CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 and 2012
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business Activity
Creative Management Group, Inc. was formed in Delaware on August 13, 2002 as a limited liability company named Creative Management Group, LLC. On August 7, 2007, this entity converted to a corporation and changed its legal name to Creative Management Group Inc. The Company is a sports, entertainment, marketing and management company providing event management implementation, sponsorships, licensing and broadcast, production and syndication.
On February 20, 2008, Creative Management Group, Inc. formed CMG Acquisitions, Inc., a Delaware company, for the purpose of acquiring companies and expansion strategies. On February 20, 2008, Creative Management Group, Inc. acquired 92.6% of Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. (a publicly traded company) and changed the name to CMG Holdings Group, Inc. (“the Company”). The purpose of the acquisition was to effect a reverse merger with Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. at a later date. On May 27, 2008, Pebble Beach entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with its controlling shareholder, Creative Management Group, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation. Upon closing the eighty shareholders of Creative Management Group delivered all of their equity interests in Creative Management Group to Pebble Beach in exchange for shares of common stock in Pebble Beach owned by Creative Management Group, as a result of which Creative Management Group became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pebble Beach. The shareholders of Creative Management Group received one share of Pebble Beach’s common stock previously owned by Creative Management Group for each issued and outstanding common share owned of Creative Management Group. As a result, the 22,135,148 shares of Pebble Beach that were issued and previously owned by Creative Management Group, are now owned directly by its shareholders. The 22,135,148 shares of Creative Management Group previously owned by its shareholders are now owned by Pebble Beach, thereby making Creative Management Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pebble Beach. Pebble Beach did not issue any new shares as part of the Reorganization. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization whereby Creative Management Group is the accounting acquirer. Pebble Beach was renamed CMG Holdings Group, Inc.
On April 1, 2009, the Company, through a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary CMGO Capital, Inc., a Nevada corporation, completed the acquisition of XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. On March 31, 2010, the Company and AudioEye, Inc. (“AudioEye”) completed the final Stock Purchase Agreement under which the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of AudioEye. On June 22, 2011 the Company entered into a Master Agreement subject to shareholder approval as may be required under applicable law and subject to closing conditions with AudioEye Acquisition Corp., a Nevada corporation where the shareholders of AudioEye Acquisition Corp. exchanged 100% of the stock in AudioEye Acquisition Corp for 80% of the capital stock of AudioEye. The Company retained 15% of AudioEye subject to transfer restrictions in accordance with the Master Agreement; on October 2012, the Company distributed to its shareholders, in the form of a dividend, 5% of the capital stock of AudioEye in accordance with provisions of the Master Agreement.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CMG Holdings Group, Inc., CMG Acquisition, Inc., CMGO Capital, Inc., XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. ("XA"), CMGO Logistics, Inc., USaveCT and USaveNJ, after elimination of all significant inter-company accounts and transactions.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Estimates are used when accounting for allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Risk
The Company maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions where they are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 each. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, neither of these accounts was in excess of the limit. The Company also maintains a money market investment account at one securities firm where the account is insured by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation up to $500,000 for the bankruptcy, etc., of the securities firm. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the account had no balance in excess of the limit. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, one customer exceeds 10% of the Company’s total revenue, representing 72% and 64% of the Company’s total revenues during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 and 2012
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company earns revenues by providing event management services under individually negotiated contracts with varying terms, recognizing revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the services have been provided and collectability is assured. In arrangements where key indicators suggest the Company acts as principal, the Company records the gross amount billed to the client as revenue and the related costs incurred as operating expenses as the services are provided.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are amounts due from event management services, are unsecured and are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Credit is generally extended on a short-term basis and do not bear interest, although a finance charge may be applied to amounts outstanding more than thirty days. Accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with clients. Provisions for losses on accounts receivable are determined on the basis of loss experience, known and inherent risk in the account balance and current economic conditions. There were no allowances for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) and share-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services. ASC 718-10 and 505-50 require the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including stock options based on the estimated fair values.
Derivative Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and all derivative instruments are reflected as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet.
The Company uses estimates of fair value to value its derivative instruments. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. In general, the Company’s policy in estimating fair values is to first look at observable market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets, where available. When these are not available, other inputs are used to model fair value such as prices of similar instruments, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, default rates and credit spreads (including for the Company’s liabilities), relying first on observable data from active markets. Additional adjustments may be made for factors including liquidity, credit, bid/offer spreads, etc., depending on current market conditions. Transaction costs are not included in the determination of fair value. When possible, The Company seeks to validate the model’s output to market transactions. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices, different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The values presented may not represent future fair values and may not be realizable. The Company categorizes its fair value estimates in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (ASC 820), based on the hierarchical framework associated with the three levels of price transparency utilized in measuring financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which is generally between three and five years. Depreciation expense was $0 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 and 2012
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the respective asset, which is three years. Amortization expense was $0 and $74,580 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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 income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 and ASC 825, Financial Instruments (ASC 825), requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
CMG HOLDINGS GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 and 2012
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
The following table sets forth by level with the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on December 31, 2013 and 2012:

Investments in Debt and Equity Securities
The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, regarding marketable securities. The Company invests in securities that are intended to be bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term, and as a result, classifies such investments as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair value being reflected as unrealized gains or losses in the current period. In addition, the Company classifies the cash flows from purchases, sales, and maturities of trading securities as cash flows from operating activities.
Details of the Company's marketable trading securities as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

NOTE 3 - EQUITY
Preferred Stock
Series B Preferred Stock and Inventory Purchase
On March 31, 2011 the Company acquired 20,000 cartoon animated cels (the “Cel Art”) from Continental Investments Group, Inc. (the “Agreement”). The Company issued 50,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to Continental Investments Group, Inc. as consideration for the Cel Art, such shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock having a stated value per share of $100. The Cel Art consists of collectible, hand-painted cartoon animation cels. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into common shares of the Company at the stated value of $100 per share divided by the volume weighted average trading price for the 30 days prior to conversion. The preferred shares are non-voting and do not receive dividends. The Company determined the fair value of the preferred stock to be $3,240,502 on the acquisition date based on the number of shares of common stock the preferred shares could be converted into and the market price of the common stock on the agreement date. The cartoon animated cels are valued at the lower of cost or market. As of December 31, 2011, Management wrote down the inventory to zero. The Company also analyzed the embedded conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815-15 and determined that the conversion option should be classified as equity. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company determined that due to uncertainties related to future sales of the Cel Art, the entire balance should be reserved as of December 31, 2011.

The Agreement calls for the termination and cancellation of a Sale and Purchase agreement, whereby the Company agreed to issue 50,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for 20,000 cartoon animated Cels.

NOTE 5 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

Because the number of shares to be issued upon settlement cannot be determined under these instruments, the Company cannot determine whether it will have sufficient authorized shares at a given date to settle any other of its share-settleable instruments. As a result, under ASC 815-15 “Derivatives and Hedging”, all other share-settleable instruments must be classified as liabilities.

NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject to certain claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On April 21, 2011, the Company was served with a lawsuit that was filed in Clark County, Nevada against the Company by A to Z Holdings, LLC and seven other individuals or entities. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company’s Board of Directors did not have the power to designate series A and B preferred stock without amending the articles of incorporation. The complaint also alleges any such amendment would require shareholder approval and filing of a proxy statement. On April 20, 2012, the Company settled with A to Z Holdings, LLC and seven other individuals or entities for $10,000.
On July 6, 2011, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed in the Circuit Court for the County of Multnomah, Oregon. The complaint alleges breach of contract and entitlement to consulting fees from the Company. The Company disagrees with the allegations contained in the Complaint and intends to vigorously defend the matter and otherwise enforce its rights with respect to the matter. The Company has retained counsel and is prepared to defend this lawsuit. The Company believes that the claims are frivolous pursuant to the terms of the contract. The case was settled on September 28, 2012 for $30,000. The Company has accrued for this liability as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
On March 28, 2014 we received a letter from a former Chief Executive Officer of our subsidiary, XA, claiming unpaid severance and paid- time-off. Total of the contingent claim amounted to $250,661. We are currently in the process to settle the claim.

NOTE 9 - SALE OF CREATIVE MANAGEMENT OF DELAWARE, INC.
On June 25, 2012, the Company, as a result of desiring to exit from the talent management business, sold its wholly owned subsidiary Creative Management of Delaware, Inc. (formerly Creative Management Group, Inc.) to Creative Management Global, Inc. pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Price of this Agreement calls for Creative Management Global, Inc. to pay to the Company as consideration for the shares of Creative Management of Delaware, Inc., a royalty payment and deferred payment. The royalty payment is effective as of the closing of this agreement and for a period of nineteen (19) months of 10% of cash or other payment received as gross revenues less direct costs earned. The remainder of the purchase price, following payment of the royalty payments, will consist of a final payment to the Company by Creative Management Global, Inc. in the amount of One Hundred Thirty Three Thousand ($133,000). The final payment will be paid after Creative Management Global, Inc. year-end 2013 financial statements are completed and audited by an independent accounting firm and will reflect the total company gross revenues less direct costs for the years 2012, and 2013. No assets have been sold in this transaction and, as a result, no gain was recorded on the sale of this subsidiary.
NOTE 10 – RESIGNATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD.
On September 26, 2012, Alan Morell officially resigned as Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company. In conjunction with the resignation, Mr. Morell was issued a convertible note for $525,000 representing the amount of accrued salary owed to him by the company up to the date of resignation and assumed all obligations related to a Smith Barney Credit Line that was secured by Mr. Morell’s security accounts and issued another convertible note to Morell for $112,000. The notes bore interest at 2% and were due on April 26, 2014. The notes were convertible beginning on November 15, 2012 at a conversion price of $0.06 per share. During June 2013, the Company issued 2,800,000 shares of common stock to settle the notes totaling $637,000, resulting in a gain on settlement of debt of $610,400.
NOTE 11 - GOING CONCERN
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has a working capital deficit and has generated recurring net losses. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders and the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue and expand operations.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Besides ongoing revenues from continuing operations, the Company may need to raise additional funds to expand operations to the point at which the Company can achieve profitability.
