Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Note 1 — Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

LiveXLive Media, Inc. (“LiveXLive”) together with its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Beverly Hills, California. The Company is a global platform for livestream and on-demand audio, video and podcast content in music, comedy and pop culture.

On December 29, 2017, LiveXLive acquired Slacker, Inc. (“Slacker”), an Internet music and radio streaming service incorporated in the state of Delaware, and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of LiveXLive. On February 5, 2020, the Company acquired (i) React Presents, LLC a Delaware limited liability company (“React Presents”), and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of LiveXLive Events, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary and (ii) indirectly Spring Awakening, LLC, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of React Presents, a producer, promoter and manager of in person live music festivals and events. On July 1, 2020, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, LiveXLive PodcastOne, Inc., acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Courtside Group, Inc. (dba PodcastOne) (“PodcastOne”) (see Note 4 – Business Combinations). On December 22, 2020, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary LiveXLive Merchandising, Inc., acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Custom Personalization Solutions, Inc. (“CPS”) (see Note 4 – Business Combinations).

Basis of Presentation

The presented financial information includes the financial information and activities of PodcastOne for the three months ended June 30, 2021 (91 days) and for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (0 days). The presented financial information includes the financial information and activities of CPS for the three months ended June 30, 2021 (91 days) and for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (0 days).

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, and include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 has been derived from the Company’s audited balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 14, 2021 (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete audited financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2021 Form 10-K.

Going Concern and Liquidity

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

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity have historically been its debt and equity issuances and its cash and cash equivalents (which cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash amounted to $24.7 million as of June 30, 2021). As reflected in its condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein, the Company has a history of losses, and incurred a net loss of $8.1 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and had a working capital deficiency of $12.1 million as of June 30, 2021. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are filed. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to execute its growth strategy and on its ability to raise additional funds. The Company filed a universal shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 which became effective in February 2019 pursuant to which the Company has the ability to raise up to $150.0 million in cash from the sale of equity, debt and/or other financial instruments, of which $121.5 million is remaining as of the date of this Quarterly Report. The continued spread of COVID-19 and uncertain market conditions may limit the Company’s ability to access capital, may reduce demand for its services and may negatively impact its ability to retain key personnel. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a $7.0 million secured revolving credit facility (see Note 11 – Secured Revolving Line of Credit ). Management may seek additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate the Company’s business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to it. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain terms that result in undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in case of equity and/or convertible debt financing. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient financing when needed, the Company may also have to reduce certain overhead costs through the reduction of salaries and other means and settle liabilities through negotiation. There can be no assurance that management’s attempts at any or all of these endeavors will be successful.

Principles of Consolidation

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

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the Company’s previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those previously disclosed in the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on July 14, 2021, other than those included below.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the global economy, disrupting the financial markets creating increasing volatility and overall uncertainty. The Company began to experience modest adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 and became more adverse throughout the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. Although the impact has subsided, the Company expects to continue experiencing modest adverse impacts throughout the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022. The Company’s event and programmatic advertising revenues were directly impacted throughout the 2021 fiscal year with all on-premise in-person live music festivals and events postponed and mixed demand from historical advertising partners. Further, one of the Company’s larger customers also experienced a temporary halt to its production as a result of COVID-19, which negatively impacted the Company’s near-term subscriber growth in the 2021 fiscal year. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, the Company enacted several initiatives to counteract these near-term challenges, including salary reductions, obtaining a Paycheck Protection Program loan (see Note 8 - Notes Payable) and pivoting its live music production to 100% digital. The Company began producing, curating, and broadcasting digital music festivals and events across its platform which has resulted in the growth in the number of live events streamed, related sponsorship revenue and overall viewership. The Company also launched a new pay-per-view (“PPV) offering in May 2020, enabling new forms of artist revenue including digital tickets, tipping, digital meet and greet and merchandise sales. However, there is uncertainty as to the duration and overall impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could result in an adverse material change in a future period to the Company’s results of operations, financial position and liquidity.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted in the United States. The CARES Act provides numerous tax provisions and other stimulus measures, including temporary changes regarding the prior and future utilization of net operating losses and technical corrections from prior tax legislation for tax depreciation of certain qualified improvement property. The Company evaluated the provisions of the CARES Act and does not anticipate the associated impacts, if any, will have a material effect on its provision for income taxes.

On December 29, 2020 the Consolidated Appropriations Act (“CAA”) was enacted in the United States. The CAA provides numerous tax provisions and most notably for the Company changes the tax treatment of those expenses paid for with a PPP loan from non-deductible to deductible. The Company is in the process of evaluating the provisions of the CAA including second draw Paycheck Protection Program loans and potential eligibility for Employee Retention Credits and does not anticipate the other provisions included will have a material impact on its provision for income taxes.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include revenue, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory calculations and reserves, the assigned value of acquired assets and assumed and contingent liabilities associated with business combinations and the related purchase price allocation, useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill and other assets, the fair value of the Company’s equity-based compensation awards and convertible debt and debenture instruments, fair values of derivatives, and contingencies. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and trends, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Given the overall uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a reasonable possibility that actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the financial position and results of operations, specifically in assessing when the collectability of revenue related consideration is probable, and the impairment assessment of goodwill, indefinite lived assets or long-lived assets that are depreciated or amortized.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and the dilutive effect of contingent shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive contingent shares, which primarily consist of stock options issued to employees, directors and consultants, restricted stock units, warrants issued to third parties and accounted for as equity instruments and convertible notes would be excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

At June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had 3,901,124 and 4,383,334 options outstanding, respectively, 5,836,146 and 5,685,697 restricted stock units outstanding, respectively, 0 and 167,363 warrants outstanding, respectively, and 5,764,719 and 3,995,241 shares of common stock issuable, respectively, underlying the Company’s convertible debt. 

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting where the purchase consideration is allocated to the underlying net tangible and intangible assets acquired, based on their respective fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree are recognized and measured as of the acquisition date at fair value. Additionally, any contingent consideration is recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and classified as a liability. Goodwill is recognized to the extent by which the aggregate of the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree exceeds the recognized basis of the identifiable assets acquired, net of assumed liabilities. Determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the selection of appropriate valuation methodology, projected revenue, expenses and cash flows, weighted average cost of capital, discount rates, estimates of customer turnover rates, estimates of terminal values, and royalty rates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities, when purchased, of three months or less.

The following table provides amounts included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company maintains certain letters of credit agreements with its banking provider, which are secured by the Company’s cash for periods of less than one year. As of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company had restricted cash of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. Generally, it records specific reserves to reduce the amounts recorded to what it believes will be collected when a customer’s account ages beyond typical collection patterns, or the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations.

The Company believes that the credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to the large and established nature of its largest customers and the nature of its subscription receivables. At June 30, 2021, the Company had one customer that made up 19% of the total accounts receivable balance. At March 31, 2021, the Company had two customers that made up 21% and 15% of the total accounts receivable balance, respectively. 

The Company’s accounts receivable at June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 is as follows (in thousands):

Inventories

Inventories, principally raw materials awaiting final customization process, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories are relieved on a first-in, first-out basis.

The carrying value of inventories is reduced for any excess and obsolete inventory. Excess and obsolete reductions are determined based on currently available information, including the likely method of disposition, such as through sales to individual customers and liquidations, and the age of inventory.

Notes Payable – Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loans

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PPP was established under the CARES Act and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Companies who met the eligibility requirements set forth by the PPP could qualify for PPP loans provided by local lenders, which supports payroll, rent and utility expenses (“qualified expenses”). If the loan proceeds are fully utilized to pay qualified expenses over the covered period, as further defined by the PPP, the full principal amount of the PPP loan may qualify for loan forgiveness, subject to potential reduction based on the level of full-time employees maintained by the organization during the covered period as compared to a baseline period. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that $2.5 million in PPP loans (see Note 8 – Notes Payable) were forgiven. 

As the loans were forgiven and we were released from being the primary obligor, we recognized income in the amount forgiven in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company recognized a gain on forgiveness of the PPP loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and is included in Other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated Statement of Operations.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15. Intangibles - Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, related to accounting for implementation costs incurred in hosted cloud computing service arrangements. Under the new guidance, implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract should be expensed or capitalized based on the nature of the costs and the project stage during which such costs are incurred. If the implementation costs qualify for capitalization, they must be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement and assessed for impairment. Companies must disclose the nature of any hosted cloud computing service arrangements. This ASU also provides guidance for balance sheet and income statement presentation of capitalized implementation costs and statement of cash flows presentation for the related payments. This ASU was effective beginning in the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2021. The Company prospectively adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have, and is not expected to have, a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18 which clarified the interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606, which makes targeted improvements for collaborative arrangements as follows: (a) clarifies that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants are within the scope of ASC 606 when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account. (b) adds unit-of-account (i.e., distinct good or service) guidance to ASC 808 to align with the guidance in ASC 606 to determine whether the collaborative arrangement, or a part of the arrangement, is within the scope of ASC 606, and c) specifies that in a transaction with a collaborative arrangement participant that is not directly related to sales to third parties, if the collaborative arrangement participant is not a customer, an entity is precluded from presenting the transaction together with revenue recognized under ASC 606. The ASU was effective for public business entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2019. For all other entities, the ASU was effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have, and is not expected to have, a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and has identified no material effect on its financial statements or disclosures. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The FASB issued this ASU to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Complexity associated with the accounting is a significant contributing factor to numerous financial statement restatements and results in complexity for users attempting to understand the results of applying the current guidance. In addressing the complexity, the FASB focused on amending the guidance on convertible instruments and the guidance on the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. For convertible instruments, the FASB decided to reduce the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The FASB concluded that eliminating certain accounting models simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments, reduces complexity for preparers and practitioners, and improves the decision usefulness and relevance of the information provided to financial statement users. In addition to eliminating certain accounting models, the FASB also decided to enhance information transparency by making targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings-per-share (EPS) guidance on the basis of feedback from financial statement users. The FASB decided to amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. The FASB observed that the application of the derivatives scope exception guidance results in accounting for some contracts as derivatives while accounting for economically similar contracts as equity. The FASB also decided to improve and amend the related EPS guidance. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The FASB decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its financial statements and related disclosures, as well as the timing of adoption and the application method.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

For some contracts, the Company may invoice up front for services recognized over time or for contracts in which the Company has unsatisfied performance obligations. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally cover monthly payments. In the circumstances where the timing of invoicing differs from the timing of revenue recognition, the Company has determined its contracts do not include a significant financing component. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-50-14 and not provide disclosure of the amount and timing of performance obligations as the performance obligations are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, one customer accounted for 18% and 58% of the Company’s consolidated revenues, respectively.

The following table summarizes the significant changes in contract liabilities balances during the three months ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands):

Note 4 — Business Combinations 

PodcastOne

On July 1, 2020, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, LiveXLive PodcastOne, Inc., acquired 100% of the equity interests of PodcastOne for net consideration of $16.1 million consisting of 5,363,636 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $14.6 million net of a 24% discount for lack of marketability described below, contingent consideration with a fair value of $1.1 million and an additional true-up of 203,249 shares during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 valued at $0.4 million, net of a 24% discount for lack of marketability described below, that was issued as part of the final purchase price consideration. The shares of the Company’s common stock were subject to a twelve-month lock-up period and remain subject to sales volume restrictions. 

If, during the period commencing after May 7, 2020 and ending on July 1, 2022, for five consecutive trading days the closing market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds $5.00 per share, an additional aggregate payment of $3.0 million in cash shall be paid to the sellers of PodcastOne in accordance with their respective pro rata percentage within five business days of the second anniversary of the closing date (July 1, 2022). The fair value of this contingent consideration liability on the closing date of July 1, 2020 was estimated at $1.1 million using a Monte Carlo simulation and the significant unobservable input included a credit yield of 21.9%. During March 2021, the closing price of the Company’s common stock exceeded $5.00 per share for the requisite five consecutive days. The Company recorded a $0.1 million charge to other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The contingent consideration liability of $2.5 million is classified within Other Long-term Liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 (see Note 14 – Other Long-Term Liabilities).

CPS

On December 22, 2020, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, LiveXLive Merchandising, Inc., acquired 100% of the equity interests of CPS for total consideration of 2,230,769 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock with a fair value of $6.4 million net of a 25% discount for lack of marketability described below. The shares of the Company’s common stock issued to the sellers are subject to a twelve-month lock-up period from the closing date, such that no such shares can be sold, transferred, assigned, hypothecated, or in any way disposed of, or any right or interest therein, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or by gift or otherwise prior to the expiration of such period.

The Company agreed to also issue up to approximately 577,000 additional shares of its restricted common stock, classified as contingent consideration, if CPS reports GAAP revenue of $20.0 million and $1.0 million of EBITDA (as defined in the purchase agreement) for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Based on their likelihood of achievement these number of shares reflect management’s current estimate and were valued at $1.7 million based on the Company’s stock price on the date of acquisition, net of a 25% discount for lack of marketability. The contingent consideration liability at June 30, 2021 of $2.0 million is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded a $0.5 million benefit to other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Company further agreed to issue up to approximately 214,000 additional shares of its restricted common stock to the extent CPS’ final working capital as determined by the parties exceeds $4.0 million. These number of shares are based on actual achievement under the terms of the purchase agreement and mutual agreement with the sellers. These additional shares were valued at $0.6 million based on the Company’s stock price on the date of acquisition, net of a 25% discount for lack of marketability. Included in the total amount of $0.6 million is a purchase price adjustment of $0.3 million related to the resolution of provisional amounts previously recorded based on estimates, which was accounted for as a purchase price adjustment within the measurement period as an increase to goodwill related to the CPS acquisition. These amounts are included in additional paid in capital in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Depreciation expense was $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company’s finite-lived intangible assets were as follows as of March 31, 2021 (in thousands):

The Company’s amortization expense on its finite-lived intangible assets was $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company expects to record amortization of intangible assets for fiscal years ending March 31, 2022 and future fiscal years as follows (in thousands):

Senior Promissory Note

On December 31, 2014, the Company converted accounts payable into a Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $0.2 million. The Note bears interest at 6% per annum and interest is payable on a quarterly basis commencing March 31, 2015 or the Company may elect that the amount of such interest be added to the principal sum outstanding under this Note. The payables arose in connection with professional services rendered by attorneys for the Company prior to and through December 31, 2014, and the Note had an original maturity date of December 31, 2015, which was extended to September 30, 2016 or such later date as the lender may agree to in writing. In February 2018, the Note holder filed a claim for collection of the Note (see Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies). In February 2019, as part of a settlement agreement, the parties agreed to the repayment of the Note on or before June 30, 2019. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Note has not been extended and is currently past due. In addition, the holder of the Note obtained a judgement against the Company for nonpayment of the Note in the State of Delaware in August 2019 and a judgement lien against the Company in the State of California in the third fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2021, and March 31, 2021, the balance due under the Note was $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which includes $0.1 million and $0.1 million of accrued interest, respectively.

SBA Loan

On June 17, 2020, the Company received the proceeds from a loan in the amount of less than $0.2 million from the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). Installment payments, including principal and interest, begin 12-months from the date of the promissory note. The balance is payable 30-years from the date of the promissory note, and bears interest at a rate of 3.75% per annum.

PPP Loans

In April 2020, the Company received proceeds of $2.0 million from a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the CARES Act. On April 22, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that the entire balance of such PPP loan was forgiven as a result of the Company’s application and acceptance under the terms of the CARES act. On July 1, 2020, the Company acquired PodcastOne that had previously obtained a PPP loan, which had a balance of $0.5 million as of March 31, 2021. On May 11, 2021, the Company received confirmation from the SBA that the entire balance of such PPP loan was forgiven as a result of the Company’s application and acceptance under the terms of the CARES act.

The Company recognized a $2.5 million gain on forgiveness of PPP loans, included in other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations as a result of the balance of PPP loans forgiven during the quarter. We have not accrued any liability associated with the risk of an adverse SBA review.

On March 20, 2021, the Company received proceeds of $0.6 million from a second loan (the “PPP loan”) under the PPP of the CARES Act, which the Company intends to use to retain employees and for other qualifying expenses. The PPP Loan matures on March 20, 2026 and bears annual interest at a rate of 1.0%. Commencing on March 31, 2022, the Company is required to pay the lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize by March 20, 2026 any principal amount outstanding on the PPP Loan as of such date. All or a portion of this loan may be forgiven by the SBA upon application by the Company before the maturity date of the loan and upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements. In the event the loans, or any portion thereof, are forgiven pursuant to the PPP, the amount forgiven is applied to outstanding principal. The application for these funds requires the Company to, in good faith, certify that the current economic uncertainty made the loan request necessary to support the ongoing operations of the Company. This certification further requires the Company to consider its current business activity and its ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business. The receipt of these funds, and the forgiveness of the loan attendant to these funds, is dependent on the Company having initially qualified for the loan and qualifying for the forgiveness of such loan based on its future adherence to the forgiveness criteria.

Total principal maturities of the Company’s long-term borrowings, including the senior secured convertible debentures, unsecured convertible notes, and notes payable are $2.5 million for the year ending March 31, 2022 (remaining nine months), $4.7 million for the year ending March 31, 2023, and $15.1 million for the year ending March 31, 2024. For the year ended March 31, 2025 and thereafter, the total principal maturities of $0.4 million consist of obligations to repay the PPP and SBA loans.

Unsecured Convertible Notes – Related Party 

As of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company had outstanding 8.5% unsecured convertible notes payable (the “Trinad Notes”) issued to Trinad Capital Master Fund Ltd. (“Trinad Capital”), a fund controlled by Mr. Ellin, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chairman, director and principal stockholder, as follows below. The Trinad Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $3.00 per share.

The first Trinad Note was issued on February 21, 2017, to convert aggregate principal and interest of $3.6 million under the first senior promissory note and second senior promissory note with Trinad Capital previously issued on December 31, 2014 and April 8, 2015, respectively. The first Trinad Note was due on March 31, 2018 and was extended to May 31, 2019 and further extended to May 31, 2021 (as discussed below). At June 30, 2021, the balance due of $4.5 million, which included $0.9 million of accrued interest, was outstanding under the first Trinad Note. At March 31, 2021, the balance due of $4.4 million, which included $1.0 million of accrued interest, was outstanding under the first Trinad Note.

Between October 27, 2017 and December 18, 2017, the Company issued six unsecured convertible notes payable to Trinad Capital for aggregate total principal amount of $1.1 million. The notes were due on various dates through December 31, 2018 and were extended to May 31, 2019 and further extended to May 31, 2022 (as discussed below). As of June 30, 2021, $0.2 million of accrued interest was included in the principal balance.

The Company may not redeem the any of the Trinad Notes prior to May 31, 2022 without Trinad Capital’s consent.

Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note

On February 5, 2020, React Presents issued a two-year $2.0 million Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”), bearing annual interest at 8%. The purpose of the Note was to fund the acquisition of React Presents. All unpaid and outstanding principal and any unpaid and accrued interest are due on February 5, 2022. The Note is convertible by the holder at any time prior to maturity in part or in whole with the unpaid interest and principal convertible at a conversion price equal to $4.50 per share of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain protective adjustments. The Note may be prepaid in whole or in part in cash without penalty at any time prior to maturity. Any such prepayment will be applied to accrued interest first and then the principal.

At June 30, 2021, the Company performed a fair value analysis using a binomial lattice calculation on the derivative instruments using the following assumptions: Coupon Rate: 8.0%, Term: 0.6 years, Volatility: 85.2%, Market Rate: 5.1% and Probability of Default: 7.1%. The Company determined that as of the assessment date, the fair value is $0.1 million. The change in fair value of less than $0.1 million is recorded in other income (expense) on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

On September 15, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company issued two-year senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million (the “Harvest Notes”) to Harvest Small Cap Partners, L.P. and Harvest Small Cap Partners, Ltd. (collectively, the “Purchaser”). The Purchaser are funds affiliated with No Street Capital, a San Francisco-based investment firm.

The Harvest Notes mature on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, accrue interest at 8.5% per year with interest is payable quarterly in cash in arrears, and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.50 per share at the applicable Purchaser’s option, subject to certain customary adjustments such as stock splits, stock dividends and stock combinations (the “Conversion Price”). The Company does not have the right to prepay any or all of the Harvest Notes prior to their maturity.

The current portion of accrued interest related to the Harvest Notes is included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s obligations under the Harvest Notes may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default (as defined in the Senior Notes) and are guaranteed under a Subsidiary Guarantee, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”), entered into by all of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Purchaser. The Company’s obligations under the Harvest Notes and the Guarantors’ obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee are secured under a Security Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Security Agreement”), and an Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “IP Security Agreement”), by a lien on all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ assets and intellectual property, subject to certain exceptions. The Harvest Notes require the Company to maintain aggregate cash deposits of $10.0 million until the Harvest Notes are paid in full. In May 2021 and in connection with the Company entering into a $7 million secured revolving credit facility, the holders of the Harvest Notes subordinated their security interest and extended the maturity date of the notes to June 3, 2023. In consideration of the above, the Company issued 60,000 shares of its common stock to the Purchaser.

The Company evaluated this agreement and it was required to be accounted for as troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470-60, Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors. As a result, the Company recorded the shares of common stock issued to the Purchaser as an increase to Additional Paid In Capital and a corresponding debt discount included in Secured Convertible Notes, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company and the Purchaser also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “RRA”), which granted the Assignees “demand” and “piggyback” registration rights to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes and the Shares (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) with the SEC for resale or other disposition. Pursuant to the RRA, the Company was required to file with the SEC a resale Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or another suitable form) as soon as reasonably practical after the Closing Date, but in any event within 30 days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), and have such Registration Statement be declared effective by the SEC on the date (the “Effectiveness Date”) which is the earlier of (i)(x) in the event that the initial Registration Statement is not subject to a full review by the SEC, 45 calendar days after the Filing Date, or (y) in the event that such initial Registration Statement is subject to a full review by the SEC, 90 calendar days after the Filing Date, and (ii) the fifth Business Day after the date the Company is notified by the SEC that such initial Registration Statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review. Upon the occurrence of certain events (each an “Event”), the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages in cash to each of the Assignees in the amount of 2.0% of the purchase price of the Notes paid by such Assignee upon the date of the Event and then monthly thereafter until the Event is cured. In no event shall the aggregate amount of liquidated damages payable to each of the Assignees exceed in the aggregate 15% of the purchase price of the Notes paid by such Assignee. We filed such resale Registration Statement on Form S-3 on October 14, 2020, and it was declared effective by the SEC on October 21, 2020. The Company also agreed to keep the initial Registration Statement continuously effective until the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder have been sold and (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold without volume restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

In connection with the SPA, and the Senior Notes subsequent extension, Robert S. Ellin, the Company’s CEO, Chairman, director and principal stockholder, agreed not to dispose of any equity securities of the Company owned by Mr. Ellin or any entity of which he is the beneficial owner and not to cease to be the beneficial owner of any other equity securities of the Company of which Mr. Ellin is the beneficial owner as of June 3, 2021 until the Senior Notes are paid in full (subject to certain customary exceptions), without the Purchaser’s prior written consent.

The Senior Notes and the Shares were issued in private placement transaction that was not registered under the Securities Act, in reliance upon applicable exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Note 11 — Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit

On June 7, 2021, the Company entered into a Business Loan Agreement with East West Bank (the “Senior Lender”), which provides for a revolving credit facility collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. In connection with the Business Loan Agreement, the Company entered into a Promissory Note with the Senior Lender and established the revolving line of credit in the amount of $7.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), maturing on June 2, 2023. Under the terms of the Promissory Note, the Revolving Credit Facility bears interest at a variable rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, plus 0.5%. The interest rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 was 3.75%.

During June 2021, the Company drew down on the Revolving Credit Facility in aggregate advance amounts of $6.0 million. The principal balance under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2021 was $6.0 million.

Note 12 — Related Party Transactions

As of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company had unsecured convertible Trinad Notes outstanding which were issued to Trinad Capital as described in Note 9 – Unsecured Convertible Notes.

Note 13 — Leases

The Company leases a space at a location under a non-cancellable operating lease with a remaining lease term of 1 year, expiring in fiscal year 2022. On December 22, 2020, the Company acquired CPS which included the assumption of an operating lease for a 55,120 square foot light manufacturing facility located in Addison Illinois, expiring June 30, 2024.

The Company leases several office locations with lease terms that are less than 12 months or are on month to month terms. Rent expense for these leases totaled less than $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Operating leases with lease terms of greater than 12 months are capitalized in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Rent expense for these operating leases totaled $0.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Operating lease costs for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 consisted of the following (in thousands):

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

The operating lease right-of-use assets are included in other assets and operating lease liabilities are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and lease liabilities non-current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Maturities of operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2021 were as follows (in thousands):

Significant judgments

Discount rate – the Company’s lease is discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 8.5% as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.

Options – the lease term is the minimum noncancelable period of the lease. The Company does not include option periods unless the Company determined it is reasonably certain of exercising the option at inception or when a triggering event occurs.

Lease and non-lease components – Non lease components were considered and determined not to be material 

Note 14 — Other Long-Term Liabilities

On October 30, 2020, Slacker entered into an amendment to existing agreements with a certain licensor of music content (the “Music Partner”) which own and license rights to Slacker to certain sound recordings. Pursuant to this amendment, payment terms on $5.9 million of outstanding balances to the Music Partner were extended over periods between 12 and 24 months.

The amount included in Other long-term liabilities is comprised of a contingent consideration liability resulting from the business combination with PodcastOne (Note 4 - Business Combinations) and is carried at fair value (see Note 19 - Fair Value Measurements).

Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies

Promotional Rights

Certain of the Company’s content acquisition agreements contain minimum guarantees and require that the Company makes upfront minimum guarantee payments. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has licenses, production and/or distribution agreements to make guaranteed payments as follows: $0.8 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (remaining nine months), $0.4 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, and $0.3 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. These agreements also provide for a revenue share that ranges between 35% and 50% of net revenues. In addition, there are other licenses, production and/or distribution agreements that provide for a revenue share of 50% on net revenues; however, without a requirement to make future minimum guaranteed payments irrespective to the execution and results of the planned events.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2021, the Company is obligated under agreements with Content Providers and other contractual obligations to make guaranteed payments as follows: $6.8 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (remaining nine months), $6.5 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, and $5.7 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.

On a quarterly basis, the Company records the greater of the cumulative actual content acquisition costs incurred or the cumulative minimum guarantee based on forecasted usage for the minimum guarantee period. The minimum guarantee period is the period of time that the minimum guarantee relates to, as specified in each agreement, which may be annual or a longer period. The cumulative minimum guarantee, based on forecasted usage, considers factors such as listening hours, revenue, subscribers and other terms of each agreement that impact the Company’s expected attainment or recoupment of the minimum guarantees based on the relative attribution method.

Several of the Company’s content acquisition agreements also include provisions related to the royalty payments and structures of those agreements relative to other content licensing arrangements, which, if triggered, could cause the Company’s payments under those agreements to escalate. In addition, record labels, publishers and performing rights organizations with whom the Company has entered into direct license agreements have the right to audit the Company’s content acquisition payments, and any such audit could result in disputes over whether the Company has paid the proper content acquisition costs. However, as of June 30, 2021, the Company does not believe it is probable that these provisions of its agreements discussed above will, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Legal Proceedings 

In March 2018, Manatt Phelps& Phillips, LLP (“Manatt”) served the Company with a complaint filed on February 22, 2018 in the Supreme Court of the State of California County of Los Angeles against the Company. The complaint alleges, among other things, breach of contract and breach of promissory note. Plaintiff is seeking damages of $0.2 million, plus interest, attorneys’ fees and costs and other such relief as the court may award. On April 12, 2018, the Company filed an answer that generally denied all the claims in the complaint. On February 19, 2019, in connection with the settlement of the plaintiff’s Delaware action (as discussed below), the parties settled this matter agreeing that the Company would repay this note and accrued interest in full by June 30, 2019. Such settlement was approved by the court on March 4, 2019, and the plaintiff dismissed this action against the Company without prejudice. No additional consideration was paid by the Company to the plaintiff related to this settlement. At June 30, 2021 the promissory note has not been paid and is currently past due. Refer to Note 8 – Notes Payable where the related amounts are disclosed.

On April 10, 2018, Joseph Schnaier, Danco Enterprises, LLC (an entity solely owned by Mr. Schnaier, “Danco”), Wantmcs Holdings, LLC (Mr. Schnaier is the managing member) and Wantickets (Mr. Schnaier is the 90% beneficial owner) filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against each of the Company, LXL Tickets, Robert S. Ellin, Alec Ellin, Blake Indursky and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”). Plaintiffs subsequently voluntarily dismissed all claims against Alec Ellin and Blake Indursky. The complaint alleged multiple causes of action arising out of Schnaier’s investment (through Danco) of $1.25 million into the Company in 2016, the Company’s purchase of certain operating assets of Wantickets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 5, 2017, and Mr. Schnaier’s employment with LXL Tickets, including claims for fraudulent inducement, breach of contract, conversion, and defamation. Plaintiffs seek monetary damages and injunctive relief. Plaintiffs have also sued Computershare for negligence and for injunctive relief relating to the refusal to transfer certain restricted shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the plaintiffs. Plaintiffs are seeking injunctive relief, damages of approximately $26.7 million, plus interest, attorneys’ fees and costs and other such relief as the court may award. The Company has denied plaintiffs’ claims. The Company believes that the complaint is an intentional act by the plaintiffs to publicly tarnish the Company’s and its senior management’s reputations through the public domain in an effort to obtain by threat of litigation certain results for Mr. Schnaier’s self-serving and improper purposes. The Company is vigorously defending this lawsuit, and the Company believes that the allegations are without merit and that it has strong defenses. On June 26, 2018, the Company and LXL Tickets, filed counterclaims against the plaintiffs for breach of contract (including under the Asset Purchase Agreement), fraudulent inducement, and other causes of action, seeking injunctive relief, damages, attorneys’ fees and expenses and such other relief as the court may award. The parties are currently engaged in pre-trial proceedings, including continuing discovery efforts with the trial not expected to commence, if any, until the Company’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 (unless further delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic). In October 2018, pursuant to the terms of the APA, the Company submitted a formal demand to Wantickets, Mr. Schnaier and Danco to indemnify the Company, among other things, for its costs and expenses incurred in connection with this matter. As of March 31, 2021, all of plaintiffs’ claims other than fraudulent inducement and breach of the employment agreement were dismissed or addressed by the parties or the court. While a trial date has not yet been set, the Company expects to commence trial sometime during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend all defendants against any liability to the plaintiffs with respect to the remaining claims. As of June 30, 2021, while the Company has assessed the likelihood of a loss, if any, is not probable, the outcome of this lawsuit is inherently uncertain and the potential range of loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

In July 2021, Simply Greatness Productions, LLC (“SGP”) served the Company with a complaint filed on July 21, 2021 in the Superior Court of the State of California County of Los Angeles against the Company and Paul Cazers. The complaint seeks damages for an alleged breach of contract by the Company and an alleged breach of contract by Mr. Cazers related to the “Social Gloves: Battle of the Platforms” boxing event (the “Event”), alleges that the Company fraudulently induced SGP to commit to an oversize production budget based upon the Company’s knowing or negligent misrepresentation as to the anticipated pay-per-view sales for the Event, and seeks an accounting on the performance of the Event. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against any liability to the plaintiffs with respect to the claims.

On July 22, 2021, the Company filed its complaint against SGP, Austin McBroom, Catherine Paiz McBroom and Allen McBroom in the Superior Court of the State of California County of Los Angeles. The complaint arises from defamatory statements the defendants made following the Event claiming that the Company lied about the ticket sales. SGP’s financial auditor has validated the Company’s representations. In addition, the complaint alleges a breach of contract based on SGP’s willful failure to collaborate with the Company on marketing the Event resulting in poor ticket sales which, in turn, meant reduced fees to the Company. The complaint further alleges fraud and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage. The Company is asking the court to award no less than $100 million in damages.

During each of the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded aggregate legal settlement expenses relating to potential claims arising in connection with litigation brought against the Company by certain third-parties of $0.1 million and $0, respectively. During the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the full amounts were expensed and included in general and administrative expenses.

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings and other matters arising in connection with the conduct of its business activities. Many of these proceedings may be at preliminary stages and/or seek an indeterminate amount of damages. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, such routine claims and lawsuits are not significant and we do not currently expect them to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

Note 16 — Employee Benefit Plan

Effective March 2019, the Company sponsors a 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”) covering all employees. Prior to March 31, 2019, only Slacker employees were eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan. Employees are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan the first day of the calendar month following their date of hire. The Company may make discretionary matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of its employees up to a maximum of 100% of the participant’s elective deferral up to a maximum of 5% of the employees’ annual compensation. The Company’s matching contributions were not material to the financial statements for the three month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Note 17 — Stockholders’ Deficit 

Issuance of Restricted Shares of Common Stock for Services to Consultants and Vendors

The Company incurred $0.4 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities for stock earned by its consultants, but not yet issued. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $0.2 million is expected to be recorded over the next year as the shares vest.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $0.5 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities for stock earned by its consultants, but not yet issued.

Issuance of Common Stock to Certain Music Partner

In June 2020, the Company entered into a new two-year license agreement with a certain music partner which owns and license rights to Slacker to certain sound recordings. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company agreed to certain minimum yearly guarantee payments and issued 264,000 shares of its restricted common stock to such music partner in consideration of all payments due to the music partner prior the date of the agreement.

2016 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2016 Plan”) which reserved a total of 12,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance. On September 17, 2020, our stockholders approved the amendment to the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the plan by 5,000,000 shares increasing the total up to 17,600,000 shares, which plan we formally increased on June 29, 2021. Incentive awards authorized under the 2016 Plan include, but are not limited to, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance grants intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and stock appreciation rights. If an incentive award granted under the 2016 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to the Company in connection with the exercise of an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2016 Plan.

The Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $5.1 million and $2.9 million during the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The total tax benefit recognized related to share-based compensation expense was $0 for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Note 18 — Business Segment and Geographic Reporting

Management has determined that the Company has one operating segment. The Company’s reporting segment reflects the manner in which its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) reviews results and allocates resources. The CODM reviews operating segment performance exclusive of: share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, and other expenses (including legal fees, expenses, and accruals) related to acquisitions, associated integration activities, and certain other non-cash charges.

The Company’s single operating segment is also consistent with our internal organizational structure, the way we assess operating performance and allocate sources.

Customers

The Company has two external customers that accounts for more than 10% of its revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Such customers are an original equipment manufacturer (the “OEM”) who provides premium Slacker service in all of their new vehicles and a production customer in connection with the June 2021 Social Gloves event. In the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, total revenue from the OEM was $6.9 million and $6.1 million, respectively. In the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, total revenue from the production customer was $6.4 million and $0, respectively.

Geographic Information

The Company operates as an internet live music streaming platform based in the United States. All material revenues of the Company are derived from the United States. All long-lived assets of the Company are located in the United States.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company’s financial liabilities that are measured at Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company’s derivative instruments for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 (in thousands):

Bifurcated embedded derivative on senior secured convertible notes payable and unsecured convertible notes payable 

The fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivatives on senior secured convertible notes payable and unsecured convertible notes payable was determined using the following significant unobservable inputs:

Significant increases or decreases in the inputs noted above in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

The Company determined that as of the assessment date, the fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivatives is less than $0.1 million. The change in fair value of $0.1 million is recorded in other income (expense) on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021.

The Company did not elect the fair value measurement option for the following financial assets or liabilities. The fair values of certain financial instruments measured at amortized cost and the hierarchy level the Company used to estimate the fair values are shown below (in thousands):

The fair values of financial instruments not included in these tables are estimated to be equal to their carrying values as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021. The Company’s estimates of the fair values were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the estimated fair values.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities, where the Company did not elect the fair value measurement option, were determined using the following significant unobservable inputs:

Significant increases or decreases in the inputs noted above in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents primarily consisted of short-term interest-bearing money market funds with maturities of less than 90 days and time deposits. The estimated fair values were based on available market pricing information of similar financial instruments.

Due to their short maturity, the carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021.

The Company’s note payable is not publicly traded and fair value is estimated to equal carrying value. The Company’s debentures and unsecured convertible notes payable with fixed rates are not publicly traded and the Company has estimated fair values using a variety of valuation models and market rate assumptions detailed above. The senior convertible notes payable and unsecured convertible notes are valued using a binomial lattice model and a yield model with a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, respectively. The Company has estimated the fair value of contingent consideration related to the acquisitions of PodcastOne and CPS based on the number of shares issuable based on the achievement of certain provisions within the purchase agreement, as detailed in Note 4 – Business Combinations, using the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the balance sheet date.
