Note 1 — Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization

 

LiveOne, Inc. together with its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our”, the “Company” or “LiveOne”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Beverly Hills, California. The Company is a creator-first, music, entertainment and technology platform focused on delivering premium experiences and content worldwide through memberships, live and virtual events.

 

The Company was reincorporated in the State of Delaware on August 2, 2017, pursuant to a reincorporation merger of Loton, Corp (“Loton”) with and into LiveXLive Media, Inc., Loton’s wholly owned subsidiary at the time. As a result of the reincorporation merger, Loton ceased to exist as a separate entity, with LiveXLive Media, Inc. being the surviving entity. Effective as of October 5, 2021, the Company changed its name to LiveOne, Inc. On December 29, 2017, the Company acquired Slacker, Inc. (“Slacker”), an Internet music and radio streaming service incorporated in the state of Delaware, and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of LiveOne. On February 5, 2020, the Company acquired (i) React Presents, LLC a Delaware limited liability company (“React Presents”), and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of LiveXLive Events, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and (ii) indirectly Spring Awakening, LLC, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of React Presents, a producer, promoter and manager of in person live music festivals and events. On July 1, 2020, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, LiveXLive PodcastOne, Inc., acquired Courtside Group, Inc. (dba PodcastOne) (“PodcastOne”) (see Note 4 – Business Combinations). On December 22, 2020, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary LiveXLive Merchandising, Inc., acquired Custom Personalization Solutions, Inc. (“CPS”) (see Note 4 – Business Combinations). On October 17, 2021, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary LiveXLive PR, Inc., acquired Gramophone Media, Inc. (“Gramophone”) (see Note 4 – Business Combinations).

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, and include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The results for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 has been derived from the Company’s audited balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 29, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

 

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete audited financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 Form 10-K.

 

Going Concern and Liquidity

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity have historically been its debt and equity issuances and its cash and cash equivalents (which cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash amounted to $8.5 million as of December 31, 2022). As reflected in its condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein, the Company has a history of losses, with the exception of net income of $1.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and had a working capital deficiency of $19.7 million as of December 31, 2022. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are filed. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to execute its growth strategy and on its ability to raise additional funds. The Company filed a new universal shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “New Shelf S-3”) with the SEC, which was declared effective by the SEC on February 17, 2022. Under the New Shelf S-3, the Company has the ability to raise up to $150.0 million in cash from the sale of its equity, debt and/or other financial instruments. The continued spread of COVID-19 and uncertain market conditions may limit the Company’s ability to access capital, may reduce demand for its services and may negatively impact its ability to retain key personnel. Management may seek additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate the Company’s business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain terms that result in undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in case of equity and/or convertible debt financing. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient financing when needed, the Company may also have to reduce certain overhead costs through the reduction of salaries and other means and settle liabilities through negotiation. There can be no assurance that management’s attempts at any or all of these endeavors will be successful.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Acquisitions are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. The Company uses purchase accounting for its acquisitions, which results in all assets and liabilities of acquired businesses being recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition dates. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
