1.

Organization and Principal Activities

   

YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc., is a Nevada corporation that primarily operates in China (“PRC”) through its subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and the consolidated subsidiary of its VIEs. The Company, its subsidiaries and consolidated VIEs are collectively referred to as YOU On Demand (“YOU On Demand”, “we”, “us”, or “the Company”).

   

YOU On Demand provides premium content and integrated value-added service solutions for the delivery of VOD and paid video programming to digital cable providers, Internet Protocol Television (“IPTV”) providers, Over-the-Top (“OTT”) streaming providers, mobile manufacturers and operators.

   

In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature that is necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

   

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2016 (our “2015 Annual Report”).

   

In 2016, the Company adopted the Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which requires the debt issuance costs be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, instead of reported on the balance sheet as an asset. The costs will continue to be amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have any impact on prior period financial statements as no debt issuance cost were incurred for the debt that was outstanding as of December 31, 2015.

   
2.

Going Concern and Management’s Plans

   

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we incurred net losses from continuing operations of approximately $2.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively, and cash used in operations was approximately $1.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Further, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $88.6 million and $81.2 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, due to recurring losses since our inception. Due to the issuance of a convertible promissory note during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we had negative working capital of approximately $10.0 million as of March 31, 2016.

   

The Company must continue to rely on proceeds from debt and equity issuances to pay for ongoing operating expenses in order to execute its business plan. On January 31, 2014, we completed a Series E Preferred Share financing in which we raised $19.0 million and on March 28, 2016, we completed a common stock financing in which we raised an additional $10.0 million. In addition, the convertible promissory note issued to Beijing Sun Seven Stars Culture Development Limited (“SSS”) is automatically convertible into our common stock upon receiving the necessary shareholder approvals so we do not anticipate to settle this note of approximately $17.7 million by use of cash. We also have the ability to raise funds through various methods by either issuing debt or equity instruments. However, additional financing may not be available to the Company on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or such resources may not be received in a timely manner.

   

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

VIE Structure and Arrangements

   

To comply with PRC laws and regulation that prohibit or restrict foreign ownership of companies that provides value-added telecommunication services, the Company provides its services through Sinotop Beijing and its subsidiary, Zhong Hai Video, which holds the licenses and approvals to provide digital distribution and Internet content services in the PRC. The Company has the ability to control Sinotop Beijing and Zhong Hai Video through a series of contractual agreements entered into among YOD WFOE, YOD Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing and the legal shareholders of Sinotop Beijing.

   

Prior to January 2016, the legal shareholder of Sinotop Beijing was Zhang Yan (the spouse of our then-CEO) and we entered into a series of contractual agreements to give us the ability to control Sinotop Beijing with Zhang Yan. In January 2016, in connection with the appointment of our new CEO and in accordance with our rights under the contractual agreements, (1) the legal ownership of Sinotop Beijing was transferred from Zhang Yan to Bing Wu, the brother of our current Chairman and Yun Zhu, our Vice President and former Vice President of SSS, (2) the Company terminated the series of contractual arrangement with Zhang Yan, and (3) the Company entered into new contractual agreements with Bing Wu and Yun Zhu (collectively, the “New Sinotop VIE Agreements”). Although the New Sinotop VIE Agreements resulted in changes to the legal shareholders of Sinotop Beijing, there was no change in the Company’s ability to control Sinotop Beijing or the Company’s rights to 100% of the economic benefits of Sinotop Beijing. The Company was the primary beneficiary of Sinotop Beijing prior to the signing of the New Sinotop VIE Agreements and the Company remained the primary beneficiary of Sinotop Beijing after the signing of the New Sinotop VIE Agreements. Accordingly, the Company did not consider the change in legal ownership of Sinotop Beijing to have any impact to the Company’s consolidation of Sinotop Beijing. The key terms of the New Sinotop VIE Agreements are summarized as follows:

11


Equity Pledge Agreement

Pursuant to the Equity Pledge Agreement among YOD WFOE, Sinotop Beijing, Bing Wu and Yun Zhu (collectively, the “Nominee Shareholders”), the Nominee Shareholders pledged all of their equity interests in Sinotop Beijing (the “Collateral”) to YOD WFOE as security for the performance of the obligations of Sinotop Beijing to make all the required technical service fee payments pursuant to the Technical Services Agreement and for performance of the Nominee Shareholders’ obligation under the Call Option Agreement. The terms of the Equity Pledge Agreement expire upon satisfaction of all obligations under the Technical Services Agreement and Call Option Agreement.

Call Option Agreement

Pursuant to the Call Option Agreement among YOD WFOE, Sinotop Beijing and the Nominee Shareholders, and entered into in connection with the Technical Services Agreement, the Nominee Shareholders granted an exclusive option to YOD WFOE, or its designee, to purchase, at any time and from time to time, to the extent permitted under PRC law, all or any portion of the Nominee Shareholders’ equity in Sinotop Beijing. The exercise price of the option shall be determined by YOD WFOE at its sole discretion, subject to any restrictions imposed by PRC law. The term of the agreement is until all of the equity interest in Sinotop Beijing held by the Nominee Shareholders are transferred to YOD WFOE, or its designee and may not be terminated by any part to the agreement without consent of the other parties.

Power of Attorney

Pursuant to the Power of Attorney agreements among YOD WFOE, Sinotop Beijing and each of the respective Nominee Shareholders, each of the Nominee Shareholders granted YOD WFOE the irrevocable right, for the maximum period permitted by law, all of its voting rights as shareholders of Sinotop Beijing. The Nominee Shareholders may not transfer any of its equity interest in Sinotop Beijing to any party other than YOD WFOE. The Power of Attorney agreements may not be terminated except until all of the equity in Sinotop Beijing has been transferred to YOD WFOE or its designee.

Technical Service Agreement

Pursuant to the Technical Service Agreement between YOD WFOE and Sinotop Beijing, YOD WFOE has the exclusive right to provide technical service, marketing and management consulting service, financial support service and human resource support services to Sinotop Beijing, and Sinotop Beijing is required to take all commercially reasonable efforts to permit and facilitate the provision of the services by YOD WFOE. As compensation for providing the services, YOD WFOE is entitled to receive service fees from Sinotop Beijing equivalent to YOD WFOE’s cost plus 30% of such costs. YOD WFOE and Sinotop Beijing agree to periodically review the service fee and make adjustments as deemed appropriate. The term of the Technical Services Agreement is perpetual, and may only be terminated upon written consent of both parties.

Spousal Consent

Pursuant to the Spousal Consent, undersigned by the respective spouse of Nominee Shareholders (collectively, the “Spouses”), the Spouses unconditionally and irrevocably agreed to the execution of the Equity Pledge Agreement, Call Option Agreement and Power of Attorney agreement. The Spouses agreed to not make any assertions in connection with the equity interest of Sinotop Beijing and to waived consent on further amendment or termination of the Equity Pledge Agreement, Call Option Agreement and Power of Attorney agreement. The Spouses further pledge to execute all necessary documents and take all necessary actions to ensure appropriate performance under these agreements upon YOD WFOE’s request. In the event the Spouses obtain any equity interests of Sinotop Beijing which are held by the Nominee Shareholders, the Spouses agreed to be bound by the New Sinotop VIE Agreements, including the Technical Services Agreement, and comply with the obligations thereunder, including sign a series of written documents in substantially the same format and content as the New Sinotop VIE Agreements.

12


Letter of Indemnification

Pursuant to the Letter of Indemnification among YOD WFOE and Bing Wu and YOD WFOE and Yun Zhu, YOD WFOE agreed to indemnify Nominee Shareholders against any personal, tax or other liabilities incurred in connection with their role in equity transfer to the greatest extent permitted under PRC law. YOD WFOE further waived and released Nominee Shareholders from any claims arising from, or related to, their role as the legal shareholder of Sinotop Beijing, provided that their actions as a nominee shareholder are taken in good faith and are not opposed to YOD WFOE’s best interests. Conversely, the Nominee Shareholders will not be entitled to dividends or other benefits generated therefrom, or receive any compensation in connection with this arrangement. The Letter of Indemnification will remain valid until either Nominee Shareholders or YOD WFOE terminates the agreement by giving the other party hereto sixty (60) days’ prior written notice.

In addition to the New Sinotop VIE Agreements, the Management Service Agreement between Sinotop Beijing and YOD Hong Kong continued to remain in effect, the key terms of which is as follows:

Management Services Agreement

Pursuant to a Management Services Agreement, as of March 9, 2010, YOD Hong Kong has the exclusive right to provide to Sinotop Beijing management, financial and other services related to the operation of Sinotop Beijing’s business, and Sinotop Beijing is required to take all commercially reasonable efforts to permit and facilitate the provision of the services by YOD Hong Kong. As compensation for providing the services, YOD Hong Kong is entitled to receive a fee from Sinotop Beijing, upon demand, equal to 100% of the annual net profits of Sinotop Beijing during the term of the Management Services Agreement. YOD Hong Kong may also request ad hoc quarterly payments of the aggregate fee, which payments will be credited against Sinotop Beijing’s future payment obligations.

The Management Services Agreement also provides YOD Hong Kong, or its designee, with a right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of the equity of Sinotop Beijing upon any proposal by the sole shareholder of Sinotop Beijing to transfer such equity. In addition, at the sole discretion of YOD Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing is obligated to transfer to YOD Hong Kong, or its designee, any part or all of the business, personnel, assets and operations of Sinotop Beijing which may be lawfully conducted, employed, owned or operated by YOD Hong Kong, including:

(a)     business opportunities presented to, or available to Sinotop Beijing may be pursued and contracted for in the name of YOD Hong Kong rather than Sinotop Beijing, and at its discretion, YOD Hong Kong may employ the resources of Sinotop Beijing to secure such opportunities;

(b)     any tangible or intangible property of Sinotop Beijing, any contractual rights, any personnel, and any other items or things of value held by Sinotop Beijing may be transferred to YOD Hong Kong at book value;

(c)     real property, personal or intangible property, personnel, services, equipment, supplies and any other items useful for the conduct of the business may be obtained by YOD Hong Kong by acquisition, lease, license or otherwise, and made available to Sinotop Beijing on terms to be determined by agreement between YOD Hong Kong and Sinotop Beijing;

(d)     contracts entered into in the name of Sinotop Beijing may be transferred to YOD Hong Kong, or the work under such contracts may be subcontracted, in whole or in part, to YOD Hong Kong, on terms to be determined by agreement between YOD Hong Kong and Sinotop Beijing; and

(e)     any changes to, or any expansion or contraction of, the business may be carried out at the sole discretion of YOD Hong Kong, and in the name of and at the expense of, YOD Hong Kong; provided, however, that none of the foregoing may cause or have the effect of terminating (without being substantially replaced under the name of YOD Hong Kong) or adversely affecting any license, permit or regulatory status of Sinotop Beijing.

The term of the Management Services Agreement is 20 years, and may not be terminated by Sinotop Beijing, except with the consent of, or a material breach by, YOD Hong Kong.

Pursuant to the above contractual agreements, YOD WFOE can have the assets transferred freely out of Sinotop Beijing without any restrictions. Therefore, YOD WFOE considers that there is no asset of Sinotop Beijing or Zhong Hai Video that can be used only to settle obligations of Sinotop Beijing or Zhong Hai Video, except for the registered capital of these two entities amounting to RMB17.0 million (approximately $2.6 million) as of March 31, 2016. As Sinotop Beijing and Zhong Hai Video are incorporated as limited liability companies under PRC Company Law, creditors of these two entities do not have recourse to the general credit of other entities of the Company.

7. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require the categorization of financial assets and liabilities, based on the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The various levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

 

Level 1 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access.

   

 

Level 2 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

   

 

Level 3 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Accounting standards require the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

We review the valuation techniques used to determine if the fair value measurements are still appropriate on an annual basis, and evaluate and adjust the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements based on current market conditions and third party information.

Common stock is valued at closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

The fair value of the warrant liabilities at March 31, 2016 were valued using the Black-Scholes Merton method as an estimate for the Monte Carlos Simulation method which was the method used at the year ended December 31, 2015. The following assumptions were incorporated:

    Black Scholes     Monte Carlo  
    March 31,     December 31,  
    2016     2015  
Risk-free interest rate   0.66%     0.92%  
Expected volatility   60%     60%  
Expected term (years)   1.42     1.67  
Expected dividend yield   0%     0%  

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively:

    March 31, 2016        
    Fair Value Measurements        
    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total Fair Value  
Liabilities                        
Warrant liabilities (see Note 10) $  -    $     $   358,194   $  358,194  

    December 31, 2015        
    Fair Value Measurements        
    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total Fair Value  
Liabilities                        
Warrant liabilities (see Note 10) $  -   $     $   395,217   $  395,217  

16


The table below reflects the components effecting the change in fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2016:

    Level 3 Assets and Liabilities        
    For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016        
                Change in        
    January 1,           Fair Value     March 31,  
    2016     Settlements     gain     2016  
Liabilities:                        
Warrant liabilities (see Note 10) $  395,217   $  -   $     (37,023 ) $                  358,194  

On March 28, 2016, the Company issued common stock and warrant for the purchase of the Company’s unregistered shares to SSS (see Note 9). The warrant is considered an equity classified instrument and the fair value of the warrant on March 28, 2016 was $672,727, which was valued using the Monte Carlos Simulation method. The following assumptions were incorporated:

    Monte Carlo  
    March 28, 2016  
Risk-free interest rate   0.89%  
Expected volatility   60%  
Expected term (years)   2  
Expected dividend yield   0%  

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s warrant includes the risk free interest rate, expected volatility, expected term and expected dividend yield. Significant increases or decreases in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly different fair value measurement.

The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other payables as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Related Party Transactions

(a) $3.0 Million Convertible Note

On May 10, 2012, the Company’s then–Executive Chairman and Principal Executive Officer and current Vice Chairman, Mr. Shane McMahon, made a loan to the Company in the amount of $3,000,000. In consideration for the loan, the Company issued a convertible note to Mr. McMahon in the aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 (the “McMahon Note”) at a 4% interest rate computed on the basis of a 365–day year. Upon issuance, the conversion price of the McMahon Note was equal to the price per share paid for securities by investors in the most recent financing (as of the date of conversion) of equity or equity-linked securities of the Company.

Effective on January 31, 2014, the Company and Mr. McMahon entered into an amendment pursuant to which the McMahon Note is, at Mr. McMahon’s option, payable on demand or convertible on demand into shares of Series E Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series E Preferred Stock”) at a conversion price of $1.75, until December 31, 2015. As a result, in 2014, the Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature discount calculated as the difference between the fair value of the common stock at the commitment date for the Series E Preferred Stock investment and the effective conversion price and recognized a beneficial conversion feature of approximately $2,126,000 as interest expense and additional paid-in capital since the note was payable upon demand.

Effective December 30, 2014, the Company and Mr. McMahon entered into another amendment pursuant to which the maturity date of the McMahon Note was extended to December 31, 2016. The McMahon Note remains payable on demand or convertible on demand into shares of Series E Preferred Stock at a conversion price of $1.75 at Mr. McMahon’s option.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded interest expense of $30,000 and $30,000 related to the Note.

(b) Revenue and Accounts Receivable

In March 2015, Zhong Hai Video entered into an agreement with C Media Limited (“C Media”), a beneficial owner of more than 5% of our capital stock and controlled by our director, Xuesong Song, to provide video content services via C Media’s proprietary railway Wi-Fi service platform. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, total revenue recognized amounted to nil and $182,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2016, total accounts receivable due from C Media amounted to $93,000.

17


(c) Cost of Revenue

Hua Cheng, the minority shareholder of Zhong Hai Video, charged us licensed content fees of approximately $56,000 and $39,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of March 31, 2016, total accrued license content fees due to Hua Cheng amounted to $75,000.

9.

SSS Agreements

     

On November 23, 2015, the Company entered into a series of agreements for a strategic investment by SSS, a PRC company in the media and entertainment industry that is controlled by our Chairman, Bruno Wu. The strategic investment by SSS included a private placement of equity securities of the Company, a content licensing agreement and the potential for Tianjin Enternet Network Technology Limited (“Tianjin Enternet”), an affiliate of SSS, to earn additional shares of the Company’s common stock contingent on the performance of a to-be formed subsidiary, Tianjin Sevenstarflix Network Technology Limited (“SSF”). SSF intends to provide a branded pay content service, consumer payments and behavior data analysis service, customer management and data-based service and mobile social TV-based customer management service.

     

On December 21, 2015, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Amended SSS Purchase Agreement”) and a Revised Content License Agreement (the “Revised Content Agreement”) with SSS which amended certain terms of the original agreements dated November 23, 2015. In addition, the Company also entered into an Amended and Restated Share Purchase Agreement (the “Amended Tianjin Agreement”) with Tianjin Enternet.

     
(a) Amended SSS Purchase Agreement
     

On March 28, 2016, pursuant to the Amended SSS Purchase Agreement, the Company sold, and SSS purchased, 4,545,455 shares of the Company’s common stock for a purchase price of $2.20 per share, or an aggregate of $10.0 million. In addition, SSS received a two-year warrant to acquire an additional 1,818,182 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per share (the “SSS Warrant”). Until receipt of necessary shareholder approvals, the SSS Warrant may not be exercised to the extent that such exercise would result in SSS and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

     

Since the SSS Warrant does not embody any future obligation for the Company to repurchase its own shares, is indexed to the Company’s own stock, may only be settled by the physical delivery of shares and no conditions exist in which net cash settlement could be forced upon the Company by SSS or in any other circumstances, the SSS Warrant is considered an equity classified instrument. The investment proceeds of $10.0 million, net of issuance cost of approximately $443,000, was allocated to common stock and SSS Warrant based on their relative fair value as of March 28, 2016 of approximately $8,227,000 and $673,000, respectively. Accordingly, the Company recorded approximately $722,000 in additional paid-in capital for the SSS Warrant.

     
(b) Revised Content Agreement
     

On March 28, 2016, pursuant to the Amended SSS Purchase Agreement, SSS granted the Company non-exclusive royalty-free distribution rights for certain video content value at approximately $29.1 million in exchange for a convertible promissory note (the “SSS Note”). The SSS Note has a stated principal amount of approximately $17,718,000, matures on May 21, 2016 and bears interest at the rate of 0.56% per annum. Immediately upon the receipt of the required shareholder approval to allow SSS to beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, the SSS Note is automatically converted into 9,208,860 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock.

     

In connection with the issuance of the SSS Note, the Company recorded debt issuance costs of approximately $131,000 which is to be amortized over the period of the SSS Note’s maturity date, of which approximately $7,000 was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

     

The Company measured the effective conversion price of the SSS Note on March 28, 2016 and compared it to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on that date. As the effective conversion price of the SSS Note of $1.92 exceeded the fair value of the Company’s common stock, no beneficial conversion feature was recognized.

     

On May 12, 2016, the Company and SSS entered into an amendment agreement to extend the maturity date of the SSS Note to July 31, 2016 (see Note 17(e)).

18



 
  (c) Amended Tianjin Agreement
   

Pursuant to the Amended Tianjin Agreement dated December 21, 2015, Tianjin Enternet agreed to grant 100% of the equity ownership of SSF, a newly-formed subsidiary of Tianjin Enternet, to the Company. Contingent on the performance of SSF, Tianjin will receive unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock over three years, with the exact number not exceeding 5.0 million shares, provided the earn- out provisions for each of the 2016, 2017 and 2018 annual periods (the “Earn-Out Share Award”) are achieved. The earn-out provision for 2016, 2017 and 2018 are either 50.0 million homes/users passed or $4.0 million net income, 100.0 million homes/users Passed or $6.0 million net income and 150.0 million homes/users passed or $8.0 million net income, respectively.

 

If the Company is unable to obtain the required shareholder approval to allow SSS to beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock by the time of settlement of the Earn-Out Share Award, the Company shall be obligated to issue a convertible promissory note to Tianjin Enternet with the principal amount equal to 5,000,000 shares multiplied by the Applicable Stock Price as defined in the Amended Tianjin Agreement. This convertible promissory note shall bear interest at 0.56% per annum and be automatically converted into the Company’s common stock once the necessary shareholder approval for SSS to beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock is received.

 

On April 5, 2016, YOD WFOE entered into VIE agreements with SSF and its legal shareholders in order to comply with PRC regulatory requirements on certain industries. SSF is 99% owned by Lan Yang, the spouse of Bruno Zheng Wu, the Company’s Chairman, and 1% owned by Yun Zhu, a Vice President of YOD. By virtue of these VIE agreements, YOD WFOE obtained financial controlling interest in SSF, including the power to direct the activities of SSF, and is therefore the primary beneficiary of SSF. As the control of SSF was transferred to YOD WFOE through both the VIE agreements and physical handover of company documents on April 5, 2016, the transaction was determined to be completed on that date.

 

At the time YOD WFOE obtained control over SSF, SSF had no assets, liabilities, employees or operating activities, nor did it hold any licenses, trade names or other intellectual properties. The Company also did not receive any assets, employees, contracts, sales or distribution systems or intellectual property from Tianjin Enternet in connection with the transaction. Since the acquisition of SSF did not include any input or processes, as defined under ASC 805-10-20, the transaction was not considered a business combination under ASC 805. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition of SSF as an asset acquisition.

Warrant Liabilities

 

In connection with our August 30, 2012 private financing, we issued investors and a broker warrants to acquire 977,063 shares of the Company’s common stock. In accordance with FASB ASC 815-40-15-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock , the warrants have been accounted as derivative liabilities to be re- measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. On August 30, 2012, such warrants were valued at $1,525,000 utilizing a valuation model and were initially recorded as a liability. The warrants are revalued at each year end based on the Monte Carlo valuation.

 

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the warrant liability was re-valued as disclosed in Note 7, and recorded at its current fair value of approximately $358,000 and $395,000, respectively, as determined by the Company, resulting in a gain of approximately $37,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. There were no warrants exercised during three months ended March 31, 2016.

Share-Based Payments

 

 

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had 1,722,325 options and 2,191,847 warrants outstanding to purchase shares of our common stock.

 

 

(a) Stock Options

 

The Company awards common stock and stock options to employees and directors as compensation for their services, and accounts for its stock option awards to employees and directors pursuant to the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation . The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton valuation model. The Company recognizes the fair value of each option as compensation expense ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share attributable to YOU On Demand shareholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to YOU On Demand shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the applicable period. Diluted net loss per share equals basic net loss per share because the effect of securities convertible into common shares is anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the number of securities convertible or exercisable into common shares but not included in diluted loss per common share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive consists of the following:

Income Taxes

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $27.4 million of the U.S domestic cumulative tax loss carryforwards and approximately $15.4 million of the foreign cumulative tax loss carryforwards, which may be available to reduce future income tax liabilities in certain jurisdictions. These U.S. and foreign tax loss carryforwards will expire beginning year 2028 through 2036 and year 2017 to year 2021, respectively. We have established a 100% valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets due to our history of pre-tax losses and the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable. The valuation allowance increased approximately $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2016, there are no unrecorded tax benefits which would impact our financial position or our results of operations.

14.

Contingencies and Commitments

(a) Severance Commitment

The Company has employment agreements with certain employees that provide severance payments upon termination of employment under certain circumstances, as defined in the applicable agreements.

(d) Lawsuits and Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. As of March 31, 2016, there are no such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

(e) Acquisition of Property Commitment

15.

Concentration, Credit and Other Risks

(a) PRC Regulations

The PRC market in which the Company operates poses certain macro-economic and regulatory risks and uncertainties. These uncertainties extend to the ability of the Company to conduct wireless telecommunication services through contractual arrangements in the PRC since the industry remains highly regulated. The Company conducts all of its operations in China through Zhong Hai Video, which the Company controls as a result of a series of contractual arrangements entered among YOD WFOE, Sinotop Beijing as the parent company of Zhong Hai Video and the legal shareholders of Sinotop Beijing. The Company believes that these contractual arrangements are in compliance with PRC law and are legally enforceable. If Sinotop Beijing or its legal shareholders fail to perform the obligations under the contractual arrangements or any dispute relating to these contracts remains unresolved, YOD WFOE or YOD HK can enforce its rights under the VIE contracts through PRC law and courts. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. In particular, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws, rules and regulations involve uncertainties. If YOD WFOE had direct ownership of Sinotop Beijing, it would be able to exercise its rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the board of directors of Sinotop Beijing, which in turn could effect changes at the management level, subject to any applicable fiduciary obligations. However, under the current contractual arrangements, the Company relies on Sinotop Beijing and its legal shareholder to perform their contractual obligations to exercise effective control. The Company also gives no assurance that PRC government authorities will not take a view in the future that is contrary to the opinion of the Company. If the current ownership structure of the Company and its contractual arrangements with the VIEs and their equity holders were found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws or regulations, the Company's ability to conduct its business could be impacted and the Company may be required to restructure its ownership structure and operations in the PRC to comply with the changes in the PRC laws which may result in deconsolidation of the VIEs.

22


In addition, the telecommunications, information and media industries remain highly regulated. Restrictions are currently in place and are unclear with respect to which segments of these industries foreign owned entities, like YOD WFOE, may operate. The PRC government may issue from time to time new laws or new interpretations on existing laws to regulate areas such as telecommunications, information and media, some of which are not published on a timely basis or may have retroactive effect. For example, there is substantial uncertainty regarding the Draft Foreign Investment Law, including, among others, what the actual content of the law will be as well as the adoption and effective date of the final form of the law. Administrative and court proceedings in China may also be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. While such uncertainty exists, the Company cannot assure that the new laws, when it is adopted and becomes effective, and potential related administrative proceedings will not have a material and adverse effect on the Company's ability to control the affiliated entities through the contractual arrangements. Regulatory risk also encompasses the interpretation by the tax authorities of current tax laws, and the Company’s legal structure and scope of operations in the PRC, which could be subject to further restrictions resulting in limitations on the Company’s ability to conduct business in the PRC.

(b) Major Customers

The Company relies on agreements with distribution partners, including digital cable operators, IPTV operators, OTT streaming operators and mobile smartphone manufacturers and operators, during the course of its business. A distribution partner that individually generates more than 10% of the Company’s revenue is considered a major customer.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, two customers individually accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue. Four customers individually accounted for 10% of the Company’s net accounts receivables as of March 31, 2016.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, four customers individually accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue. Four customers individually accounted for 10% of the Company’s net accounts receivables as of March 31, 2015.

(c) Major Suppliers

The Company relies on agreements with studio content partners to acquire video contents. A content partner that accounts for more than 10% of the Company’s cost of revenues is considered a major supplier.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, four suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s cost of revenues. Two suppliers individually accounted for 10% of the Company’s accrued license content fees as of March 31, 2016.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, four suppliers individually accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s cost of revenues. Two suppliers individually accounted for 10% of the Company’s accrued license content fees as of March 31, 2015.

(d) Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash and accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company’s cash was held by financial institutions located in the PRC, Hong Kong and the United States that management believes have acceptable credit. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are mainly derived from revenues from the Company’s VOD content distribution partners. The risk with respect to accounts receivable is mitigated by regular credit evaluations that the Company performs on its distribution partners and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

(e) Foreign Currency Risks

A majority of the Company’s operating transactions are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities is denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The value of the RMB is subject to changes in the central government policies and to international economic and political developments. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by laws to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to complete the remittance.

Cash consist of cash on hand and demand deposits at banks, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal.

Demand deposits maintained at banks consist of the following:

23



 

 

  March 31,     December 31,  
 

 

  2016     2015  
 

RMB denominated bank deposits with financial institutions in the PRC

$  457,704     1,076,430  
 

US dollar denominated bank deposits with a financial institutions in the PRC

$  2,318,379     2,613,834  
 

US dollar denominated bank deposits with financial institutions in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“HK SAR”)

$  9,234,058     23,460  
 

US dollar denominated bank deposits with financial institutions in The United States of America (“USA”)

$  24,132     53,231  
 

US dollar denominated bank deposits with financial institutions in Cayman Islands (“Cayman”)

$  157     99  
 

RMB restricted cash denominated bank deposits with financial institutions in the PRC

$  -     2,994,364  

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 deposits of $296,636 and $241,807 were insured, respectively. To limit exposure to credit risk relating to bank deposits, the Company primarily places bank deposits only with large financial institutions in the PRC, HK SAR, USA and Cayman with acceptable credit rating.

16.

Defined Contribution Plan

During 2011, the Company began sponsoring a 401(k) defined contribution plan ("401(k) Plan") that provides for a 100% employer matching contribution of the first 3% and a 50% employer matching contribution of each additional percent contributed by an employee up to 5% of each employee’s pay. Employees become fully vested in employer matching contributions after six months of employment. Company 401(k) matching contributions were approximately $1,000 and $5,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Subsequent Event


  (a)

In order to comply with PRC regulatory requirements, on April 5, 2016, YOD WFOE entered into variable interest entity agreements with SSF and its nominee shareholders pursuant to the Amended Tianjin Agreement dated December 21, 2015 (see Note 9 (c)).

     
  (b)

On April 13, 2016, the Company entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Agreement (the “Frequency SPA”) with Frequency Networks, Inc.

In a subsequent closing on April 28, 2016, the Company purchased an additional 2,855,424 shares of Frequency Preferred Stock for a total cash investment of $1.0 million.

The Frequency Preferred Stock is entitled to non-cumulative dividends at the rate of $0.02548 per share per annum, declared at the discretion of Frequency’s board of directors. The Frequency Preferred Stock is also convertible into shares of Frequency common stock at the Company’s election any time after issuance on a 1:1 basis, subject to certain adjustment. Holders of the Frequency Preferred Stock may also vote on an as-converted basis and the holders of the outstanding Frequency Preferred Stock, as a class, have the right to elect one member of the board of directors of Frequency. Each share of Frequency Preferred Stock also has a liquidation preference of $0.42467 per share, plus any declared but unpaid dividends.

  (c)

On April 13, 2016, simultaneous with the Frequency SPA, the Company and Frequency also entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Frequency JV Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company and Frequency have agreed to form a new joint-venture company (the “JVC”) to, among other things, launch Frequency in certain parts of Asia, undertake certain third party integrations and create over-the-top packages and digital networks that will aggregate both parties’ licensed content into branded, genre-specific channels.

The JVC will have exclusive distribution rights for such channels and content in certain territories, including Singapore, Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and China, including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. The equity ownership of the JVC will be 49% owned by Frequency and 51% owned by the Company. Frequency’s initial contribution to the JVC shall be exclusive use of its platform and licensed content in the aforementioned territories and the Company shall contribute certain licensed content, sales and marketing, and operating capital, as determined by the Company. As of the date of this report, the JVC has yet to be established.

  (d)

On April 13, 2016, SSF entered into a Game Right Assignment Agreement with SSS for the acquisition of certain game IP rights (the “Game IP Rights”) for cash based on total fair value of the Game IP Rights, which was determined to be approximately $2.7 million (RMB18 million). On April 15, 2016, SSF entered into a Capital Increase Agreement with Nanjing Tops Game Co., Ltd. (“Topsgame”) and its shareholders whereby SSF transferred the Game IP Rights to Topsgame in exchange for 13% of Topsgame’s equity ownership. Topsgame is a fast-growing PRC company that specializes in the independent development and operation of online, stand-alone and other games as well as the distribution of domestic and overseas games. The investment was part of the Company’s strategy to enter into the gaming industry.

     
  (e)

On May 12, 2016, the Company and SSS entered into Amendment No. 1 to the SSS Note, pursuant to which the maturity date of the SSS Note was extended to July 31, 2016. The SSS Note remains automatically convertible into 9,208,860 shares of the Company’s common stock upon receipt of the required shareholder approval to allow SSS to beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Overview

YOU On Demand is a premium Video On Demand (“VOD”) service provider with primary operations in the People’s Republic of China (PRC”). YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 19, 2004.

YOU On Demand, through its subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities, provide enhanced premium content and integrated value-added service solutions for the delivery of VOD and paid video programming to digital cable providers, Internet Protocol Television (“IPTV”) providers, Over-the-Top (“OTT”) streaming providers, mobile manufacturers and operators, as well as direct customers. By leveraging and optimizing its existing operations, YOU On Demand has positioned itself to evolve into a mobile-driven, “new medial” platform for enterprises and consumers.

We launched our VOD service through the acquisition of YOD Hong Kong, formerly Sinotop Group Limited, on July 30, 2010. Through a series of contractual agreements, YOD WFOE, the subsidiary of YOD Hong Kong, controls Beijing Sino Top Scope Technology Co., Ltd. (“Sinotop Beijing”), a corporation established in the PRC. Sinotop Beijing is the 80% owner of Zhong Hai Shi Xun Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhong Hai Video”), though which we provide: 1) integrated value-added business-to-business (“B2B”) service solutions for the delivery of VOD and enhanced premium content for digital cable; 2) integrated value-added business-to-business-to-customer (“B2B2C”) service solutions for the delivery of enhanced premium content for IPTV and OTT providers and; 3) a direct to user, or B2C, mobile video service app. As a result of the contractual arrangements with Sinotop Beijing, we have the right to control management decisions and direct the economic activities that most significantly impact Sinotop Beijing and Zhong Hai Video, and accordingly, under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), we consolidate these operating entities in our consolidated financial statements.

Recent Development

On April 5, 2016, YOD WFOE entered into a series of contractual agreements with Tianjin Sevenstarflix Network Technology Limited (“SSF”) and its legal shareholders. SSF is a newly-formed entity which the Company plans to use to: offer a branded pay content service delivered to customers ubiquitously through all its platform partners, track and share consumer payment and other behavior data, operate a customer management and data-based service and develop mobile and social TV-based customer management portals. By virtue of the contractual agreements, YOD WFOE obtained control of the economic interests of SSF, including the power to direct the activities of SSF, and is therefore determined to be the primary beneficiary in this arrangement. Accordingly, under generally accepted accounting principles in U.S. GAAP, we consolidate SSF in our consolidated financial statements.

On April 13, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Frequency JV Agreement”) with Frequency Networks, Inc.

Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

Our ability to adapt our product and service offerings to meet consumer demands . Our expansion prospect is dependent on continued development of our product and services. The content distribution industry in China is highly competitive and dominated by large Internet companies that have more resources than us. The growth of our business will depend on whether we can develop new services and products that can offer higher quality contents, technological innovation and unique user experience.

   

Our ability to expand our subscriber base . Our business is affected by the overall size of our user base, which in turn is determined by, among other factors, (i) user experience of our service and products, (ii) our relationship with distribution platforms, such as digital cable and IPTV providers and mobile product manufacturers, (iii) expansion of our business to include increased service offerings and (iv) the expansion of our subscribers beyond smartphones to mobile tablets and other Internet-enabled mobile devices.

   

Our ability to achieve revenue growth and meet internal or external expectations of future performance . In the latter half of 2013, we shifted our focus to our core multi-platform video streaming services and our business model is still evolving. Our financial performance is affected by, among other things, our ability to come to favorable business terms with our distribution partners, manage and procure contents in a cost-effective manner and manage our operating expenses. Overall, our normalized operating expenses have been decreasing but we have also incurred certain additional costs related to our financing activities, maintaining our public company status and making staff reductions.

   

Changes in China’s economic, political or social policies or conditions . We operate in China and derive all of our revenues from sales to customers in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operation is significantly influenced by the political, social and economic policies and conditions in China. While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decade, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating telecommunication and Internet industry development by imposing certain laws and regulations concerning Internet access and distribution of video content and other information over traditional and new media platforms. Some of the laws and regulations are also relatively new and involving and their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty.

Taxation

United States

YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. is subject to United States tax. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. had no income taxable in the United States since inception.

Cayman Islands

CB Cayman was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, it is not subject to income or capital gains tax. In addition, dividend payments are not subject to withholding tax in the Cayman Islands.

Hong Kong

Our subsidiary, YOD Hong Kong, was incorporated in Hong Kong and under the current laws of Hong Kong, is subject to Profits Tax of 16.5% . No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as YOD Hong Kong has no taxable income.

The People’s Republic of China

Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law, our Chinese subsidiaries and VIEs are subject to an earned income tax of 25.0% .

Our future effective income tax rate depends on various factors, such as tax legislation, the geographic composition of our pre-tax income and non-tax deductible expenses incurred. Our management carefully monitors these legal developments to determine if there will be any change in the statutory income tax rate.

Revenues

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $1,270,000, as compared to $1,028,000 for the same period in 2015, an increase of approximately $242,000, or 24%. This revenue increase was primarily attributed to our new distribution channels on OTT platforms, the aggregate of which comprised 51% of total revenues for the first three months ended March 31, 2016. In addition, the Company has increased focus on new and existing distribution channels that allow for more in depth cooperation and bring along long-term sustainable revenue through recurring revenue sharing contracts. Revenue generated from revenue sharing accounted for 19% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues was $916,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $1,043,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease of $127,000, or 12%, was primarily due to delay in expected revenue from specific content titles which impacted our content license cost amortization pattern. Our cost of revenues is primarily comprised of content licensing fees. Our content licensing agreements with production companies incorporate minimum guarantee payment levels. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, our revenues did not exceed the level of minimum guarantees to cause additional costs to be incurred.

Gross loss

Our gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $354,000, as compared to gross loss of $15,000 during the same period in 2015. The increase in gross profit of approximately $369,000 was primarily due to increase in revenues from new and existing distribution channels.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016, decreased approximately $283,000, to $2,165,000, as compared to $2,448,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Salaries and personnel costs are the primary components of selling, general and administrative expenses, accounting for 33% and 35% of our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For the first quarter of 2016, salaries and personnel costs totaled $709,000, a decrease of $146,000, or 17%, as compared to $855,000 for the same period of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to staff reductions made as part of business transformation and re-alignment strategy, which will be our primary focus for the 2016 fiscal year.

The other major components of our selling, general and administrative expenses include marketing and promotion expenses, outsourced technology costs, rent and severance. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, these costs totaled $1,456,000, a net decrease of $137,000, or 9%, as compared to $1,593,000 for the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily attributed to decrease in stock-based compensation expenses, technology outsourcing costs and other staff-related costs.

Professional fees

Professional fees are generally related to public company reporting and governance expenses. Our costs for professional fees increased $78,000, or 27%, to $367,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $289,000 for the same period in 2015. The increase in professional fees was related to legal, audit and advisory expenses incurred in connection with our investment and financing activities.

Depreciation and amortization

Our depreciation and amortization expense increased by $7,000, or 8%, to $97,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $90,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was mainly due to amortization of costs related to development of our mobile app starting in late 2015.

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities

Certain of our warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities and re-measured at the end of every reporting period and upon settlement, with the change in value reported in the statement of operations. We reported a gain of $37,000 and a loss of $15,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The changes are primarily due to fluctuation in our closing stock price.

28


Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest

Hua Cheng has a 20% non-controlling interest in Zhong Hai Video and as such we allocate 20% of the operating loss of Zhong Hai Video to Hua Cheng. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, $138,000 of our operating loss from Zhong Hai Video was allocated to Hua Cheng. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, operating loss attributable to non-controlling interest was $120,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had cash of approximately $12,035,000 and negative working capital of approximately $10,026,000. In addition, we had accumulated deficits of approximately $88.6 million and $81.2 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, due to recurring losses since our inception. Subsequent to March 31, 2016, we also entered into asset acquisition and investment agreements, the total of which require aggregate cash commitments from us of approximately $9.9 million. These factors could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We continue to rely on debt and equity financing to pay for ongoing operating expenses and execution of our business plan. On March 28, 2016, we completed a common stock financing for $10.0 million, and we also have the ability to raise funds through various methods by either issuing debt or equity instruments. In addition, once necessary shareholder approvals are received to allow SSS to beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, our $17.7 million convertible promissory note issued to SSS shall be automatically converted into the Company’s common stock.

The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The following table provides a summary of our net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

$  12,035,000   $  8,395,000  

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to 2015 primarily due to decrease in net loss and increase in accounts receivable collection during the three months ended March 31, 2016. This decrease was partially offset by increase in payments of accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was due to investment proceeds of $10,000,000 received from the sales of 4,545,455 shares of the Company’s common stock and issuance of a two-year warrant to acquire an additional 1,818,182 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per share to SSS.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have had an effect on our business and we expect that inflation or changing prices could materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. Our management will closely monitor the price change and make efforts to maintain effective cost control in operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

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 or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.

29


Seasonality

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates, and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Variable Interest Entities

We account for entities qualifying as variable interest entities (VIEs) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Boards (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation . For our consolidated VIEs, management has made evaluations of the relationships between our VIEs and the economic benefit flow of contractual arrangement with VIEs. In connection with such evaluation, management also took into account the fact that, as a result of such contractual arrangements, we control the legal shareholders’ voting interests and have power of attorney in the VIEs, and therefore we are able to direct all business activities of the VIEs. As a result of such evaluation, management concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of our consolidated VIEs.

We have consulted our PRC legal counsel in assessing our ability to control our PRC VIEs. Any changes in PRC laws and regulations that affect our ability to control our PRC VIEs may preclude us from consolidating these companies in the future.

Revenue Recognition

When persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured, we recognize revenue as services are performed. For certain contracts that involve sub-licensing content within the specified license period, revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Subtopic 926-605, Entertainment-Films - Revenue Recognition, whereby revenue is recognized upon delivery of films when the arrangement includes a nonrefundable minimum guarantee, delivery is complete and we have no substantive future obligations to provide future additional services. Payments received from customers for the performance of future services are recognized as deferred revenue, and subsequently recognized as revenue in the period that the service obligations are completed.

In accordance with ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition – Multiple Element Arrangements, contracts with multiple element deliverables are separated into individual units for accounting purposes when the unit determined to have standalone value to the customer. Since the contract price is for all deliverables, we allocated the arrangement consideration to all deliverables at the inception of the arrangement based on their relative selling price. We use (a) vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price, if it exists, or, (b) the management’s best estimate of the selling price for that deliverable to determine the relative selling price of each individual unit.

The recognition of revenue involves certain judgments and changes in our assumptions, judgments or estimations may have a material impact on the amount and timing of our revenue recognition.

Licensed Content

We obtain content through content licensing agreements with studios and distributors. We recognize licensed content when the license fee and the specified content titles are known or reasonably determinable. Prepaid license fees are classified as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets as licensed content and accrued license content fees payable are classified as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

We amortize licensed content in cost of revenues over the contents contractual window of availability based on the expected revenue derived from the licensed content, beginning with the month of first availability, such that our revenues bear a representative amount of the cost of the licensed content. We review factors that impact the amortization of licensed content on a regular basis, including factors that may bear direct impact on expected revenue from specific content titles. We estimate expected revenue by reviewing relevant factors, including marketing considerations, programming efforts, relationship with our channel partners, expected customer renewals and content offered by other distributors on the same platform. Changes in our expected revenue from licensed content could have a significant impact on our amortization pattern.

30


Intangible Assets and Goodwill

We account for intangible assets and goodwill, in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other . ASC 350 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be evaluated for impairment at least annually. ASC 350 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment whenever events indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 350, goodwill is allocated to reporting units, which are either the operating segment or one reporting level below the operating segment. On an annual basis, we review goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances makes it more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we determine that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill is further tested for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value of its reporting units, determined using externally quoted prices (if available) or a discounted cash flow model and, when deemed necessary, a market approach.

Application of goodwill impairment tests requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets, liabilities and goodwill to reporting units and determination of fair value of each reporting unit. Judgment applied when performing the qualitative analysis includes consideration of macroeconomic, industry and market conditions, overall financial performance of the reporting unit, composition, personnel or strategy changes affecting the reporting unit and recoverability of asset groups within a reporting unit. Judgments applied when performing the quantitative analysis includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and making other assumptions. Changes in these judgments, estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, ‘ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance supersedes current guidance on revenue recognition in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition . In addition, there are disclosure requirements related to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue recognition. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. For public business entities that follow U.S. GAAP, the deferral results in the new revenue standard are being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest – Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30). The guidance simplifies presentation of debt issuance costs and require that debt issuance costs related to recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carry amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company adopted this amendment for the interim period of March 31, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have any impact on prior period financial statements as there was no debt issued by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2015.

On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, C ompensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which relates to the accounting for employee share-based payments. This standard addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on our financial position, statement of operations or cash flow.

(C)     if neither (A) nor (B) is applicable, the fair market value of a Share shall be at the highest price per share which the Company could obtain on the date of calculation from a willing buyer (not a current employee or director) for a Share sold by the Company, from authorized but unissued shares, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

2


(d)     Delivery to Holder . As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part, and in any event within five (5) days thereafter, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Registered Holder, or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:

      (i)      a certificate or certificates for the number of Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled, and

      (ii)      in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of Shares equal (without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise as provided in Section 2(a) or 2(c) above.

3.      Adjustments .

(a)      Redemption or Conversion of Preferred Stock . If all of the Series A Preferred Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable (the “ Warrant Stock ”) is redeemed or converted into shares of Common Stock, then this Warrant shall automatically become exercisable for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the shares of Warrant Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such event, and the Exercise Price shall be automatically adjusted to equal the number obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares of Warrant Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such redemption or conversion, by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such redemption or conversion.

(b)      Stock Splits and Dividends . If the outstanding shares of the Warrant Stock (or Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in securities of the Company shall be paid in respect of shares of Warrant Stock (or Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof), the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If the outstanding shares of Warrant Stock (or Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price in accordance with this Section 3, the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.

(c)      Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In the event of any reorganization or reclassification of the securities of Company (other than a change in par value or from no par value to par value, or from par value to no par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another entity, or in the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another person or entity, at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant, upon subsequent exercise of this Warrant the Registered Holder shall have the right to receive the same kind and number of shares of common stock and other securities, cash or other property as would have been distributed to the Registered Holder upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger had the Registered Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or asset sale appropriately adjusted for any subsequent event described in this Section 3. The Registered Holder shall pay upon such exercise the Exercise Price that otherwise would have been payable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant. If any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger results in a cash distribution in excess of the then applicable Exercise Price, the holder may, at the Registered Holder’s option, exercise this Warrant under Section 2(c) of this Warrant. If any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger results in a cash distribution equal to or less than the then applicable Exercise Price (an “ Out-of-the-Money Change of Control ”), the Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall automatically terminate upon the closing of such Out of the Money Change of Control. In the event of any such reorganization, merger or consolidation (other than an Out-of-the-Money Change of Control), the corporation formed by such consolidation or merger or the corporation which shall have acquired the assets of the Company shall execute and deliver a supplement hereto to the foregoing effect, which supplement shall also provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Warrant.

3


(d)     Adjustment Certificate . When any adjustment is required to be made in the number of Shares or the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth (i) a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price after such adjustment and (iii) the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment.

(e)     Acknowledgement . In order to avoid doubt, it is acknowledged that, for so long as this Warrant is exercisable for Warrant Stock, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Stock of the Company which occur prior to the exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion as a result of a dilutive issuance of capital stock.

4.      Transfers .

(a)     Unregistered Security . Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant, the Shares and the Common Stock of the Company have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, any Shares issued upon its exercise or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Shares in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act as to this Warrant, such Shares or such Common Stock and registration or qualification of this Warrant, such Shares or such Common Stock under any applicable U.S. federal or state securities law then in effect, or (ii) an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration and qualification are not required. Each certificate or other instrument for Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall bear a legend substantially to the foregoing effect.

(b)     Transferability . Except as expressly provided in this Warrant, this Warrant shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered, hypothecated, conveyed in trust, gifted, transferred by bequest, devise or descent, or otherwise disposed of (collectively, a “ Transfer ”); provided, however , that the Registered Holder may Transfer this Warrant to an Affiliate only upon prior written notice to the Company and upon a properly executed assignment (in the form of Exhibit B hereto) delivered to the principal office of the Company, and, provided further that the permitted transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Company. For purposes of this Warrant, “ Affiliate ” means, with respect to Registered Holder, any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company, association or other entity (a “ Person ”) who, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such Person, including without limitation any general partner, managing member, officer or director of such Person or any venture capital fund now or hereafter existing that is controlled by one or more general partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company with, such Person. Any purported Transfer by the Registered Holder of this Warrant in violation of this Section 4 hereof shall be voidable by the Company. The Company need not register a transfer of legended Warrant stock, and may also instruct its transfer agent not to register the transfer of the Warrant stock, unless the conditions specified in each of the foregoing legends are satisfied.

4


(c)     Warrant Register . The Company will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Registered Holders of the Warrants. Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided , however , that if this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be required to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any Registered Holder may change such Registered Holder’s address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.

5.      No Impairment . The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment.

6.     Stock Fully Paid . The Company covenants and agrees to take all actions within its control to assure that all Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive rights of any stockholder and free of all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company will take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary that are within its control to assure that such Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect a registration under Federal or State securities laws with respect to such exercise.

7.      Early Termination . In the event of, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, an IPO, the Company shall provide to the registered Holder forty-five (45) days advance written notice of such IPO and this Warrant shall be deemed exercised pursuant to Section 2(c) immediately prior to the date such IPO is closed. The Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall automatically terminate upon the closing of an Out-of-the-Money Change of Control.

8.      Notices of Certain Transactions . In case:

(a)     the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Preferred Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or

(b)     of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or

5


(c)     of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, or

(d)     of any redemption of the Warrant Stock or mandatory conversion of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock of the Company,

then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, redemption or conversion is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Warrant Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, redemption or conversion) are to be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

9.     Reservation of Stock . The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

10.      Exchange of Warrants . Upon the surrender by the Registered Holder of any Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Registered Holder, at the Company’s expense, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such Registered Holder or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of Shares called for on the face or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so surrendered.

11.      Replacement of Warrants . Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

12.      Mailing of Notices . Any notice required or permitted pursuant hereto shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

13.      No Rights or Liabilities as Stockholder . Until the exercise of this Warrant, the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any rights, or be subject to any liability, by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Shares.

14.      No Fractional Shares . No fractional Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of any fractional Shares which would otherwise be issuable, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of one Share on the date of exercise, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

15.      Amendment or Waiver . Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Registered Holder. Any such amendment or waiver shall be enforceable against the Registered Holder, and the Company.

3.     Representations and Warranties of the Investors . Each Investor, severally and not jointly, hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:

3.1 Authorization . Such Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and such agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies, and (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Investors’ Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

This Agreement is made with such Investor in reliance in part upon such Investor’s representation to the Company, which by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms, that the Shares to be received by such Investor and the Conversion Shares (collectively, the “ Securities ”) will be acquired for investment for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, such Investor further represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.

3.3    Disclosure of Information . Such Investor believes it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Shares.

In the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Securities or an available exemption from registration under the Act, the Shares (and any Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) must be held indefinitely.

It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances.

(c)     Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by an Investor that is (i) a partnership to an affiliate, a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift, will or intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to the siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse; (ii) a corporation, to its stockholders in accordance with their interest in the corporation; (iii) a limited liability company, to its members or former members in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company; (iv) a venture fund to affiliated funds; or (v) to the Investor’s family member or trust for the benefit of the individual Investor, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder.

11

Each Investor agrees that no Investor nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or employees of any Investor shall be liable to any other Investor for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities.

4.       California Commissioner of Corporations . THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF SUCH SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION FOR SUCH SECURITIES PRIOR TO SUCH QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE.
