CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “will,” “should,” “intend,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. This report includes, among others, statements regarding our risks associated with:
•our history of losses, declining revenues and working capital deficit;
•our ability to continue as a going concern;
•the unknown impact of the coronavirus on our company;
•our reliance on revenues from a limited number of customers;
•seasonality of our business which impacts our financial results and cash availability;
•dependence on our supply partners;
•our ability to acquire traffic in a profitable manner;
•failure to keep pace with technology changes;
•impact of possible interruption in our network infrastructure;
•dependence on our key personnel;
•regulatory and legal uncertainties;
•failure to comply with privacy and data security laws and regulations;
•third party infringement claims;
•publishers who could fabricate fraudulent clicks;
•our ability to continue to meet the NYSE American continued listing standards;
•the impact of quarterly results on our common stock price; and
•dilution to our stockholders upon the exercise of outstanding common stock options and restricted stock unit grants and the conversion of convertible notes.

Inuvo, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization and Business
Company Overview
Inuvo is a technology company that develops and sells information technology solutions for marketing. These platforms predictively 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 the delivery of hundreds of millions of 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 has contractual relationships with three clients who collectively manage over 50% of all U.S. digital media 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 including 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 associated with Inuvo’s business model, including a proficiency in large scale information processing, predictive software development, marketing data products, analytics, artificial intelligence, integration to the internet of things (IOT), and the relationships required to execute within the IOT. Inuvo’s intellectual property is protected by 17 issued and eight pending patents.
Mergers Termination
On June 20, 2019, Inuvo entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger Termination Agreement (the “Merger Termination Agreement”) with ConversionPoint Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CPT”), ConversionPoint Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), CPT Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (“CPT Merger Sub”), and CPT Cigar Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Inuvo Merger Sub”), which, among other things, (1) terminated the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 2, 2018, by and among Inuvo, CPT, Parent, CPT Merger Sub, and Inuvo Merger Sub, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Inuvo would have merged with and into Inuvo Merger Sub and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and CPT would have merged with and into CPT Merger Sub and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Mergers”), and (2) terminated each of the Support Agreements that were entered into by certain officers and directors of Inuvo and the parties to the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement was terminated as a result of Parent’s inability to fulfill the closing condition of the Mergers that Parent raise $36,000,000 in gross proceeds from an equity, debt, or equity-linked offering of its securities which no longer obligated Inuvo to consummate the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Termination Agreement, CPT Investments, LLC, a California limited liability company and an affiliate of CPT (“CPT Investments”), and Inuvo entered into a certain Inuvo Note Termination Agreement (the “Note Termination Agreement”) and agreed to (1) terminate and cancel the 10% Senior Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note, dated November 1, 2018, executed by Inuvo in favor of CPT Investments (the “CPTI Note”), which as of June 20, 2019, had $1,063,288 in accrued principal and interest outstanding (the “Outstanding Indebtedness”) by July 20, 2019, (2) effective immediately, terminate all conversion rights under the CPTI Note to convert amounts outstanding into shares of Inuvo’s common stock, (3) terminate the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated November 1, 2018, by and between Inuvo and CPTI (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), and (4) terminate the Registration Rights Agreement, dated November 1, 2018, by and between Inuvo and CPTI.
9

The Merger Termination Agreement provided that the termination fee of $2,800,000 to be paid to Inuvo (the “Termination Fee”) for failure to fulfill the Financing Condition would be satisfied as follows:
(1) $1,063,288 of the Termination Fee (the “Indebtedness Satisfaction Amount”) was satisfied in consideration of the termination and cancellation of the Outstanding Indebtedness pursuant to the CPTI Note Termination Agreement that was approved by CPT’s senior lenders Montage Capital II, L.P. and Partners for Growth IV, L.P. (the “Senior Lenders”) of CPT’s issuance of a replacement note to CPT Investments that was entered into in July 2019;
(2) $1,611,712 of the Termination Fee (the “ReTargeter Satisfaction Amount”) was satisfied by CPT transferring all of the assets related to CPT’s programmatic and RTB advertising solutions business conducted through managed services and a proprietary SaaS solution (the “ReTargeter Business”), free and clear of all liabilities, encumbrances, or liens, to Inuvo (the “ReTargeter Asset Transfer”). The enterprise valuation of the ReTargeter Business was determined to be $2.57 million; and
(3) CPT paid $125,000 to Inuvo on September 15, 2019 to be contributed to the settlement of ongoing litigation with respect to the Mergers (the “Litigation Fee”).
On September 30, 2019, Inuvo paid its obligation of $250,000 under a confidential settlement agreement that it entered into on June 20, 2019 resolving certain outstanding litigation related to the Mergers. Under the Merger Termination Agreement, CPT and Inuvo agreed to mutually release all claims that each party had against the other, as well as certain affiliated entities of each. Inuvo, however, will be able to pursue any claims against CPT and its affiliates for breaches of the Merger Termination Agreement.
Liquidity
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our revenues declined 3.4% from the same period in the prior year. The lower revenue and higher operating costs in the three-month period of 2020 is principally responsible for our $2.8 million net loss. Of the loss, approximately $1.1 million were the non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. 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 negative cash flows generated from operating activities introduces potential risk to operation without interruption. Our principal sources of liquidity are our borrowings under our credit facility which is described in Note 5, the sale of our common stock and borrowings from non-bank financial institutions.
On March 20, 2020, we closed a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) dated February 28, 2020 by and between our company and our subsidiaries and Hitachi Capital America Corp. (“Hitachi”) replacing the previous credit facility with Western Alliance Bank. Under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement Hitachi has provided us with a $5,000,000 line of credit commitment. We are permitted to borrow (i) 90% of the aggregate Eligible Accounts Receivable, plus (i) the lesser of 75% of the aggregate Unbilled Accounts Receivable (as those terms are defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) or 50% of the amount available to borrow under (i), up to the maximum credit commitment. On March 12, 2020 we drew $5,000,000 under this agreement, using $2,959,573 of these proceeds to satisfy our obligations to Western Alliance Bank under our credit agreement with it and the balance is being used for working capital. Following the satisfaction of our obligations to Western Alliance Bank, all agreements with that entity have been terminated.
On March 20, 2020, we sold an aggregate of 3,931,428 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.175 per share to the five members of our Board of Directors in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We received proceeds of $688,000 in this offering.
On March 27, 2020, we closed on the first tranche of a registered direct offering (the "Registered Direct Offering") in which we sold 3,115,001 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.175 per share for gross proceeds of $545,125.
On April 2, 2020, we closed on a second tranch of the Registered Direct Offering in which we sold 1,400,285 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.175 per share for gross proceeds of $245,050.
On April 10, 2020, we obtained an unsecured $1.1 million loan through Relyance Bank N.A. under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”) pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the United States Small Business Administration. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the we will use proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs.
10

We have pooled our resources behind a plan to grow our AI technology, the IntentKey, where we have a technology advantage and higher margins. If we are successful in implementing our plan, we expect to return to a positive cash flow from operations by the second half of 2020. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to achieve this objective.
Though we believe current operating cash flows and the credit facility will be sufficient to sustain operations into the third quarter of 2020, if our plan to grow the IntentKey business is unsuccessful, we may need to fund operations through private or public sales of securities, debt financings or partnering/licensing transactions. There is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining funding to continue operations in which case we would need to find additional sources of credit and make substantial reductions to 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 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 customers, Yahoo! and Google as noted below:

| For the Three Months Ended March 31, |  |  |  |
| 2020 | 2019 |  |  |
Yahoo! | 51.4% | 73.6 | % |  |  |
Google | 18.4% | 11.7 | % |  |  |
Total | 69.8% | 85.3 | % |  |  |

As of March 31, 2020, Yahoo! and Google accounted for 55.0% of our gross accounts receivable balance. As of December 31, 2019, the same two customers accounted for 60.2% of our gross accounts receivable balance.
We still source the majority of our 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. As our IntentKey business continues to grow and become a larger proportion of our overall revenue, the percentage of Yahoo! and Google revenue to the total revenue is expected to decrease.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements presented are for Inuvo 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, 2019, 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, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on May 12, 2020.
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, goodwill and purchased intangible asset valuations, valuation of long-lived assets and derivative liability. 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
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. 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 ValidClick and IntentKey platforms:

Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 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 allowed 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 income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, (FASB) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with a forward-looking expected credit loss model which will result in earlier recognition of credit losses. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date certain small public companies and other private companies. As amended, the effective date of ASC Topic 326 was delayed until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition, as well as private companies and not-for-profit entities.

Total |  | $ | 1,503,147 |  |  | $ | 3,381,364 |

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 used to help satisfy our working capital needs. On October 11, 2018, we entered into the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement with Western Alliance Bank which superseded the Business Financing Agreement, as amended. The material terms of the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement included 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 expired at the end of April 2019. The Amended and Restated Financing Agreement included 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 was secured by all of our assets. On April 30, 2019, under the terms of the Second Amendment, 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 Mergers, among other terms.
On June 6, 2019, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Financing. The Third Amendment provided that with respect to the eligible unbilled receivable sublimit of $2,500,000, which expired May 31, 2019 under the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement, that: (i) lender had no obligation to finance unbilled receivables but may do so in its discretion; and (ii) lender may terminate financing of unbilled receivables upon written notice. The Third Amendment also imposed an amendment fee of $2,000.
On March 12, 2020, we closed on the Loan and Security Agreement dated February 28, 2020 with Hitachi. Under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, Hitachi has provided us with a $5,000,000 line of credit commitment. We are permitted to borrow (i) 90% of the aggregate Eligible Accounts Receivable, plus (i) the lesser of 75% of the aggregate Unbilled Accounts Receivable or 50% of the amount available to borrow under (i), up to the maximum credit commitment. On March 12, 2020 we drew $5,000,000 under this agreement, using $2,959,573 of these proceeds to satisfy our obligations to Western Alliance Bank under our credit agreement with it and the balance is being used for working capital. Following the satisfaction of our obligations to Western Alliance Bank, all agreements with that entity have been terminated. We pay Hitachi a monthly interest at the rate of 2% in excess of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, with a minimum rate of 6.75% per annum, on outstanding amounts. The principal and all accrued but unpaid interest are due on demand.
We agreed to pay Hitachi a commitment fee of $50,000, with one half due upon the execution of the agreement and the balance due six months thereafter. Thereafter, we are obligated to pay Hitachi a commitment fee of $15,000 annually. We are also obligated to pay Hitachi a quarterly service fee of 0.30% on the monthly unused amount of the maximum credit line. In addition to a $2,000 document fee we have paid to Hitachi, if we should repay the amounts due under the Loan and Security Agreement before March 1, 2022, we are obligated to pay Hitachi an exit fee of $50,000.

Note 7 - Convertible Promissory Notes
On March 1, 2019, Inuvo entered into a 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 “Calvary Notes”) to fund working capital and additional expenses resulting from the delay in closing of the Mergers associated with the government shut down. The initial conversion price of the Calvary Notes was $1.08 per share which would make them convertible into 1,333,333 unregistered shares of Inuvo’s common stock upon conversion. The Calvary Notes were issued in a private placement and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion are restricted, subject to resale under Rule 144. 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 Calvary Notes and Inuvo utilized the proceeds for working capital. The Calvary Notes are reported net of unamortized original issue discounts and initial value attributed to the bifurcated embedded conversion feature. At March 31, 2020, the remaining principal amount outstanding is $315,000, with a carrying amount net of discounts of $271,108.
Consideration of Down Round price adjustment
The Notes contain certain triggers that create adjustments to the conversion ratio, which provide down round protection to the holders. Because the conversion feature has been bifurcated as an embedded derivative and is marked to fair value at each reporting period, the actual occurrence of a trigger and the resulting adjustment to the conversion rate does not require any additional accounting treatment at the time of the price adjustment. Rather, the next fair value computation reflects the new terms of the conversion feature.
On July 15, 2019, we closed on an underwritten public offering of 13,750,000 shares at an offering price of $0.30 per share. As a result, this triggered a corresponding adjustment to the conversion ratio in the Notes to $0.30. The fair value of the embedded derivative at September 30, 2019, reflected these new terms.
Modifications/Extinguishment
On November 11, 2019 we entered into Note Modification and Release Agreements with the holders of $1,080,000 principal amount of the Calvary Notes. Under the terms of the Note Modification and Release Agreement, the parties agreed that in consideration of such noteholder’s agreement to convert a minimum of 50% of the outstanding amount of the note (the “First Conversion Amount”) that the conversion price for the First Conversion Amount would be $0.265 per share and that the conversion price for any remaining amount due under the note would be $0.30 per share, subject to future adjustments under the terms of the note including dilutive issuances at a price below $0.30 per share, subject to a floor of $0.23 per share. The agreement contains mutual general releases. These holders converted an aggregate of $765,000 due under the Calvary Notes into 2,886,792 shares of our common stock. Immediately prior to the conversion, the carrying value of the derivative was marked-to-market. Upon converting, the issued shares were recorded at their fair value of $0.29 per share. This resulted in a loss on extinguishment. Both the loss due to the marking to market and the loss on extinguishment totaling approximately $193,000 were recorded to other income, net.
In January 2020, a noteholder of the Original Issue Discount Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Notes due September 1, 2020 converted $360,000 principal amount due under the Note into 1,200,000 shares of our common stock. The carrying value of the bifurcated derivative was marked-to-market immediately prior to the conversion. Upon conversion, the issued shares were recorded at their fair value. Both the loss due to the marked-to-market and loss on extinguishment of approximately $69,000 were recorded to other income, net. See Note 8 for discussion.

Note 8 - Derivative Liability
The derivative liability reported in the financial statements represents the embedded conversion feature in the convertible promissory notes described in Note 7, which has been bifurcated for accounting purposes. The derivative is marked-to-market each reporting period at fair value under ASC 820 using significant observable and unobservable inputs, with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of operations. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3—Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
At March 31, 2020, we recorded a derivative liability of $149,400 related to the bifurcated embedded conversion feature of the Calvary Notes discussed in Note 7 - Convertible Promissory Note. In accordance with the guidance above, the fair value of the derivative liability is considered "Level 3."
Note 9 – Lease Liabilities and Other Long-Term Liabilities
The lease liabilities and other long-term liabilities consist of the following as of:

| March 31, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
Deferred revenue | $ | 500,000 |  |  | $ | — |
Operating lease liability | 345,596 |  |  | 394,889 |

Deferred rent | 20,846 |  |  | 57,162 |
Total | $ | 1,009,428 |  |  | $ | 452,051 |

Note 10 - Commitments
In March 2020, we entered into an agreement to allow a third party to license and use ValidClick technology. The agreement required a nonrefundable, fully earned fee of $500,000 in March with subsequent fees as earned in later quarters. The $500,000 fee was recognized as deferred revenue in March 2020. We are committed to paying a monthly development royalty and marketing services fee when certain adjusted gross profit targets are achieved.
Note 11 – Income Taxes
We have a deferred tax liability of $2,019,200 as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, related to intangible assets acquired in March 2012, February 2017 and June 2019.
We also have a net deferred tax asset $33,987,850. 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Note 12 - 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 the 2017 ECP. Option and RSUs vesting periods are generally up to three years and/or achieving certain financial targets.
On August 14, 2019, the Inuvo Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee approved modifications to the outstanding RSU grants under the 2010 and 2017 ECP plans. The modifications include deeming the performance criteria for the performance based RSU grants with a measurement period based on June 30, 2019 as met and vested. In addition, any remaining RSU grants outstanding were modified to vest in three equal parts on August 19, 2019, January 1, 2020 and July 1, 2020 as long as the grantee is employed by Inuvo on the vesting date.
On August 21, 2019 our board of directors adopted, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to our 2017 ECP to increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance upon grants made under the plan by an additional 6,800,000 shares of our common stock. The stockholders approved the amendment to our 2017 ECP at the annual stockholders meeting on October 4, 2019.
On January 1, 2020, in accordance with the plan provisions, the number of shares available for issuance under the 2017 and 2010 ECP plans were increased by 150,000 and 250,000 shares, respectively.
Compensation Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recorded stock-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans of $208,897 and $96,871, respectively. Total compensation cost not yet recognized at March 31, 2020 was $424,464 to be recognized over a weighted-average recognition period of 1.0 year.

Note 13 - Earnings per Share
During the three month period ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we generated a net loss from continuing operations and as a result, all of our shares are anti-dilutive.
Note 14 - 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, 2020 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, 2020, 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, 2020 and 2019, total operating and financed right-of-use assets were $646,727 and $476,209, and $756,115 and $88,178, 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.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company recorded $105,678 in amortization expense related to finance leases.
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 lease liabilities are as follows:

| For the Three Months Ended March 31,
Cash paid for operating lease liabilities | $ | 115,751 |

Note 15 - Related Party Transactions
On March 20, 2020, we sold an aggregate of 3,931,428 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.175 per share to the five members of our Board of Directors in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We received proceeds of $688,000 in this offering. The purchase price of the shares of our common stock sold in the offering exceeded the closing market price of our common stock on March 19, 2020, the trading day immediately preceding the day the binding Insider Subscription Agreements were executed by the purchasers. The purchasers were all accredited investors. We did not pay any commissions or finder’s fees, and we are using the proceeds for general working capital.
In June 2019, the Company entered into a agreement with First Orion Corp., which is partially owned by two directors and shareholders of Inuvo, to provide office space. The lease is for eight-months commencing on July 1, 2019 and cost $80,000 which was prepaid in June 2019.
Note 16 - Subsequent Events
First identified in late 2019 and known now as Covid-19, the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals and businesses worldwide. In response, many countries have implemented measures to combat the outbreak which has had an unprecedented economic consequence. The Company had not experienced an impact from Covid-19 through the end of fiscal year 2019 and had only minor impact from Covid-19 in the first quarter of 2020. In April of 2020, the Company experienced a significant reduction in advertiser marketing budgets across both the ValidClick and IntentKey platforms as a direct consequence of Covid-19. The Company is unable at this time to predict with any certainty how the second quarter will materialize and as a result is taking a just-in-time approach to business operations, focusing resources on areas with immediate revenue potential and reducing expenses where necessary.
On April 2, 2020, the Company closed on a second tranche of the Registered Direct Offering in which we sold 1,400,285 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.175 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $245,050.
On April 10, 2020, the Company obtained an unsecured $1.1 million loan through Relyance Bank N.A. under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”) pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the United States Small Business Administration. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the Company will use proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs.
Effective April 20, 2020, the Company and the holder of the remaining Calvary Notes due September 1, 2020 in the principal amount of $315,000 (the “Promissory Note”) as modified under that certain Note Modification and Release Agreement effective November 11, 2019 (the “Modification”) (the Promissory Note and Modification collectively referred to herein as, the “Note”), agreed to amend the Note to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020 and reduce the conversion price to $0.175 per share. On April 21,2020, the Noteholder converted $200,000 principal amount due under the Note into 1,142,857 shares of
20

our common stock. On May 5, 2020, the Noteholder converted the final $115,000 principal amount due under the Note into 657,143 shares of our common stock, thereby satisfying the Note in full.
On April 29, 2020, our Board of Directors implemented a temporary compensation change for senior officers and employees. Effective May 1, 2020, certain employees with salaries in excess of $100,000 per year will be required, on a temporary basis, to forego a specified percentage of their salary ranging from 50% to 7% (the “Reduction Percentage”). To incentivize these employees, each will be granted restricted stock unit awards (each, an “Award”) pursuant to the Company’s 2017 ECP. Management anticipates that these actions will reduce on-going expenses and assist the Company in achieving its short-term goals. The participants include the Company’s Chairman and CEO, Richard Howe, Chief Financial Officer, Wallace Ruiz, and Chief Operating Officer, Trey Barrett (collectively the “Named Executive Officers”). The temporary salaries for the Named Executive Officers are as follows:

Name and Principal Position | Temporary Salary
Richard K. Howe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer | $212,500
Wallace Ruiz, Chief Financial Officer | $200,750
Don (Trey) Barrett III | $200,000

The Awards to be issued to the effected employees will be issued at the end of each semi-monthly pay period commencing May 15, 2020. The number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to each Award shall be computed as follows: applicable Reduction Percentage of one one-twenty-fourth (1/24) of the employee’s annual salary prior to the reduction divided by the per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American on the trading day prior to the end of each semi-monthly pay period. The Awards will vest six months after issuance at which time the shares will be issued. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or any applicable employment agreement, the employee must remain in the employ of the Company during the vesting period and the Awards are not transferable prior to vesting. These actions will remain in effect until June 30, 2020. The Board may modify, terminate or extend the program at its discretion.
Additionally, the Board modified the independent director compensation program, which previously provided for a $30,000 annual cash retainer paid quarterly and annual restricted stock unit grants equivalent to $30,000 of worth of stock, eliminating the cash retainer and replacing it with quarterly restricted stock unit grants equivalent to $7,500 worth of stock vesting six months after date of issuance.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Company Overview
Inuvo is a technology company that develops and sells information technology solutions for marketing. These platforms predictively 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 the delivery of hundreds of millions of 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 has contractual relationships with three clients who collectively manage over 50% of all U.S. digital media spend.
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 including 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.
21

There are many barriers to entry associated with Inuvo’s business model, including a proficiency in large scale information processing, predictive software development, marketing data products, analytics, artificial intelligence, integration to the internet of things (IOT), and the relationships required to execute within the IOT. Inuvo’s intellectual property is protected by 17 issued and eight pending patents.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
First identified in late 2019 and known now as COVID-19, the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals and businesses worldwide. In response, many countries have implemented measures to combat the outbreak which has had an unprecedented economic consequence. We did not experience an impact from COVID-19 through the end of fiscal year 2019 and had only minor impact from COVID-19 in the first quarter of 2020. Because we operate in the digital advertising industry, unlike a brick and mortar-based company, predicting the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on our company is difficult. Beginning in late April 2020, we have experienced a significant reduction in marketing budgets for some IntentKey clients, a decrease in the number of supply partners and quantity of Internet traffic from supply partners within ValidClick, and a decrease in overall monetization rates in ValidClick, the combination of which has resulted in a significant reduction in our revenue run rate.
In response to COVID-19, we have started to curtail expenses, including compensation and travel, and we have issued a work from home policy to protect our employees and their families from virus transmission associated with co-workers. Additionally, in April 2020, we obtained an unsecured Paycheck Protection Program loan under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of $1.1 million which we are using primarily for payroll costs.
Because of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, we are unable at this time to predict with any certainty how the second quarter will materialize and whether our revenue run rate will improve. As a result of this uncertainty we are focusing our resources on areas we believe have immediate revenue potential and attempting to reduce expenses where necessary with as little disruption on our daily operations as possible. Should revenues continue to turn downwards or fail to return to historical levels, we may not be able to offset expenses quickly enough.
Our net working capital was negative $7.7 million as of March 31, 2020. During March 2020 and April 2020 we raised approximately $1.5 million of working capital through the sale of our securities and in April 2020 we obtained the PPP Loan of $1.1 million. With the reduction in our revenue run rate there is an increased need for working capital to fund our operations. There is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining funding to continue operations, particularly in light of the current impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. capital markets
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 2019 appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC on May 12, 2020. The estimates and assumptions that management makes affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates and assumptions that management makes affect the 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 doubtful accounts, goodwill and purchased intangible asset valuations, valuation of long-lived assets and derivative liability. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and such differences could be material.

22

Net Revenue
We experienced lower year over year revenue for the first quarter 2020 as compared to the first quarter of 2019 due primarily to lower monetization from advertising inventory sold to our largest demand partners in the ValidClick operations. Due to seasonality, revenue is typically lower in the first quarter of the year compared to the sequentially prior quarter. The lower ValidClick revenue is partially offset by a 45% increase in the IntentKey revenue and to higher ValidClick revenue from owned and operated sites.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue is primarily generated by payments to website publishers and app developers that host advertisements we serve through ValidClick and to ad exchanges that provide access to a supply of advertising inventory where we serve advertisements using information predicted by the IntentKey. The decrease in the cost of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same time periods in 2019 is due primarily to lower ValidClick revenue.
Operating Expenses

| For the Three Months Ended March 31, |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 2020 |  | 2019 |  | Change |  | % Change |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Marketing costs | $ | 9,622,823 |  |  | $ | 6,544,009 |  |  | $ | 3,078,814 |  |  | 47.0 | % |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Compensation | 2,344,235 |  |  | 1,808,556 |  |  | 535,679 |  |  | 29.6 | % |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Selling, general and administrative | 2,058,842 |  |  | 2,377,061 |  |  | (318,219) |  |  | (13.4 | %) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Operating expenses | $ | 14,025,900 |  |  | $ | 10,729,626 |  |  | $ | 3,296,274 |  |  | 30.7 | % |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Marketing costs include those expenses required to attract an audience to the ValidClick owned and operated web properties. The increase in marketing costs is associated with higher ValidClick revenue from owned and operated sites.
Compensation expense was higher for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same time period in 2019 due partly to higher stock compensation, incentive expense and to the hiring of salespeople for the IntentKey. Our total employment, both full and part-time was 69 at March 31, 2020 compared to 66 at March 31, 2019.
Selling, general and administrative costs include professional fees, IT costs, facilities, corporate and travel and entertainment expenses. They remained relatively flat compared to the same time period in 2019 with the largest decrease coming from professional fees.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net, for March 31, 2020 was approximately $152,000 and represents interest expense on financed receivables and capital lease obligations. Interest expense, net, as of March 31, 2019 was approximately $517,000 and included a derivative liability charge of $333,333.
Other expense, net
Other expense, net, was approximately $140,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and is related to the conversion of promissory notes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The change in operating assets and liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was a provision of cash of $821,500 primarily due to an decrease the accounts receivable balance by $1,737,568. 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.
23

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our revenues declined 3.4% from the same period in the prior year. The lower revenue and higher operating costs in the three-month period of 2020 is principally responsible for our $2.8 million net loss. Of the loss, approximately $1.1 million were the non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. 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. Our principal sources of liquidity are our borrowings under our credit facility with Hitachi which is described in Note 5, the sale of our common stock and borrowings from non-bank financial institutions. During March 2020 and April 2020 we raised $1,474,175 in gross proceeds through sales of our common stock, and in April 2020 we received a $1.1 million PPP Loan. In April of 2020, the Company experienced a significant reduction in advertiser marketing budgets across both the ValidClick and IntentKey platforms as a direct consequence of COVID-19. These reductions will adversely impact our revenues and liquidity in the second quarter of 2020 and beyond, although we are unable at this time to quantify the ultimate impact on our company.
We have pooled our resources behind a plan to grow our AI technology, the IntentKey, where we have a technology advantage and higher margins. If we are successful in implementing our plan, we expect to return to a positive cash flow from operations. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to achieve this objective. We use our credit facility with Hitachi discussed above to partially fund operations. However, if we continue to experience losses, we may be unable to borrow funds under this agreement.
Though we believe current operating cash flows and the credit facility will be sufficient to sustain operations into at least the third quarter of 2020, if our plan to grow the IntentKey business is unsuccessful, we may need to fund operations through private or public sales of securities, debt financings or partnering/licensing transactions. During March 2020 and April 2020, we raised approximately $1.5 million of working capital through the sale of our securities and in April 2020 we obtained the unsecured PPP Loan of $1.1 million which we are using primarily for payroll costs. The PPP Loan is scheduled to mature two years from the date of issuance and has a 1% interest rate. Commencing on the date which is seven months following the date of the loan and continuing on the same day of each following month, we are obligated to pay principal and interest payments which will fully amortize all principal and interest (including accrued interest prior to the initial payment date) by the maturity date. The promissory note evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and provisions of the promissory note. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP Loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP Loan. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent and utility costs. No assurance is provided that we will apply for and obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.
There is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding to continue operations in which case we would need to find additional sources of credit and make substantial reductions to 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 report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2019 and 2018 and for the years then ended contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt of our ability to continue as a going concern based upon the Company having suffered recurring losses from operations and having a net capital deficiency.
Cash Flows
The table below sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

| For the three months ended March 31, |
| 2020 | 2019
| (in thousands) |
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities | $822 | $(1,048)
Net cash used in investing activities | (311) | (310)
Net cash (used in) provided in financing activities | (413) | 1,377

24

Cash Flows - Operating
Net cash provided by operating activities was $821,500 during the three months ended March 31, 2020. We reported a net loss of $2,825,236, which included non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization expense of $835,748, depreciation expense from right of use assets $105,678 and stock-based compensation expense of $208,897. Cash provided by the change in operating assets and liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2,320,139 primarily due to an decrease the accounts receivable balance by $1,737,568 and an increase in the balances of accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $108,172 and accounts payable by $594,759.
During the comparable period in 2019, cash used in operating activities was $1,047,835 from a net loss of $2,462,393, which included several non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization of $823,765 and stock-based compensation of $96,871.
Cash Flows - Investing
Net cash used in investing activities was $310,853 and $310,221 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively, and primarily consisted of capitalized internal development costs.
Cash Flows - Financing
Net cash used in financing activities was $412,829 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was predominately due to the change in our credit facility and the satisfaction of our obligations to Western Alliance Bank, offset by proceeds from the sale of common stock and ValidClick licensing agreement.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,377,497 during the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily from proceeds of the convertible notes payable.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, 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
25

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, 2020, 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 a result of this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that we did maintain disclosure controls and procedures that were 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.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
None.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS-UPDATE
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, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2020, and our subsequent filings with the SEC, 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 and our subsequent filings. We expect that these risks will continue to be exacerbated by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our company and any worsening of the economic environment.
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 2020, Yahoo! accounted for 51.4% and Google accounted for 18.4% of our revenues, respectively, and during the same period in 2018, 73.6% and 11.7%, 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.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
On May 5, 2020, the Noteholder of the remaining Calvary Note converted the final $115,000 principal amount due under the Note into 657,143 shares of our common stock, thereby satisfying the Note in full. The Noteholder was an accredited investor and the issuance of the shares was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of that act.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY AND DISCLOSURES.
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.
In March 2020, we entered into an agreement to allow a third party to license and use ValidClick technology. The agreement required a nonrefundable, fully earned fee of $500,000 in March with subsequent fees as earned in later quarters. The $500,000 fee was recognized as deferred revenue in the March 2020
