Company Overview

interCLICK, Inc. is a next-generation online display advertising network that combines complete data and inventory transparency with best in breed targeting solutions. Powered by our proprietary data-enrichment technology platform, Open Segment Manager (“OSM”), interCLICK develops coherent data strategies with agencies empowering them to discover which facts drive optimal campaign performance no matter what the objective is, and connecting them to their most valuable audiences at unprecedented scale.  We generate our revenue through the sale of online display advertising which is placed on third party publisher websites.

Industry Overview

According to ThinkEquity LLC, the non-premium display advertising sector is projected to be the highest-growth segment of the online advertising market.  For the period from 2008 to 2013, ThinkEquity LLC expects non-premium display to grow at a 22% compound annual growth rate. In its 2009 Internet Investment Guide, J.P. Morgan stated that it believed that performance-based advertising will continue to gain market share and that the recessionary environment will only accelerate its growth.  Lower ad budgets and economic concerns have made advertisers place a higher value on clear return on investments or ROIs.  Based on our current experience, advertisers’ focus on “return on ad spend” intensified with the weakened economy.  As such, we expect market share gains will accrue to those ad networks with the most advanced behavioral targeting capabilities.

Seasonality

Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations.  The fourth quarter of the calendar year, during the holiday season, is our strongest with respect to revenues.  While we are a relatively new company, our experience to date and our management’s knowledge of the advertising industry indicates that the first calendar quarter is our slowest quarter.  Because so many advertisers operate on a calendar year, advertising decisions tend to be put off until January when new budgets are implemented.  This has a tendency to reduce revenues for the first quarter compared to other quarters.
 
Customers

Our clients are shifting more of their marketing budgets from traditional media channels such as direct mail, television, radio and newspapers to the Internet because of increasing usage of the Internet by their potential customers.  We focus on providing measurable Internet marketing services to our clients in a way that protects and enhances their brands and their relationships with prospective customers.  In order to provide opportunities for advertisers, we buy display advertising impressions from publishers or companies that maintain websites and seek to monetize their websites through the sale of advertising.  In 2009, we derived more than 14% of our revenues from one customer.  In 2008, we derived more than 10% of our revenues from a different customer, which was not a 10% customer in 2007.  We deliver advertising campaigns for a wide variety of advertisers and advertising agency partners with no overwhelming concentration on any specific industry vertical.  As such, our existing advertiser base includes numerous industries including, but not limited to, consumer packaged goods, retail, electronics, Internet, computer software, automotive, travel, pharmaceuticals, wireless communications and the entertainment industry.

Sales and Marketing

We sell and market our solutions through our sales team of approximately two dozen experienced sales persons as of March 2010.  We carefully select industry-veteran sales managers adept at articulating our technically-driven, value-oriented solutions.  As part of our strategic plan, we opened sales offices in 2008 and early 2009 in Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco as complements to the sales team based in our New York head office.  We expect to increase our sales staff by more than 10% for the balance of 2010.

We believe that marketers are becoming increasingly focused on delivering specific and measurable results.  Our clients want to better understand how their marketing spending meets measurable objectives.

Competition
 
We face intense competition in the Internet advertising market from other online advertising and direct marketing networks for a share of client advertising budgets.  We expect that this competition will continue to intensify in the future as a result of industry consolidation, the maturation of the industry and low barriers to entry.  Additionally, we compete for advertising budgets with traditional media including television, radio, newspapers and magazines.  Furthermore, many of the advertising, media, and Internet companies possess greater resources and are more adequately capitalized than interCLICK.  We compete for business on the basis of a number of factors including ROI, price, access to targeted media, ability to deliver large volumes or precise types of customer prospects and reliability.
 
Our ability to compete depends upon several factors, including the following:
 
·
the timing and market acceptance of our new solutions and enhancements to existing solutions developed by us;

·
continuing our relationships with top quality publishers;

·
our customer service and support efforts;

·
our sales and marketing efforts; and

·
our ability to add value to our clients and remain price competitive.
 
Research and Development Expenses

We recognized research and development costs of $48,200 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  See below for discussion regarding our anticipated innovation-related expenses in 2010.

Regulation

In February 2009, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) issued informal guidance about companies like us that engage in behavioral targeting.  The essence of the report is that self regulation to protect privacy rights must occur or the FTC will declare certain practices to be unfair trade practices.  Our management viewed this FTC report as being favorable and believes its business model will not be adversely affected from self regulation.  Many states also have adopted what are commonly called “Little FTC Unfair Trade Practice Acts.” State Acts include the power to seek injunctions, triple damages and attorneys’ fees.

Employees

As of March 19, 2010, interCLICK had a total of 91 employees, of which 90 were full-time employees.  None of these employees is represented by a labor union.  Management believes that our relations with our employees are good.  At December 31, 2009, we had a total of 78 employees, of which 78 were full-time employees.
 
Corporate History and Acquisitions

We were formed in Delaware on March 4, 2002 under the name Outsiders Entertainment, Inc. On August 28, 2007, we completed a reverse merger and acquired Customer Acquisition Network, Inc.  In connection with the merger, we changed our name to Customer Acquisition Network Holdings, Inc.  Three days later, on August 31, 2007, we acquired Desktop Interactive, Inc. (“Desktop”).  On June 25, 2008, we changed our name to interCLICK, Inc.

On January 4, 2008, we acquired Options Newsletter, Inc., a privately-held Delaware corporation primarily engaged in the email service provider business. On June 23, 2008, we sold the Options Newsletter business to Options Media Group Holdings, Inc. (“OPMG”).

Intellectual Property
 
We currently rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual property rights.  We enter into proprietary information and confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and commercial partners and control access to, and distribution of, our software documentation and other proprietary information.

Headed by our Chief Technology Officer, we employ a team of more than 20 experienced technology specialists in our South Florida office.  Our technology and product management teams have developed a new state-of-the-art technology platform called OSM that we believe is the first data enrichment solution designed to help advertisers and agencies operationalize data effectively—to discover which facts drive optimal campaign performance, create more valuable audiences from those facts, and connect to those audiences at unprecedented scale.  This new solution is an enhancement to our current technology platform which is a leading solution providing advanced behavioral targeting and transparency.

We are now demonstrating our new OSM technology platform, and have been receiving positive feedback from our clients.  To continue further enhancing our platform and market our technology solutions, we plan to spend approximately $4 million in 2010 in compensation and employee-related costs for the approximately two dozen full-time equivalent employees focused on innovation-related efforts in 2010, including development of OSM.

Item 1A.        Risk Factors.

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.  See Item 7 for the principal risk factors facing interCLICK.

Item 1B.        Unresolved Staff Comments.
 
None.
 
Item 2.           Properties.

Our principal executive offices are located in a leased facility in New York, New York, consisting of approximately 5,786 square feet of office space under a lease that expires in December 2014.  This facility accommodates our principal sales, marketing, operations, finance and administrative activities.  Because of our rapid growth, we expect to move into new executive offices, consisting of 16,840 square feet, by the end of April 2010 and have an agreement to sublet our current executive offices.  Our technology offices are located in Boca Raton, Florida, consisting of approximately 7,810 square feet of office space under a lease that expires in February 2015.  We also lease sales offices in Chicago, Illinois (1,269 square feet), San Francisco, California (1,324 square feet), and Los Angeles, California (under 1,000 square feet).  Except for our current executive offices, we believe that our current facilities are sufficient for our current needs.  We intend to add new facilities and expand our existing facilities as we add employees and expand our markets, and we believe that suitable additional or substitute space will be available as needed to accommodate any such expansion of our operations.
 
Item 3.           Legal Proceedings.

           From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business.  We are not currently a party to any material litigation.

Item 6.           Selected Financial Data.
 
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
 
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including but not limited to those set forth under “Risk Factors” at the end of this Item 7 in this report.

This following discussion and analysis includes both financial measures in accordance with GAAP, as well as a non-GAAP financial measure, EBITDA. EBITDA represents operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, including stock-based compensation.  EBITDA should be viewed as supplemental to, and not as an alternative for, net income or loss, income or loss from operations or any other measure for determining operating performance or liquidity, as determined under GAAP. We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measure to net income. See page 10 of this report.

EBITDA is used by our management as an additional measure of our performance for purposes of business decision-making, including developing budgets and managing expenditures. Period-to-period comparisons of EBITDA helps our management identify additional trends in our financial results that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparisons of income or loss, or income or loss from operations. Our management recognizes that EBITDA has inherent limitations because of the excluded items, particularly those items that are recurring in nature.
 
We believe that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to investors in their analysis of our results for reasons similar to the reasons why our management finds it useful and because it helps facilitate investor understanding of decisions made by our management in light of the performance metrics used in making those decisions. In addition, we believe that providing EBITDA, together with a reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between interCLICK and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each company under applicable SEC rules.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 2008
 
Unless otherwise indicated, the following discussion relates to our continuing operations and does not include the operations of Options Acquisition which we sold in 2008.  We acquired that business in January 2008 and sold it in June 2008 resulting in a net loss on sale of $3,571,682, net of income taxes.
 
Revenues
 
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $55,258,703 from $22,452,333 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 146%.  The increase is primarily attributable to growth of our advertiser base through our expanded national sales force and through budget increases among existing advertisers.

interCLICK is particularly sensitive to seasonality given that the majority of its revenues are tied to CPM (cost-per-thousand) campaigns, which are strongest in the fourth quarter and weakest in the first quarter.  Despite the continued weakness of the broader economy in 2008 and 2009, the overall U.S. Internet audience based on comScore data expanded to 201,689,065 average monthly viewers in the fourth quarter of 2009, an increase of 5.8%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2008.  For the same period indicated, interCLICK experienced average monthly viewers growth of 6.0%, while revenues grew by 158%.

Given the continued overall growth in online advertising, coupled with other strategic initiatives undertaken by interCLICK, including the continued enhancement of our technology platform and our continued ability to acquire top tier advertising impressions from publishers, we expect to continue to increase our advertising customer base and revenues on a year-over-year basis.
 
Revenues from branded advertisers account for the substantial majority of our revenues.  During the year ended December 31, 2009, revenues from such advertisers accounted for more than 95% of revenues.
 
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
 
Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $30,072,627 from $15,634,096 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 92.4%.  The increase is primarily attributable to the growth in advertising campaigns requiring the purchase of appropriate levels of advertising impressions from publishers and higher third-party data fees. Cost of revenues is comprised primarily of the amounts we paid to website publishers on interCLICK’s online advertising network, amounts paid to third-party data providers, and ad serving and rich media expenses directly associated with a given campaign.  Cost of revenues represented 54.4% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 69.6% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is primarily attributable to: (1) improvements in our supply chain management platform, resulting in a better match between acquired advertising impressions and advertising campaign demand and (2) targeting efficiencies achieved through our proprietary technology platform.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $25,186,076 from $6,818,237 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 269%.  Our gross margin was 45.6% for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 30.4% for the year ended December 31, 2008.  While we expect gross profit to increase year-over-year in 2010, we expect gross margins will remain relatively consistent in the near-term.

Operating expenses consist of general and administrative, sales and marketing, technology support, and amortization of intangible assets.  These are discussed in further detail below.  Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $24,471,215 from $13,410,815 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 82.5%.  The increase is primarily attributable to headcount expansion at year end from 37 employees to 78 employees.  We expect to hire up to 50 new employees in 2010 to support the growth of our business and the ongoing innovation, development and marketing of OSM.  Approximately two dozen of our employees, for a total cost of approximately $4 million, will be spending the majority of their time on OSM in 2010.  Furthermore, we anticipate stock-based compensation expense of approximately $4 million in 2010.

General and Administrative  

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of executive, administrative, operations and product support compensation (including non-cash stock based compensation), facilities costs, insurance, depreciation, professional fees, investor relations fees and bad debt expense.  General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $12,296,404 from $8,351,612 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 47.2%.   General and administrative expenses represented 22.3% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 37.2% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation (including non-cash stock based compensation) for sales and marketing and related support resources, sales commissions and trade show expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $8,748,503 from $3,394,753 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 158%.   The increase is primarily attributable to our national sales-force expansion.  Sales and marketing expenses represented 15.8% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 15.1% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Technology Support

Technology support consists primarily of compensation (including non-cash stock based compensation) of technology support and related resources. Technology support and related resources have been directed primarily towards continued enhancement of our platform, our development of our new OSM platform, including integration of third party data providers, upgrades to our advertising serving platform, and ongoing maintenance and improvement of our technology infrastructure.  Technology support expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased to $3,237,528 from $1,245,942 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 160%. The increase is primarily attributable to expenditures necessary to support interCLICK’s increased business and our development of OSM. Technology support expenses represented 5.9% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 5.5% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets includes amortization of customer relationships, developed technology and a domain name acquired through the Desktop acquisition.  Amortization of intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased to $188,780 from $418,508 for the year ended December 31, 2008, a decrease of 54.9%.  The decrease is primarily attributable to the accelerated amortization applicable to acquired customer relationships in prior periods.   Amortization of intangible assets represented 0.3% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to 1.9% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $501,831 compared to a net loss of $(12,025,539) for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The change was attributable to strong revenue and gross profit growth, partially offset by higher operating expenses which grew at a slower pace than revenue.  Furthermore, the 2008 comparable period loss included a loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, of $(4,807,622), and equity in investee’s loss, net of income taxes, of $(653,231).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $3,099,810 and resulted primarily from an increase in accounts receivable of $14,704,746 and deferred tax assets of $2,654,946, partially offset by net income of $501,831, stock-based compensation of $3,394,299, other than temporary impairment of available-for-sale securities of $1,042,470, and increases in accounts payable of $5,645,429 and accrued expenses of $2,843,387.

Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $181,384 and resulted from $215,777 of purchases of property and equipment, offset by proceeds from the sale of OPMG stock of $34,393.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 was $16,001,281 and resulted primarily from proceeds of $13,776,670 from sales of common stock and warrants (net of offering expenses), and $1,657,947 received under our credit facility (net of repayments), and excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation of $879,579, partially offset primarily by the repayment of $400,000 of notes payable.  
 
On November 13, 2008, interCLICK entered into a revolving credit facility with Crestmark Commercial Capital Lending, LLC to finance certain eligible accounts receivables of interCLICK in an amount up to $3.5 million (subsequently increased to $4.5 million on February 3, 2009, increased to $5.5 million on April 30, 2009, and increased to $7.0 million on September 2, 2009).  The line of credit expires on May 12, 2010 and is secured by substantially all of the assets of interCLICK, except property and equipment financed elsewhere.

At December 31, 2009, interCLICK had working capital of $16,550,958, including $12,653,958 in cash and cash equivalents.  As of March 29, 2010, interCLICK had approximately $9,200,000 of cash and cash equivalents.  As our business has expanded, interCLICK has had positive EBITDA for the last five quarters. We discuss this non GAAP financial measure and its limitations under Company Overview above. interCLICK continues to expand and had very strong year-over-year revenue growth in each quarter of 2009.  Management anticipates that revenues will continue to increase through 2010.  In addition to our cash and cash equivalents, the unused amount under the Crestmark line of credit available was approximately $6,000,000 at March 29, 2010.  For all of these reasons, interCLICK expects that it has sufficient cash and borrowing capacity to meet its working capital needs for at least the next 12 months.

During 2009, we acquired $706,784 in capital assets, including $491,007 through conventional capital leases to further enhance the features and scale of our technology assets, which is necessary both to support the realization of growth objectives as well as to advance interCLICK’s present competitive position.  During 2010, we expect to acquire approximately $1,500,000 in capital assets, the majority of which will be obtained in the first quarter and financed through capital leases.

Related Party Transactions

No related party transactions had a material impact on our operating results.  See Notes 7 and 14 to our consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.
 
Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, those related to the valuation of accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts, purchase price fair value allocation for business combinations, estimates of depreciable lives and valuation of property and equipment, valuation and amortization periods of intangible assets and deferred costs, valuation of goodwill, valuation of discounts on debt, valuation of derivatives, valuation of investment in available-for-sale securities, valuation of common shares, options and warrants granted for services or recorded as debt discounts or other non-cash purposes including business combinations, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, estimates of the tax effects of business combinations and sale of subsidiary, and estimates in equity investee’s losses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

In response to the SEC’s financial reporting release, FR-60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies”, the Company has selected a more subjective accounting estimation processes for purposes of explaining the methodology used in calculating estimates, in addition to the inherent uncertainties pertaining to the estimate and the possible effects on interCLICK’s financial condition. The accounting estimates are discussed below. These estimates involve certain assumptions that if incorrect could create a material adverse impact on the interCLICK’s results of operations and financial condition.  See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

           With the recent economic recession, management is particularly attentive to the length account receivable collection cycles and the attendant possibility of an increase in bad debts.  However, as collection performance improved during 2009, management reduced bad debt reserves at December 31, 2009, to $383,188 or 1.7% of gross accounts receivable, as compared to $425,000, or 5.6% of gross accounts receivable, as of December 31, 2008.

Management is sensitive to the carrying value of the 7,156,085 OPMG shares held on the balance sheet at $715,608 at December 31, 2009. These shares are valued based on a private transaction in November 2009, rather than the quoted market price.  Historically, management has found that private transactions are among the most economically feasible ways to sell any portion of the Company’s investment in OPMG.  In the future, we may attempt to sell some OPMG shares in the open market which could materially reduce the carrying value of our investment.  See Notes 6 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements.

 Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including those relating to our liquidity, our belief that we have sufficient cash and borrowing capacity to meet our working capital needs for the next 12 months, our expectations regarding gross profit, gross margins, capital expenditures, our expectations regarding increasing our headcount and sales force, our expectations regarding stock-based compensation expense and our belief that our software permits advertisers to obtain more value.  Additionally, words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes,” “will” and similar words are used to identify forward-looking statements.

Some or all of the results anticipated by these forward-looking statements may not occur.  Important factors, uncertainties and risks that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Risk Factors which follow, the impact of intense competition, the continuation or worsening of current economic conditions, a potential decrease in corporate advertising spending, a potential decrease in consumer spending and the condition of the domestic and global credit and capital markets. Additionally, these forward-looking statements are presented as of the date this Form 10-K is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not intend to update any of these forward-looking statements.

RISK FACTORS

There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals.  If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially adversely affected.  In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Relating to the Company

Because we have a limited operating history to evaluate our company, the likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delay frequently encountered by an early-stage company.

Since we have a limited operating history it will make it difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our business and prospects.  You must consider our prospects in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties we face as an early stage company with a limited operating history.  Investors should evaluate an investment in our company in light of the uncertainties encountered by early-stage companies in an intensely competitive industry.  There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will be able to maintain profitability.

If we cannot manage our growth effectively, we may not maintain profitability.

Businesses which grow rapidly often have difficulty managing their growth.  If our business continues to grow as rapidly as we have since August 2007 and as we anticipate, we will need to expand our management by recruiting and employing experienced executives and key employees capable of providing the necessary support.

We cannot assure you that our management will be able to manage our growth effectively or successfully.  Our failure to meet these challenges could cause us to lose money, which will reduce our stock price.

Because of the severity of the global economic recession, our customers may delay in paying us or not pay us at all.  This would have a material and adverse effect on our future operating results and financial condition.

One of the effects of the severe global economic recession is that businesses are tending to maintain their cash resources and delay in paying their creditors whenever possible.  As a trade creditor, we lack leverage unlike secured lenders and providers of essential services.  Should the economy further deteriorate, we may find that either advertisers, their representative agencies or both may delay in paying us.  Additionally, we may find that advertisers will reduce Internet advertising which would reduce our future revenues.  These events would result in a number of adverse effects upon us including increasing our borrowing costs, reducing our gross profit margins, reducing our ability to borrow under our line of credit, and reducing our ability to grow our business.  These events would have a material and adverse effect upon us.

Because we expect to need additional capital to fund our growing operations, we may not be able to obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our operations.

We expect that as our business continues to grow we will need additional working capital. In addition to the proceeds we received from our 2009 registered public offering, we have available $7,000,000 accounts receivable factoring line of credit with a commercial lender which expires in May 2010.   We are currently evaluating our options with respect to extending this line of credit on similar terms with this lender or obtaining a new line of credit elsewhere. This lender is privately-held and we have no access to any information about its financial condition.  Because of the severe impact that the recession has had on the financial services sector, we may be adversely affected in our ability to draw on our line of credit, replace this line of credit or increase the amount we can borrow.  The slowdown in the global economy and the freezing of the credit markets may adversely affect our ability to raise capital.  If adequate additional debt and/or equity financing is not available on reasonable terms or at all, we may not be able to continue to expand our business, and we will have to modify our business plans accordingly.  These factors would have a material and adverse effect on our future operating results and our financial condition.

Even if we secure additional working capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are acceptable to us.  Any future equity capital financings will dilute existing shareholders.  In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock.  We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.

If advertising on the Internet loses its appeal, our revenue could decline.  

 Our business model may not continue to be effective in the future for a number of reasons, including the following: click and conversion rates have always been low and may decline as the number of advertisements and ad formats on the Internet increases; companies may prefer other forms of Internet advertising we do not offer, including certain forms of search engine placements; companies may reject or discontinue the use of certain forms of online promotions that may conflict with their brand objectives; companies may not utilize online advertising due to concerns of "click-fraud", particularly related to search engine placements; regulatory actions may negatively impact certain business practices that we currently rely on to generate a portion of our revenue and profitability; and, perceived lead quality may diminish.  If the number of companies who purchase online advertising from us does not continue to grow, we may experience difficulty in attracting publishers, and our revenue could decline.

 If we fail to manage our supply of display advertising impressions (also referred to as “publishing inventory”) and third party data partnerships effectively, our profit margins could decline and should we fail to acquire additional publishing inventory our growth could be impeded.

Our success depends in part on our ability to manage our existing publishing inventory and third party data partnerships effectively.  Our publishers are not bound by long-term contracts that ensure us a consistent supply of display advertising space, which we refer to as inventory.  In addition, publishers can change the amount of inventory they make available to us at any time.  If a publisher decides not to make publishing inventory from its websites available to us, we may not be able to replace this inventory with that from other publishers with comparable traffic patterns and user demographics quickly enough to fulfill our advertisers’ requests, thus resulting in potentially lost revenues.  Additionally, if a third-party data provider stopped offering their data to us, we may not be able to replace this data with another data provider of equal or better effectiveness.  Our ability to maintain our existing data partnerships, as well as attract new data partners, will depend on various factors, some of which are beyond our control.

We expect that our advertiser customers’ requirements will become more sophisticated as the Internet continues to mature as an advertising medium.  If we fail to manage our existing publisher inventory effectively to meet our advertiser customers’ changing requirements, our revenues could decline.  Our growth depends on our ability to expand our publisher inventory.  To attract new customers, we must maintain a consistent supply of attractive publisher inventory.  We intend to expand our inventory by selectively adding to our network new publishers that offer attractive demographics, innovative and quality content and growing web user traffic.  Our ability both to retain current as well as to attract new publishers to our network will depend on various factors, some of which are beyond our control.  These factors include, but are not limited to: our ability to introduce new and innovative services, our efficiency in managing our existing publisher inventory and our pricing policies.  We cannot assure you that the size of our publisher inventory will increase or remain constant in the future.

If the technology that we currently use to target the delivery of online advertisements and to prevent fraud on our network is restricted or becomes subject to regulation, our expenses could increase and we could lose customers or advertising inventory.

The FTC has issued guidelines recommending that Internet advertising firms that engage in behavioral targeting implement industry-wide self-regulation in order to protect the privacy of consumers who use the Internet.  If notwithstanding this report, the FTC were in the future to issue regulations, it may adversely affect what we perceive to be a competitive advantage.  This could increase our costs and reduce our future revenues.

If we make acquisitions, it could divert management’s attention, cause ownership dilution to our shareholders and be difficult to integrate.

Following our acquisition of Desktop in August 2007, we have grown rapidly.  We expect to continue to evaluate and consider future acquisitions.  Acquisitions generally involve significant risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of operations, services, technologies, and corporate culture of the acquired companies, diversion of management's attention from other business concerns, overvaluation of the acquired companies, and the acceptance of the acquired companies’ products and services by our customers.  Acquisitions may not be successful, which can have a number of adverse effects upon us including adverse financial effects and may seriously disrupt our management’s time.  The integration of our acquired operations, products and personnel may place a significant burden on management and our internal resources.  The diversion of management attention and any difficulties encountered in the integration process could harm our business.

It may be difficult to predict our financial performance because our quarterly operating results may fluctuate.

Our revenues, operating results and valuations of certain assets and liabilities may vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control.  You should not rely on period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of our future performance.  Our results of operations may fall below the expectations of market analysts and our own forecasts.  If this happens, the market price of our common stock may fall significantly.  The factors that may affect our quarterly operating results and valuations of certain assets and liabilities include the following:

fluctuations in demand for our advertising solutions or changes in customer contracts;

fluctuations in the amount of available advertising space on our network;
 
the timing and amount of sales and marketing expenses incurred to attract new advertisers;

the impact of our recent substantial increase in headcount to meet expected increases in revenue for 2010;

fluctuations in our average ad rates (i.e., the amount of advertising sold at higher rates rather than lower rates);

fluctuations in the cost of online advertising and in the cost and/or amount of data available for behavioral targeting campaigns;

seasonal patterns in Internet advertisers’ spending;

worsening economic conditions which cause advertisers to reduce Internet spending and consumers to reduce their purchases;
     
 
increases in our investment in new technology;

changes in the regulatory environment, including regulation of advertising or the Internet, that may negatively impact our marketing practices;

the timing and amount of expenses associated with litigation, regulatory investigations or restructuring activities, including settlement costs and regulatory penalties assessed related to government enforcement actions;
 
any changes we make in our Critical Accounting Estimates described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this report;
     
 
 
the valuation of available-for-sale securities may deteriorate further;
 
the adoption of new accounting pronouncements, or new interpretations of existing accounting pronouncements, that impact the manner in which we account for, measure or disclose our results of operations, financial position or other financial measures; and

costs related to acquisitions of technologies or businesses.

Expenditures by advertisers also tend to be cyclical, reflecting overall economic conditions as well as budgeting and buying patterns.  Any decline in the economic prospects of advertisers or the economy generally may alter advertisers’ current or prospective spending priorities, or may increase the time it takes us to close sales with advertisers, and could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 
14

 

If we fail to retain our key personnel, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our business could suffer.

Our future depends, in part, on our ability to attract and retain key personnel and the continued contributions of our executive officers, each of whom may be difficult to replace. In particular, Michael Mathews, Chief Executive Officer, Michael Katz, President, Andrew Katz, Chief Technology Officer, Roger Clark, Chief Financial Officer, Jason Lynn, Chief Strategy Officer, and Dave Myers, Executive Vice President of Operations are important to the management of our business and operations and the development of our strategic direction.  The loss of the services of Messrs. Mathews, Michael Katz, Andrew Katz, Clark, Lynn and Myers and the process to replace any key personnel would involve significant time and expense and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.

Our two largest shareholders may be able to exert significant control over our business and affairs and may have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of our other shareholders.

Our Co-Chairmen of the Board own a substantial number of shares of our common stock.  The interests of such persons may differ from the interests of other shareholders.  As a result, in addition to their positions with us, such persons may be able to have significant influence over all corporate actions requiring shareholder approval, irrespective of how our other shareholders may vote, including their ability to:

elect or defeat the election of our directors;

amend or prevent amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and

control the outcome of any other matter submitted to the shareholders for vote.

Their power to control the designation of directors gives them the ability to exert influence over day-to-day operations. In addition, such persons’ stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.
 
Because government regulation of the Internet may subject us to additional operating restrictions and regulations, our business and operating results may be adversely affected.
 
Companies engaging in online search, commerce and related businesses face uncertainty related to future government regulation of the Internet.  Due to the rapid growth and widespread use of the Internet, federal and state governments are enacting and considering various laws and regulations relating to the Internet.  Furthermore, the application of existing laws and regulations to Internet companies remains somewhat unclear.  Our business and operating results may be negatively affected by new laws, and such existing or new regulations may expose us to substantial compliance costs and liabilities and may impede the growth in use of the Internet.  Additionally, our third party data partners may be adversely affected by any new or existing laws. 
 
The application of these statutes and others to the Internet search industry is not entirely settled.  Further, several existing and proposed federal laws could have an impact on our business and our third party data partners’ business:
 
•             The Digital Millennium Copyright Act and its related safe harbors, are intended to reduce the liability of online service providers for listing or linking to third-party websites that include materials that infringe copyrights or other rights of others.
 
•             The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and certain state laws are intended to regulate interstate commerce by imposing limitations and penalties on the transmission of unsolicited commercial electronic mail via the Internet.
 
•             There have been several bills introduced in the Congress in recent years relating to protecting privacy.  As with any change in Presidential administration, especially to one more likely to protect privacy, new legislation in this area may be enacted.
 
•             Adopted and pending consumer protection and privacy legislation, including the FTC Online Behavioral Advertising Principles referred to in a prior risk factor.
 
With respect to the subject matter of each of these laws, courts may apply these laws in unintended and unexpected ways.  As a company that provides services over the Internet, we may be subject to an action brought under any of these or future laws governing online services.  We may also be subject to costs and liabilities with respect to privacy issues.  Several Internet companies have incurred costs and paid penalties for violating their privacy policies.  Further, it is anticipated that new legislation may be adopted by federal and state governments with respect to user privacy.  Additionally, foreign governments may pass laws which could negatively impact our business or may prosecute us for our products and services based upon existing laws.  The restrictions imposed by and cost of complying with, current and possible future laws and regulations related to our business could harm our business and operating results.  Further, any such laws that affect our third party data partners could indirectly harm our business and operating results.

If we are subject to legal claims, and/or government enforcement actions and held liable for our or our customers’ failure to comply with federal, state and foreign laws, regulations or policies governing consumer privacy, it could materially harm our business and damage our reputation.  

Recent growing public concern regarding privacy and the collection, distribution and use of information about Internet users has led to increased federal, state and foreign scrutiny and legislative and regulatory activity concerning data collection and use practices.  The United States Congress currently has pending legislation regarding privacy and data security measures (e.g., S. 495, the “Personal Data Privacy and Security Act of 2007”).  Any failure by us to comply with applicable federal, state and foreign laws and the requirements of regulatory authorities may result in, among other things, indemnification liability to our customers and the advertising agencies we work with, administrative enforcement actions and fines, class action lawsuits, cease and desist orders, and civil and criminal liability.  Recently, class action lawsuits have been filed alleging violations of privacy laws by Internet service providers.  The European Union's directive addressing data privacy limits our ability to collect and use information regarding Internet users.  These restrictions may limit our ability to target advertising in most European countries.  Our failure to comply with these or other federal, state or foreign laws could result in liability and materially harm our business.

In addition to government activity, privacy advocacy groups and the technology and direct marketing industries are considering various new, additional or different self-regulatory standards.  This focus, and any legislation, regulations or standards promulgated, may impact us adversely.  Governments, trade associations and industry self-regulatory groups may enact more burdensome laws, regulations and guidelines, including consumer privacy laws, affecting our customers and us.  Since many of the proposed laws or regulations are just being developed, and a consensus on privacy and data usage has not been reached, we cannot yet determine the impact these proposed laws or regulations may have on our business.  However, if the gathering of profiling information were to be curtailed, Internet advertising would be less effective, which would reduce demand for Internet advertising and harm our business.

Third parties may bring class action lawsuits against us relating to online privacy and data collection.  We disclose our information collection and dissemination policies, and we may be subject to claims if we act or are perceived to act inconsistently with these published policies.  Any claims or inquiries could be costly and divert management's attention, and the outcome of such claims could harm our reputation and our business.

Our customers are also subject to various federal and state laws concerning the collection and use of information regarding individuals.  These laws include the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, the federal Drivers Privacy Protection Act of 1994, the privacy provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the federal CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, as well as other laws that govern the collection and use of consumer credit information.  We cannot assure you that our customers are currently in compliance, or will remain in compliance, with these laws and their own privacy policies.  We may be held liable if our customers use our technologies in a manner that is not in compliance with these laws or their own stated privacy policies.

If we are not able to protect our intellectual property from unauthorized use, it could diminish the value of our products and services, weaken our competitive position and reduce our revenues.

Our success depends in large part on our proprietary demographic, behavioral, contextual, geographic and retargeting technologies.  In addition, we believe that our trademarks are key to identifying and differentiating our products and services from those of our competitors.  We may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and police our intellectual property rights.  If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the value of our products and services could be diminished and our competitive position may suffer.

We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to establish and protect our proprietary rights.  Third-party software providers could copy or otherwise obtain and use our technologies without authorization or develop similar technologies independently, which may infringe upon our proprietary rights.  We may not be able to detect infringement and may lose competitive position in the market before we do so.  In addition, competitors may design around our technologies or develop competing technologies.  Intellectual property protection may also be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries.

We generally enter into confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, consultants, vendors, customers, and corporate partners, and generally control access to and distribution of our technologies, documentation and other proprietary information.  Despite these efforts, unauthorized parties may attempt to disclose, obtain or use our products and services or technologies.  Our precautions may not prevent misappropriation of our products, services or technologies, particularly in foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States.

If we become involved in lawsuits relating to our intellectual property rights, it could be expensive and time consuming, and an adverse result could result in significant damages and/or force us to make changes to our business.

We rely on trade secrets to protect our intellectual property rights. If we are sued by a third party which alleges we are violating its intellectual property rights or if we sue a third party for violating our rights, intellectual property litigation is very expensive and can divert our limited resources.  We may not prevail in any litigation.  An adverse determination of any litigation brought by us could materially and adversely affect our future results of operations by either reducing future revenues or increasing future costs.  Additionally, an adverse award of money damages could affect our financial condition.

Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by disclosure during this type of litigation.  In addition, during the course of this kind of litigation, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions or other interim proceedings or developments in the litigation.  If securities analysts or investors perceive these results to be negative, it could have an adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock.

If we are not able to respond to the rapid technological change characteristic of our industry, our services may not be competitive.

The market for our services is characterized by rapid change in business models and technological infrastructure, and we will need to constantly adapt to changing markets and technologies to provide competitive services.  We believe that our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to develop our services for both our target market and for applications in new markets.  We may not, however, be able to successfully do so, and our competitors may develop innovations that render our services uncompetitive.

If our computer systems fail to operate effectively in the future, we may incur significant costs to remedy these failures and may sustain reduced revenues.

Our success depends on the continuing and uninterrupted performance of our computer systems. Sustained or repeated system failures that interrupt our ability to provide services to customers, including failures affecting our ability to deliver advertisements quickly and accurately and to process visitors’ responses to advertisements, would reduce significantly the attractiveness of our solutions to advertisers and publishers.  Our business, results of operations and financial condition could also be materially and adversely affected by any systems damage or failure that impacts data integrity or interrupts or delays our operations.  Our computer systems are vulnerable to damage from a variety of sources, including telecommunications failures, power outages and malicious or accidental human acts.  Any of the above factors could substantially harm our business resulting in increased costs.  Moreover, despite network security measures, our servers are potentially vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses and similar disruptive problems in part because we cannot control the maintenance and operation of our third-party data centers.  Any of these occurrences could cause material interruptions or delays in our business, result in the loss of data, render us unable to provide services to our customers, and expose us to material risk of loss or litigation and liability.  If we fail to address these issues in a timely manner, it may materially damage our reputation and business causing our revenues to decline.
 
Computer viruses could damage our business.

Computer viruses, worms and similar programs may cause our systems to incur delays or other service interruptions and could damage our reputation and ability to provide our services and expose us to legal liability, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and the trading price of our common stock.

Because our third-party servers are located in South Florida, in the event of a hurricane our operations could be adversely affected.

We rely upon servers owned by third parties which are located in South Florida where our technology offices are located.  Because South Florida is in a hurricane-sensitive area, we are susceptible to the risk of damage to our servers.  This damage can interrupt our ability to provide services.  If damage caused to our servers were to cause them to be inoperable for any amount of time, we would be forced to switch hosting facilities which could be more costly.  We are not insured against any losses or expenses that arise from a disruption or any short-term outages to our business due to hurricanes or tropical storms.

Since we rely on third-party co-location providers, a failure of service by these providers could adversely affect our business and reputation.

We rely upon third party co-location providers to host our main servers.  In the event that these providers experience any interruption in operations or cease operations for any reason or if we are unable to agree on satisfactory terms for continued hosting relationships, we would be forced to enter into a relationship with other service providers or assume hosting responsibilities ourselves.  If we are forced to switch hosting facilities, we may not be successful in finding an alternative service provider on acceptable terms or in hosting the computer servers ourselves.  We may also be limited in our remedies against these providers in the event of a failure of service. In the past, short-term outages have occurred in the service maintained by co-location providers which could recur.  We added a fully-redundant co-location facility in the Washington D.C. area in the first quarter of 2010 to mitigate the single point of failure risk. We also rely on third-party providers for components of our technology platform.  A failure or limitation of service or available capacity by any of these third-party providers could adversely affect our business and reputation.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud and our business may be harmed and our stock price may be adversely impacted.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. Any inability to provide reliable financial reports or to prevent fraud could harm our business.  The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires management to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  We determined that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009.  In order to continue to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we are required to continuously evaluate and, where appropriate, enhance our policies, procedures and internal controls.  If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we could be subject to litigation or regulatory scrutiny and investors could lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports.  We cannot assure you that in the future we will be able to fully comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or that management will conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective.  If we fail to fully comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our business may be harmed and our stock price may decline.

Risks Relating to our Common Stock

Due to factors beyond our control, our stock price may be volatile.

Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our common stock:

·
Actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly results of operations;
·
Our failure to meet financial analysts’ performance expectations;
·
Our failure to meet or exceed our own publicly-disclosed forecasts;
·
Our failure to achieve and maintain profitability;
·
Short selling activities;
·
The loss of major advertisers, publishers or data providers;
·
Announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new products, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
·
The departure of key personnel;
·
Regulatory developments;
·
Changes in market valuations of similar companies; or
·
The sale of a large amount of common stock by shareholders owning large positions.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted.  A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s time and attention, which would otherwise be used to benefit our business.

Because the majority of our outstanding shares are freely tradable, sales of these shares could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is performing well.

As of March 29, 2010, we had outstanding 23,694,272 shares of common stock of which our directors and executive officers own approximately 4.4 million shares which are subject to the limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  Almost all of the remaining outstanding shares are freely tradable.  The restricted shares, not held by our directors or executive officers, will be eligible for sale under Rule 144 on various dates beginning in April 2010 through September 2010.

In general, Rule 144 provides that any non-affiliate of ours, who has held restricted common stock for at least six-months, is entitled to sell their restricted stock freely, provided that we stay current in our filings with the SEC.

An affiliate of interCLICK may sell restricted stock after six months or unrestricted stock with no holding period with the following limitations:

(i)
we are current in our SEC filings,
(ii)
certain manner of sale provisions,
(iii)
filing of Form 144, and
(iv)
volume limitations limiting the sale of shares within any three-month period to a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the total number of outstanding shares or, the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice of sale.

Because the majority of our outstanding shares are freely tradable and the shares held by our affiliates may be freely sold (subject to the Rule 144 limitations), sales of these shares could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is performing well.

Delaware law contains anti-takeover provisions that could deter takeover attempts that could be beneficial to our stockholders.  

Provisions of Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law may make the acquisition of the Company and the removal of incumbent officers and directors more difficult by prohibiting stockholders holding 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock from acquiring the Company, without our board of directors' consent, for at least three years from the date they first hold 15% or more of the voting stock.

Disclosure Controls

We carried out an evaluation required by Rule 13a-15 under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
  
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed in an issuer's reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of our objectives and processes and effect on the information generated for use in this report.  This type of evaluation is done quarterly so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of these controls can be reported in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.  We intend to maintain these controls as processes that may be appropriately modified as circumstances warrant.

Based on their evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information which is required to be included in our periodic reports filed with the SEC as of the end of the period covering this report.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f).  Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the criteria set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009.

However, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the benefits of controls relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

This report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform, an audit on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company strengthened its internal control and review procedures with respect to accounting for stock compensation, including subsequently entering into an agreement with a third-party equity administration software provider.  There were otherwise no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our Board has determined that Messrs. Cravatt, Brauser and Honig are independent under the NASDAQ Stock Market Listing Rules.

Audit Committee
 
The Audit Committee’s primary role is to review our accounting policies and any issues which may arise in the course of the audit of our financial statements. The Audit Committee selects our independent registered public accounting firm, approves all audit and non-audit services, and reviews the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also reviews the audit and non-audit fees of the auditors. Our Audit Committee is also responsible for certain corporate governance and legal compliance matters including internal and disclosure controls and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. The members of the Audit Committee are Brett Cravatt, Michael Brauser and Barry Honig. Our Board has determined that Messrs. Cravatt and Brauser are each qualified as an Audit Committee Financial Expert, as that term is defined by the rules of the SEC and in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Board has determined that Messrs. Cravatt, Brauser and Honig are independent in accordance with the NASDAQ Stock Market independence standards for audit committees.

Compensation Committee

The function of the Compensation Committee is to review and recommend the compensation of benefits payable to our officers, review general policies relating to employee compensation and benefits and administer our various stock option plans. The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Cravatt, Brauser and Honig.

Nominating Committee

The purpose and responsibilities of the Nominating Committee include the identification of individuals qualified to become Board members, the selection or recommendation to the Board of nominees to stand for election as directors, the oversight of the evaluations of the Board and management, and review with the Board from time to time the appropriate skills and characteristics required of Board members in the context of the current make-up of the Board, including issues of diversity, age, skills such as understanding of technology, finance and marketing. The members of the Nominating Committee are Messrs. Cravatt, Brauser and Honig.
 
Code of Ethics
 
Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Although not required, the Code of Ethics also applies to our directors. The Code of Ethics provides written standards that we believe are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships, full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure and compliance with laws, rules and regulations, including insider trading, corporate opportunities and whistle-blowing or the prompt reporting of illegal or unethical behavior. A request for a copy, free of charge, can be made in writing to interCLICK, Inc. 257 Park Avenue South, Suite 602, New York, NY 10010 Attention: Mr. Michael Mathews.

Board Diversity

While we do not have a formal policy on diversity, our Board considers diversity to include the skill set, background, reputation, type and length of business experience of our Board members as well as a particular nominee’s contributions to that mix.  Although there are many other factors, the Board seeks individuals with experience on public company boards as well as experience with Internet marketing, legal and accounting skills.

Board Assessment of Risk

Our risk management function is overseen by our Board.  Through our policies, our Code of Ethics and our Board committees’ review of financial and other risks, our management keeps our Board apprised of material risks and provides our directors access to all information necessary for them to understand and evaluate how these risks interrelate, how they affect interCLICK, and how management addresses those risks.  Mr. Mathews, a director and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Clark, our Chief Financial Officer, work closely together with the Board once material risks are identified on how to best address such risk.  If the identified risk poses an actual or potential conflict with management, our independent directors may conduct the assessment. Presently, the primary risks affecting interCLICK include our ability to continue increasing market share in an intensely competitive online advertising market, successfully execute  our business strategy and deploy a differentiated technology solution, and effectively raise sufficient capital as we scale our business. The Board focuses on these key risks and interfaces with management on seeking solutions.

Board Structure
 
Since we acquired Desktop in August 2007, our Board has separated the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.  Since that time, Messrs. Michael Brauser and Barry Honig have acted as our Co-Chairmen and Mr. Michael Mathews has acted as our Chief Executive Officer.  Separating these positions allows Mr. Mathews to focus on our day-to-day business while allowing the Co-Chairmen of the Board to lead the Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to management and acting as an independent oversight of management.  Because of our rapid growth, we believe that this leadership structure is appropriate for us. While our Bylaws and corporate governance guidelines do not require that our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions be separate, the Board believes having these separate positions and having two independent outside directors serve as Co-Chairmen is the appropriate leadership structure for interCLICK at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance.

Shareholder Communications
 
Although we do not have a formal policy regarding communications with the Board of Directors, shareholders may communicate with the Board by writing to us interCLICK, Inc., 257 Park Avenue South, Suite 602, New York, NY 10010 Attention: Mr. Michael Mathews, or by facsimile (646) 558-1225. Shareholders who would like their submission directed to a member of the Board may so specify, and the communication will be forwarded, as appropriate.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our common stock with the SEC.  Based on the information available to us during 2009, we believe that all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements were met on a timely basis.

Item 11.          Executive Compensation.

The following information is related to the compensation paid, distributed or accrued by us for 2009 and 2008 to our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the two other most highly compensated executive officers serving at the end of the last fiscal year whose compensation exceeded $100,000 (the “Named Executive Officers”).

Named Executive Officer Compensation
 
Michael Mathews. Effective on June 28, 2007, we entered into an employment agreement with Michael Mathews, to serve as our Chief Executive Officer. In accordance with the employment agreement, Mr. Matthews was paid a base salary of: (i) $325,000 in his first year of employment, (ii) $340,000 in his second year of employment, and (iii) currently receives $355,000 in his third year of employment, and will receive an agreed upon salary for all future years of employment. In addition to a base salary, Mr. Mathews is eligible to receive an annual performance bonus based upon the achievement of pre-established performance milestones tied to our revenues and earnings of which at least half would be paid in cash and the remaining in interCLICK stock. If performance milestones are met, Mr. Mathews’ bonus will be 50% of his base salary for the year the milestone was met.  For 2009, Mr. Mathews received a $177,500 bonus, of which $149,167 was paid in February 2010.  Additionally, we agreed in 2007 to (i) pay his former employer $100,000, (ii) pay a $50,000 relocation fee and (iii) guarantee a $50,000 minimum bonus payment. Also in 2007, Mr. Mathews received 700,000 shares of vested founders stock and was granted 725,000 stock options vesting in quarterly increments over three years exercisable at $2.00 per share.  In February 2009, Mr. Mathews received 100,000 fully-vested stock options, exercisable at $1.52 per share.

In February 2009, Mr. Katz’s base salary was increased to $300,000.  Under his agreement, he also received a $75,000 signing bonus and a bonus based on pre-established performance milestones half payable in stock and half in cash. If the performance milestone is met, it shall equal 30% of his base salary for that year.  In March 2010, the Board approved an amendment to his agreement increasing the target bonus to 50%.  In the event that the Board and Mr. Katz are unable to agree on a mutually acceptable performance milestone, Mr. Katz will receive a guaranteed annual bonus for such fiscal year of not less than 15% of his base salary. In his sole discretion, Mr. Katz may elect to receive such annual bonus in capital stock at the basis determined by our Board.  For 2009, Mr. Katz received a $150,000 bonus, of which $90,000 was paid in March 2010.  Additionally on August 31, 2007, Mr. Katz was granted 150,000 stock options vesting annually on each over a four year period exercisable at $2.00 per share which are now fully vested.

Andrew Katz. Effective March 3, 2008, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Andrew Katz, our Chief Technology Officer. The current term of his agreement expires on March 3, 2011 but will be automatically renewed for additional one-year periods until either we or Mr. Katz gives the other party written notice of its intent not to renew at least 60 days prior to the end of the then current term. Mr. Katz was paid a base salary of $225,000 in his first year of employment, currently receives $247,500 and will continue to receive a 10% increase on each one-year anniversary of entering into the agreement. Under his agreement, he is entitled to receive a bonus based on pre-established performance milestones of which at least half would be payable in cash and the remainder in interCLICK stock. If the performance milestone is met, it shall equal 50% of his base salary for that year. For 2008, Mr. Katz received a cash bonus of $56,250 paid in 2009 and 28,125 shares of restricted stock to vest semi-annually over four years.  On October 14, 2009, we agreed to modify the vesting of these shares from vesting semi-annually to vesting each calendar quarter.  For 2009, Mr. Katz received a $123,750 bonus which was paid in February 2010. Mr. Katz was granted 50,000 stock options exercisable at $2.00 per share vesting annually over four years beginning September 21, 2008.  In 2008, Mr. Katz was granted 100,000 stock options exercisable at $5.90 per share vesting annually over four years beginning March 3, 2009.

Generally, Good Reason in the above agreements include the material diminution of the executives’ duties, any material reduction in base salary without consent, the relocation of the geographical location where the executive performs services or any other action that constitutes a material breach by interCLICK under the employment agreements.

Mr. David Garrity, who served as our Chief Financial Officer from June 30, 2008 until August 7, 2009, was receiving a base salary of $235,000 when he resigned. His employment agreement provided for six months of base salary and benefits in the event that he was terminated without cause (which he was). In order to ensure his continued availability during the transition period, we entered into a six month consulting agreement with Mr. Garrity which paid him the full amount of his severance and his stock options continued to vest while he served as a consultant.

Applicable percentages are based on 23,694,272 shares outstanding adjusted as required by rules of the SEC.  Beneficial ownership is determined under the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities that can be acquired by such person within 60 days whether upon the exercise of options or otherwise.  Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants and convertible notes currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days after the date of this report are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding such securities but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, interCLICK believes that each of the shareholders named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock indicated as beneficially owned by them.

Item 13.          Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
 
In connection with our acquisition of Desktop, we were obligated to pay an additional $1,000,000 upon Desktop achieving certain revenue milestones.  On October 5, 2007 and September 20, 2008, Michael Katz, our President and a director, was paid $643,000 and $357,000, respectively.  Included in our revenues for 2008 was approximately $43,000 from a company controlled by Michael Katz.  

On September 26, 2008, Barry Honig and GRQ Consultants, Inc. 401(k) (an entity controlled by Mr. Honig) loaned interCLICK a total of $1,300,000 and we issued to each $650,000 6% promissory notes.  The notes were secured by a first priority security interest in shares held by us in OPMG.  On November 26, 2008, we repaid the note issued to Mr. Honig.  On December 31, 2008, we repaid $250,000 of the principal amount owed to GRQ and extended the due date of the remaining $400,000 from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009.  On June 5, 2009, the Board of Directors approved an extension of the due date of $100,000 of the note from June 30, 2009 until December 31, 2009.  In addition, this $100,000 note which was previously not convertible was made convertible by replacing it with a 6% unsecured note, convertible at $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar events.  In consideration for extending the due date on the $100,000 note and in lieu of a cash payment for interest, we issued GRQ a total of 21,055 shares of common stock with a combined value of $25,266.  On June 22, 2009, we repaid $100,000 of the remaining $300,000 non-convertible note and extended the due date of this remaining $200,000 non-convertible note to December 31, 2009.  On August 19, 2009, we repaid all of the principal and interest owed under the $200,000 note.  On September 29, 2009, we repaid the remaining $100,000 note.
 
Item 14.          Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

Our Audit Committee reviews and approves audit and permissible non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm J.H. Cohn LLP (“Cohn”) as well as the fees charged for such services. In its review of non-audit service and its appointment of Cohn as our independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining independence.  Salberg & Co., P.A. (“Salberg”) was our independent registered public accounting firm for 2008 and provided services in 2009 until Cohn was appointed.  Salberg’s services in 2009 consisted of the review of interCLICK's financial statements for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2009 and review of the August 2009 registration statement, the fees for which totaled $86,000.

All of the services provided and fees charged by Cohn and Salberg were approved by the Audit Committee. The following table shows the principal accountant fees for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
interCLICK, Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of interCLICK, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of interCLICK, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009, and their results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for certain of its warrants in the period ended December 31, 2009.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders' of:
interCLICK, Inc. (Formerly Customer Acquisition Network Holdings, Inc.)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of interCLICK, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statement of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of interCLICK, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company reported a net loss of $12,025,539 and used cash in operating activities of $4,151,028 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and had a working capital deficiency and an accumulated deficit of $1,438,181 and $15,258,506, respectively, at December 31, 2008.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans as to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

Note 1. Nature of Operations

Overview 
 
interCLICK, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed in Delaware on March 4, 2002 under the name Outsiders Entertainment, Inc.

On August 28, 2007, the Company closed an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “CAN Merger Agreement”) and acquired Customer Acquisition Network, Inc. (“CAN”), a privately-held corporation formed in Delaware on June 14, 2007. In connection with this acquisition, the Company changed its name to Customer Acquisition Network Holdings, Inc. On June 25, 2008, the Company changed its name to interCLICK, Inc.

On August 31, 2007, the Company closed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Desktop Merger”), wherein the Company acquired Desktop Interactive, Inc. (“Desktop Interactive”), a privately-held Delaware corporation engaged in the Internet advertising business. Desktop Interactive merged with and into Desktop Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Desktop”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Desktop was the surviving corporation. Desktop was formed in Delaware on August 24, 2007.

interCLICK is an online display advertising network powered by a proprietary data-enrichment technology platform. The substantial majority of interCLICK’s revenues are derived from agreements with advertising agencies that develop digital media campaigns on behalf of branded advertisers. Such advertising campaigns target online users on hundreds of website publishers across more than a dozen product and service categories. Virtually all of the Company’s revenues are generated in the United States.

All references to the Company’s outstanding shares, options, warrants and per share information have been adjusted to give effect to the one-for-two reverse stock split effective October 23, 2009.

Merger with Options Newsletter

On January 4, 2008, the Company closed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Options Merger”), wherein the Company acquired Options Newsletter, Inc. (“Options Newsletter”). Options Newsletter merged with and into Options Acquisition Sub, Inc. (“Options Acquisition”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Options Acquisition was the surviving corporation. On June 23, 2008, Options Acquisition was sold to Options Media Group Holdings, Inc (“OPMG”).
 
Options Acquisition began selling advertising space within free electronic newsletters that were published and emailed to subscribers. Options Acquisition also generated leads for customers by emailing its customers’ advertisements to various email addresses from within the Options Acquisition database. Options Acquisition was also an email service provider (“ESP”) and offered customers an email delivery platform to create, send and track email campaigns. During the period from January 4, 2008 to June 23, 2008 (date of disposition), the majority of Options Acquisition’s revenue was derived from being an ESP, but Options Acquisition continued to publish newsletters as well as email customer advertisements on a cost per lead generated basis.

The initial merger consideration with respect to the Options Merger (the “Options Merger Consideration”) included $1.5 million in cash of which $150,000 was held in escrow pending passage of deferred representation and warranty time period and 500,000 shares of common stock valued at $11.44 per share. The total initial purchase price was $7,395,362 and included cash of $1,500,000, 500,000 shares of common stock valued at $5,717,273, legal fees of $73,920, valuation service fees of $25,000, brokers’ fees of $50,000 and 5,000 warrants valued at $29,169 with an exercise price of $11.14 per share. The shares of the Company’s stock issued in conjunction with the Options Merger were subject to a 12-month lockup.
 
In addition to the initial merger consideration, the Company was obligated to pay $1 million (the “Earn-Out”) if certain gross revenues were achieved for the one year period subsequent to the Options Merger payable 60 days after the end of each of the quarters starting with March 31, 2008. For the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, the Company incurred $279,703 and $221,743, respectively, in Earn-Out. On September 30, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the seller whereby the Company agreed to pay the remaining $498,554 of Earn-Out (See Note 12 “Settlement with Former Owner of Options Newsletter”). The $1,000,000 Earn-Out increased the purchase price and is included as an adjustment to goodwill in the purchase price allocation below.

INTERCLICK, INC. (FORMERLY CUSTOMER ACQUISITION NETWORK HOLDINGS, INC.) AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

The Company accounted for the acquisition utilizing the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Options Acquisition were included in the consolidated results of operations of the Company beginning on January 1, 2008. The operations from January 1, 2008 to January 4, 2008 were not material. The net purchase price, including acquisition costs paid, and adjusted for the total Earn-Out to be paid as part of the September 30, 2008 settlement with the seller, was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

Current assets (including cash of $41,424)
  $ 58,153  
Property and equipment
    112,289  
Other assets (Software)
    67,220  
Goodwill (adjusted for Earn Out)
    8,020,450  
Other Intangibles
    660,000  
Liabilities assumed
    (258,750 )
Deferred tax liability
    (264,000 )
Net purchase price
  $        8,395,362  

Intangible assets acquired include customer relationships valued at $610,000 and $50,000 for a covenant not to compete. Goodwill is expected not to be deductible for income tax purposes.

In connection with the purchase of Options Acquisition, the Company executed a three-year employment agreement with the former owner of Options Newsletter to pay him $250,000 per year plus 150,000 stock options which were to vest one-third at the end of each of three years and are exercisable at $2.00 per share. On September 30, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the former owner whereby all 150,000 stock options became fully vested immediately and exercisable as follows: 50,000 stock options became exercisable as of January 15, 2009 and 100,000 stock options became exercisable as of September 30, 2009 (See Note 12 “Settlement with Former Owner of Options Newsletter”). Accordingly, the remaining unrecognized portion of the fair value of the stock options of $962,829 was recognized and included in loss from discontinued operations as of September 30, 2008 (See Note below).

Divestiture of Options Newsletter

On June 23, 2008, the Company, as the sole stockholder of Options Acquisition entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Options Divestiture”) by and among, Options Media Group Holdings, Inc. (“OPMG”), Options Acquisition and Options Acquisition Corp., a newly formed, wholly owned Delaware subsidiary of OPMG.

At the closing of the Options Divestiture on June 23, 2008, the Company, as Options Acquisition’s sole stockholder, received (i) 12,500,000 shares of OPMG’s stock (the “OPMG shares”), (ii) $3,000,000 in cash and (iii) a $1,000,000 senior secured promissory note receivable from OPMG (the “Note”). The OPMG shares were valued at $3,750,000 using a price of $0.30 per share, which was based on a private placement for OPMG shares that was occurring at the same time of the Options Divestiture. The Note bore interest at 10%, was due December 23, 2008, and was secured by a first priority security interest in OPMG and its active subsidiaries’ assets. On July 18, 2008, OPMG paid the Company $1,006,164 representing the full principal and accrued interest on the Note.

The loss from the Options Divestiture is included in loss on sale of discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 and is calculated as follows:

Regarding the net book value of the subsidiary sold, the asset contributed to Options Acquisition in the above table consisted of an inventory of qualified data for use by the Company in email advertising purchased from a customer for $350,000 and contributed to Options.
 
For tax purposes, the Options Newsletter acquisition was treated as a tax free exchange and the Company initially had a carryover tax basis of $238,000.  For book reporting purposes, the acquisition was recorded at fair market value based on the value of the Company's stock issued in exchange for Options Newsletter stock.  Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company contributed assets to Options Newsletter while operating losses were generated.  At the time of the Options Divestiture, the Company’s book basis was approximately $7.2 million greater than its tax basis, thus resulting in a provision (rather than a benefit) for income tax purposes.
 
As a result of the Options Divestiture and the cash proceeds received by the Company, the Company paid down $2,750,000 of the balance on that certain promissory note dated November 15, 2007 (the “Longview Notes”), among the Company, CAN, Desktop (the “Subsidiaries”) and Longview Marquis Master Fund, L.P., (“Longview”). The remaining balance of the Longview Notes as of June 23, 2008 (giving effect to the increase in principal described under the “Amendment Agreement” below) was $1,773,573. The Company had also pledged the OPMG shares to Longview, in order to secure the remaining balance of the Longview Notes. As of September 30, 2008, all principal and accrued interest on the Longview Notes had been repaid (See Note 7).

On September 30, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the former owner of Options Newsletter to settle all amounts due under the $1 million Earn-Out and his employment agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay $600,000 upon execution of the settlement agreement and $500,000, paid in two equal installments on October 30, 2008 and January 15, 2009. The $1,100,000 in payments was discounted to a net present value of $1,090,230 using a discount rate of 12%. In addition, all stock options previously granted to the former owner became fully vested immediately. As a result of the settlement, the additional loss from discontinued operations was $1,053,059 and the additional loss on sale of discontinued operations was $507,104 for the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the balance of the payable and promissory note settlement liability was $248,780. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had paid the entire balance of the payable and promissory note settlement liability.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of our consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our consolidated financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. Significant estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts, purchase price fair value allocation for business combinations, estimates of depreciable lives and valuation of property and equipment, valuation and amortization periods of intangible assets and deferred costs, valuation of goodwill, valuation of discounts on debt, valuation of derivatives, valuation of investment in available-for-sale securities, valuation of shares of common stock, options and warrants granted for services or recorded as debt discounts or other non-cash purposes including business combinations, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, estimates of the tax effects of business combinations and sale of subsidiary, and estimates in equity investee’s losses.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of interCLICK, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary and Options Newsletter through its sale date. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As a result of the Options Divestiture, the results of Options Newsletter are reported as “Discontinued Operations”.

Segment Information

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic Segment Reporting 280-10 (“ASC 280-10”) establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial statements. During 2009 and 2008, the Company only operated in one segment; therefore, segment information has not been presented.

Business Combinations

The Company accounted for acquisitions prior to January 1, 2009 utilizing the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the total consideration paid, including certain costs incurred to effect the transaction, was allocated to the underlying assets and liabilities, based on their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value of certain acquired assets and liabilities, identifiable intangible assets in particular, is subjective in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to: estimates of revenue growth rates, determination of appropriate discount rates, estimates of advertiser and publisher turnover rates, and estimates of terminal values. These assumptions are generally made based on available historical information. Definite-lived identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis, as this basis approximates the expected cash flows from the Company’s existing definite-lived identifiable intangible assets. Business combinations consummated after December 31, 2008 shall be accounted for under the acquisition method specified in ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
 
Trade accounts receivables are non-interest bearing and are stated at gross invoice amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable.

INTERCLICK, INC. (FORMERLY CUSTOMER ACQUISITION NETWORK HOLDINGS, INC.) AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential bad debts.
 
The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as bankruptcy proceedings and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended period beyond contractual terms. In these cases, the Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record a specific allowance for those customers against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The amounts calculated are analyzed to determine the total amount of the allowance. The Company may also record a general allowance as necessary.

Direct write-offs are taken in the period when the Company has exhausted its efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivables or otherwise evaluate other circumstances that indicate that the Company should abandon such efforts.

Advertising

The Company conducts advertising for the promotion of its services. In accordance with ASC Topic 720.35.25, advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising costs aggregated $208,270 and $107,163 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets per the following table. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Intangible Assets

The Company records the purchase of intangible assets not purchased in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” and records intangible assets acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations”.
 
Customer relationships are amortized based upon the estimated percentage of annual or period projected cash flows generated by such relationships, to the total cash flows generated over the estimated three-year life of the customer relationships. Accordingly, this results in accelerated amortization in which the majority of costs is amortized during the two-year period following the acquisition date of the intangible. Developed technology is being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. The domain name is being amortized over its remaining life at acquisition date of six months.

Goodwill

As of December 31, 2009, goodwill amounted to $7,909,571, all of which resulted from the August 31, 2007 merger with Desktop. The Company tests goodwill for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”. Accordingly, goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or whenever events or circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has determined its reporting units consisted of interCLICK and Desktop and determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of goodwill was required.

Investment in Available-For-Sale Marketable Securities

The Company invests in various marketable equity instruments and accounts for such investments in accordance with ASC Topic 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities”. Trading securities are carried at fair value, with any unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Investments classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost. In determining realized gains and losses, the cost of the securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

The Company accounts for investments in which the Company owns more than 20% of the investee, using the equity method in accordance with ASC Topic 323, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures". Under the equity method, an investor initially records an investment in the stock of an investee at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor's share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition. The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income by the investor, and such amount reflects adjustments similar to those made in preparing consolidated statements including adjustments to eliminate intercompany gains and losses, and to amortize, if appropriate, any difference between investor cost and underlying equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment. The investment of an investor is also adjusted to reflect the investor's share of changes in the investee's capital. Dividends received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary and which should be recognized even though the decrease in value is in excess of what would otherwise be recognized by application of the equity method.

Certain securities that the Company may invest in may be determined to be non-marketable. Non-marketable securities where the Company owns less than 20% of the investee are accounted for at cost pursuant to ASC Topic 323.10.35.36.

Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of acquisition and reevaluates such determination at each quarterly balance sheet date.

The Company periodically reviews its investments in marketable and non-marketable securities and impairs any securities whose value is considered non-recoverable. The Company's determination of whether a security is other than temporarily impaired incorporates both quantitative and qualitative information. GAAP requires the exercise of judgment in making this assessment for qualitative information, rather than the application of fixed mathematical criteria. The Company considers a number of factors including, but not limited to, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, the reason for the decline in fair value, changes in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date, and other factors specific to the individual investment. The Company's assessment involves a high degree of judgment and accordingly, actual results may differ materially from the Company's estimates and judgments.

Long-Lived Assets

Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property Plant and Equipment,” which generally requires the assessment of these assets for recoverability when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists. Events and circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to: significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant changes in the use of the assets, significant negative industry or economic trends, a significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period of time, and changes in the Company’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets. If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair market value of the assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed or determinable, no significant Company obligations remain, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

Revenues consist of amounts charged to customers, net of discounts, credits and amounts paid or due under revenue sharing arrangements, for actions on advertisements placed on our publisher vendor’s websites. The Company’s revenue is recognized in the period that the advertising impressions, click-throughs or actions occur, when lead-based information is delivered or, provided that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and prices are fixed or determinable. Additionally, consistent with the provisions of ASC Topic 605.45, the Company recognizes revenue as a principal. Accordingly, revenue is recognized on a gross basis.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses for the purchase of advertising impressions from publishers and third party data. The Company becomes obligated to make payments related to such expenses in the period the advertising impressions, click-throughs, actions or lead-based information are delivered or occur. Such expenses are classified as cost of revenue in the corresponding period in which the revenue is recognized in the accompanying statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. Excluded from the scope of ASC Topic 820 are certain leasing transactions accounted for under ASC Topic 840, “Leases.” The exclusion does not apply to fair value measurements of assets and liabilities recorded as a result of a lease transaction but measured pursuant to other pronouncements within the scope of ASC Topic 820.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year, and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A liability (including interest if applicable) is established in the consolidated financial statements to the extent a current benefit has been recognized on a tax return for matters that are considered contingent upon the outcome of an uncertain tax position. Applicable interest and penalties are included as a component of income tax expense and income taxes payable.

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2009, the tax years 2006 through 2008 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years. We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740 on our inception date of June 14, 2007.

The Company follows the provisions of the predecessor to ASC Topic 740.10.25.09, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. The term “effectively settled” replaces the term “ultimately settled” when used to describe recognition, and the terms “settlement” or “settled” replace the terms “ultimate settlement” or “ultimately settled” when used to describe measurement of a tax position under ASC Topic 740. Topic 740.10.25.09 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic No. 718. For employee stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes method for stock options and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock for unrestricted shares; the expense is recognized over the service period for awards expected to vest. For non-employee stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of grant in the same manner as employee awards, however, the awards are revalued at the end of each reporting period and the prorata compensation expense is adjusted accordingly until such time the nonemployee award is fully vested, at which time the total compensation recognized to date shall equal the fair value of the stock-based award as calculated on the measurement date, which is the date at which the award recipient’s performance is complete. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience.

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, and, if dilutive, potential shares outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options, stock warrants, nonvested shares of common stock, and convertible debt instruments.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the accompanying 2008 financial statements have been reclassified at December 31, 2009. In particular, bad debt expense is now included in general and administrative expenses. Merger, acquisition and divestiture costs are now included in general and administrative expenses. Ad serving costs have been reclassified from general and administrative costs to cost of revenues. Whereas certain compensation costs (including stock-based compensation) had been included in sales and marketing expenses, a portion of these costs have been reclassified to either general and adminstrative expenses or technology support expenses. Deferred revenue is now included in accrued expenses. The following table shows the reclassifications to the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) as currently reported by the Company adjusted for other comprehensive items. Other comprehensive items for the Company consist of unrealized gains and losses related to the Company's equity securities accounted for as available-for-sale with changes in fair value recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity.

Discontinued Operations

On June 23, 2008, the Company completed the sale of its Options Acquisition subsidiary pursuant to an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization. The amounts associated with the sale of this subsidiary are reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, in accordance with ASC Topic 820. In addition, certain allocable corporate expenses pertaining to Options Acquisition are also included in discontinued operations.

Accounting for Derivatives

The Company evaluates its options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle

On January 1, 2009, the Company determined that certain of its warrants previously issued contain round-down protection (price protection) and such instruments are not considered indexed to a company’s own stock because neither the occurrence of a sale of shares of common stock by the Company at market nor the issuance of another equity-linked instrument with a lower strike price is an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. Accordingly, the warrants with price protection qualify as derivatives and need to be separately accounted for as a liability under ASC Topic 815. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle has been applied retrospectively and has been recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity. The cumulative-effect adjustment amounts recognized in the balance sheet as a result of the initial adoption of this policy were determined based on the amounts that would have been recognized if the policy had been applied from the issuance date of the instrument. As a result of the accounting change, the accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2009 decreased from $15,258,506, as originally reported, to $13,814,054 and additional paid-in capital decreased from $24,908,509, as originally reported, to $23,044,043.

Research and Development

In accordance with ASC Topic 730, “Research and Development”, expenditures for research and development of the Company's technology are expensed when incurred, and are included in operating expenses under Technology support. The Company recognized research and development costs of $48,200 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Codification Update

In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard that became part of ASC Topic 855-10, “Subsequent Events” which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC Topic 855 sets forth (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. ASC Topic 855 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC Topic 855 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard ASC 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, whereby the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC” or “Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. ASC Topic 105 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in ASC Topic 105. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The Codification did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value”. ASU 2009-05 provided amendments to ASC 820-10, including clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using certain techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of a liability. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. Adoption of ASU 2009-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (amendments to FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition)” (“ASU 2009-13”) and ASU 2009-14, “Certain Arrangements That Include Software Elements, (amendments to FASB ASC Topic 985, Software)” (“ASU 2009-14”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2009-13 or ASU 2009-14 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. This update provides amendments to Topic 820 that will provide more robust disclosures about (1) the different classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, (2) the valuation techniques and inputs used, (3) the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, and (4) the transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2010-06 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. This update addresses both the interaction of the requirements of Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, with the SEC’s reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosures provision related to subsequent events (paragraph 855-10-50-4). The amendments in this update have the potential to change reporting by both private and public entities, however, the nature of the change may vary depending on facts and circumstances. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2010-09 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

At the closing of the Options Divestiture on June 23, 2008, the Company, as Options Acquisition’s sole stockholder, received as part of the divestiture 12,500,000 shares of OPMG’s stock. The OPMG shares were valued at $3,750,000 using a price of $0.30 per share, which was based on a private placement for OPMG shares that was occurring at the same time of the Options Divestiture. From June 23, 2008 forward, the Company accounted for the investment in OPMG under the equity method until September 18, 2008, at which time the Company’s ownership percentage fell to below 20% and the Company lost significant influence and control over the investee. From June 23, 2008 through September 18, 2008, the Company recognized an aggregate of $653,231 of its proportionate share of the investee losses. During that same period, the Company sold an aggregate of 4.7 million OPMG shares having a basis of $1,180,496 for proceeds of $1,034,000, resulting in a loss of $146,496. On September 30, 2008, the Company gave to a vendor 100,000 OPMG shares having a basis of $24,568 in order to settle $54,611 of accounts payable, resulting in a gain of $30,042.

DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

In May and November 2009, the Company sold an aggregate of 0.3 million OPMG shares having a basis of $89,625 for proceeds of $34,392, resulting in a loss of $55,233. While the OPMG closing stock price on December 31, 2009 was $0.07 per share, management has deemed private transactions to be the most advantageous market for orderly sales of the Company’s investment in OPMG. In November 2009, and again in January 2010, the Company sold some of its shares of OPMG to an unrelated third party for $0.10 per share. Accordingly, the Company has utilized the $0.10 per share price from the November 2009 sale to value its remaining 7.2 million OPMG shares resulting in a fair value of $715,608 as of December 31, 2009. The Company has determined that the decline in the fair value of its investment in OPMG below its cost basis is other than temporary as of December 31, 2009, based on the extent and length of time over which the market value has been less than cost as well as due diligence inquiries the Company made relating to OPMG’s prospects. Accordingly, the Company has recognized an other than temporary impairment related to its investment in the OPMG shares of $1,042,470 in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009. As a result of this determination, the Company maintains a $0 unrealized loss on available-for-sale equity securities in the stockholders’ section of the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Note 7. Notes Payable – Related Party, Factor Agreement and Capital Lease Obligations

Notes Payable – Related Party

In November 2007, pursuant to a purchase agreement we sold senior secured promissory notes (the “Longview Notes”) in the original aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000. We received net proceeds in the amount of $4,500,000 net of $500,000 of an Original Issue Discount upon the sale of the Longview Notes. The Longview Notes were to mature on May 30, 2008 and bore interest at the rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly in cash. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the Longview Notes first, to pay expenses and commissions related to the sale of the Longview Notes and second, for the general working capital needs and acquisitions of companies or businesses reasonably related to Internet marketing and advertising. In addition, the Purchase Agreement contained certain customary negative covenants, including, without limitation, certain restrictions (subject to limited exceptions) on (i) the issuance of variable priced securities, (ii) purchases and payments, (iii) limitations on prepayments, (iv) incurrence of indebtedness, (v) sale of collateral, (vi) affiliate transactions and (vii) the ability to make loans and investments.

In consideration for the loan, the lender purchased 75,000 shares of common stock at $0.02 per share from a third party stockholder of the Company. On such date, the closing trading price of the Company's common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board was $10.70. The purchase of the shares of common stock at a favorable price from such third party stockholder was a material inducement for the loan. Accordingly, under U.S. GAAP, of the $4.5 million received by the Company in connection with the sale of the senior notes to the lender, $802,500 was allocated to the value of the shares of common stock sold to the lender as if such shares of common stock were contributed to the Company by the third party and then reissued by the Company in connection with the transactions.

The resulting aggregate debt discount of $1,352,500 (consisting of the original issue discount of $500,000, lender fees of $50,000 and the 75,000 shares of common stock valued at $802,500) was being amortized to interest expense over the original term of the debt through May 30, 2008. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2008 totaled $1,104,377, of which $940,456 is included in interest expense and $163,921 is included in discontinued operations.

On May 5, 2008, $611,111 of the $5,000,000 Longview Notes and was paid by the issuance of 152,750 shares of common stock and 76,375 five-year warrants exercisable at $5.00 per share having an aggregate value of $611,000, which was based on a private placement of similar securities of the Company occurring at the time of settlement. The net book value of the debt at the date of settlement was $588,404, resulting in a loss on settlement of $22,707 (consisting of the unamortized debt discount at the date of settlement), of which $20,121 was included in other income (expense) and $2,586 was included in loss from discontinued operations.

In addition, the Company incurred legal and other fees associated with the issuance of the Longview Notes. Such fees of $91,437 were included in deferred debt issue costs and were amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. Amortization of the deferred costs for the year ended December 31, 2008 totaled $77,505, of which $66,134 is included in interest expense and $11,371 is included in discontinued operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

On May 30, 2008, the Company paid a one-time cash fee in the amount of $50,000 to extend the maturity date on the Longview Notes from May 30, 2008 to June 13, 2008. Accordingly, $44,524 is included in interest expense and $5,476 is included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2008.

On June 17, 2008, the Company paid a one-time cash fee in the amount of $50,000 (the “Extension Amount”) to extend the maturity date on the Longview Notes from June 13, 2008 until June 20, 2008. The Extension Amount was credited against the outstanding principal balance as a result of the Options Divestiture.

On June 23, 2008, the Company utilized proceeds from the Options Divestiture in order to pay $2,750,000 of the balance on the Longview Notes pursuant to an amendment agreement. The remaining balance of the Longview Notes as of June 23, 2008 (giving effect to an increase in principal of $134,684 pursuant to an amendment agreement) was $1,773,573. Also, the maturity date of the Longview Notes was extended to August 30, 2008 and the interest rate was increased from 8% to 12%. The Company also pledged its OPMG shares to Longview, in order to secure the remaining balance of the Longview Notes. The resulting debt discount of $134,684 was amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. Amortization of the new debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $134,684, all of which is included in interest expense.

As of September 30, 2008, all principal and accrued interest on the Longview Notes had been repaid.

On September 26, 2008, we sold senior secured promissory notes (the “GRQ Notes”) in the original aggregate principal amount of $1,300,000 to one of our Co-Chairmen. The GRQ Notes bore interest at the rate of 6% per annum and initially matured December 31, 2008. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the GRQ Notes to repay the Longview Notes. The Company pledged the OPMG shares as collateral on the GRQ Notes. On November 26, 2008, the Company repaid $650,000 of the GRQ Notes. On December 30, 2008, the Company and the noteholder entered into an agreement whereby the noteholder agreed to extend the maturity date of the note to June 30, 2009 (all other terms remained the same) provided the Company make a principal payment of $250,000 on the remaining note by December 31, 2008. On December 30, 2008, the Company made said payment, thus reducing the principal balance to $400,000 and extending the maturity date to June 30, 2009.

On June 5, 2009, the Company and the noteholder agreed to extend the maturity date for $100,000 of the notes payable from June 30, 2009 to December 31, 2009. In exchange, this portion of the notes payable was converted to a 6% unsecured convertible note, convertible at the rate of $4.00 per share. The modification of this debt instrument was substantial and, therefore under GAAP, the debt was deemed to be replaced with new debt. The conversion feature was the only consideration given to the noteholder for the maturity date extension. As the conversion feature’s exercise price exceeded the quoted trade price of the underlying stock at the date of the modification, it did not have any intrinsic value. Accordingly, the Company did not record any entries pertaining to the aforementioned replacement of the noteholder’s debt. On September 29, 2009, the entire principal amount of the convertible note payable of $100,000 was repaid.

On June 22, 2009, the Company repaid $100,000 of the remaining $300,000 of senior secured promissory note payable. In addition, the Company and the noteholder agree to extend the maturity date for the remaining $200,000 of the notes payable from June 30, 2009 to December 31, 2009. In exchange, the noteholder received 5,000 shares of common stock having a fair value of $12,000, which was treated as debt discount and was being amortized over the remaining term of the debt. Additionally, the Company issued 5,528 shares of common stock in lieu of cash as payment for $13,266 of accrued interest related to the notes payable. On August 19, 2009, the entire principal amount of the senior secured note payable of $200,000 was repaid along with a portion of the accrued interest of $1,874. Accordingly, the remaining unamortized portion of the debt discount of $11,500 was recognized as interest expense at that time.

Accrued interest related to above notes at December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $0 and $16,948, respectively.

Factor Agreement

The Company factors its trade accounts receivable, with recourse, pursuant to a revolving credit facility. In October 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank (“Silicon”) to finance up to 80% of the Company’s accounts receivable up to a maximum credit line of $3 million. The Silicon credit facility had an interest rate equal to prime plus 2.0% and was secured by all of the Company’s assets except property and equipment financed elsewhere and the Company’s investment in OPMG shares, which had been pledged to secure the GRQ Notes. Due to the recourse provision, the factoring arrangement was accounted for as a secured borrowing. During 2008, the Company factored approximately $2.5 million of its accounts receivable with Silicon, of which approximately $2.0 million was received in advances. The Silicon facility was repaid in 2008.

On November 13, 2008, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility, in the form of an Accounts Receivable Financing Agreement (the “Agreement”), with Crestmark Commercial Capital Lending, LLC (“Crestmark”) to finance certain eligible accounts receivable of the Company, as defined in the Agreement, up to a maximum credit line of $3.5 million (subsequently increased to $4.5 million on February 3, 2009, $5.5 million on April 30, 2009, and to $7.0 million on September 2, 2009), which would represent gross factored accounts receivable less a 20% reserve holdback by Crestmark. The Crestmark credit facility has an interest rate equal to prime plus 1.0% (overall interest rate of 4.75% at December 31, 2009) and is secured by all of the Company’s assets except property and equipment financed elsewhere and the Company’s investment in OPMG shares.  In addition, the Company pays a monthly fee (initially 0.575% and decreased to 0.375% on September 2, 2009) per 30 days on each factored invoice amount until the invoice is paid.  The Crestmark credit facility was for an initial term of six months expiring May 12, 2009 (extended on March 3, 2009 for one year to May 12, 2010) and renews automatically unless terminated by either party not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to the next anniversary date.  The balance due on the Crestmark credit facility at December 31, 2009 was $4,208,667, which is net of the 20% reserve of $1,052,167 that is presented as Due from factor, a current asset.  The unused amount under the line of credit available to the Company at December 31, 2009 was $2,791,333.  The average monthly balance due under the Crestmark facility was $3,848,334 for the year ended December 31, 2009, and $2,203,240 for the two months ended December 31, 2008 (as the credit facility began on November 13, 2008).

Note 8. Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.  Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) as well as nonvested shares of common stock and convertible debt.  The options, warrants and nonvested shares are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share when their effect is dilutive.  Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.  Accordingly, potentially dilutive securities for the year ended December 31, 2008 have not been included in the calculation of the diluted net loss per share as such effect would have been anti-dilutive.  As a result, the basic and diluted net loss per share amounts for the year ended December 31, 2008 are identical.

A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.  Accordingly, a valuation allowance was established in 2008 for the full amount of our deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realization.  For 2009, the Company utilized approximately $4.6 million of net operating loss carryforwards.  Management believes that based upon its projection of future taxable operating income for the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize the tax benefit associated with  deferred tax assets.  However, certain deferred tax assets relate to investment transactions for which management does not believe that it is more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets will be realized and, therefore, a full valuation allowance has been established on those assets as of December 31, 2009.  The net change in the valuation allowance during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was a decrease of $1,886,452 and an increase of $1,940,945, respectively.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had $1,176,784 of net operating loss carryforwards which will expire from 2027 to 2028.  At December 31, 2009, the Company had $92,795 of alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards which do not expire.

The Company’s effective income tax expense (benefit) differs from the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% as follows:

As part of the allocation of purchase price associated with the Desktop Merger (see Note 1), a deferred tax liability of $556,000 was established as a result of differences between the book and tax basis of acquired intangible assets.

As part of the allocation of the purchase price associated with the Options Merger (see Note 1), a deferred tax liability of $264,000 was established as a result of differences between the book and tax basis of acquired intangible assets.  Upon completion of the Options Divestiture, the entire deferred tax liability was recognized as a deferred tax benefit in operations, which ultimately increased the loss on sale from discontinued operations and decreased the loss from discontinued operations.

As a result of certain realization requirements under ASC Topic 718, the table of deferred tax assets and liabilities shown above does not include certain deferred tax assets at December 31, 2008 that arose directly from tax deductions related to equity compensation in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes.  Additional paid-in capital increased by $879,579 as a result of the realization of these deferred tax assets during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company uses tax law ordering for purposes of determining when excess tax benefits have been realized.  Under the tax law ordering method, a company looks to the provisions within the tax law for determining the sequence in which the net operating losses are utilized for tax purposes.

Note 10. Stockholders’ Equity
 
Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock having a par value of $0.001 per share, of which none was issued and outstanding at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Common Stock

DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

On April 30, 2008, as a result of the issuance by the Company of shares at a price below $5.00 per share and warrants at an exercise price below $5.50 per share, the Company issued an additional 37,500 shares and five-year warrants to purchase 7,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, pursuant to price protection clauses contained within the subscription agreements.  In addition, the five-year warrants to purchase 75,000 shares at an exercise price of $5.50 per share were also repriced to $5.00 per share.  As the additional issuances of equity instruments stemmed from a capital transaction, there is no effect on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.  Accordingly, the activity was recorded by an increase in common stock of $37 with a corresponding decrease in additional paid-in capital.

On May 5, 2008, the Company settled $611,111 of the original $5,000,000 Longview Notes payable by issuance of 152,750 shares of common stock and five-year warrants to purchase 76,375 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share having an aggregate value of $611,000, which was based on a private placement price of $4.00 per unit for similar securities occurring at the time of settlement.  The net book value of the debt at the date of settlement was $588,404, resulting in a loss on settlement of $22,707, of which $20,121 was included in other income (expense) and $2,586 was included in loss from discontinued operations.

On May 28, 2008, the Company issued 30,000 shares of common stock having a fair value of $189,000 (based on a quoted trading price of $6.30 per share) to an investor relations firm in exchange for services to be rendered over a three-month period.  Accordingly, $189,000 has been expensed during the year ended December 31, 2008.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company amortized $178,481 of deferred equity-based expense related to warrants.

During the period from May 18, 2009 through June 17, 2009, the Company entered into separate agreements with investors that had purchased equity units in the Company during 2008.  These equity units had consisted of shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock, both of which contained price protection clauses.  As a result of these agreements, the Company issued 352,500 shares in exchange for (i) the elimination of price protection on 650,000 shares, (ii) the elimination of price protection on warrants to purchase 314,940 shares and (iii) the repricing of warrants to purchase 272,565 shares from an exercise price of $5.00 per share to $2.80 per share.  Accordingly, the warrant derivative liability was valued at the date of the agreements relinquishing the price protection clauses and the difference was recorded as warrant derivative liability expense in the accompanying statements of operations.  As a result of the shares issued in connection with the elimination of round-down protection for the warrants, an additional $150,514 was recorded to warrant derivative liability expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Then, the pertinent portion of the warrant liability of $508,497 was reclassified to equity by an increase in common stock of $352 and an increase in additional paid-in capital of $508,145.

On June 1, 2009, the Company issued 75,000 shares to a consultant for services to be rendered over a 12-month period.  Accordingly, the Company has recognized stock-based compensation of $228,902 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
On June 22, 2009, the Company issued 5,000 shares having a fair value of $12,000 in order to extend the maturity date for a portion of its notes payable – related party (see Note 7).  Additionally, the Company issued 5,528 shares to settle $13,266 of accrued interest related to the notes payable – related party (see Note 7).

On June 22, 2009, the Company closed a private placement whereby the Company sold to four investors (one of whom was a co-chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors) (i) 1,250,000 shares and (ii) three-year warrants to purchase 312,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.80 per share for gross proceeds of $2,500,000.  We paid a broker-dealer  $243,000 and issued three-year warrants to purchase 112,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.80 per share.  As part of the private placement, the Company agreed to file a registration statement within 60 days of closing and have the registration statement declared effective within 120 days of closing, subject to liquidated damages.  On August 21, 2009, the Company filed the registration statement, which then became effective on August 31, 2009.  As a result, no liquidated damages are due or shall become due regarding the registration rights.

On December 18, 2009, the Company completed a registered public offering whereby the Company sold 2,875,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $12,937,500, of which $1,417,830 was paid in direct placement costs, resulting in net proceeds of $11,519,670.

Certain of the Company’s warrants contain round-down protection (price protection), which caused the warrants to be treated as derivatives (see Note 11).  The fair value of the warrant derivative liability was $69,258 as of December 31, 2009 and has been recorded as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.  The change in fair value (taking into consideration the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle adopted on January 1, 2009) of the warrant derivative liability of $515,176 during the year ended December 31, 2009 has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations as warrant derivative liability expense.  Due to the aforementioned price protection, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,505 and 4,279 shares of common stock were issued during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  During the year ended December 31, 2009, price protection expired for certain warrants containing said provision requiring $357,435 of the warrant derivative liability to be reclassified to additional paid-in capital.  As of December 31, 2009, 15,494 warrants are outstanding that continue to have price protection, at an exercise price of $1.52 per share, for which the price protection shall expire in the second quarter of 2010.

Stock Incentive Plan and Stock Option Grants to Employees and Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) that provides for the grant of up to 2,250,000 shares of common stock and/or options to purchase shares of common stock to directors, employees and consultants.  As of December 31, 2009, there were no shares available for future issuance under the Plan.  

On November 13, 2007, the Company adopted the 2007 Incentive Stock and Award Plan (the “2007 Award Plan”), that provided for the grant of up to 500,000 shares of common stock and/or options to purchase shares of common stock to directors, employees and consultants and in order to provide a means whereby employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates and others performing services to the Company may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of common stock of the Company.  On February 6, 2009, the Company increased the number of shares of common stock eligible for grant under the 2007 Award Plan from 500,000 to 612,500 shares.  On June 5, 2009, the Company increased the number of shares eligible for grant under the 2007 Award Plan from 612,500 to 1,862,500 shares.  On July 27, 2009, the Company increased the number of shares eligible for grant under the 2007 Award Plan from 1,862,500 to 2,112,500 shares.  On September 24, 2009, the Company increased the number of shares eligible for grant under the 2007 Award Plan from 2,112,500 to 3,112,500 shares.

DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

The material terms of each option granted pursuant to the 2007 Award Plan by the Company shall contain the following terms: (i) that the purchase price of each share purchasable under an incentive option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 2007 Award Plan) of such common share on the date the option is granted, (ii) the term of each option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no option shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the date such option is granted and (iii) in the absence of any option vesting periods designated by the Committee at the time of grant, options shall vest and become exercisable as to one-third of the total number of shares subject to the option on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

On September 23, 2008, 731,250 stock options issued (during 2008) to 22 employees, having exercise prices from $5.90 to $6.02 per share, were repriced to an exercise price of $2.62 per share, resulting in an additional fair value of $380,250, which is being recognized over the remaining vesting periods.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company granted 951,250 stock options, of which 150,000 were granted to the former owner of Options Newsletter, exercisable at $2.00 per share, and the remaining options were each exercisable at the fair value of the common stock on the respective grant dates ranging from $2.62 to $6.02 per share.  The options vest pro rata over two to four years and expire five years from the grant date.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company granted 2,800,000 stock options, of which 2,650,000 were under the Award Plan, at various exercise prices ranging from $1.52 to $5.69 per share.  Of the options granted, 110,000 vested immediately and the remaining options vest pro rata over three to four years; all options expire five years from the grant date.

The total fair value of stock options granted to employees during the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $7,089,875 and $3,505,840, respectively, which is being recognized over the respective vesting periods.  The Company recorded compensation expense of $2,632,870 and $2,695,528 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, in connection with these stock options.

As of December 31, 2009, 350,208 shares were remaining under the 2007 Award Plan for future issuance.

The Company estimates the fair value of share-based compensation utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is dependent upon several variables such as the expected option term, expected volatility of our stock price over the expected term, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected option term, expected dividend yield rate over the expected option term, and an estimate of expected forfeiture rates.  The Company believes this valuation methodology is appropriate for estimating the fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors which are subject to ASC Topic 718 requirements.  These amounts are estimates and thus may not be reflective of actual future results, nor amounts ultimately realized by recipients of these grants.  The Company recognizes compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award.  The following table summarizes the assumptions the Company utilized to record compensation expense for stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

For stock options issued through September 30, 2009, the expected life is based on the contractual term.  Thereafter, the Company utilized the simplified method to estimate the expected life for stock options granted to employees.  The simplified method was used as the Company does not have sufficient historical data regarding stock option exercises.  The expected volatility is based on historical volatility.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yields with terms equivalent to the expected life of the related option at the time of the grant.  Dividend yield is based on historical trends.  While the Company believes these estimates are reasonable, the compensation expense recorded would increase if the expected life was increased, a higher expected volatility was used, or if the expected dividend yield increased.

Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

On January 1, 2009, we adopted a newly issued accounting standard for fair value measurements of all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.  The accounting standard for those assets and liabilities did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.  We did not have any significant nonfinancial assets or nonfinancial liabilities that would be recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2009.

The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements.  Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  The accounting standard established a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available.  This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows.  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.  A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 We classify assets and liabilities measured at fair value in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.  Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following at December 31, 2009:

The Company estimates the fair value of the warrant derivative liability utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is dependent upon several variables such as the contractual warrant term, expected volatility of our stock price over the contractual warrant term, expected risk-free interest rate over the contractual warrant term, and the expected dividend yield rate over the contractual warrant term.  The Company believes this valuation methodology is appropriate for estimating the fair value of the warrant derivative liability.  The following table summarizes the assumptions the Company utilized to estimate the fair value of the warrant derivative liability at December 31, 2009:

Assumptions

Expected life (years)
    3.4  
Expected volatility
    110.5 %
Risk-free interest rate
    1.70 %
Dividend yield
    0.00 %

The expected term is based on the contractual term.  The expected volatility is based on historical volatility.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yields with terms equivalent to the expected life of the related warrant at the time of the grant.  Dividend yield is based on historical trends.  While the Company believes these estimates are reasonable, the fair value would increase if a higher expected volatility was used, or if the expected dividend yield increased.

There were no changes in the valuation techniques during the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Employment Agreements

From time to time, the Company enters into employment agreements with certain of its employees.  These agreements typically include bonuses, some of which are performance-based in nature.  In December 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with an employee whereby the Company was obligated to pay a guaranteed bonus of $500,000 during the first year of the employment agreement.  As of December 31, 2008, the Company had paid the entire amount and no additional amounts are due.
