CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of CreditRiskMonitor.com, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosure required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all material adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, and have been prepared in a manner consistent with the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results of a full fiscal year.

The December 31, 2016 balance sheet has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(2) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) to account for stock-based compensation.

The following table summarizes the stock-based compensation expense for stock options that was recorded in the Company’s results of operations in accordance with ASC 718 for the three and six months ended June 30:

(3) Other Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board and the SEC had issued certain accounting pronouncements as of June 30, 2017 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management does not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected the Company’s financial accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during the interim periods for which financial statements are included in this quarterly report. Management also believes those pronouncements will not have a significant effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.
 
6

(4) Fair Value Measurements

The Company records its financial instruments at fair value in accordance with accounting guidance. The determination of fair value assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the source of inputs as follows: (a) Level 1 – valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; (b) Level 2 – valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; and (c) Level 3 – valuations based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable, thus, reflecting assumptions about the market participants.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value. The carrying value of accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximates fair market value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.

The Company’s cash equivalents are generally classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices.

The table below sets forth the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company did not hold financial assets and liabilities which were recorded at fair value in the Level 2 or 3 categories as of either June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

(5) Net Loss per Share

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 the Company recorded a net loss. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Because the Company has reported a net loss for all periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share, as the effect of utilizing the fully diluted share count would have reduced the net loss per share. Therefore, all outstanding stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive for each of the periods presented.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Environment

The continuing uncertainty in the worldwide financial system has negatively impacted general business conditions. It is possible that a weakened economy could adversely affect our clients’ need for credit information, or even their solvency, but we cannot predict whether or to what extent this will occur.

Our strategic priorities and plans for 2017 are to continue to build on the improvement initiatives underway to achieve sustainable, profitable growth. Global market conditions, however, may affect the level and timing of resources deployed in pursuit of these initiatives in 2017.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table presents selected financial information and statistics as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

The Company has invested some of its excess cash in mutual funds. All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered cash equivalents, while those with maturities in excess of three months when purchased are reflected as marketable securities.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $9.20 million in cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of approximately $24,000 from December 31, 2016. The reason for this decrease was that the cash generated by operating activities ($45,000) was less than cash used to acquire property and equipment ($69,000).

The main component of current liabilities at June 30, 2017 is deferred revenue of $8.32 million, which should not require significant future cash outlay other than the cost of preparation and delivery of the applicable commercial credit reports which cost much less than the deferred revenue shown. Deferred revenue is recognized as income over the subscription term, which approximates twelve months.

The Company has no bank lines of credit or other currently available credit sources.

The Company believes that its existing balances of cash, cash equivalents and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its currently anticipated cash requirements through at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. Moreover, the Company has been cash flow positive for 9 of the last 10 fiscal years and has no long-term debt. However, the Company’s liquidity could be negatively affected if it were to make an acquisition or license products or technologies, which may necessitate the need to raise additional capital through future debt or equity financing. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Operating revenues increased $165,844, or 5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2016. This overall revenue growth resulted from an increase in Internet subscription service revenue, attributable to increased sales to new and existing subscribers.

Data and product costs increased $157,352, or 13%, for the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due primarily to higher salary and related employee benefits, as the Company increased its headcount.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $70,067, or 3%, for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due primarily to higher salary and related employee benefits.

Depreciation and amortization increased $1,210, or 2%, for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due to a higher depreciable asset base reflecting the installation of a new telephone system in the third quarter of 2016.

Other income, net decreased $6,507 for second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period last year. This decrease was due to the mark-to-market adjustment recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 related to the Company’s investment in marketable securities which have since been liquidated.

Benefit from income taxes increased $6,259 for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due to the Company being in a greater pre-tax loss position in 2017 versus 2016 because of the reasons enumerated above.

Operating revenues increased $284,951, or 5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the first half of fiscal 2016. This overall revenue growth resulted from an increase in Internet subscription service revenue, attributable to increased sales to new and existing subscribers.

Data and product costs increased $297,720, or 12%, for the first six months of 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due primarily to higher salary and related employee benefits, as the Company increased its headcount, as well as higher data costs due to price increases of certain critical feeds.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $212,873, or 5%, for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due to higher salary and related employee benefits.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $590, or 1%, for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due to a higher depreciable asset base reflecting the installation of a new telephone system in the third quarter of 2016.

Other income, net decreased $19,611 for first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period last year. This decrease was due to the mark-to-market adjustment recorded in the first half of fiscal 2016 related to the Company’s investment in marketable securities which have since been liquidated.

Benefit from income taxes increased $28,843 for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of fiscal 2016. This increase was due to the Company being in a greater pre-tax loss position in 2017 versus 2016 because of the reasons enumerated above.

Future Operations

The Company over time intends to expand its operations by expanding the breadth and depth of its product and service offerings and introducing new and complementary products. Gross margins attributable to new business areas may be lower than those associated with the Company’s existing business activities.

As a result of the evolving nature of the markets in which it competes, the Company’s ability to accurately forecast its revenues, gross profits and operating expenses as a percentage of net sales is limited. The Company’s current and future expense levels are based largely on its investment plans and estimates of future revenues. To a large extent these costs do not vary with revenue. Sales and operating results generally depend on the Company’s ability to attract and retain customers and the volume of and timing of customer subscriptions for the Company’s services, which are difficult to forecast. The Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenues in relation to the Company’s planned expenditures would have an immediate adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, the Company may from time to time make certain pricing, service, marketing or acquisition decisions that could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Achieving greater profitability depends on the Company’s ability to generate and sustain increased revenue levels. The Company believes that its success will depend in large part on its ability to (i) increase its brand awareness, (ii) provide its customers with outstanding value, thus encouraging customer renewals, and (iii) achieve sufficient sales volume to realize economies of scale. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to increase the size of its sales force and service staff, and to invest in product development, operating infrastructure, marketing and promotion. The Company believes that these expenditures will help it to sustain the revenue growth it has experienced over the last several years. We anticipate that sales and marketing expenses will increase in dollar amount and as a percentage of revenues during the remainder of 2017 and future periods as the Company continues to expand its business on a worldwide basis. Further, the Company expects that product development expenses and data costs will also continue to increase in dollar amount and may increase as a percentage of revenues during the remainder of 2017 and future periods because it expects to employ more development personnel on average compared to prior periods, obtain additional data and build the infrastructure required to support the development of new and improved products and services. However, as these expenditures are largely discretionary in nature, the Company expects that the actual amounts incurred will be in line with its projections of future cash flows in order not to negatively impact its future liquidity and capital needs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve these objectives within a meaningful time frame.

The Company expects to experience fluctuations in its future quarterly operating results due to a variety of factors, some of which are outside the Company’s control. Factors that may adversely affect the Company’s quarterly operating results include, among others, (i) the Company’s ability to retain existing customers, attract new customers at a steady rate and maintain customer satisfaction, (ii) the Company’s ability to maintain gross margins in its existing business and in future product lines and markets, (iii) the development of new services and products by the Company and its competitors, (iv) price competition, (v) the Company’s ability to obtain products and services from its vendors, including information suppliers, on commercially reasonable terms, (vi) the Company’s ability to upgrade and develop its systems and infrastructure, and adapt to technological change, (vii) the Company’s ability to attract and retain personnel in a timely and effective manner, (viii) the Company’s ability to manage effectively its development of new business segments and markets, (ix) the Company’s ability to successfully manage the integration of operations and technology of acquisitions or other business combinations, (x) technical difficulties, system downtime or Internet brownouts, (xi) the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating the Company’s business, operations and infrastructure, (xii) governmental regulation and taxation policies, (xiii) disruptions in service by common carriers due to strikes or otherwise, (xiv) risks of fire or other casualty, (xv) litigation costs or other unanticipated expenses, (xvi) interest rate risks and inflationary pressures, and (xvii) general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the Internet and online commerce.

Due to the foregoing factors, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied on as an indication of future performance.
