The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “expect,” “strive,” “future,” “intend” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors set forth under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” and elsewhere in this report. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ include, without limitation, legal disputes or arbitration proceedings, history of operating losses, general economic conditions, competition, changing consumer preferences, acquisitions, new initiatives undertaken by us, loss of key personnel, our founder’s control of us, brand reputation, difficulty obtaining financing, dependence on third-party suppliers, reliance on communication networks, reliance on security and information systems, the effect of government regulation, legal liability for website content, fluctuations in quarterly operating results, changing reporting requirements, future results which vary from historical results, reduced opportunities of scale, and other risks and uncertainties included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

We have prepared our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, the unaudited interim condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2016, the interim results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. These interim statements have not been audited. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements, including the notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Table of Contents

Notes to interim condensed consolidated financial statements

References in this report to “we”, “us”, “our” or “Gaia” refer to Gaia, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless we indicate otherwise.

1. Organization, Nature of Operations, and Principles of Consolidation

Gaia, Inc. (formerly known as Gaiam, Inc.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on July 7, 1988. We operate a global digital video subscription service and on-line community which caters to a unique and underserved subscriber base. Our digital content is available to our subscribers on most Internet connected devices anytime, anywhere commercial free. The subscription also allows our subscribers to download and view files in the library without being actively connected to the internet. Through our online Gaia subscription service, our customers have unlimited access to a vast library of inspiring films, personal growth related content, cutting edge documentaries, interviews, yoga classes, and more – 90% of which is exclusively available to our subscribers for digital streaming.

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and they include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods disclosed in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results.

Divestiture of the Brand Business, Management Changes, Tender Offer, and Name Change

On May 4, 2016 and July 1, 2016, we completed the sale of the components of our former Gaiam Brand segment in two separate transactions, which previously represented the majority of our operating revenues and expenses. The terms and implications of the sale are discussed in Note 2. Our current business which remains after the sale primarily consists of our former Gaia segment, and we now have only one business segment. In connection with the sale, we appointed new executive officers, including Jirka Rysavy as Chief Executive Officer and Paul Tarell as Chief Financial Officer. We used a portion of the proceeds from the sale to conduct a tender offer to purchase 9,636,848 shares of our Class A common stock and 842,114 stock options at $7.75 per share. On July 14, 2016, we changed our name from Gaiam, Inc. to Gaia, Inc.

Use of Estimates and Reclassifications

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and disclosures. Although we base these estimates on our best knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. We have made certain reclassifications to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, Income Taxes - Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments under the new guidance require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The guidance is effective for consolidated financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Earlier application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. We adopted this guidance effective April 1, 2016, and it did not have a material impact on our reported financial position or results of operations.

2. Discontinued Operations

Sale of the Gaiam Brand Business and Natural Habitat

On May 4, 2016 we sold our 51.4% equity interest in Natural Habitat, Inc. (“Natural Habitat”), our eco-travel subsidiary, in exchange for $12.85 million in cash, and recognized a gain of $10.3 million as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 10, 2016.

On July 1, 2016, we sold the assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand business in exchange for a gross purchase price of $167.0 million subject to post-closing adjustments and recognized a preliminary gain of approximately $120.8 million before taxes as disclosed in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed May 10, 2016 and July 8, 2016. Our Gaiam Brand business previously constituted the majority of our consolidated revenues and expenses, and consisted of Gaiam branded yoga, fitness and wellness consumer products, and content. The assets and liabilities, operating results and cash flows of our Gaiam Brand business are classified as held-for-sale as of June 30, 2016.

The Gaiam Brand business and our interest in our eco-travel subsidiary constituted all the assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand segment.

Discontinued Operations

The assets and liabilities, operating results, and cash flows of our Gaiam Brand business and Natural Habitat are presented as discontinued operations, separate from our continuing operations, for all periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes, unless otherwise indicated.

Discontinued operating results for 2015 also include legal expenses associated with the sale of our DVD distribution business to Cinedigm. We were involved in legal disputes with Cinedigm associated with the sale, which were settled during 2015. The assets and liabilities in the following table as of December 31, 2015 include the Natural Habitat business, and the assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2016 consist of the Gaiam Brand business only.

Prior to its divestiture in May 2016, Natural Habitat used derivative instruments to manage a portion of its exposure to changes in currency exchange rates due to payments made to foreign tour operators. The cash flow effects of these derivative contracts during 2016 are included in Net cash used in operating activities—discontinued operations in the Statements of Cash Flows. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on currency derivatives without hedge accounting designation are included in Income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the accompanying statements of operations. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 the gain recognized was $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. The asset related to the fair value of the hedging instrument was included in Current assets of discontinued operations in the accompanying balance sheet prior to the sale.

3. Credit Facility

In 2015 Boulder Road LLC, a subsidiary of Gaia, entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with a bank in the amount of $5.5 million. The note bears interest at the prime rate plus 3.25%, is guaranteed by us, and is secured by a Deed of Trust filed against the real property on which our principal offices are located. The value of our principal offices is in excess of the amount of the line of credit. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, Boulder Road LLC drew and repaid $3.0 million on the line of credit. No amounts were outstanding under the line of credit as of June 30, 2016.

4. Equity

During the first six months of 2016, we issued 11,000 shares of our Class A common stock under our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan to our independent directors, in lieu of cash compensation, for services rendered in 2016. We valued the shares issued to our independent directors at estimated fair value based on the closing price of our shares on the date the shares were issued, which by policy is the last trading day of each quarter in which the services were rendered.

In June, we issued 50,000 shares of our Class A common stock as a charitable contribution to a local organization. We valued the shares at the closing market price of our shares on the date they were issued and recorded a charitable contribution expense of $0.4 million.

During the first six months of 2016, we issued 183,000 shares of our Class A common stock with net proceeds of $1.0 million in connection with option exercises. The following is a reconciliation from December 31, 2015 to June 30, 2016 of the carrying amount of total equity, equity attributable to Gaia, Inc., and equity attributable to the noncontrolling interest.

Tender Offer

Effective July 1, 2016, we used a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Gaiam Brand business to conduct a tender offer to purchase 9,636,848 shares of our Class A common stock and 842,114 stock options at a price of $7.75 per share. In connection with the Gaiam Brand business sale, employee stock options to purchase 189,610 shares received accelerated vesting and were repurchased in the stock option tender amounts above. Subsequent to the Gaiam Brand business sale options to purchase 194,610 shares were cancelled. As a result of the tender offer, our outstanding shares decreased significantly.

5. Share-Based Payments

During the first six months of 2016 and 2015, we extended the term of certain options granted under our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan to members of our executive team for an additional three months, and recognized $40,000 and $50,000 of associated stock compensation expense. Total share-based compensation expense is reported in corporate, general and administration expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

6. Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share excludes any dilutive effects of options. We compute basic net income (loss) per share using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We compute diluted net income (loss) per share using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. We excluded common stock equivalents of 890,000 and 985,000 from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and 939,000 and 987,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, because their effect was antidilutive.

7. Income Taxes

During 2013, we determined that a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets was necessary due to the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended December 31, 2013. Since that time, we have continued to provide a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. As income is generated in future periods, the Company expects to reverse the valuation allowance as utilization of the deferred tax assets occurs. As of June 30, 2016, our gross net operating losses were $94.6 million and $26.2 million for federal and state, respectively.

8. Segment Information

Prior to June 30, 2016, we managed our company and aggregated our operational and financial information in two reportable segments, which were aligned based on their products or services.

 

Gaia:   This segment includes our digital video streaming service. Previously known as Gaiam TV, it also includes the results of Boulder Road LLC. This segment represents our ongoing business, and the accompanying financial statements show the results of this business segment.
Gaiam Brand:   This segment included all our branded yoga, fitness, and wellness products. It also included Natural Habitat until May 4, 2016. As discussed above, we completed the sale of the remaining Gaiam Brand business on July 1, 2016. The results of operations of the Gaiam Brand segment are shown as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.

From July 1, 2016 forward, our chief operating decision maker reviews operating results on a consolidated basis and we therefore

have one reportable segment.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that we consider to be in the normal course of business. Claimed amounts against us may be substantial but may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claim or the extent of any real risk of court or arbitral awards. We record accruals for losses related to those matters against us that we consider to be probable and that can be reasonably estimated. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, it is reasonably possible that some legal proceedings may be disposed of or decided unfavorably to us and in excess of the amounts currently accrued. Based on available information, in the opinion of management, settlements, arbitration awards and final judgments, if any, which are considered probable of being rendered against us in litigation or arbitration in existence at June 30, 2016 and can be reasonably estimated are reserved against or would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

10. Subsequent Events

On February 26, 2015, our board of directors and the board of directors of our subsidiary Gaia International, Inc. (formerly known as Gaia, Inc.) approved the Long-Term Deferred Equity Plan (the “deferred equity plan”) as an incentive plan for the management of our Gaia segment. In anticipation of the previously contemplated spin-off, our board of directors and the board of directors of our subsidiary Gaia International, Inc. granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of Gaia International, Inc.’s Class A common stock under the deferred equity plan to certain of our officers and employees involved in the Gaia segment. As previously authorized by our board of directors, on July 1, 2016 in connection with the closing of the Brand Business sale, the RSU’s granted under the deferred equity plan were exchanged for 348,841 RSU’s under our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan. In connection with the exchanges, each recipient entered into an individual restricted stock unit award agreement with the following terms: (i) the recipient is entitled to receive one share of Class A common stock for each RSU upon vesting, and (ii) the RSUs will vest on March 16, 2020, provided that the recipient is still an employee or director of our company on such date. The RSUs will be automatically forfeited and of no further force and effect if either of the vesting conditions are not met.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this document. This section is designed to provide information that will assist in understanding our condensed consolidated financial statements, changes in certain items in those statements from period to period, the primary factors that caused those changes and how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview and Outlook

We operate a global digital video subscription service with over 7,000 titles which caters to a unique and underserved subscriber base. Our digital content is available to our subscribers on most Internet connected devices anytime, anywhere commercial free. The subscription also allows our subscribers to download and view files from our library without being actively connected to the internet. Through our online Gaia subscription service, our customers have unlimited access to a vast library of inspiring films, personal growth related content, cutting edge documentaries, interviews, yoga classes, and more – 90% of which is exclusively available to our subscribers for digital streaming on most Internet connected devices.

The consumption of streaming video is expanding rapidly with more and more people augmenting their use of, or replacing broadcast television and turning to, streaming video to watch their favorite content on services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu Plus, HBO Go and Gaia.

Gaia’s position in the streaming video landscape is firmly supported by its wide variety of exclusive and unique content, which provides a complementary offering to other entertainment-based streaming video services. Our original content is developed and produced in-house in our state-of-the-art production studios near Boulder, Colorado. Over 90% of our content is exclusively available for streaming to most devices that are connected to the Internet. By offering exclusive and unique content over a state-of-the-art streaming service, we believe we will be able to significantly expand our target subscriber base.

Our available content is currently focused on yoga, health and longevity, seeking truth, spiritual growth and conscious films & series. This media content is specifically targeted to a unique customer base which is interested in alternatives and supplements to the content provided by mainstream media. We have been able to grow these content options both organically through our own productions and through strategic acquisitions. In addition, through our investments in our streaming video technology and our user interface, we have been able to expand the many ways our subscription customer base can access our unique library of media titles.

Our core strategy is to grow our subscription business domestically and internationally by expanding our unique and exclusive content library, enhancing our user interface, extending our streaming service to new Internet-connected devices as they are developed and creating a conscious community built on our content.

We have reported losses from continuing operations of $7.2 million and $5.0 million for the six months ending June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

We are a Colorado corporation. Our registered, principal and executive office is located at 833 West South Boulder Road, Louisville, CO 80027-2452. Our telephone number at that address is (303) 222-3999. We maintain an Internet website at www.gaia.com. The website address has been included only as a textual reference. Our website and the information contained on that website, or connected to that website, are not incorporated by reference into this filing.

Sale of the Gaiam Brand Segment

Prior to July 1, 2016, we operated a second business segment called the Gaiam Brand segment which developed and marketed yoga and fitness accessories, apparel, and media. It also included Natural Habitat, our eco-travel business.

On May 4, 2016 we sold all our 51.4% equity interest in Natural Habitat, Inc. (“Natural Habitat”), our eco-travel subsidiary, in exchange for $12.85 million in cash, and recognized a gain of $10.3 million. On July 1, 2016, we sold the assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand business in exchange for $167.0 million subject to post-closing adjustments and recognized a preliminary gain of approximately $120.8 million before taxes. The Brand Business consisted of all the remaining assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand segment. Our Gaiam Brand business previously constituted the majority of our consolidated revenues and expenses.

The operating results of our Gaiam Brand segment are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements and discussions.

Three months ended June 30, 2016 Compared to Three months ended June 30, 2015

Net revenue . Net revenue increased $0.9 million, or 27.8%, to $4.2 million during the second quarter of 2016, compared to $3.3 million during the second quarter of 2015. Net revenue from streaming increased $1.0 million, or 39.7%, to $3.6 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $2.6 million during the second quarter of 2015. The increase in streaming revenues was primarily driven by our growth in subscribers. DVD subscription and other revenue declined $0.1 million or 16.0%, to $0.6 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2015. The decline was driven by a decline in subscribers due to a shift in focus to streaming subscribers.

Cost of goods sold . Cost of goods sold increased $0.1 million, or 8.4%, to $0.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2015. Cost of goods sold for streaming increased $0.1 million, or 10.6%, to $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $0.6 million during the second quarter of 2015 and, as a percentage of streaming revenue, decreased to 18.5% compared to 23.3% during the second quarter of 2015 due primarily to the lower cost of streaming associated with our higher volumes.

Selling and operating expenses . Selling and operating expenses increased $1.8 million, or 57.2%, to $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $3.2 million during the second quarter of 2015 and, as a percentage of net revenue, increased to 118.9% during the second quarter of 2016 from 96.7% during the second quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased marketing spending for subscriber acquisition and other one-time charges associated with the sales of the components of the Gaiam Brand segment and the previously planned spin-off.

Corporate, general and administration expenses . Corporate, general and administration expenses increased $0.1 million, or 7.9%, to $1.4 million during the second quarter of 2016 from $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2015 and, as a percentage of net revenue, decreased to 34.0% during the second quarter of 2016 from 40.2% during the second quarter of 2015. The increase was due to one-time charges associated with the separation and sale of the Gaiam Brand segment and the previously planned spin-off.

Income from discontinued operations. The operations of the Gaiam Brand business segment are included in income from discontinued operations. During the second quarter of 2016, we recognized a $10.3 million gain on the sale of Natural Habitat, which is offset by transaction costs and losses from the operation of discontinued operations of $9.7 million, compared to income from the operation of discontinued operations of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2015. On July 1, 2016 we completed the sale of the Gaiam Brand business.

Net loss. As a result of the above factors, net loss was $2.4 million, or $0.10 per share, during the second quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.05 per share, during the second quarter of 2015.

Net revenue. Net revenue increased $1.6 million, or 25.6%, to $8.0 million during the first six months of 2016, compared to $6.4 million during the first six months of 2015. Net revenue from streaming increased $1.7 million, or 33.7%, to $6.8 million during the first six months of 2016 from $5.1 million during the first six months of 2015. The increase in streaming revenues was primarily driven by our growth in subscribers from the first half of 2015. DVD subscription and other revenue declined $0.1 million or 6.8%, to $1.2 million during the first half of 2016 from $1.3 million during the first half of 2015. The decline was driven by a decline in subscribers due to a shift in focus to streaming subscribers.

Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold increased $0.1 million, or 7.9%, to $1.5 million during the first six months of 2016 from $1.4 million during the second quarter of 2015. Cost of goods sold for streaming increased $0.1 million, or 11.8%, to $1.3 million during the first six months of 2016 from $1.2 million during the first six months of 2015 and, as a percentage of streaming revenue, decreased to 19.2% compared to 23.0% during the first six months of 2015 due primarily to the lower cost of streaming per hour associated with our higher volumes.

Selling and operating expenses. Selling and operating expenses increased $3.4 million, or 44.9%, to $10.8 million during the first six months of 2016 from $7.5 million during the first half of 2015 and, as a percentage of net revenue, increased to 135.1% during the first six months of 2016 from 117.1% during the first six months of 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased marketing spending for subscriber acquisition and other one-time charges associated with the sales of the components of the Gaiam Brand segment and the previously planned spin-off.

Corporate, general and administration expenses. Corporate, general and administration expenses increased $0.5 million, or 21.5%, to $2.8 million during the first six months of 2016 from $2.3 million during the first six months of 2015 and, as a percentage of net revenue, decreased to 34.6% during the first half of 2016 from 35.8% during the first half of 2015. The increase was due to one-time charges associated with the separation and sale of the Gaiam Brand segment and the previously planned spin-off.

Loss from discontinued operations. The operations of the Gaiam Brand business segment are included in loss from discontinued operations. During the second quarter of 2016, we recognized a $10.3 million gain on the sale of Natural Habitat, which is offset by transactions costs and losses from the operation of discontinued operations of $13.2 million, compared to loss from the operation of discontinued operations of $0.0 million in the second quarter of 2015. On July 1, 2016 we completed the sale of the Gaiam Brand business.

Net loss. As a result of the above factors, net loss was $10.1 million, or $0.41 per share, during the second quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss of $5.0 million, or $0.20 per share, during the second quarter of 2015.

Seasonality

Our subscriber growth exhibits a seasonal pattern that reflects variations when consumers buy Internet-connected devices and, as a result, tend to increase their viewing, similar to those of traditional TV and cable networks. Our subscriber growth is generally greatest in the fourth and first quarter (October through March), and slowest in the May through August period. As we expand internationally, we expect regional seasonality trends to demonstrate more predictable seasonal patterns as our service offering in each market becomes more established and we have a longer history to assess such patterns.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our capital needs arise from working capital required to fund operations, capital expenditures related to acquisition and development of media content, development and marketing of our digital platforms, acquisitions of new businesses, replacements, expansions and improvements to our infrastructure, and future growth. These capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the rate of market acceptance of our product offerings, our ability to expand our customer base, the cost of ongoing upgrades to our offerings, the level of expenditures for marketing, and other factors. Additionally, we will continue to pursue opportunities to expand our media libraries, evaluate possible investments in businesses, products and technologies, and increase our marketing programs as needed. At June 30, 2016, our cash balance was $6.2 million. We estimate that our capital expenditures will total approximately $4.0 million for the remainder of 2016 which will be funded through cash flow from operations and the proceeds from the sale of the Gaiam Brand business.

Operating activities- continuing operations . Cash flow from continuing operations decreased $3.3 million during the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily due to increased operating losses during 2016, and increased payment of accounts payable.

Investing activities – continuing operations . Cash flow from investing activities – continuing operations increased $10.1 million during the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The increase is due to $11.3 million of proceeds from the sale of Natural Habitat, offset by $1.2 million of additional capital spending for media, software and equipment.

Investing activities – discontinued operations . Cash flow from investing activities – discontinued operations increased $1.2 million during the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The increase was due to reduced capital spending for our Brand Business segment.

Financing activities . Cash flow from financing activities decreased $0.2 million during the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The change between years is primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in the dividend paid to the minority interest holder of our eco-travel subsidiary in anticipation of its sale, offset by $1.2 million increase in proceeds from the issuance of stock.

We currently have an effective shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for 5,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock and to date no shares have been issued under this shelf registration statement.

In the normal course of our business, we investigate, evaluate and discuss acquisition, joint venture, minority investment, strategic relationship and other business combination opportunities in our market. For any future investment, acquisition or joint venture opportunities, we may consider using then-available liquidity, issuing equity securities or incurring additional indebtedness.

While there can be no assurances, we believe our cash on hand, cash generated from the sale of the Gaiam Brand business, cash expected to be generated from operations, borrowings available under our revolving credit facility, cash that could be raised by the sale of our shelf registration stock, and potential borrowing capabilities should be sufficient to fund our operations on both a short-term and long-term basis. In addition, we own our corporate headquarters and could enter into additional financing or sale/leaseback transaction to provide additional funds. However, our projected cash needs may change as a result of acquisitions, product development, unforeseen operational difficulties or other factors.

Contractual Obligations

Prior to the sale of the Gaiam Brand business, we had commitments pursuant to operating lease and media distribution agreements. These obligations were entirely assumed by the new owners of the Gaiam Brand business effective July 1, 2016.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks, however, we have determined that no material market risk exposure to our consolidated financial position, results from operations or cash flows existed as of June 30, 2016.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon its evaluation as of June 30, 2016, our management has concluded that those disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk Factors

As a result of the sale of our Gaiam Brand segment, risks related solely to our Gaiam Brand segment are no longer material risks to us. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, except the following risks in connection with the sale of the Gaiam Brand segment:

Our historical consolidated financial information is not necessarily representative of the results we would have achieved as a stand-alone business and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results.

The historical consolidated financial information included in this filing does not necessarily reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows that we would have achieved as a stand-alone business during the periods presented or those that we will achieve in the future, primarily as a result of the following factors:

 

    Before the Gaiam Brand business was sold, our business was operated as part of a broader corporate organization, rather than as stand-alone business. We shared expenses for significant corporate functions, including tax and treasury administration and certain governance functions, including internal audit, external reporting and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). Our historical financial statements reflect allocations of corporate expenses for these and similar functions, and these allocations might be more or less than the comparable expenses we would have incurred had we operated as a stand-alone business.

 

    Our working capital requirements and capital for our general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and capital expenditures, historically have been satisfied as part of the company-wide cash management practices. Following the sale of the Gaiam Brand business, we may need to draw from our credit line, to obtain additional financing from banks, through public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities or other arrangements.

 

    We have historically shared economies of scope and scale in costs, employees, vendor relationships and certain customer relationships. The loss of these benefits may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

    Other significant changes may occur in our cost structure, management, financing and business operations as a result of our operating as a stand-alone business.

As stand-alone business, we may not enjoy the same benefits that we did prior to the sale of the Gaiam Brand segment.

There is a risk that, by selling the Gaiam Brand segment, we may become more susceptible to market fluctuations and other adverse events than we would have been were we still a part of a larger company. As part of a larger company, we have been able to enjoy certain benefits such as operating diversity, purchasing power, credit worthiness, available capital for operations and investments and opportunities to pursue integrated strategies. As a stand-alone business we will not have similar diversity or integration opportunities and may not have similar purchasing power, credit worthiness or access to capital markets. This could result in insufficient liquidity to carry out our business plan.

We have had losses, and we cannot assure future profitability

We have reported net operating losses from continuing operations of $7.2 million and $5.0 million for the six month periods ending June 30, 2016 and 2015. We cannot assure you that we will operate profitably in future periods and, if we do not, we may not be able to meet our working capital requirements, capital expenditure plan or other cash needs. Our inability to meet those needs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects.

Exhibit 3.1

A MENDED AND R ESTATED A RTICLES OF I NCORPORATION

OF

G AIAM , I NC .

Pursuant to the provisions of the Colorado Business Corporation Act, the undersigned Corporation hereby adopts the following Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. These Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation amend, restate, and supersede the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation originally filed July 7, 1988, as subsequently amended. These Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation were adopted by the shareholders of the Corporation as of October 24, 1999. The number of votes cast by each voting group entitled to vote separately on the amendment was sufficient for approval by that voting group.

ARTICLE I

NAME

The name of the Corporation shall be Gaiam, Inc.

ARTICLE II

CORPORATE PURPOSE

The nature of the business of the Corporation and the objects and purpose to be transacted, promoted, and carried on by it are to engage generally in any lawful business.

ARTICLE III

DURATION

The Corporation shall have perpetual existence.

ARTICLE IV

SHARES OF STOCK

A. Authorized Capital Stock . The aggregate number of shares that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is two hundred fifty million (250,000,000), consisting of one hundred million (150,000,000) shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share, fifty million (50,000,000) shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share and fifty million (50,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are sometimes referred to in these Articles as the “Common Stock”. References to these “Articles” shall be understood to mean these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation as set forth herein and as amended from time to time hereafter in accordance with the provisions of these Articles and of applicable law.

B. Outstanding Shares . Upon the filing of these Articles, each share of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the filing of these Articles shall be converted into four tenths of a share of Class A Common Stock, and each share of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the filing of these Articles shall be converted into four tenths of a share of Class B Common Stock.


C. Preemptive Rights . Unless subsequently granted by the Board of Directors, shareholders of the Common Stock of the Corporation shall not have the preemptive right to acquire unissued shares or securities convertible into such shares or carrying a right to subscribe to or acquire shares. Such provisions shall apply to both shares outstanding and to newly issued shares.

D. Dividends . No dividends or any other distribution may be paid or declared or set aside for Class B Common Stock unless an equal amount is paid or declared or set aside for the Class A Common Stock, and no dividends or any other distribution may be paid or declared or set aside for Class A Common Stock unless an equal amount is paid or declared or set aside for the Class B Common Stock. In the case of dividends or other distributions payable in Common Stock of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, such distributions or dividends shall be in the same proportion with respect to each class of Common Stock, but only shares of Class A Common Stock (or common stock of a subsidiary which shall be identical in all material respects to Class A Common Stock) shall be distributed with respect to Class A Common Stock and only shares of Class B Common Stock (or common stock of a subsidiary which shall be identical in all material respects to Class B Common Stock) shall be distributed with respect to Class B Common Stock. In the case of any combination or reclassification of Class A Common Stock, the shares of Class B Common Stock shall also be combined or reclassified so that the relationship between the number of shares of Class B Common Stock and Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following such combination or reclassification shall be the same as the relationship between the Class B Common Stock and the Class A Common Stock immediately prior to such combination or reclassification.

E. Voting . Each holder of Class A Common Stock shall have one (1) vote on all matters submitted to shareholders for each share of Class A Common Stock standing in the name of such holder on the books of the Corporation. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have ten (10) votes on all matters submitted to shareholders for each share of Class B Common Stock standing in the name of such holder on the books of the Corporation. Except as otherwise provided in these Articles or as otherwise provided by law, all shares of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to vote shall vote as a single group on all matters submitted to the shareholders. The Corporation may not issue any additional shares of Class B Common Stock (except in connection with stock splits and stock dividends) and the provisions of these Articles relating to the rights of the Class B Common Stock may not be amended unless and until such action is authorized by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of Class A Common Stock and of Class B Common Stock entitled to vote, each voting separately as a class. In the election of directors, cumulative voting shall not be allowed.

F. Quorum . At all meetings of the shareholders, the holders of a majority of the votes eligible to be cast shall constitute a quorum. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes eligible to be cast on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders unless the vote of a greater number or voting by groups is required by the Colorado Business Corporation Act or these Articles.


G. Liquidation . In the event of either an involuntary or a voluntary liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation, the holders of Class A and Class B Common Stock shall share ratably all assets and surplus funds of the Corporation available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock.

H. Restrictions on Transfer of the Class B Common Stock . No holder of record of Class B Common Stock (a “Class B Holder”) may transfer, and the Corporation shall not register the transfer of, such shares of Class B Common Stock, whether by sale, assignment, gift, bequest, appointment or otherwise, except to a Permitted Transferee, as defined below.

1. Permitted Transferees .

(a) Natural Persons . In the case of a Class B Holder who is a natural person, a Permitted Transferee shall mean: (i) the spouse of such Class B Holder, any lineal descendant of a grandparent of such Class B Holder and any spouse of such a lineal descendant; (ii) the trustee of a trust (including a voting trust) principally for the benefit of such Class B Holder and/or one or more of his or her Permitted Transferees described in this Section H(1)(a); (iii) any organization described in Section 170(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, as it may from time to time be amended (the “Code”), or any split-interest trust described in Section 4947 of the Code (hereinafter called a “Charitable Organization”); (iv) a corporation, a majority of the beneficial ownership of outstanding capital stock of which entitled to vote for the election of directors is owned by, or a partnership a majority of the beneficial ownership of the partnership interests of which entitled to participate in the management of the partnership are held by, such Class B Holder or his or her Permitted Transferees determined under this Section H(1)(a); and (v) the executor, administrator or personal representative of the estate of such Class B Holder or the guardian of the estate of such Class B Holder.

(b) Trustees, Charitable Organizations, and Corporations and Partnerships . In the case of a Class B Holder that is a trust, a Charitable Organization, a corporation or partnership, “Permitted Transferee” means (i) any person transferring shares of Class B Common Stock to such entity or organization and (ii) any Permitted Transferee of any such transferor as determined under Section H(1)(a) above.

(c) Executors . In the case of a Class B Holder that is the executor, administrator, personal representative or guardian of the estate of a deceased Class B Holder, or that is the trustee or receiver of the estate of a bankrupt or insolvent Class B Holder, “Permitted Transferee” means a Permitted Transferee of such deceased, bankrupt or insolvent Class B Holder as determined pursuant to Section H(1)(a) above.

2. Transfer of Control . If by reason of any change in the ownership of the stock or partnership interests of a Permitted Transferee that is a corporation or partnership, such corporation or partnership would no longer qualify as a Permitted Transferee as set forth in Section H(1)(a) above, then all shares of Class B Common Stock then held by such corporation or partnership shall, upon the election of the Corporation given by written notice to such corporation or partnership, without further action, be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock effective upon the date of the giving of such notice.


3. Pledge . A Class B Holder may pledge such holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock to a pledgee pursuant to a bona fide pledge of such shares as collateral security for indebtedness due to the pledgee, provided that such shares shall not be transferred to or registered in the name of the pledgee and shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section H. In the event of foreclosure or other similar action by the pledgee, such pledged shares of Class B Common Stock may only be transferred to a Permitted Transferee of the pledgor or converted into shares of Class A Common Stock, as the pledgee may elect.

4. Interpretations . For purposes of this Section H, (a) the relationship of any person that is derived by or through legal adoption shall be considered a natural one; (b) each joint owner of shares of Class B Common Stock shall be considered a “Class B Holder” of such shares; (c) a minor for whom shares of Class B Common Stock are held pursuant to a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or similar law shall be considered a Class B Holder of such shares; (d) unless otherwise specified, the term “person” means both natural persons and legal entities; (e) without limiting the rights of the Corporation pursuant to Section H(2) above, each reference to a corporation or partnership shall include any successor corporation or partnership resulting from merger or consolidation; each reference to a partnership shall include any successor partnership resulting from the death or withdrawal of a partner; and each reference to a trustee shall include any successor trustee.

5. Transfers other than to Permitted Transferees . Any transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock not permitted under these Articles shall result in the conversion of the transferee’s shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, effective the date on which certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer on the books of the Corporation.

6. Record Holder . Shares of Class B Common Stock shall not be registered in “street” or “nominee” name. The Corporation shall note on the certificates for shares of Class B Common Stock the restrictions on transfer imposed by this Section H.

I. Conversion Rights . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section I, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be convertible at any time or from time to time at the option of a Class B Holder into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock. At any time when the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock approve the conversion of all or part of the Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, then each outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock designated for conversion shall be converted into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock as of the close of business on the date approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock.

1. Conversion Procedure . A Class B Holder desiring conversion shall (a) surrender the certificate or certificates evidencing the Class B Common Stock being converted, duly endorsed by such Class B Holder to the Corporation or in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer to the Corporation, and (b) give written notice to the Corporation that such Class B Holder elects to convert such Class B Holder’s Class B Common Stock. As soon as practicable after receipt of such notice and deposit of such certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to the converting Class B Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Class A Common Stock to which the Class B Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this


Section I. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made as of the close of business on the date upon which the Corporation receives such notice and deposit, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Class B Common Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Class A Common Stock as of the close of business on such date.

2. Reservation of Class A Common Stock . The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the purpose of issuing Class A Common Stock upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all such outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock. All shares of Class A Common Stock which shall be issued upon conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock, will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable. All shares of Class B Common Stock converted into Class A Common Stock shall be cancelled and restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Class B Common Stock.

J. Preferred Stock . The Board of Directors is expressly authorized, at any time and from time to time, to provide for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series or classes, with such designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights as shall be expressed in articles of amendment to these Articles, which shall be adopted by the Board of Directors and shall be effective without shareholder action, as provided in Section 7-106-102 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act; provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall not issue or authorize any voting Preferred Stock without the consent or approval of a majority of the Class B Common Stock.

ARTICLE V

DIRECTORS

The number of persons constituting the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be fixed by the Bylaws of the Corporation. Directors need not be residents of the State of Colorado or shareholders of the Corporation and shall exercise all the powers conferred on the Corporation by these Articles and by the laws of the State of Colorado.

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by law, as now or hereafter in effect, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives; provided, however, that except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives ) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors or the shareholders representing a majority of the Common Stock. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article VI shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition.


The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article to the directors and officers of the Corporation.

The rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this Article shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws of the Corporation, any statute, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Any repeal or modification of this Article by the shareholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director or officer of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

ARTICLE VII

LIMITATION ON DIRECTOR’S LIABILITY

A director’s personal liability to the Corporation or its shareholders is limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Colorado Business Corporation Act, as amended from time to time. Any limitation on liability in effect prior to the date of these Articles shall remain in full force and effect. Any repeal or modification of this Article VII shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director hereunder existing at the time of such repeal or modification.
