further, we had roughly $501 thousand of merger related costs within the three-month period ending March 31, 2019. Since our credit facility is dependent upon receivables, and we do not know when, if ever, that our revenues will return to historic levels or if we will be able to replace those lost revenues with revenues from other sources, the combination of lower credit availability and recent negative cash flows generated from operating activities introduces potential risk to operation without interruption. As described earlier in this report, on November 2, 2018, we entered into the Merger Agreement. At the closing the Merger, which is subject to a number of conditions precedent, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPT. In addition, on November 1, 2018, we borrowed $1 million from an affiliate of CPT which we are using for working capital, and on November 2, 2018, four directors of the Company lent us $62,500 each, for an aggregate of $250,000, to cover certain costs associated with the Merger. In March 2019, we sold an aggregate of $1,440,000 Original Issue Discount Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Notes due September 1, 2020 in a private placement and received $1,200,000 in proceeds which we are using for working capital. There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to generate revenues, report profitable operations or close the Merger in which case we would need to find additional sources of credit and make substantial reductions to operating expense. We may not have sufficient cash and credit to operate until the Merger closes. We may have to find additional sources of credit and/or make substantial reductions in our operating expense. A substantial reduction of operating expense may cause disruption to the business and the generation of future revenue. Given the above conditions, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Cash Flows - Operating
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,047,835 during the three months ended March 31, 2019. We reported a net loss of $2,462,393, which included non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization expense of $823,765, a derivative liability of $333,333 and stock-based compensation expense of $96,871. The change in operating assets and liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was a provision of cash of $139,407 primarily due to an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $592,293 and a decrease in the accounts receivable balance by $557,332, partially offset by a decrease in the accounts payable balance by $990,764. The seasonal nature of our business is such that the first half year revenue is typically less than the second half year revenue and therefore, the related accounts receivable balance is lower. Our terms are such that we generally collect receivables prior to paying trade payables. Media sales typically have slower payment terms than the terms of related payables.
During the comparable period in 2018, cash provided by operating activities was $629,096 from a net loss of $1,408,024, which included several non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization of $791,644 and stock-based compensation of $377,847.
23

Cash Flows - Investing
Net cash used in investing activities was $310,221 and $514,065 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, and primarily consisted of capitalized internal development costs.
Cash Flows - Financing
Net cash provided financing activities was $1,377,497 during 2019 primarily from proceeds of the convertible notes payable.
In 2018, net cash used in financing activities was $53,839.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2019, 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 are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable to a smaller reporting company.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and to reasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the control. The design of any systems of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of March 31, 2019, the end of the period covered by this report, our management concluded their evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. As of the evaluation date, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
24

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On December 19, 2018 and December 20, 2018, respectively, Peter D’Arcy and Morris Akerman, both of whom claim to be stockholders of Inuvo, filed separate putative class action lawsuits, captioned D’Arcy v. Inuvo, Inc. et al., No. 1:18-cv-02023- UNA, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware; and Akerman v. Inuvo, Inc. et al., No. 2:18-cv-02407, in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. The two lawsuits each named Inuvo and the members of Inuvo’s board of directors as defendants. The D’Arcy action also names ConversionPoint and various entities created to effect the merger as defendants. The complaints filed in the lawsuits assert claims under Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act challenging the adequacy of the disclosures relating to the merger transactions made in a joint consent solicitation statement/prospectus.
On December 21, 2018, Domenic Spagnolo, another purported stockholder of Inuvo, filed a substantially similar lawsuit, captioned Spagnolo v. Inuvo, Inc. et al., No. 1:18-cv-12099, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This lawsuit also challenges the adequacy of disclosure under the same sections of the Exchange Act against Inuvo and its directors.
Each of the foregoing lawsuits seeks, among other relief, an injunction preventing the parties from consummating the merger transactions, damages in the event the merger transactions are consummated, and an award of attorneys’ fees. Inuvo and ConversionPoint believe the claims asserted in the lawsuits are without merit. We further believe the allegations in the lawsuits have been mooted by the filing of our amended S-4 Registration Statement on March 15, 2019. Inuvo intends to vigorously contest any continued litigation, and any fee petitions brought by Plaintiffs’ counsels. On February 4, 2019, Inuvo filed a motion to dismiss, or in the alternative to stay, the Akerman and Spagnolo actions pending the resolution of the first-filed D’Arcy case. Then, on March 4, 2019, Inuvo filed a second motion to dismiss the Spagnolo action based on a failure to state a claim under the law. In the Spagnolo action, the court issued an order giving Plaintiff Spagnolo an opportunity to amend his complaint in response to the second motion to dismiss, or alternatively, serve his opposition to the motion to dismiss by March 25, 2019. Additionally, Plaintiff Spagnolo filed for a preliminary injunction, seeking to enjoin a shareholder vote on the merger. Per court order, Inuvo responded to the preliminary injunction on March 1, 2019. Plaintiff Spagnolo replied on March 8, 2019. Following the filing of our amended S-4 Registration Statement on March 15, 2019, Plaintiff Spagnolo withdrew his motion for preliminary injunction. The next day, the court dismissed the Spagnolo action as moot and set a deadline of April 11, 2019, for Plaintiff Spagnolo to make an application for attorneys’ fees and expenses. On March 25, 2019, Plaintiff Spagnolo filed a motion for an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses. Inuvo’s opposition was filed on April 23, 2019. Plaintiff Spagnolo’s reply was filed May 9, 2019.
In the Akerman action, following the filing of our amended S-4 Registration Statement on March 15, 2019, Plaintiff Akerman filed a stipulation of dismissal, dismissing the entire action, except with respect to a fee and expense request. No deadline has been set for Plaintiff Akerman to file a fee and expense request.
On January 4, 2019 and January 8, 2019, respectively, two more purported stockholders of Inuvo, Adam Franchi and Les Thomas, commenced substantially similar putative class action lawsuits under Nevada state law, captioned Franchi v. Inuvo, Inc. et al., No. A-19-787021-C and Thomas v. Inuvo, Inc. et al., No. T19-57, in the District Court of the State of Nevada in the County of Clark. These complaints name Inuvo and the members of Inuvo’s board of directors as defendants. The Franchi action also names ConversionPoint and various entities created to effect the merger as defendants. Both complaints assert breach of fiduciary duties claims arising from the adequacy of the disclosures relating to the merger transactions made in a joint consent solicitation statement/ prospectus, and both complaints seek an injunction preventing the parties from consummating the merger transactions, damages in the event the merger transactions are consummated and an award of attorneys’ fees.
Inuvo and ConversionPoint believe the claims asserted in the Franchi and Thomas lawsuits are similarly without merit. We believe the allegations in the lawsuits have been mooted by the filing of our amended S-4 Registration Statement on March 15, 2019. ConversionPoint and Inuvo intend to vigorously contest any continued litigation, and any fee petitions brought by Plaintiffs’ counsel. On January 25, 2018, the Thomas plaintiff filed a preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin the merger. A hearing on the preliminary injunction was held on March 18, 2019. The Franchi and Thomas complaints
25

seek, among other relief, an injunction preventing the parties from consummating the merger transactions, damages in the event the merger transactions are consummated and an award of attorneys’ fees. Inuvo and ConversionPoint believe the claims asserted in the lawsuits are without merit. On February 5 and 14, 2019, Inuvo filed motions to dismiss, or in the alternative to stay, the Franchi and Thomas actions, respectively, pending the resolution of the first-filed D’Arcy action. A hearing on the Franchi motion is yet to be scheduled. Following the filing of our amended S-4 Registration Statement on March 15, 2019, Plaintiff Thomas filed a stipulation of dismissal, dismissing the action, but requesting the court maintain jurisdiction to determine Plaintiff’s mootness fee claim. On April 12, 2019, counsel for Plaintiff Thomas filed a motion for attorneys’ fees and expenses. Inuvo filed its brief in opposition on May 3, 2019. Plaintiff Thomas’s reply is due no later than May 17, 2019. The Thomas court has set the matter for hearing without argument on May 24, 2019. On April 11, 2019, Plaintiff Franchi filed a notice of voluntary dismissal.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
We desire to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Accordingly, we incorporate by reference the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2019 subject to the new or modified risk factors appearing below that should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in such Form 10-K.
The Merger is subject to closing conditions that, if not satisfied or waived in a timely manner or at all, will result in the Merger not being completed or delayed. A failure to complete or delay in completing the Merger may have an adverse effect on our businesses due to uncertainty or operating restrictions while the Merger is pending or cause the market price of our common stock to decline. The Merger will not be completed unless all of the conditions to the Merger have been satisfied or, if permissible, waived. We cannot predict what the effect on the market price of our common stock would be if the Merger is not completed, but depending on market conditions at the time, it could result in a decline in market price. A substantial delay in completing the Merger due to the need to satisfy the conditions to closing the Merger, or the imposition of any unfavorable terms, conditions, or restrictions in obtaining a waiver from such conditions or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the anticipated benefits of, or increase the costs associated with the Merger. In addition, we are subject to certain restrictions on the operation of our business while the Merger is pending, which could impair our ability to operate our businesses and prevent us from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Merger. Any of these situations could also result in a decline in the market price of our common stock. Also, the uncertainty regarding whether the Merger will be completed (including uncertainty regarding whether the conditions to closing will be met) could impact our relationships with our employees, suppliers and partners. These restrictions and uncertainties could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations and could result in a decline in the market price of our common stock or an increase in the volatility of the market prices.
We rely on two customers for a significant portion of our revenues. We are reliant upon Yahoo! and Google for most of our revenue. During the first quarter of 2019, Yahoo! accounted for 73.6% and Google accounted for 11.7% of our revenues, respectively, and during the same period in 2018, 70.5% and 9.5%, respectively. The amount of revenue we receive from these customers is dependent on a number of factors outside of our control, including the amount they charge for advertisements, the depth of advertisements available from them, and their ability to display relevant ads in response to end-user queries.
We would likely experience a significant decline in revenue and our business operations could be significantly harmed if these customers do not approve our new websites and applications, or if we violate their guidelines or they change their guidelines. In addition, if any of these preceding circumstances were to occur, we may not be able to find a suitable alternate paid search results provider or otherwise replace the lost revenues. The loss of any of these customers or a material change in the revenue or gross profit they generate would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition in future periods.
Failure to comply with the covenants and restrictions in our credit facility could impact our ability to access capital as needed. We have a credit facility with Western Alliance Bank, the parent company of Bridge Bank, N.A. our original lender, expired in October 2018. Effective October 11, 2018, we entered into a new agreement with Western Alliance Bank which superseded the expiring facility. The new agreement may be terminated by either party at any time and has a sub-limit provision that expired on April 30, 2019. On April 30, 2019, Western Alliance Bank agreed to extend the $2.5 million sub-limit provision of uninvoiced eligible receivables until May 31, 2019. While we believe we will be able to renew with substantially similar terms and conditions, there are no assurances that we will be able to renew. In that event, our liquidity in future periods would be materially adversely impacted. In addition, the credit facility contains a number of covenants that requires us to, among other things:
26

• | pay fees to the lender associated with the credit facility;

• | maintain our corporate existence in good standing;

• | grant the lender a security interest in our assets;

• | provide financial information to the lender; and

• | refrain from any transfer of any of our business or property, subject to customary exceptions.

In the event of a breach of our covenants we cannot provide any assurance that our lender would provide a waiver or reset our covenants. A breach in our covenants could result in a default under the credit facility, and in such event Western Alliance Bank could elect to declare all borrowings outstanding, if any, to be due and payable. If this occurs and we have outstanding obligations and are not able to repay, Western Alliance Bank could require us to apply all of our available cash to repay the debt amounts and could then proceed against the underlying collateral. Should this occur, we cannot assure you that our assets would be sufficient to repay our debt in full, we would be able to borrow sufficient funds to refinance the debt, or that we would be able to obtain a waiver to cure any such default. In such an event, our ability to conduct our business as it is currently conducted would be in jeopardy.
