Total
Local advertising spend is forecast at $133.33 billion in 2010,
rising to $137.3 billion in 2012 and to $145.2 billion in
2014.
|
|
§
|
The
local advertising market is currently dominated by traditional media,
however, there is a steady increase in online spending from $19.6 billion
in 2010 to $35.2 billion projected in
2014.
|
|
§
|
By
comparison, classifieds and verticals ended 2009 at $3.9 billion, down $1
billion from 2008. Classified performance last year declined
substantially, down 30% in the second quarter, year over year, and down
21% for the full year. Classifieds as a format continues to
struggle.
|
|
§
|
Online
advertising reaches more users as search queries continue to increase as
local newspapers, printed directories and other local printed mediums
continue to reduce circulation (and, in turn, their impact and reach) due
to high cost and in turn their
reach.
|
|
§
|
Online
users are becoming trained to use the Internet as a whole and not only
their computer largely due to the broad accessibility via computers and
hand-held devices, such as mobile phones and personal digital
assistant.
|
|
§
|
Features
such as mapping, direct calling to the advertiser, and e-mail at the click
of a button have become more
prevalent.

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF
PRESENTATION
|
|
·
|
Telco Billing, Inc. was formed in
April 1998 to provide advertising and directory listings for businesses on
its Internet website in a “Yellow Pages” format. Telco provides
those services to its subscribers for a monthly fee. These
services are provided primarily to businesses throughout the United
States. Telco became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company after the June 1999
acquisition.
|
|
·
|
At
the time that the transaction was agreed to, the Company had 12,567,770
common shares issued and outstanding. As a result of the merger
transaction with Telco, there were 29,567,770 common shares outstanding,
and the former Telco stockholders held approximately 57% of the Company’s
voting stock. For financial accounting purposes, the
acquisition was a reverse acquisition of the Company by Telco, under the
purchase method of accounting, and was treated as a recapitalization with
Telco as the acquirer. Consistent with reverse acquisition
accounting, (i) all of Telco’s assets, liabilities, and accumulated
deficit were reflected at their combined historical cost (as the
accounting acquirer) and (ii) the preexisting outstanding shares of the
Company (the accounting acquiree) were reflected at their net asset value
as if issued on June 16, 1999.
|
|
·
|
On
June 6, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc.
(“LiveDeal”), a California corporation. LiveDeal operated an
online local classifieds marketplace, www.livedeal.com, which listed
millions of goods and services for sale across the United
States. The technology acquired in the acquisition offered such
classifieds functionality as fraud protection, identity protection,
e-commerce, listing enhancements, photos, community-building, package
pricing, premium stores, featured Yellow Page business listings and
advanced local search capabilities. This business has since
been discontinued – see Note 5.
|
|
·
|
On
July 10, 2007, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and
assumed certain liabilities of OnCall Subscriber Management Inc., a
Manila, Philippines-based company that provided telemarketing
services. The acquisition took place through the Company’s
wholly-owned subsidiary, 247 Marketing LLC, a Nevada limited liability
company, which remains in existence but is
inactive.
|
|
·
|
On
August 10, 2007, the Company filed amended and restated articles of
incorporation with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of
Nevada, pursuant to which the Company’s name was changed to LiveDeal,
Inc., effective August 15, 2007. The name change was approved
by the Company’s Board of Directors pursuant to discretion granted to it
by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting on August 2,
2007.
|
|
·
|
During
2009, the Company made strategic changes that impacted the Company’s
consolidated financial statements in the following
manner:
|
|
o
|
Impairment charges of $16,111,494
were recorded related to the write-down of the Company’s goodwill and
other intangible assets as discussed in Note
4;
|
|
o
|
The Company commenced a plan to
discontinue its classifieds business and initiated shutdown activities, as
discussed in Note 5, and has reflected the operating results of this line
of business as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations;
|
|
o
|
The Company sold a portion of its
customer list associated with its directory services business and recorded
a gain of $3,040,952, as discussed in Note 14;
and
|
|
o
|
The Company established a
valuation allowance of $10,586,854 related to its deferred tax assets, as
described in Note 10.
|
|
·
|
During 2010, the Company formed
the wholly-owned subsidiaries Local Marketing Experts, Inc. and Velocity
Marketing Concepts, Inc.
