Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Management Commentary and Outlook
Management anticipates generating revenue from Dolphin Secure and Dolphin Surf in the third quarter of 2010. Strategic partnerships have been formed with the United Way of Miami-Dade, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and the Girl Scout Council of Tropical Florida to promote the platform. The Company is exploring additional sales channels including electronic and brick-and-mortar retail.
Risks and Going Concern
Going Concern: The financial statements include a "Going Concern" warning. The Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $29.7 million and inadequate working capital. Continuation as a going concern is dependent on the ability to raise additional funds through loans or equity sales, with no assurance of success.
Legal Proceedings
- Peikin/Gold Litigation: The Company is involved in ongoing litigation with former counsel Mark Peikin and Joshua Gold regarding alleged misfeasance, diversion of assets, and improper stock issuance. The Company filed counterclaims alleging fraud and civil theft. A federal racketeering count was previously dismissed, but state-level proceedings continue.
- Lease Dispute: A third-party claim was filed against the Company in Ontario regarding a commercial lease breach and personal guaranty. The Company has denied liability.
Unusual Items
The Company recorded a non-cash expense of $966,649 related to the repricing and restructuring of warrants issued to T-Squared Investments LLC. Additionally, the Company advanced $57,000 to 24eight, LLC, a potential acquisition target.
