BANKS.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
|

|
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Banks.com, Inc.
(“Banks.com”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries which consist of InterSearch Corporate Services, Inc. (“ICS”), Dotted Ventures, Inc. (“Dotted”), and MyStockFund Securities, Inc. (“MyStockFund”), collectively,
the “Company”.
Banks.com operates finance related internet web properties in the Internet advertising industry, and
owns and maintains an Internet domain portfolio including
www.banks.com, www.irs.com
, and
www.filelater.com
.
ICS
is engaged principally in the business of providing highly skilled Internet and technology focused consultants.
Dotted owns an
ICANN accredited domain Registrar business.
MyStockFund is an online broker-dealer that offers an array of financial products
and services with a focus on fractional share investing.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the
Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Our business is highly seasonal and operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 2011, or for any other period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information
and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the
Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Management has evaluated events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date through the financial statement issuance date for
disclosure.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ financial statements to conform to the current
period presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any change in previously reported net income, total assets, or shareholders equity.
|

|
Significant Accounting Policies
|
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These judgments are difficult as matters that are inherently uncertain directly impact their valuation and accounting. Actual results may vary from management’s
estimates and assumptions.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.

Stock-Based Compensation.
The Compensation-Stock Compensation Topic of the FASB
ASC 718 addresses the accounting for stock options. It requires that the cost of all employee, director and consultant stock options, as well as other equity-based compensation arrangements, be reflected in the financial statements based on the
estimated fair value of the awards. It is applicable to any award that is settled or measured in stock, including stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, stock units, and employee stock purchase plans.
The Company had two equity incentive plans at September 30, 2011, the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”), and the
2005 Equity Incentive Plan (“2005 Plan”), which replaced the 2004 Plan. The termination of the 2004 Plan did not affect any outstanding options under the 2004 Plan, and all such options will continue to remain outstanding and governed by
the 2004 Plan, but no shares will be available for grant under the 2004 Plan. At September 30, 2011, 681,956 shares remained available for grant under the 2005 Plan.
A summary of the stock option activity in the Company’s equity incentive plans is as follows:

At September 30, 2011, the Company had 227,500 unvested stock options outstanding and there was
$120,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. This cost is expected to be recognized monthly on a straight-line basis over the appropriate vesting periods
through January 2014. The total net fair value of stock options vested and recognized as compensation expense was $24,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $90,000 for the same period in 2010. The associated income tax
benefit recognized was $6,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. There was no associated income tax benefit recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
There were no stock options granted during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2011, or the three months ended
September 30, 2010. The fair value of each option granted for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

Stock-Based Compensation, Continued.
On June 24, 2010, following the
Company’s 2010 annual meeting of shareholders and the election of directors for the ensuing year, the board of directors approved an award of an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Company common stock which was granted to non-employee directors on
June 25, 2010. This item has been recorded at fair value as stock compensation and additional paid-in capital. The amount of expense recognized in connection with this transaction totaled $54,000. The associated income tax benefit
recognized was $21,000. Pursuant to our 2005 Equity Compensation Plan, on the day following our annual meeting of shareholders each year, each active non-employee director is eligible to receive an annual grant of options to purchase 45,000 shares
of our Common Stock. However, each non-employee director elected to waive such non-qualified stock option award in 2010.

granted to non-employee directors on June 27, 2011. This item has been recorded at fair value as stock compensation and additional paid-in capital. The amount of expense recognized in connection with this transaction totaled $20,000. The
associated income tax benefit recognized was $8,000. Pursuant to our 2005 Equity Compensation Plan, on the day following our annual meeting of shareholders each year, each active non-employee director is eligible to receive an annual grant of
options to purchase 45,000 shares of our Common Stock. However, each non-employee director elected to waive such non-qualified stock option award in 2011.
Revenue Recognition.
Pay-for performance search results are recognized in the period in which the “click-throughs” occur. “Click-throughs” are defined as the number of times a
user clicks on a search result. Revenues derived from consulting services are recorded on a gross basis as services are performed and associated costs have been incurred using employees or independent contractors of the Company. The Company has
agreements with various entities, networks of Web properties that have integrated the Company’s search service into their sites, to provide pay-for-performance search results. The Company pays these entities based on click-throughs on these
listings. The revenue derived from pay-for-performance search results related to traffic supplied by these entities is reported gross of the payment to these entities. This revenue is reported gross primarily because the Company is the primary
obligor to its customers. Credits for charge backs are recorded net of accounts receivable. Estimated charge backs are included in the allowance for doubtful accounts, if any.
Domains and Other Intangibles.
Internet domains, or URLs, are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets of 5 to 15 years. The internet domain assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on the impairment tests
performed, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $63,250 on their
look.com
domain name during the three (and nine) months ended September 30, 2011. This impairment charge represents the difference between the sale price of the
look.com
domain name, which was subsequently sold to an unrelated party in October 2011 as described in Note 12, and the carrying value of the asset at the time of the sale. There was no impairment of internet domains during the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2010. There can be no assurance that future internet domain impairment tests will not result in a charge to operations. Other intangibles consist primarily of customer relationships that are amortized over their
estimate useful lives (generally five years).

Basic net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options and warrants, computed using the treasury stock method, plus the effect of outstanding convertible
preferred stock using the if converted method. Outstanding stock options and warrants are not considered dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 due to the net losses incurred by the company. Net
income per common share has been computed based on the following:

All outstanding options and warrants were anti-dilutive for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 because of the Company’s loss positions and were therefore excluded from the earnings per share calculation.
On July 20, 2011, a total of 477,000 outstanding common stock warrants expired. At September 30, 2011, there
were no outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock.
The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. On January 6, 2009 and January 9, 2009, the
Company amended the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to designate a series of preferred stock of the Company as Series C Preferred Stock, and authorized the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Preferred
Shares are convertible, at any time at the option of the holders, into shares of the Company’s common stock on a 3:1 ratio, subject to adjustments for any stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events. Each share of the Series C
Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive a 10% annual cumulative dividend, compounded annually. These dividends will be payable only upon a liquidation or conversion to common. For any other dividends or distributions, the Series C Preferred
Stock will participate with the common stock. On January 6, 2009, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer purchased 3,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $300,000 or $0.10
per share.
The Company records deferred income tax assets and liabilities to reflect the tax consequences on future years of
temporary differences between revenues and expenses reported for financial statement and those reported for income tax purposes. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income
in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. Valuation allowances are provided against assets which are not likely to be realized.
An income tax valuation allowance of $243,000 was established at December, 31, 2010 related to tax net operating losses that management believes may not be utilized to offset future taxable income. At
September 30, 2011, an additional valuation allowance of $152,000 was recorded to reduce the tax assets to the net value management believed was more likely than not to be realized, resulting in a zero effective tax rate for the three months
ended September 30, 2011.
On December 7, 2010, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement with Domain Capital, LLC, (“Domain
Capital”) consisting of an agreement to assign the domain name, Banks.com, to Domain Capital in exchange for $600,000 in cash and a lease agreement to lease back the domain name from Domain Capital for a five year term with an effective
interest rate of 15%. At the same time, the parties also entered into an Exclusive Option to Purchase whereby Domain Capital granted the Company an option to purchase the Banks.com domain name for a nominal amount at the end of the lease. The lease
agreement was effective as of the close of the assignment of the domain name and provides for monthly payments of $14,274. The Company accounts for this transaction as a financing due to the Company’s continuing involvement and bargain purchase
at end of the lease. The lease agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, nonpayment, failure to comply with the other agreements in the lease agreement within certain specified periods of time, and events of
bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization. The Company may pre-pay the balance of the lease payments at any time by paying to Domain Capital the pre-payment amount as described in the lease agreement, provided that if certain events of default have
occurred and are continuing, the Company must exercise its right to pre-pay within 15 days following its receipt of notice of such default from Domain Capital and must also pay any then outstanding lease payments. The capital lease obligation had a
balance of $535,895 at September 30, 2011, of which approximately $97,000 is classified in current liabilities with the remainder being classified as long term debt.

Notes Payable, Continued
|
Effective as of December 21, 2010, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note
in the amount of $100,000 (the “Note”) to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Daniel M. O’Donnell, and his wife, Kimberly L. O’Donnell, pursuant to which they loaned such amount to the Company. The Note bears interest
commencing December 1, 2010, at the following rates: 20.00% per annum during the first six month period (December 2010 – May 2011); 15.00% per annum during the second six month period (June – November 2011); and
17.50% per annum during the third six month period (December 2011 – May 2012). Monthly payments of approximately $1,667, consisting solely of accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Note were due and paid beginning
December 31, 2010 and ending May 31, 2011. On May 31, 2011, a principal payment of $25,000 was due and paid on the Note. During the period commencing June 1, 2011 and ending May 31, 2012, the Company must make monthly
principal payments averaging approximately $4,167 plus accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Note. On May 31, 2012, the remaining unpaid principal balance of the Note will be due and payable. The Note is unsecured and
subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness to Silicon Valley Bank. The Note had a balance of $59,154 at September 30, 2011, which is classified in current liabilities.

Revolving Line of Credit
|
In March 2010, the Company established a $2.5 million revolving line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank
(“SVB”) for a term of one year with interest at prime plus 2.50% to 3.25%. Under the terms of the loan agreement between the Company and SVB (the “Loan Agreement”), SVB could advance funds to the Company collateralized by certain
receivables not to exceed $3,125,000. On March 5, 2010, SVB advanced approximately $1,850,000 to the Company, which was used to pay the outstanding balance on the Company’s Senior Subordinated Notes. An amendment to the Loan Agreement on
November 24, 2010, among other things, decreased the facility amount to $1,250,000. On March 2, 2011, another amendment decreased the facility amount to $175,000, and extended the term of the Loan Agreement to April 1, 2011, when it
ultimately terminated. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had no revolving line of credit.
The Company incurred losses of $944,000 and $1,190,000 in calendar year 2010 and for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011 respectively. While the Company believes its current funds, with the proceeds from its recent sale of the
look.com
domain name (see Note 12), will be sufficient to enable it to meet its planned expenditures through at
least January 1, 2012, if anticipated operating results are not achieved, management has the intent and believes it has the ability to delay or reduce expenditures so as not to require additional financing sources. Failure to generate
sufficient cash flows from operations, obtain a line of credit or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.

Economic Dependence, Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Risk
|
Although the Company has substantially reduced activity in the online search and advertising business, a significant
portion of the Company’s revenues have historically been generated by a limited number of advertising network partners. The Company is paid when search results generated by these partners are clicked on one of the Company’s web properties.
The expiration of one or more of these contracts has historically adversely impacted the operations of the Company. Our contractual relationship with InfoSpace, Inc. was consummated in the fourth quarter of 2007 and accounted for a significant
portion of the Company’s revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, totaling $1,257,000 and $5,365,000, respectively. This agreement will automatically renew on December 31, 2011 for successive one year terms
unless either party provides the other written notice of termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current term. Accounts receivable at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, included $32,000
and $144,000 due from this advertising network partner. The Company is taking proactive measures to both expand its business in the finance vertical and to exit or outsource the business of online search and advertising. The change in the
Company’s business model to focus its strategy in the finance vertical on direct advertising relationships and customer acquisition through offering financial products and services is expected to substantially reduce the Company’s overall
reliance on advertising network partners.

Economic Dependence, Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Risk, Continued

In recent years, InfoSpace has been the Company’s primary advertising network
partner, providing the Company with paid search results primarily from Google, and has historically been the source of a majority of the Company’s revenue. The Company has had frequent instances in the past where it has not been paid for
all of the revenue it generated and the Company cannot be assured that this will not happen in the future. In these instances, Google has retroactively charged the Company back for revenue generated that they deemed to be questionable. Although
the Company takes proactive measures to mitigate these instances through the use of tools to gauge traffic quality, these credits to revenue come with little or no substantiation and/or support with limited recourse. In these instances, the
Company has already incurred traffic acquisition costs that are not likely to be recovered. Revenue credits recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $217,000 and $596,000, respectively, and $364,000 and $601,000 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
On June 20, 2011, the Company received a letter from the NYSE Amex LLC (“NYSE Amex” or the
“Exchange”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(f)(v) of the Exchange’s Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) because the trading price of the Company’s common stock averaged $0.13 per
share over a consecutive 30-day trading period ending June 17, 2011. NYSE Amex advised the Company that it deems it appropriate for the Company to effect a reverse stock split to remain in compliance with its continued listing standards and has
given the Company until November 18, 2011 to effect such a split. The Exchange’s notification also instructed the Company to advise the Exchange if the Company believes that other pending or planned actions would address the Company’s
low selling price. The Company continues to evaluate whether it will effect a reverse stock split. If the Company fails to effect a reverse stock split by November 18, 2011, or otherwise demonstrate to NYSE Amex that any pending or planned
actions will address its low stock price, NYSE Amex may immediately commence delisting proceedings with respect to the Company’s common stock.
On October 24, 2011, as part of its continuing strategy to exit the search business and focus on the finance
vertical, the Company completed the sale of the domain name,
look.com
, to Quidsi, Inc. (the “Buyer”), pursuant to the terms of the agreement between the parties (the “Domain Name Transfer Agreement”), dated
October 18, 2011. The purchase price of $400,000 was payable to the Company upon successful completion of transfer of the domain name to the Buyer. An escrow fee of $3,560 was payable to the escrow agent by the Buyer. Each of the parties to the
Domain Name Transfer Agreement made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Domain Name Transfer Agreement.

When reading this section of this Quarterly Report, it is important that you also read the financial statements and related notes
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. This section of this Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,”
“ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking
statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our future operating results, financial position, prospects, business strategy, expectations regarding our growth and the growth of the industry in which we operate, and plans and
objectives of management for future operations, are inherently uncertain as they are based on our expectations and assumptions concerning future events. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report may turn out to be inaccurate for
many reasons. Our forward-looking statements may be affected by inaccurate assumptions we make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in this report, in Part II, Item 1A
under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and those described from time to time in our subsequent filings with the SEC. Among the factors
that could cause future results to differ materially from those provided herein are: (i) we may be unable to execute and implement our growth strategy, (ii) we cannot be certain of our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our
obligations on a timely basis; (iii) we may be unable to achieve our targeted performance goals for our business; (iv) we may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital on a timely basis to continue as a going concern;(v) we may need
to seek protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and, if we liquidate our assets, the capital available for distribution to stockholders, if any ,may be insignificant; and (vi) other unforeseen events may impact our
business, financial condition or operating results. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. We disclaim any obligation to update or alter our forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
OVERVIEW
General
We own and operate finance related Internet media properties including:
banks.com, irs.com, filelater.com and
mystockfund.com.
Our properties provide users with relevant content and services and provide vendors with targeted online advertising opportunities. Through
banks.com
, we provide access to current financial content, including
financial news, business articles, interest-rate tables, stock quotes, stock tracking and financial calculators. We also provide users access to tax related financial services including online tax preparation through
irs.com
and
online tax extensions through
filelater.com
, a business we acquired in late 2010, as well as online stock brokerage services through
mystockfund.com
. We believe that focusing our content and services in the high-traffic financial
services vertical will allow us to provide our advertisers access to highly relevant, typed in and search engine optimization generated traffic. Although we continue to operate the proprietary search website,
searchexplorer.com,
on a limited
basis, we are continuing our ongoing efforts to exit this line of business and completed the sale of the domain name,
look.com
for $400,000 in October of 2011. We generate revenue on these proprietary search sites primarily through
search engine marketing efforts. In late 2009, we launched a premium pay-per-click advertising network known as the
InterSearch AdNet
, which currently serves over 10 billion advertising impressions per month on our proprietary websites, as
well as a high quality publishing distribution network. During the third quarter of 2011, we began the process of outsourcing this line of business to a third party provider, which will help us further reduce technology infrastructure expenses,
while allowing us to continue to share in the revenue and profit this business line generates. In addition, we provide Internet technology professional services to Fortune 500 and other companies operating in the financial services sector.
We review our operations based on both our financial results and non-financial measures. Our primary source of revenue is
Internet advertising services; although we continue to expand our other revenue we derive from sources such as tax preparation, tax extension and stock brokerage services. For our Internet advertising services we review revenue-per-click and
cost-per-click. When an Internet user clicks-through on a sponsored listing through our distribution network, our arrangements with our advertising network partners and direct advertisers provide that we receive a fixed percentage of their related
advertising revenue. A significant reduction in click-throughs or an advertising network partner exerting significant pricing pressures and/or retroactive chargebacks on us has had a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Our largest
expense has been traffic acquisition costs, which consist primarily of Internet advertising costs. Although we have substantially reduced activity in the online search and advertising business, we are continuing our search engine optimization
efforts and taking advantage of the absence of traffic acquisition costs associated with this traffic and increasing page yield through better monetization as a result of insight gained through our proprietary analytics.
We currently depend, and expect to continue to depend for the foreseeable future, upon a relatively small number of direct advertisers
and advertising network partners for a significant percentage of our revenues. In October 2008, we entered into a distribution agreement with InfoSpace, Inc. to provide paid meta-search results from Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and/or Ask.com on the
banks.com
and
look.com
properties. This agreement will automatically renew on December 31, 2011 for a one year term and thereafter for successive one year terms, unless either party provides the other written notice of termination
at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current term. InfoSpace, Inc. represented 32% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 63% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
12
For the 2011 tax season, we opted to emphasize customer acquisition strategy through the
marketing of our white label tax preparation service in lieu of selling that inventory to a direct tax preparation advertiser. Historically, the revenue derived through our customer acquisition efforts generally results in higher revenue per click
and margins in the long term due to year over year retention of customers we acquire, but has an adverse affect on revenue per click in the short term. Depending on business conditions, we have employed one or both strategies in past tax seasons and
will likely continue to employ one or both during future tax seasons. For the 2012 tax season, we have contracted with a direct advertiser for our tax preparation advertising inventory. In December, 2010, we acquired the tax extension business of
FileLater.com with 2011 being the initial tax season under our ownership. Our pro forma, year over year, tax extension related revenue was up 73%.
Our recent financial performance has been negatively impacted by a series of revenue charge backs from our advertising network partners in our non tax related, search business, due to traffic quality. The
revenue associated with these charge backs also has significant corresponding traffic acquisition costs that are often not recoverable from our traffic partners. Revenue credits recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011
were $217,000 and $596,000, respectively, and $364,000 and $601,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. As a result, we substantially reduced our marketing efforts in our search business in the fourth quarter of 2010 and
reduced our cost structure accordingly in an effort to become less reliant on this business line during the off U.S. tax season. Our decision to reduce our reliance and exposure in our search business resulted in decreased search engine marketing
efforts and a reduction in our revenues for the period ended September 30, 2011. We expect that our reduced emphasis on our search business will continue to adversely impact our revenues for the foreseeable future. As a result, we are focused
on increasing our revenues from sources such as tax preparation, tax extension and stock brokerage services and reducing our traffic acquisition costs through search engine optimization efforts and other internally developed analytics. Our ability
to grow also depends on our ability to continue to increase the number of advertisers who use our services and the amount these advertisers spend on our services.
NYSE Amex Listing
On June 20, 2011, we received a letter from the
NYSE Amex LLC (“NYSE Amex” or the “Exchange”) because the trading price of our common stock averaged $0.13 per share over a consecutive 30-day trading period ending June 17, 2011. NYSE Amex advised the Company that it deems
it appropriate for the Company to effect a reverse stock split to remain in compliance with its continued listing standards and has given the Company until November 18, 2011 to effect such a split. The Exchange’s notification also
instructed the Company to advise the Exchange if the Company believes that other pending or planned actions would address the Company’s low selling price. The Company continues to evaluate whether it will effect a reverse stock split. If we
fail to effect a reverse stock split by November 18, 2011, or otherwise demonstrate to NYSE Amex that any pending or planned actions will address our low stock price, NYSE Amex may immediately commence delisting proceedings with respect to our
common stock.
Quarterly Results May Fluctuate
Our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past and will continue to do so in the future due to our concentration in the online tax-related business. Our reliance on revenues generated through our
ownership of the Internet domains
irs.com
and
filelater.com
will continue to cause our revenues to be largely seasonal in nature, with peak revenues occurring during the U.S. tax filing season of January through April. Therefore, our
first and second quarter results are not indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Revenues.
Revenues of $613,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were adversely impacted by a
reduction in our search engine marketing efforts resulting from advertising network partner charge backs of approximately $217,000 and our decision to substantially reduce our emphasis and reliance on our search business. This compares to revenues
of $1.4 million for the same period in 2010, which were affected by advertising network partner charge backs of $364,000, but not affected by a reduction in our search engine marketing efforts.
Traffic Acquisition Costs.
Traffic acquisition costs were $346,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to
$761,000 for the same period in 2010. The 55% decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in our search engine marketing efforts resulting from our decision to substantially reduce our emphasis and reliance on our search business.
Depreciation and Amortization.
Depreciation and amortization decreased to $402,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2011 from $421,000 for the same period in 2010. The 5% decrease was primarily attributable to certain assets being fully depreciated in 2010.
Sales and Marketing.
Sales and marketing expense was $133,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $237,000 for the same period in 2010. The 44% decrease was due primarily
to a decrease in sales commission expenses.
General and Administrative.
General and administrative expenses decreased
to $613,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $878,000 for the same period in 2010. The 30% decrease is due primarily to the reduction in personnel headcount and in other general and administrative expenses we initiated in the
fourth quarter of 2010 to better align our cost structure with our reduced emphasis and reliance on our search business.
Impairment of Domain.
Impairment of domain was $63,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to zero for the
same period in 2010. This was due to an impairment charge recorded on our
look.com
domain name during the third quarter of 2011.
Interest Expense.
Interest expense was $23,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $14,000 for the same period in 2010.
Income Tax Expense.
Income tax expense was zero for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $337,000 for the
same period in 2010. Pretax loss was $967,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to pretax loss of $902,000 for the same period in 2010. In 2010, any differences from the statutory federal income tax rate are a result of
state taxes and permanent tax differences, such as stock compensation and an income tax valuation allowance where management believed that a tax benefit was more likely than not to be realized. In 2011, any deferred tax benefit related to the 2011
loss was offset by an equal increase in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, thus the decrease.
Net Loss.
Net
loss available to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was $975,000, or $.04 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $573,000, or $.02 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2010.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Revenues.
Revenues of $4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were adversely impacted by a reduction in our
search engine marketing efforts resulting from our decision to substantially reduce our emphasis and reliance on our search business, advertising network partner charge backs of approximately $596,000, our emphasis on customer acquisition in our tax
preparation business, and the absence of a direct online tax preparation advertiser. This compares to revenues of $8.5 million for the same period in 2010, which were not affected by any of these factors, except for charge backs of $601,000.
Traffic Acquisition Costs.
Traffic acquisition costs were $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2011 compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2010. The 62% decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in our search engine marketing efforts resulting from our decision to substantially reduce our emphasis and reliance on our search
business.
Depreciation and Amortization.
Depreciation and amortization decreased to $1.2 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2011 from $1.3 million for the same period in 2010. The 5% decrease was primarily attributable to certain assets being fully depreciated in 2010.
Sales and Marketing.
Sales and marketing expense was $448,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $879,000 for the same period in 2010. The 49% decrease was due primarily
to a decrease in sales commission expenses.
General and Administrative.
General and administrative expenses decreased
to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $3.1 million for the same period in 2010. The 38% decrease is due primarily to the reduction in personnel headcount and in other general and administrative expenses we initiated
in the fourth quarter of 2010 to better align our cost structure with our reduced emphasis and reliance on our search business.
15
Impairment of Domain.
Impairment of domain was $63,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011 compared to zero for the same period in 2010. This was due to an impairment charge recorded on our
look.com
domain name during the third quarter of 2011.
Interest Expense.
Interest expense was $84,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $363,000 for the same
period in 2010. The 77% decrease is primarily a result of the payoff of our 13.5% Senior Subordinated Notes on March 5, 2010.
Income Tax Expense.
Income tax expense was $49,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to an income tax benefit of $247,000 for the same period in 2010. Pretax loss was $1.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to pretax loss of $746,000 for the same period in 2010. In 2010, any differences from the statutory federal income tax rate are a result of state taxes and permanent tax differences,
such as stock compensation and an income tax valuation allowance where management believed that a tax benefit was more likely than not to be realized. In 2011, the tax expense reflects an increase in the Company’s deferred tax assets valuation
allowance.
Net Loss.
Net loss available to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was
$1.2 million or $.05 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $522,000, or $.02 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since inception, we have primarily
financed our operations through internally generated funds, debt financing, and the use of our line of credit when available. We have engaged in private sales of our common stock and debt financing in order to fund the purchase price of some of our
acquisitions. As of September 30, 2011, we had $97,000 in cash compared to $107,000 at December 31, 2010. As of September 30, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $470,000 compared to a working capital deficit of $555,000 on
December 31, 2010.
In March 2010, we established a $2.5 million revolving line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank
(“SVB”) for a term of one year. The loan agreement between us and SVB (the “Loan Agreement”) was executed and effective on March 3, 2010 and initially funded on March 5, 2010. The proceeds were utilized to retire the
outstanding principal balance of approximately $1.92 million on our senior debt. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, SVB could advance funds to us to finance certain Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Loan Agreement). When SVB made an advance,
the Eligible Account became a Financed Receivable (as described in additional detail in the Loan Agreement). The aggregate face amount of all Financed Receivables outstanding at any time under the Loan Agreement could not exceed $3,125,000 (the
“Facility Amount”). An amendment to the Loan Agreement on November 24, 2010, among other things, decreased the Facility Amount to $1,250,000. On March 2, 2011, another amendment decreased the facility amount to $175,000 and
extended the term of the Loan Agreement to April 1, 2011, when it ultimately terminated. As of September 30, 2011, we had no revolving line of credit with SVB. We may pursue a new credit facility to help alleviate any potential shortfalls
in cash flow that we may experience, although there is no guarantee we will ultimately pursue and/or secure such a facility. We generated $196,000 in operating cash flow during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $1.7 million
for the same period in 2010. Since the first quarter of 2010, our liquidity has been negatively impacted by revenue charge backs, as well as by an increase in legal expenses related to litigation with two of our former officers, which has been
settled. As such, we entered into the transactions described below to improve our liquidity position and to fund the acquisition of
FileLater.com.
On December 7, 2010, we entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement with Domain Capital, LLC, (“Domain Capital”), consisting of an agreement to assign the domain name, Banks.com, to Domain
Capital in exchange for $600,000 in cash and a lease agreement to lease back the domain name from Domain Capital for a five year term. At the same time, the parties also entered into an Exclusive Option to Purchase whereby Domain Capital granted us
an option to purchase the Banks.com domain name for a nominal amount at the end of the lease. The lease agreement was effective as of the close of the assignment of the domain name and provides for monthly rent payments of $14,274. The lease
agreement provides for customary events of default, including, among other things, nonpayment, failure to comply with the other agreements in the lease agreement within certain specified periods of time, and events of bankruptcy, insolvency and
reorganization. We may pre-pay the balance of the lease payments at any time by paying to Domain Capital the pre-payment amount as described in the lease agreement, provided that if certain events of default have occurred and are continuing, we must
exercise our right to pre-pay within 15 days following our receipt of notice of such default from Domain Capital and must also pay any then outstanding lease payments. The capital lease obligation had a balance of $535,895 at September 30,
2011, of which approximately $97,000 is classified in current liabilities with the remainder being classified as long term debt.
On December 21, 2010, we issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $100,000 (the “Note”) to our Chief Executive Officer, Daniel M. O’Donnell, and his wife, Kimberly L.
O’Donnell, pursuant to which they loaned such amount to us. The Note bears interest commencing December 1, 2010, at the following rates: 20.00% per annum during the first six month period (December 2010 – May 2011);
15.00% per annum during the second six month period (June – November 2011); and 17.50% per annum during the third six month period (December 2011 – May 2012). Commencing December 31, 2010 and ending May 31, 2011, we
must make monthly payments of approximately $1,667, consisting solely of accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Note. On May 31, 2011, a principal payment of $25,000 was due and paid. During the period commencing
June 1, 2011 and ending May 31, 2012, we must make monthly principal payments averaging approximately $4,167 plus accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Note. On May 31, 2012, the remaining unpaid principal
balance of the Note will be due and payable. The Note had a balance of $59,154 at September 30, 2011, which is classified in current liabilities.
16
We have an on-going need to raise additional capital to support our operations, which
historically we have done primarily through internally generated funds, debt financing, and the use of our line of credit, when available. In the current financial and economic environment and the current operating environment for our Internet
advertising business and related results, it is uncertain whether we can obtain additional funding through our traditional sources of capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We may also incur
substantial costs in connection with evaluating, negotiating and consummating future capital-raising and/or strategic or partnering transactions or liquidating our assets and winding-up our operations. We cannot currently predict the extent of these
costs. Even if we incur costs in pursuing, evaluating and negotiating particular capital-raising and/or strategic or partnering transactions, our efforts may not prove successful. Excluding the potentially significant costs associated with
evaluating, negotiating and consummating capital-raising and/or strategic or partnering transactions or seeking protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or liquidating our assets and winding-up our operations, we anticipate that
our cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2011, together with the proceeds from the sale of our
look.com
domain name for $400,000 completed in October of 2011 and cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to permit us to
conduct our business through at least January 1, 2012. We may need to raise additional capital to continue our business after this period.
Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Net cash provided by operating activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $196,000 consisting primarily of net loss of $1.2 million increased by depreciation and amortization
of $1.2 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $349,000, offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $408,000.
Net cash provided by investing activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was zero consisting of proceeds from the sale of furniture and equipment, offset by the purchase of
computer hardware.
Net cash used in financing activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $206,000

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
ESTIMATES
Our management’s discussion and analysis are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and
assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing at the beginning of this Quarterly Report and are fully disclosed in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.

Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer and principal financial officer),
Daniel M. O’Donnell, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), and, based on such evaluation, concluded that, as of the Evaluation
Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information we are required to disclose in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
