PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUSSUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED SEPTEMBER 19, 2022

2,400,000 Shares of Common Stock

We are offering 2,400,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to this prospectus. Our common stock is currently quoted on the Pink Open Market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the “Pink Open Market”) under the symbol “LPTV.” The last reported sale price of our common stock on September 15, 2022, was $2.75 per share (which price reflects the price of a share prior to the anticipated reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock). We anticipate a public offering price of between $4.50 and $5.50 per share of common stock (which price reflects the price of a share after the anticipated reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock), and the number of shares offered hereby is based upon an assumed offering price of $5.00 per share (after the reverse stock split), the midpoint of such estimated price range. Such number of shares is subject to change if the offering price is more or less than $5.00 in such manner to maintain gross proceeds in the amount of $12 million. For instance, if the offering price is $4.50 per share, the number of shares to be sold in the offering will be 2,666,667.

Currently, there is a very limited market for our common stock. We have been authorized to list our common stock on the NYSE American under the symbol “LPTV”, subject to meeting all applicable listing standards upon completion of the offering. There is no assurance that, if our listing is successful, an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained.

In connection with this offering, we will effect a one-for-three reverse stock split prior to the pricing of this offering pursuant to which every three shares of our common stock will be reclassified as one share of common stock. Unless otherwise indicated, and other than in the consolidated historical financial statements and related notes included in this prospectus, the share and per share information in this prospectus is adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

We are a “smaller reporting company” under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus and future filings.

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 21 and elsewhere in this prospectus for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in shares of our common stock.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these shares or determined whether this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Certain of our existing stockholders, including a stockholder affiliated with one of our directors, have indicated an interest in purchasing up to an aggregate of at least $5.0 million of shares of our common stock in this offering at the public offering price. However, because indications of interest are not binding agreements or commitments to purchase, the underwriter could determine to sell more, less or no shares to any of these potential investors and any of these potential investors could determine to purchase more, less or no shares in this offering.

The offering is being underwritten on a firm commitment basis. We have granted the underwriter an option to buy up to an additional 360,000 shares of common stock from us at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments. The underwriter may exercise this option at any time and from time to time during the 30-day period from the date of this prospectus.

The underwriter expects to deliver the shares of common stock to the purchasers on or about           , 2022.

Company Overview

Overview

We are a multichannel digital video platform media company that uses marketing technology, or “MarTech,” to generate our revenue and offer our services. Our technology and vast library of videos and licensed content enable us to curate and distribute short-form videos to out-of-home (“OOH”) dining, hospitality, retail, convenience stores, and other locations and venues to enable them to inform, entertain and engage their customers. Our technology provides third-party advertisers with a targeted marketing and promotional tool for their products and services and, in certain instances, allows us to measure the number of potential viewers of such advertising and promotional materials. We also allow OOH customers to access our service without advertisements by paying a monthly subscription fee. In addition to providing services to OOH venue operators, we currently provide our services direct to consumers (“D2C”) in their homes on connected TVs (“CTVs”) and on their mobile devices. We moved to a primarily advertising-based model starting in early 2021.

We offer self-curated music video content licensed from major and independent record labels, as well as movie, television and video game trailers, trivia, kid-friendly videos, viral videos, drone footage, news headlines, and lifestyle and atmospheric channels.

We distribute our content and advertising inventory to digital screens located in OOH locations primarily through (i) our owned and operated platform (“O&O Network”) of Loop Media-designed “small-box” streaming Android media players (“Loop Players”) and legacy ScreenPlay (defined below) computers and (ii) through screens on digital networks owned and operated by third parties (“Partner Network”, and together with the O&O Network, the “Loop Network”). As of the date of this prospectus, we have expanded to over 43,000 OOH screens across the Loop Network. As of June 30, 2022, we had 12,584 quarterly active units (“QAUs”). See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation — Key Performance Indicators.” We launched our Partner Network business beginning in May 2022 with one partner on approximately 17,000 of the partner’s screens, and we have since added an additional 13,500 screens in a second partner’s network, for a total of 30,500 screens as of the date of this prospectus in our Partner Network. Our legacy businesses, including our content subscription-based business and our CTV business, complement these newer businesses.

Industry

Consumer Adoption of Streaming Services

In recent years, the video streaming services industry experienced, and is expected to continue to experience, significant growth as entertainment is delivered to consumers across an increasing array of digital platforms and services. According to data from Statista, Inc. (“Statista,” and such data, the “Statista Data”), revenue from the transmission and sale of video content over the internet (“VCOI”) is projected to reach $76.7 billion in 2021 and rise to $113.9 billion by 2025, a 10.4% compounded annualized growth rate (“CAGR”), with free (ad-supported) over-the-top (“OTT”) users expected to increase from 213.2 million users in 2020 to a projected 225.4 million users in 2025. According to Statista Data, based on information sourced from eMarketer, the number of ad-supported video-on-demand viewers in the United States is expected to grow from 140.1 million viewers in 2022 to 171.5 million viewers in 2026. The image that follows this paragraph illustrates this. According to the Statista Data, the largest revenue segment for VCOI is revenue derived from OTT video advertising (all advertising-financed moving image content, from premium to user-generated), with revenue of $34.3 billion in 2020, and projected revenue of $40.6 billion in 2021, $46.5 billion in 2022 and $63.3 billion in 2025, representing a CAGR of 13.0% over that period. According to Activate (based on information from Statista), the number of connected

TV households (households for which at least one person of any age used the internet through a CTV at least once per month) in the United States is expected to increase from 85 million in 2017 to 113 million in 2024.

Digital-Out-of-Home Advertising

In 2020, we primarily began using a free, ad-supported revenue model for our OOH business and believe our ad-supported services will be the primary driver of our revenue growth as demand for digital-out-of-home advertising is expected to grow. According to Statista Data, overall advertising spend in the United States was $268.9 billion in 2011 and is expected to grow to $294.1 billion in 2021 and $364.4 billion in 2025. 80% of digital advertising (in 2020) was delivered to media outlets through programmatic advertising. Programmatic advertising is a system that automates the processes and transactions involved with purchasing and dynamically placing ads on websites, apps or other digital delivery systems. Programmatic advertising makes it possible to purchase and place ads, including targeted advertising content, in seconds. According to the Statista Data, ad spending in the OOH space in the United States was $6.5 billion in 2020 and is expected to increase to $7.2 billion in 2021 and $9.0 billion in 2025. Digital out-of-home advertising spending in the United States is expected to grow from $2.7 billion in 2019 to $3.8 billion in 2023, according to Statista Data, based upon information sourced from eMarketer. The image below illustrates this:

Table of Contents

Our Revenue Model

Our revenue currently consists primarily of advertising revenue from advertising demand partners (including “demand-side platforms” and “supply-side platforms”), to whom we sell advertising inventory across the Loop Network. In our O&O Network business, we operate an advertising revenue share model in which third party licensors of our curated content are provided with a share of the advertising revenue. In our Partner Network business, we operate an advertising revenue share model in which the third-party owners and operators of the Partner Network are provided with a share of the advertising revenue. Where possible, in our Partner Network, we seek to use content that is not subject to a third-party license to avoid the necessity to share advertising revenue with third-party content providers.

Our ad-supported and subscription-based services are separate offerings but work together to support our business. Given the expected growth in the digital OOH advertising market, coupled with the preferable economics to the Company of an ad-supported business model, we encourage our customers to choose our ad-supported services over our subscription services. While our ad-supported service is generally associated with higher margins, we provide our subscription service for OOH customers that are seeking an ad-free content offering on our O&O Network. We do not have a subscription service for our Partner Network, as the primary services we provide in this business are advertising sales services, along with our content licensing services.

MarTech

MarTech, the intersection of marketing and technology, leverages data and analytics to expand our points of distribution and advertising revenue.

Distribution

Owned & Operated Network (O&O). We moved to an advertising-based model and ramped up distribution of Loop Players for our O&O Network starting in early 2021. Our customer acquisition strategy for our O&O Network is focused on marketing and distributing our Loop Player to businesses through social media and other online mediums, using our internal enterprise sales team and our affiliate marketing programs. We seek to optimize our social media and online customer acquisition and the distribution of our Loop Players by analyzing various data, including our return on marketing investments. When analyzing the success of our marketing investments, we examine the number of sales leads obtained from online platforms and the conversion of leads into high quality customers. We regularly analyze the engagement with, and success of, our creative advertising content and modify our messaging to improve customer acquisition for our O&O Network. Our enterprise sales team targets multi-location retail businesses or franchised chains in key markets and industries in the United States that are attractive to OOH advertisers. Our affiliate marketing program incentivizes third parties that have pre-existing connections with retail venues or otherwise qualify for our program to market and distribute our Loop Players and help ensure that they remain active and are servicing advertisements. As of June 30, 2022, we had 12,584 QAUs. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Key Performance Indicators.”

Table of Contents

Partner Network. Through our Partner Network business, we offer curated content and programmatic advertising sales expertise and technology to third parties looking to optimize advertising revenue on their existing distribution platforms. We work directly with programmatic advertising demand companies to sell advertising inventory on the Partner Network. We collect revenues from the demand partners and pass along a percentage of such revenues to our partner in the Partner Network. We launched our Partner Network business beginning in early May 2022 with one partner on approximately 5,000 of the partner’s screens, and we rolled out to the remaining 12,000 screens in that network as of mid-May 2022. In mid-August 2022,we entered into an agreement with a second partner, which partner has the United States’ largest in-airport TV network, adding 13,500 screens to our Partner Network, for a total of 30,500 screens as of the date of this prospectus. We currently have two partners in our Partner Network and are looking to continue to expand our partner base for this line of business over time. Our cost of revenue for advertising sales on our Partner Network is higher than our cost of revenue for advertising sales on our O&O Network due to our significant revenue share with our Partner Network customers, even though we are able to share typical transaction costs associated with the related programmatic advertising sales and server costs with such customers. Our ability to monetize our Partner Network screens will differ from partner network to partner network, as certain screens will be more desirable than others for advertisers, depending on the type of venues or locations in which the screens are located, the concentration of screens, the expected or actual number of consumers, dwell time of those consumers and other factors. As a result, the average revenue per screen for individual partners and individual screens in our Partner Network is expected to be more varied than our ARPU for our O&O Network business.

Advertising Revenue

Our revenue is primarily driven by programmatic advertising, an automated measurement process that manages the sales of our advertising inventory. Today, most digital advertising is programmatic advertising, with digital OOH advertising comprising a small portion of the overall market.  While we look to establish direct advertising and sponsorship opportunities with advertisers, almost all of our current advertising revenue is purposely secured through programmatic advertising. Our yield optimization strategies look to leverage data analytic and other techniques to maximize the value of our digital advertising inventory. We intend to optimize the combination of our ad impressions, cost per impression and the percentage of our ad inventory filled by advertisers, while balancing our O&O Network’s and our Partner Network’s customers’ experience by limiting the number of ads delivered during any given period. Our Loop Player is designed to allow us to multiply OOH revenue in certain locations in the event that the advertising industry recognizes, and is willing to pay for, multiple advertising impressions for a single Loop Player for venues with multiple persons who may be in a position to view the relevant advertisement as outlined below:

for, multiple advertising impressions for a single Loop Player for venues with multiple persons who may be in a position to view the relevant advertisement. This “multiplier effect” is possible due to the Loop Player’s ability to detect, using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology, the number of consumer mobile devices within reach of a Loop Player in an OOH location which provides advertisers with a proxy for the number of potential viewers of a particular ad at any given time. The digital advertising market for out of home locations is still developing and the multiplier effect is not yet available in all locations and with all advertising demand partners or advertisers and there is no assurance that it will become more widely available in the short term or at all.

Our Platform

The following table sets forth our O&O Network platform customer targets, delivery method, preferred revenue model and the associated content for our services:

​

​

Our Partner Network platform targets third parties with existing distribution platforms that have a significant number of screens in desirable OOH locations and venues. None of our Partner Network partners have requested the installation of Loop Players to deliver our streaming content and advertisements, but some may do so in the future. Our revenue model for the Partner Network is all ad-supported and the content delivered may be content sourced by our Partner Network partners or by Loop.

OOH Locations

The foundation of our business model is built around the OOH experience, with a focus on distributing licensed music videos and other content to public-facing businesses and venues. Our OOH offering has supported hospitality and retail businesses for over 20 years, originally through ScreenPlay, which we acquired in 2019. Since our acquisition of ScreenPlay, we have primarily focused on acquiring OOH customers throughout the United States.

Most OOH locations in the United States deliver visual content to their customers by using cable TV boxes and computer-based audio video equipment, which requires significant investment and cost to the venue operator. Capital investment in equipment has historically been a barrier for many businesses to provide visual entertainment to their customers. Unlike consumers in their homes, who have been more willing in recent years to invest in CTVs and streaming services, businesses generally have been slower in adopting lower-cost streaming options.

To gain greater access to, and expand our business with, OOH venue operators, we developed our proprietary Loop Player. The Loop Player is easy to set up and allows content to be streamed on multiple television sets. We believe our Loop Player and free, ad-supported service has significantly reduced the cost of specialty equipment and visual entertainment for venue operators.

We began rolling out the Loop Player in the fourth calendar quarter of 2020. We believe the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused many businesses to shut down or reduce capacity, has accelerated business owners’ demand for CTVs and streaming services to reduce their costs. For this reason, we believe the introduction of our Loop Player, coupled with our switch to a free ad-supported business model, has contributed to the growth in calendar 2021 and into 2022 of our OOH business customers. In 2021, our customer base expanded beyond our typical hospitality-based customers to smaller venues, franchisees and venues that service non-hospitality industries, like pet stores, doctors’ offices and other non-traditional venues. This trend has continued into 2022.

Table of Contents

We expect revenue from our digital out-of-home (“DOOH”) ad-supported service to increase to a greater extent than our revenue from our other services. This is partly due to our ongoing efforts to add new OOH locations to our distribution network, which increases the number of Loop Players in the market and, in turn, the number of ad impressions available for advertisers to fill with paid advertisements and sponsorships. Our new Partner Network business has expanded and is expected to further expand our OOH ad-supported business. In addition, our OOH ad-supported service using the Loop Player allows us, in certain circumstances, to present a greater number of ad impressions per OOH location to an advertiser than would typically be associated with a single OOH location. This “multiplier effect” is possible due to the Loop Player’s ability to detect, using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology, the number of consumer mobile devices within reach of a Loop Player in an OOH location which provides advertisers with a proxy for the number of potential viewers of a particular ad at any given time. This contrasts with other OOH technology that is not capable of providing data on the number of persons in an OOH location and in which advertisers pay for one ad impression per ad in an OOH location, regardless of the number of potential viewers in that location. The digital advertising market for out of home locations is still developing and the multiplier effect is not yet available in all locations and with all advertising demand partners or advertisers and there is no assurance that it will become more widely available in the short term or at all. This also contrasts with our D2C services, where advertisements are considered to be viewed by one person on their individual mobile device or on a CTV in their home.

D2C

Consumer Connected TVs

Our OTT business provides our OTT platform customers, such as Roku and Peacock, with music videos and other video content, providing their subscribers and customers with access to certain videos in our library. Our service to OTT platform providers has been ad-supported as many of the providers run a free ad-supported television, or FAST, business model for channels on their services. Not all of our music video content is available to our OTT customers. We also have a consumer CTV app that can be downloaded on CTVs and on which consumers can view certain of our content. Almost all of the viewers of our content on CTVs view our content on our channels delivered through OTT platforms rather than on our CTV consumer app.

Consumer Mobile Devices

We developed the Loop App for the distribution of our music videos and kid-friendly content. The Loop App allows our users to interact directly with our channels and playlists on their smart phones, tablets, and other digital devices, providing advertisers with additional mediums to reach consumers. Subscription service users are provided enhanced features to search for titles of music videos and artists, request music videos and create personalized playlists. Additionally, through our subscription service, we provide social features that allow users to follow each other, share their locations and playlists, view activity, signal support for a particular music video, and listen to other users’ “Loops.” We initially launched the Loop App in mid- 2020; however, we have not promoted or advertised our Loop App in any meaningful way. As we continue to grow our OOH business and distribute additional Loop Players, we believe the Loop App may in the future enhance our interactivity with businesses and their customers, and in turn, influence the content we develop and acquire.

Our Competitive Strengths

Diversified Content Library, including Music Videos

We believe our music video library is one of the largest in the world and gives us an advantage over many of our competitors. Our music video library contains videos dating back to the 1950s, appealing to generations of music-lovers, with the newest videos directly obtained from Universal Music Group (“Universal”), Sony Music Entertainment (“Sony”), and Warner Music Group (“Warner” and collectively with Universal and Sony, the “Music Labels”). Older music video libraries are more difficult to obtain, as there is generally no central database from which to acquire such videos. Additionally, the individual music labels who have rights over portions of such videos do not easily and readily provide them to those seeking to acquire them. We have strategically secured access to monetize our music video content through our license agreements with the individual Music Labels. We have licenses with all three major Music Labels to provide music video content in the OOH market and licenses with two of the three for the D2C market. We have also developed a large non-music video library of content, primarily through revenue share license agreements, which generally do not require any upfront payments. Our non-music video library consists of movie, television and video game trailers, trivia, kid-friendly videos, viral videos, drone footage, news headlines, and lifestyle and atmospheric channels.

Table of Contents

Efficient Content Curation

We believe we are able to produce engaging video content by curating our own and third party-content at relatively low production costs. We do not currently produce a meaningful amount of original video content, which can be expensive and time consuming. In contrast to many streaming platforms, we curate existing content from our video library and content licensed from third parties. The curation of our video content from our owned and leased libraries eliminates the costly and lengthy production process associated with creating original video content. Therefore, we are able to consistently innovate, update, and enhance our content offerings in a cost-effective and timely manner.

National Distribution and Reach

We distribute our services across thousands of OOH locations, audio and video streaming platforms, and mobile and connected TV applications. The entire Loop Network has expanded to over 43,000 out-of-home screens across the United States. We had 12,584 quarterly active units (“QAU”) across North America for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and our channels are available to millions of consumers on OTT platforms and are currently accessible in over 400,000 hotel rooms, serving both the OOH and D2C markets, respectively. We have recently hired salespeople to engage in direct marketing for our OOH business across various regions, including the East Coast, West Coast and South. We launched our Partner Network business beginning in May 2022 with one partner on approximately 17,000 of the partner’s screens, and we have since added an additional 13,500 screens in a second partner’s network, for a total of 30,500 screens as of the date of this prospectus in our Partner Network. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Key Performance Indicators” for a description of QAUs.

Technology Based Business Model

All of our key software and the design of our Loop Player and consumer apps has been developed in-house by us. We have built our services and platform with a view to the future, focusing on where we believe the digital OOH and consumer streaming and mobile devices markets are and will be for the foreseeable future. The Loop Player is ideal for OOH location operators looking to “cut the cord” from their old business models. This allows our OOH customers to save costs and provides them with a greater ability to customize and schedule content to fit their venues. We use digital marketing technology or “MarTech” to generate revenue, market our services and fuel our business. Our experience and technological capabilities in digital marketing has allowed us to expand our business into our Partner Network business, where we offer programmatic advertising sales expertise and technology to third parties looking to optimize advertising revenue on their existing distribution platforms and screens. Additionally, we believe we can attract key employees from across geographies as we operate almost entirely remotely in support of our culture of technology and efficiency. Our use of technology in most aspects of our business, including marketing, distribution, content curation, sales, customer service and other areas, allows us to leverage our existing employees as we continue to scale up our business.

Established Foundation Supported by Industry Tailwinds

Our technology stack, ad-supported revenue model and vast content library are the backbone of our business. We believe this established foundation places us in a better position than many peers to benefit from the industry tailwinds in the digital OOH advertising market. Because our foundation has been built with a view to where we believe the OOH content delivery and digital marketing trends are headed, we believe we are better positioned than many of our competitors who might have to re-work their existing technology and revenue models to better align with these trends. We believe our programmatic advertising in the OOH market will support our revenue infrastructure into the future. See “Business — Industry.”

Passionate and Experienced Management Team

Our seasoned management team is founder-led and has more than 100 years of combined media and technology experience. Our executive team has previous experience at some of the most well recognized entertainment companies in the world, including Walt Disney, Universal Music, MTV, VH1, CBS, Sony, Viacom, Time Warner, Electronic Arts, among others.

Our Growth Strategies

Our growth strategies are focused on monetizing and growing our content library and are guided by the following six pillars:

Increase Marketing of Loop Player for our O&O Network. We have found online digital advertising to be a successful customer acquisition strategy and believe there is a direct correlation between digital marketing spend and business demand for the Loop Player in our O&O Network. In addition to digital advertising viewed by individual businesses, we also intend to leverage our internal sales team to increase our direct marketing efforts to promote our Loop Player and services to large, national or regional, franchisee or corporate owned businesses. We have established an affiliate program whereby we incentivize third parties that have connections with OOH venues or otherwise qualify for our program to market and distribute our Loop Players and help ensure that they remain active and are servicing advertisements.

Expand our Partner Network. We believe we are at the forefront of digital programmatic advertising distribution and monetization in the DOOH industry. This has resulted in the expansion of our business to include our Partner Network business, which allows us to offer our advertising sales services and curated content to third parties looking to distribute our content and advertising to screens on digital networks owned and operated by such third parties. We launched our Partner Network business beginning in May 2022 with one partner on approximately 17,000 of the partner’s screens, and we have since added an additional 13,500 screens in a second partner’s network, for a total of 30,500 screens as of the date of this prospectus in our Partner Network. We are looking to expand our customer base for this line of business over time.

Diversify Customer Base. We believe the introduction of our Loop Player and shift towards an ad-supported service model has contributed to the growth of our OOH customers and related revenues. Our customer base has expanded beyond our typical hospitality, food and beverage and gym customers, as we have experienced an increase in business engagement from smaller venues, franchisees, and businesses that service other industries. This expansion has given us greater insight into the viewing habits of a diverse customer base and the demand for some of our non-music video content thereby enabling us to develop and curate content that continues to respond to consumer demand.

Expand our Non-Music Video Content. Our music video library is the foundation of our business but, in certain instances, OOH locations are looking for a broader or more targeted content offering than pure music videos. Since the acquisition of ScreenPlay’s music video library in 2019, we have sought to expand our non-music video content through licensing, acquisitions and our own development, which includes content in entertainment, lifestyle, and information channels. We recently introduced a Trivia channel on our service, which we developed internally, and which is not subject to a revenue share agreement with any third parties for the use of the content. We will look to develop additional channels with no or limited licensing fees to help grow our business and, where possible, enhance our operating margins.

Optimize Advertising Sales and Sponsorships. We aim to optimize our advertising sales by using technology and short-term, third-party consultants to collect data and employ analytics. Similarly, we will seek to continue to optimize our programmatic revenue through MarTech data and analytics. In addition to these efforts, we have expanded our advertising sales team to focus on advertising sales directly to companies that seek to advertise on our platform and to companies that are interested in providing sponsorship of our content. Through such arrangements, we may receive payments from a company in return for allowing such company to be associated with one of our channels, playlists, other content or company events.

International Expansion. We are exploring international expansion, as we believe the provision of video content in the non-U.S. OOH markets is underserved. In 2021 we began pursuing these growth initiatives by acquiring EON Media, which produces a weekly syndicated radio program targeted across Asia. Over time, we plan to be opportunistic in exploring ways to potentially expand in Asia, certain countries in South America, Canada and Europe.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated in Nevada on May 11, 2015. On February 6, 2020, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 3, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Loop Media Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Loop Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation incorporated on May 18, 2016 (“Predecessor Loop”), Merger Sub merged with and into Predecessor Loop, with Predecessor Loop surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Prior to the Merger, our business was comprised of two main business segments: (i) travel agency assistance services and (ii) convention services. Upon completion of the Merger, we sold this business and its related assets to one of our stockholders and we became an early-stage media company by acquiring Predecessor Loop’s video streaming business and management team. Predecessor Loop’s business is based on the business of ScreenPlay, Inc., a Washington corporation (“ScreenPlay”), which Predecessor Loop acquired in 2019. ScreenPlay operated a business-focused, computer — based, video service providing music video and other content to business venues. See “Business – Corporate History & Business Development.”

On November 12, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a change in our fiscal year from the twelve months beginning January 1 and ending December 31 to the twelve months beginning October 1 and ending September 30. This change in our fiscal year end resulted in a nine-month transition period from January 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021. On January 21, 2022, we filed a transition report on Form 10-KT for the period from January 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021, with the SEC, which form includes the audited financial statements as of and for the nine-month transition period ended September 30, 2021. All subsequent fiscal years for the Company will be from October 1 to September 30.

​

Key Performance Indicators

We review our quarterly active units (“QAUs”) and average revenue per unit player (“ARPU”), among other key performance indicators, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions.

19

Table of Contents

Quarterly Active Units

We define an “active unit” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or DOOH location using our ad-supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using a DOOH venue-owned computer screening our content) that is online, playing content, and has checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in the 90-day period or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our subscription service at any time during the 90-day period. We use “QAU” to refer to the number of such active units during such period. Beginning October 1, 2021, we began to pre-activate almost all of our Loop Players prior to delivery to customers, in response to feedback from customers and in order to further streamline the installation process and simplify the use of the Loop Players in DOOH locations. Pre-activated Loop Players are ordered by third-party DOOH locations and represent potential revenue for us when the Loop Players are installed in the DOOH locations. As a result of these operational changes, for any period following September 30, 2021, we will include in our definition of “active unit” any Loop Player that has been pre-activated and shipped by us to a DOOH location customer for a period of 90 days post shipment, regardless of whether such customer utilizes the Loop Player in their DOOH location. After the 90-day period, these Loop Players will drop out of the QAU definition, unless they are otherwise online, playing content, and checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in any subsequent 90-day period. Prior to October 1, 2021, if a Loop Player was not activated by the DOOH location operator it would not be counted as an active unit. Accordingly, our QAUs for periods subsequent to September 30, 2021 will not be strictly comparable to our September 30, 2021, or prior period, QAUs. Increases or decreases in our QAU may not correspond with increases or decreases in our revenue, and QAU may be calculated in a manner different than any similar key performance indicator used by other companies.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, QAU was 12,584, compared to 10,530 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a 20% increase. The growth in QAUs is almost entirely the result of a growth in our ad-supported Loop Players. QAU was 8,156 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 and 5,791 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Average Revenue Per Unit

​

We define a “unit player” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or a DOOH location using our ad-supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using a DOOH location-owned computer screening our content) or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our subscription service at any time during the 90-day period. A unit player that is supported by our advertising-based revenue model is an ad-supported unit player and a unit player that is supported by a subscription-based revenue model is a subscription unit player. We calculate advertising ARPU (“AD ARPU”) by dividing quarterly revenues from our DOOH ad-supported service for the period by QAUs for our ad-supported unit players. We calculate subscription ARPU (“SUB ARPU”) by dividing quarterly revenues from our DOOH subscription supported service for the period by QAUs for our subscription supported unit players.

Our AD ARPU fluctuates based on a number of factors, including the length of time in a quarter that a unit player is activated and operating, the cost per thousand advertisements (“CPMs”) we are able to achieve for our advertising impressions, and the ratio of advertising impressions that are filled with advertisements to the number of overall advertising impressions (“fill rate”) that we are able to achieve. Our SUB ARPU fluctuates based on a number of factors, including the timing of the start of a customer subscription for a subscription supported unit player, the number of ad-supported unit players we have, and the price customers pay for those subscriptions. An increase in the number of unit players over the course of a quarterly period may have the effect of decreasing quarterly ARPU, particularly if such players are added towards the end of the quarterly period. Increases or decreases in ARPU may not correspond with increases or decreases in our revenue, and ARPU may be calculated in a manner different than any similar key performance indicator used by other companies.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, AD ARPU was $526, compared to $435 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a 21% increase, primarily resulting from our efforts to optimize our CPMs and increase fill rates. AD ARPU was $236 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, SUB ARPU was $235, compared to $429 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a (45.2)% decrease. SUB ARPU was $410 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision with regard to our common stock. The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, you may lose all or part of your investment. In addition to the other information provided in this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business before purchasing our common stock. Although it is not possible to identify or predict all of the risks and uncertainties we face, we believe the discussion below includes all of the risks that are material to our business.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition

We have a limited operating history on which you can evaluate our business and prospects.

We have a limited operating history on which you can evaluate our business and our prospects. Although our company has existed since 2015, we have only operated as a public early-stage media company since our Merger in February 2020. The likelihood of success of our business plan must be considered in light of the risks, substantial expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with developing and expanding early-stage businesses and the competitive environment in which we operate.

Potential investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties that a company with a limited operating history will face. In particular, potential investors should consider that we cannot assure you that we will be able to, among other things:

If we cannot successfully execute any one of the foregoing, our business may not succeed and your investment will be adversely affected.

We have generated minimal revenues under our current business model, which makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects and make decisions based on those estimates of our future performance.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, the majority of our revenues were derived from the historical business of ScreenPlay, which we acquired in 2019, which relies on a paid subscription service-based model in OOH locations. However, our current business plan focuses on the ad-supported service provided through our proprietary Loop Player, which we began rolling out in the fourth calendar quarter of 2020. In addition, our Partner Network business was more recently introduced, beginning in early May 2022. As a consequence, our past results may not be indicative of our expected future business results. Because of the related uncertainties, we may be hindered in our ability to anticipate and timely adapt to increases or decreases in sales, revenues, or expenses. If we make poor budgetary decisions as a result of unreliable data, if our business model does not continue to be accepted by the market or if we are not able to build out our new Partner Network business, we may never become profitable and may continue to incur losses, which may result in a decline in our stock price.

21

Table of Contents

We have incurred significant operating losses in the past, and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to be profitable, or to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. In addition, our revenue growth rate may decline.

We have incurred significant operating losses in the past and, as of June 30, 2022, had an accumulated deficit of $81.8 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and for the years ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, our operating losses were $12.7 million, $30.6 million and $11.9 million, respectively. We have incurred significant costs to license content and continue to pay royalties or minimum guarantees to record labels, publishers, and other copyright owners for such content. We cannot guarantee that we will generate sufficient revenue from our efforts to monetize our services, including our paid subscription service and our free or unpaid ad-supported service, to offset the cost of our content, these royalty expenses and our other operating costs. If we cannot successfully earn revenue at a rate that exceeds the operational costs, including royalty expenses and guarantee payments to the largest three music labels, associated with our service, we will not be able to achieve or sustain profitability or generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis.

Additionally, we also expect our costs to increase in future periods, which could negatively affect our future operating results and ability to achieve profitability. We expect to continue to expend substantial financial and other resources on:

These investments may not result in increased revenue or growth in our business. If we fail to continue to grow our revenue and overall business, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be harmed.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and if we are unable to generate significant revenue or secure additional financing, we may be unable to implement our business plan and grow our business.

We are a small and emerging media company that is in the early stages of rolling out a new business plan as our re-focused products and services have only recently been fully operational and ready for delivery to our customers. In particular, our historical sales have relied on our subscription service provided by the business we acquired from Screenplay, but our current business plan focuses on the ad-supported service provided through our proprietary Loop Player, which we began rolling out in the fourth calendar quarter of 2020, and our recently introduced Partner Network business. We have not generated sufficient revenues to operate our business. We have a significant accumulated deficit and have incurred operating losses for years and expect losses to continue during the remainder of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2022, and beyond. Our independent registered public accounting firm has indicated in their report that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the issuance date of our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021. The continuation of our business as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from our current and potential stockholders. The Company’s primary source of operating funds since inception has been cash proceeds from debt and equity financing transactions. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient revenue and its ability to raise

22

Table of Contents

additional funds by way of its debt and equity financing efforts. There can be no assurance that adequate financing will be available in a timely manner, on acceptable terms, or at all.

We believe that the net proceeds of this offering, together with our existing cash, will enable us to fund our operations for at least 12 months from the date of this prospectus. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we expect.

There is uncertainty regarding our ability to grow our business or to continue as a going concern without additional financing. We have no agreements, commitments, or understandings to secure additional financing at this time. Our long-term future growth and success are dependent upon our ability to continue selling our services, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. We may be unable to continue selling our products and services, generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of common stock or borrow additional funds. Our inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business to a greater extent than we can with our existing financial resources.

We will require additional capital to support our business and objectives, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business and will require additional funds, in addition to the net proceeds from this offering, to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features or enhance our existing services, expand into additional markets around the world, improve our infrastructure, or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we have in the past engaged, and may in the future engage, in equity and debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our stockholders, including investors in this offering, could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future could also contain restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business, acquire or retain users, and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business may be harmed.

We have entered into debt arrangements, including non-revolving and revolving lines of credit secured by all of our assets; indebtedness thereunder could adversely affect our financial position and our ability to raise additional capital and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.

As of August 31, 2022, we owed an aggregate of $15,053,730 in principal and accrued interest on debt arrangements. This debt includes an aggregate of $5,272,822 in principal and accrued interest under the 2022 Notes and 2023 Notes, which will convert into shares of common stock simultaneously with the closing of this offering, $6.2 million under our Non-Revolving Line of Credit Loan Agreements (the “Loan Agreements”) with certain lenders (which will remain outstanding following this offering) and $2.0 million under our Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”) with a third party lender for a revolving loan credit facility (which will remain outstanding following this offering). The Revolving Loan Agreement provides for an initial eligible extension of credit in the principal sum of up to $4.0 million, and through the exercise of an accordion feature, a total sum of up to $10 million. The Loan Agreements mature on October 25, 2023 and November 13, 2023 and provide for interest, payable semi-annually in arrears, at a fixed rate equal to 12% per year. The loan under the Revolving Loan Agreement matures July 29, 2024 and accrues interest on the unpaid principal balance of advances, payable monthly in arrears, beginning on September 7, 2022, at an annual rate equal to the greater of (I) the sum of (i) the “Prime Rate” as reported in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal, adjusted as and when such Prime Rate changes, plus (ii) zero percent (0.00%), and (II) four percent (4.00%). Under the Revolving Loan Agreement, we have granted to the lender (the “Senior Lender”) a first-priority security interest in all of our present and future property and assets, including products and proceeds thereof. In connection with the Revolving Loan Agreement, our existing secured lenders under the Loan Agreements delivered subordination agreements to the Senior Lender. We are permitted to make regularly scheduled payments, including payments upon maturity, to such subordinated lenders and potentially other payments subject to a measure of cash flow and receiving certain financing activity proceeds, in accordance with the terms of such subordination agreements. We also may incur additional indebtedness in the future.

23

Table of Contents

Our indebtedness may:

In addition, the Revolving Loan Agreement has restrictive covenants, including covenants preventing us from effecting a change of control, disposing of our assets outside of the ordinary course of business, incurring additional debt (subject to certain exceptions), changing our business as currently conducted, paying dividends or settling claims involving the collateral under the Revolving Loan Agreement. These covenants have the potential to prevent us from pursuing beneficial opportunities, or raising additional funds through debt financing. Further, the amount of our indebtedness under our debt arrangements compared to the size of our company, or other factors, may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or take other actions. In addition, we may be unable to repay the indebtedness incurred under our debt arrangements at maturity and, in such situation, may not be able to refinance such debt on favorable terms or at all. Any inability to repay or refinance the indebtedness under our loan agreements at maturity may cause us to be in default, which would allow the holders of such indebtedness to exercise remedies as a secured lender and, in such event, would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Risks Related to Our Business

If our efforts to attract prospective customers and advertisers and to retain existing customers and users of our services are not successful, our growth prospects and revenue will be adversely affected.

Our ability to grow our business, including DOOH, and generate revenue depends on retaining, expanding, and effectively monetizing our customer base, including by increasing the number of OOH venues that have adopted our services and increasing advertising revenue on our DOOH ad-supported service delivered through our Loop Player and our Partner Network and monetizing content across our DOOH business. We must convince prospective DOOH and Partner Network customers of the benefits and value of our services. Our ability to attract new customers, retain existing customers, and convert users of our DOOH subscription service to our DOOH ad-supported service depends in large part on our ability to continue to offer compelling curated content, leading technologies and products like the Loop Player, superior functionality, and an engaging customer experience.

In addition, in order for us to increase our advertising revenue, we also seek to increase the viewing time that our ad-supported DOOH customers spend on our ad-supported service and find new opportunities to deliver advertising to users on the services. The more content customers stream on the ad-supported service, the more advertising inventory we generally are able to sell. Further, growth in our ad-supported user base increases the size and scope of user pools targeted by advertisers, which improves our ability to deliver relevant advertising to those users in a manner that maximizes our advertising customers’ return on investment and that ultimately allows us to better demonstrate the effectiveness of our advertising solutions and justifies a pricing structure that is advantageous for us. If we fail to grow our ad-supported DOOH customer base, the amount of content streamed, and the viewing time spent by our ad-supported DOOH customers, we may be unable to grow ad-supported revenue.

In order to increase our ad-supported O&O Network and Partner Network customers, we will need to address a number of challenges, including:

24

Table of Contents

Failure to overcome any one of these challenges could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our Partner Network business began in May 2022, and as of the date of this prospectus is composed of two partner relationships and serving an aggregate of 30,500 screens. While we are looking to expand this line of business, there can be no assurance that we will be able to grow this business as planned, increase the number of customers we service in this business or maintain our current level of activity with our current partner relationships, particularly in light of our limited operating history in this line of business. If we lose our relationship with the current partners, or such relationships are scaled back significantly, such loss would be material to our results of operations.

We must operate our business in compliance with the licenses that we require to provide our services.

The provisions of certain of our license agreements may require consent to implement improvements to, or otherwise change, our services. We may not be able to obtain consent from our rights holders to add additional features and functionality to our services or our rights holders may be delayed in providing such consent, which may hinder our ability to be responsive to our users’ tastes and preferences and may make us less competitive with other services. For example, we may need to obtain consent of rights holders to add the ability for customers of DOOH locations to interact with certain of our content and determine which music videos might play next. In many instances, improvements to the functionality of our services may require the consent of rights holders and, in some such instances, increases in fee payments to such rights holders. We cannot ensure that any such additional required fees will be on financially feasible terms for the Company and, as a result, we may be required to develop alternative options or forego functionality improvements to our services which could negatively impact our business and financial results.

We face and will continue to face competition for ad-supported users, premium subscribers, and user listening time.

We compete for the time and attention of consumers who view our content with other content providers based on a number of factors, including quality of experience, relevance, diversity of content, ease of use, price, accessibility, perception of advertising load, brand awareness, and reputation.

We compete with providers of music videos and other short-form unscripted video content, which is purchased or available for free and playable on mobile or other connected devices, including CTVs in OOH locations and venues. These forms of media may be downloaded or accessed by content streams from other online services, including YouTube and Vevo. Many of our current or future competitors are already entrenched or may have significant brand recognition, existing user bases, and/or ability to bundle with other goods and/or services, both globally and regionally, and/or markets which we seek to penetrate.

We also compete with providers of non-music content that offer an on-demand catalog of differing content that is similar to certain of our content, such as the “fail” videos, pet videos and drone footage that we offer in the DOOH market. We face increasing competition from a growing variety of content providers that seek to differentiate their service by content offering and product features, and they may be more successful than us in predicting user preferences, providing popular content, and innovating new features.

We believe that companies with a combination of technical expertise, brand recognition, financial resources, and digital media experience also pose a significant threat of developing competing music video and other video content, as well as other video distribution technologies. If known incumbents in the digital media or entertainment space choose to offer competing services, they may devote greater resources than we have available, have a more accelerated time frame for deployment, and leverage their existing user base and proprietary technologies to provide services that our users and advertisers may view as superior. Our current and future competitors may have higher brand recognition, more established relationships with content licensors and mobile device manufacturers, greater financial, technical, and other resources, more sophisticated technologies, and/or more experience in the markets in which we compete. Our current and future competitors may also engage in mergers or acquisitions with each other to combine and leverage their customers and audiences, making them larger and potentially providing them a competitive advantage in negotiations with counter parties or in marketing to potential customers that we also target. Our current and future competitors may

25

Table of Contents

innovate new features or introduce new ways of consuming or engaging with content that cause our users to use or switch to another product, which would negatively affect our user retention, growth, and engagement.

We compete for a share of advertisers’ overall marketing budgets with other content providers on a variety of factors, including perceived return on investment, effectiveness, and relevance of our advertising products; our pricing structure; and our ability to deliver large volumes or precise types of advertisements to targeted user demographic pools. We also compete for advertisers with a range of internet companies, including major internet portals, search engine companies, social media sites, and mobile applications, as well as traditional advertising channels such as terrestrial radio and television.

Large internet companies with strong brand recognition, such as Facebook, Google, Amazon, and Twitter, have significant numbers of sales personnel, substantial advertising inventory, proprietary advertising technology solutions, and traffic across web, mobile, and connected devices that provide a significant competitive advantage and have a significant impact on pricing for reaching these user bases. Failure to compete successfully against our current or future competitors could result in the loss of current or potential advertisers, a reduced share of our advertisers’ overall marketing budget, the loss of existing or potential users, or diminished brand strength, which could adversely affect our pricing and margins, lower our revenue, increase our research and development and marketing expenses, and prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability.

We depend upon third-party licenses for substantially all of the content we stream and an adverse change to, loss of, or claim that we do not hold necessary licenses may materially adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

To secure the rights to stream content, we enter into license agreements to obtain licenses from rights holders such as record labels, recording artists, music publishers, performance rights organizations, collecting societies, and other copyright owners or their agents, and we pay royalties or other consideration to such parties or their agents. We cannot guarantee that our efforts to obtain all necessary licenses to stream content will be successful, nor that the licenses available to us now will continue to be available in the future at rates and on terms that are favorable or commercially reasonable or at all. The terms of these licenses, including the royalty rates that we are required to pay pursuant to them, may change as a result of changes in our bargaining power, the industry, laws and regulations, or for other reasons. Increases in royalty rates or changes to other terms of these licenses may materially impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

We enter into music license agreements to obtain rights to stream music videos, including from the major record labels who hold the rights to stream a significant number of sound recordings — Universal Music Group (“Universal”), Sony Music Entertainment (“Sony”), and Warner Music Group (“Warner” and collectively with Universal and Sony, the “Music Labels”). Our current license agreements with the Music Labels for our DOOH business have been in effect (or have been renewed) for several years, and the Music Labels have requested a review and update of those licenses. Although the basic outlines of these licenses are standardized by the licensors and we do not anticipate any issue in the timely renewal of these licenses, the updating of such licenses may increase our license costs associated with such rights, including the percentage of revenue attributable to the record labels and our minimum guaranteed payment obligations. A significant majority of our DOOH business relies upon these licenses, and if we fail to maintain and renew these licenses our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially harmed. With respect to our D2C business, the licenses with the Music Labels are similarly standardized, and although we do not anticipate any issue in the timely renewal of these licenses as needed, any future updates of such licenses similarly may increase our license costs associated with such rights, including the percentage of revenue attributable to the record labels and our minimum guaranteed payment obligations.

Our business model requires that we also obtain two additional types of licenses with respect to musical compositions: mechanical and public performance rights. Mechanical licenses are required to distribute recordings written by someone other than the person or entity conducting the distribution. Such licenses ensure that the music publisher, and ultimately the songwriter, receive compensation for the use of their work. A public performance license is an agreement between a music user and the owner of a copyrighted composition (song) that grants permission to play the song in public, online, or on radio.

We have obtained direct licenses for mechanical rights with the three largest publishers, which are respective affiliates of each of the Music Labels for our OOH business and for two of the Music Labels for our D2C business. As a general matter, once music licenses are obtained from the Music Labels, their affiliate publishing companies enter into agreements with respect to the mechanical licenses. If our business does not perform as expected or if the rates are modified to be higher than the proposed rates, our music video content acquisition costs could increase, which could negatively impact our business, operating results, and financial

condition, hinder our ability to provide interactive features in our services, or cause one or more of our services not to be economically viable due to an increase in content acquisition costs.

In the United States, public performance rights are generally obtained through intermediaries known as performance rights organizations (“PROs”), which negotiate blanket licenses with copyright users for the public performance of compositions in their repertory, collect royalties under such licenses, and distribute those royalties to music publishers and songwriters. The royalty rates available to us today may not be available to us in the future. Licenses provided by two of these PROs: the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (“ASCAP”) and Broadcast Music, Inc. (“BMI”) cover much of the music we stream. ASCAP and BMI are governed by consent decrees relating to decades-old litigations. These agreements typically have one-to-two-year terms, and some have continuous renewal provisions, with either party able to terminate for convenience within 30 to 60 days prior to the end of the applicable term (or commencement of the subsequent term) and are limited to the territory of the United States and its territories and possessions. An increase in the number of compositions that must be licensed from PROs that are not subject to the consent decrees could likewise impede our ability to license public performance rights on favorable terms and may increase the cost of our operations.

In other parts of the world, including Latin America, we obtain reproduction and performance licenses for musical compositions either through local collecting societies representing publishers or from publishers directly, or a combination thereof. We cannot guarantee that our licenses with collecting societies and our direct licenses with publishers provide full coverage for all of the musical compositions we make available to our users in such countries.

With respect to non-music content, we obtain distribution rights directly from rights holders. We then negotiate licenses directly with individuals or entities in return for providing such licensors with a share of revenue derived from the licensed content distributed through our services. We are dependent on those who provide the content that appears on our services complying with the terms and conditions of our license agreements. However, we cannot guarantee that rights holders or content providers will comply with their obligations, and such failure to do so may materially impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

There is also no guarantee that we have all of the licenses we need to stream content, as the process of obtaining such licenses involves many rights holders, some of whom are unknown, and a myriad of complex legal issues across many jurisdictions, including open questions of law as to when and whether particular licenses are needed. Additionally, there is a risk that rights holders, creators, performers, writers and their agents, or societies, unions, guilds, or legislative or regulatory bodies will create or attempt to create new rights or regulations that could require us to enter into license agreements with, and pay royalties to, newly defined groups of rights holders, some of which may be difficult or impossible to identify.

Even when we are able to enter into license agreements with rights holders, we cannot guarantee that such agreements will continue to be renewed indefinitely. For example, from time to time, our license agreements with certain rights holders and/or their agents expire while we negotiate their renewals and, per industry custom and practice, we may enter into brief (for example, month-, week-, or even days-long) extensions of those agreements or provisional licenses and/or continue to operate on an at-will basis as if the license agreement had been extended, including by our continuing to make content available. During these periods, we may not have assurance of long-term access to such rights holders’ content, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and could lead to potential copyright infringement claims. It is also possible that such agreements will never be renewed at all. License agreements are generally restrictive as to how the licensed content is accessed, displayed, and manipulated, as licensors seek to protect the use of their content. In order to provide the highest level of services and best experience for our customers and end-users, we may from time to time seek expansion of our licenses to provide us with greater functionality of our services as it relates to the relevant content. The inability to expand our licenses, or the lack of renewal, or termination, of one or more of our license agreements, or the renewal of a license agreement on less favorable terms, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

We have no control over third-party providers of our content. The concentration of control of content by our major providers means that even one entity, or a small number of entities working together, may unilaterally affect our access to music video and other content.

We rely on various rights holders, over whom we have no control, for the content we make available on our services. We cannot guarantee that these parties will always choose to license to us or license to us on terms that are acceptable to us.

27

Table of Contents

The music industry has a high level of concentration, which means that one or a small number of entities may, on their own, take actions that adversely affect our business. For example, with respect to music video content, the audio/visual (“A/V”) recordings licensed to us under our agreements with Universal, Sony, and Warner make up the vast majority of the music currently consumed on our services. Our business may be adversely affected if our access to music is limited or delayed because of deterioration in our relationships with one or more of these significant rights holders or if they choose not to license to us for any other reason. In addition, rights holders also may attempt to take advantage of their market power (including by leveraging their publishing affiliate) to seek onerous financial or other terms from us or otherwise impose restrictions that hinder our ability to further innovate our services and content offerings. This may be of particular concern in markets where local content is important and such local content is held by local major labels or even individual artists, making it difficult to obtain such local content at all or on economically favorable terms. As a result, the loss of rights to a major publisher catalog would force us to take down a significant portion of popular repertoire in the applicable territory or territories, which would significantly disadvantage us in such territory or territories. The lack of complete metadata with respect to publisher ownership may also present challenges in taking down all the tracks of a given publisher. Even if we can secure rights to music video content from record labels and other copyright owners, recording artists may object and may exert public or private pressure on those record labels or copyright owners or other third parties to discontinue licensing rights to us, hold back content from us, or increase royalty rates. As a result, our ability to continue to license rights to music video content is subject to convincing a broad range of stakeholders of the value and quality of our services. To the extent that we are unable to license a large amount of content or the content of certain popular artists, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially harmed.

We are a party to many license agreements that are complex and impose numerous obligations upon us that may make it difficult to operate our business and provide all the functionality we would like for our services, and a breach of such agreements could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Many of our license agreements are complex and impose numerous obligations on us, including obligations to, among other things:

Many of our license agreements grant the licensor the right to audit our compliance with the terms and conditions of such agreements. Some of our license agreements also include steering, non-discrimination, and so-called “most favored nations” provisions, which require that certain material terms of such agreements are no less favorable than those provided in our agreements with any other similarly situated licensor. If triggered, these provisions could cause our payments or other obligations under those agreements to escalate substantially. Additionally, some of our license agreements require consent to undertake certain business initiatives and, without such consent, our ability to undertake or continue operating new business initiatives may be limited. This could hurt our competitive position.

If we materially breach any of these obligations or any other obligations set forth in any of our license agreements, or if we use content in ways that are found to exceed the scope of such agreements, we could be subject to monetary penalties, and/or rights holders could impede our business by withholding content, discounts, and bundle approvals and the rights to launch new service

offerings, and could ultimately terminate our rights under such license agreements, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

We are dependent on key distributors. The loss of any such key distributor or any delay or interruption in the distribution of our products or services could adversely impact our revenue and operations.

We rely on third-party distributors and affiliates to distribute our Loop Player and promote our services. These third parties may have varying expertise in marketing and selling our products and services and may also sell other devices and services that could result in less focus on our products and services.

If these distributors and affiliates terminate their relationships with us or under-perform, we may be unable to maintain or increase our active Loop Players and our level of revenue. We will also need to engage additional distributors and affiliates to grow our business and expand our OOH client base. These third parties may not commit the necessary resources to market and sell our products and services to the level of our expectations. If current or future distributors and affiliates do not perform adequately, our revenue and operations will be adversely affected.

If there is a delay or interruption in the distribution of our products or services or if these third parties damage our products or mischaracterize our services, it could negatively impact our revenue and operations and may require significant management attention. In addition, any negative impact these third parties may have on our services, could expose us to potential liability, damage our reputation and the reputation of our products, services or brands or otherwise harm our business.

The coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic or the widespread outbreak of any other communicable disease could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The spread of COVID-19 around the world affected the United States and global economies and has affected our operations and those of third parties on which we rely, including by causing disruptions in staffing, order fulfillment, and demand for product. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to affect our revenue. In particular, certain DOOH locations have closed or limited their public capacity, which may impact their willingness to invest in on-site entertainment, such as our services. The continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022 is highly uncertain and subject to change.

As COVID-19 continues to evolve, the extent to which COVID-19 impacts operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration and severity of any additional outbreak, and the actions that may be required to try and contain COVID-19 or treat its impact. We continue to monitor the pandemic and, the extent to which the continued spread of the virus adversely affects our customer base and therefore revenue. As the COVID-19 pandemic is complex and rapidly evolving, our plans as described above may change. At this point, we cannot reasonably estimate the duration and severity of this pandemic, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Our royalty payment scheme is complex, and it is difficult to estimate the amount payable under our license agreements. We may underpay or overpay royalty amounts payable to others, which may harm our business.

Under our license agreements and relevant statutes, we must pay all required royalties to record labels, music publishers, and other copyright owners in order to stream content. The determination of the amount and timing of such payments is complex and subject to a number of variables, including the type of content streamed, the country in which it is streamed, the service tier such content is streamed on, the amount of revenue generated by the streaming of the content, the identity of the license holder to whom royalties are owed, the current size of our user base, our current ratio of ad-supported users to premium subscribers in each of our DOOH and D2C businesses, the applicability of any most favored nations provisions, and any applicable advertising fees and discounts, among other variables. Additionally, we have certain arrangements whereby royalty costs are paid in advance or are subject to minimum guaranteed amounts. An accrual is estimated when actual royalty costs to be incurred during a contractual period are expected to fall short of the minimum guaranteed amount. Additionally, we also have license agreements that include so-called “most favored nations” provisions that require that the material terms of such agreements are the most favorable material terms provided to any music licensor, which, if triggered, could cause our royalty payments under those agreements to escalate substantially. As we have only recently introduced our D2C service and have yet to recognize substantial revenue from such services and may not do so during

29

Table of Contents

the initial term of our licenses, we expect that any minimum guaranteed payments on licenses required for that service will be the maximum we will need to pay out under those licenses for the relevant time period.

We cannot assure you that the internal controls and systems we use to determine royalties payable will always be effective. We have in the past identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that related to, among other things, accounting for rights holder liabilities and may identify additional material weaknesses in the future. If we fail to implement and maintain effective controls relating to rights holder liabilities, we may underpay/under-accrue or overpay/over-accrue the royalty amounts payable to record labels, music publishers, and other copyright owners. Underpayment could result in (i) litigation or other disputes with record labels, music publishers, and other copyright owners; (ii) the unexpected payment of additional royalties in material amounts; and (iii) damage to our business relationships with record labels, music publishers, other copyright owners, and artists and/or artist groups. If we overpay royalties, we may be unable to reclaim such overpayments, and our profits will suffer. Failure to accurately pay our royalties may adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Minimum guarantees and advances required under certain of our license agreements may limit our operating flexibility and may adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Certain of our license agreements contain significant minimum guarantees or advanced payments. Such minimum guarantees related to our content acquisition costs are not always tied to our revenue and/or user growth forecasts (e.g., number of users, active units, premium subscribers) or the number of video music sound recordings and musical compositions used on our services. Accordingly, our ability to achieve and sustain profitability and operating leverage on our services in part depends on our ability to increase our revenue through increased sales of our services and advertising sales on terms that maintain an adequate gross margin. The duration of our license agreements for sound recordings and musical compositions that contain minimum guarantees is frequently two years, but we do not currently have enough customers and do not anticipate acquiring enough customers whose revenue could cover such minimum guarantees and any existing customers may cancel their services at any time. Our forecasts of customer acquisition or retention and advertising sales during the term of our license agreements do not meet the number of customers required to cover our minimum guaranteed payments. To the extent our services revenue growth or advertising sales do not materially increase during the term of our license agreements, our business, operating results, and financial condition will be adversely affected as a result of such minimum guarantees. In addition, the fixed cost nature of these minimum guarantees may limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the market segments in which we operate.

We rely on estimates of the market share of streaming content owned by each content provider, as well as our own user growth and forecasted advertising revenue, to forecast whether such minimum guarantees could be recouped against our actual content acquisition costs incurred over the duration of the license agreement. As we have not seen significant growth in our D2C business, we expect the minimum guarantees for related licenses not to be recouped for the foreseeable future.

Difficulties in obtaining accurate and comprehensive information necessary to identify the compositions embodied in music video sound recordings on our services and the ownership thereof may impact our ability to perform our obligations under our licenses, affect the size of our catalog that can be offered to customers and end-users, impact our ability to control content acquisition costs, and lead to potential copyright infringement claims.

Comprehensive and accurate ownership information for the musical compositions embodied in music videos is often unavailable to us or difficult or, in some cases, impossible for us to obtain, sometimes because it is withheld by the owners or administrators of such rights. We currently rely on the assistance of third parties to determine certain of this information. If the information provided to us or obtained by such third parties does not comprehensively or accurately identify the ownership of musical compositions, or if we are unable to determine which musical compositions correspond to specific sound recordings, it may be difficult or impossible to identify the appropriate rights holders from whom to obtain licenses or to whom to pay royalties. This may make it difficult to comply with the obligations of any agreements with those rights holders. This may also make it difficult to identify content for removal from the services if we lose the rights to such musical compositions. These challenges, and others concerning the licensing of musical compositions embodied in sound recordings and music videos on our services, may subject us to significant liability for copyright infringement, breach of contract, or other claims.

We face many risks associated with our international expansion, including difficulties obtaining rights to stream content on favorable terms.

We are considering the further expansion of our operations into additional international markets. However, offering our services in a new geographical area involves numerous risks and challenges. For example, the licensing terms offered by rights organizations and individual copyright owners in countries around the world are currently relatively expensive. Addressing licensing structure and royalty rate issues in any new geographic market requires us to make very substantial investments of time, capital, and other resources, and our business could fail if such investments do not succeed. There can be no assurance that we will succeed or achieve any return on these investments.

In addition to the above, expansion around the world exposes us to other risks such as:

As a result of these obstacles, we may find it impossible or prohibitively expensive to enter additional markets, or entry into foreign markets could be delayed, which could hinder our ability to grow our business.

If we fail to effectively manage our expected growth, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

Our growth in 2021 and 2022 has placed, and will continue to place, significant demands on our management and our operational and financial infrastructure. In order to attain and then maintain profitability, we will need to recruit, integrate, and retain skilled and experienced personnel who can demonstrate our value proposition to users, advertisers, and business partners and who can increase the monetization of the content streamed on our services, particularly in OOH locations and on CTVs and mobile devices. Continued growth could also strain our ability to maintain reliable service levels for our users, effectively monetize the video content streamed, develop and improve our operational and financial controls, and recruit, train, and retain highly skilled personnel. As we seek to grow our operations in size, scope, and complexity, we will need to improve and upgrade our systems and infrastructure, which will require significant expenditures and allocation of valuable technical and management resources. If we fail to maintain efficiency and allocate limited resources effectively in our organization as it grows, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

Our business emphasizes rapid innovation and prioritizes long-term customer and user engagement over short-term financial condition or results of operations. That strategy may yield results that sometimes do not align with the market’s expectations. If that happens, our stock price may be negatively affected.

Our business is expected to grow and become more complex, and our success depends on our ability to quickly develop and launch new and innovative products. Our approach to the development of our business could result in unintended outcomes or decisions that are poorly received by our customers, users, advertisers, or partners. We have made, and expect to continue to make, significant investments to develop and launch new products, services, and initiatives, which may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including the fact that such offerings may not be commercially viable for an indefinite period or at all, or may not result in an adequate return of capital on our investments. No assurance can be given that such new offerings will be successful and will not adversely affect our reputation, operating results, and financial condition. In certain instances, we prioritize our long-term customer and user engagement over short-term financial condition or results of operations. We may make decisions that reduce our short-term revenue or profitability if we believe that the decisions benefit the aggregate customer and user experience and will thereby improve our financial performance over the long term. These decisions may not produce the long-term benefits that we expect, in which case our user growth and engagement, our relationships with advertisers and partners, as well as our business, operating results, and financial condition could be seriously harmed.

If we fail to accurately predict, recommend, curate and play content that our customers and users enjoy, we may fail to retain existing customers and users and attract new customers and users in sufficient numbers to meet investor expectations for growth or to operate our business profitably.

We believe that a key differentiating factor between Loop Media and other streaming content providers in the DOOH and D2C markets is our ability to curate content and deliver that content to customers and users for them to enjoy. We have invested, and will continue to invest, significant resources in our content curation and technologies that help predict what customers and users will enjoy. However, such investments may not yield an attractive return and such refinements may not be effective. The effectiveness of our ability to predict user preferences and curate content tailored to our customers and users’ individual tastes depends in part on our ability to gather and effectively analyze large amounts of customer and user data. While we have a large catalog of music videos and other content available to stream, we must continuously identify, analyze, and curate additional content that our customers request and that our users will enjoy, and we may not effectively do so. Failure to do so could materially adversely affect our ability to adequately attract and retain users, increase content hours consumed, and sell advertising to meet investor expectations for growth or to operate the business profitably.

Expansion of our operations to deliver more non-music video content subjects us to increased business, legal, financial, reputational, and competitive risks.

Expansion of our operations to deliver more non-music video content beyond music videos involves numerous risks and challenges, including increased capital requirements, new competitors, and the need to develop new strategic relationships. Growth in these areas may require additional changes to our existing business model and cost structure, modifications to our infrastructure, and exposure to new regulatory, legal, and reputational risks, including infringement liability, any of which may require additional expertise that we currently do not have. We may not be able to generate sufficient revenue from additional non-music video content to offset the costs of creating or acquiring this content. Further, we have initially established a reputation as a music video streaming

32

Table of Contents

service and our ability to gain acceptance and listenership for other non-music video content, and thus our ability to continue to attract customers, users and advertisers to this content, is not certain. Failure to successfully monetize and generate revenues from such content, including failure to obtain or retain rights to non-music video content on acceptable terms, or at all, or to effectively manage the numerous risks and challenges associated with such expansion could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Streaming content to our D2C users depends on effectively working with operating systems, online platforms, hardware, networks, regulations, and standards we do not control. Changes in our services or those operating systems, hardware, networks, regulations, or standards, and our limitations on our ability to access those platforms, operating systems, hardware, or networks may seriously harm our business.

We rely on a variety of operating systems, online platforms, hardware, and networks to reach our D2C users. These platforms range from desktop and mobile operating systems and application stores, to wearables and OTT distribution platforms and services. The owners or operators of these platforms and services may not share our interests and may restrict our access to them or place conditions on access that would materially affect our ability to access those platforms and services. In particular, where the owner of a platform is also our direct competitor, the platform may attempt to use this position to affect our access to users and ability to compete. For example, an online platform might arbitrarily remove our services from its platform, deprive us of access to business-critical data, or engage in other harmful practices. Online platforms also may unilaterally impose certain requirements that negatively affect our ability to convert users of our Loop App to the subscription service, such as conditions that limit our freedom to communicate promotions and offers to our users. Similarly, online platforms may force us to use the platform’s payment processing systems that may be inferior to, and more costly than, other payment processing services available in the market. Online platforms frequently change the rules and requirements for services like ours to access the platform, and such changes may adversely affect the success or desirability of our services. To maintain certain elements of the services on a platform, we may need to make additional concessions to the platform operator that may adversely affect other aspects of the business or require us to invest significant expenses. Online platforms may limit our access to information about users, limiting our ability to convert and retain them. Online platforms also may deny access to application programming interfaces or documentation, limiting the functionality of our services on the platform.

Because devices providing access to our D2C services are not manufactured and sold by us, these devices may not perform reliably, and any faulty connection between these devices and our services may result in consumer dissatisfaction toward us, which could damage our brand. We may not be able to comply with the requirements of various operating systems, online platforms, hardware, networks, regulations, and standards on which our services depend, and failure to do so could result in serious harm to our business.

If our security systems are breached, we may face civil liability and/or statutory fines, and/or enforcement action causing us to change our practices, and public perception of our security measures could be diminished, either of which would negatively affect our ability to attract and retain OOH customers, premium subscribers, Ad-Supported users, advertisers, content providers, and other business partners.

Techniques used to gain unauthorized access to data and software are constantly evolving, and we may be unable to anticipate or prevent unauthorized access to data pertaining to our users, including credit card and debit card information and other personal data about our users, business partners, and employees. Like all internet services, our services, which are supported by our own systems and those of third parties that we work with, are vulnerable to software bugs, computer viruses, internet worms, break-ins, phishing attacks, attempts to overload servers with denial-of-service, or other attacks and similar disruptions from unauthorized use of our and third-party computer systems, any of which could lead to system interruptions, delays, or shutdowns, causing loss of critical data or unauthorized access to personal data. Computer malware, viruses, and computer hacking, and phishing attacks have become more prevalent in our industry and may occur on our systems in the future. Though it is difficult to determine what, if any, harm may directly result from any specific interruption or attack, any failure to maintain performance, reliability, security, and availability of our products and technical infrastructure to the satisfaction of our users may harm our reputation and our ability to retain existing users and attract new users. The systems and processes that we have designed to protect our data and our users’ data, to prevent data loss, to disable undesirable accounts and activities on our platform, and to prevent or detect security breaches, may not prevent security breaches, and we may incur significant costs in protecting against or remediating cyber-attacks.

33

Table of Contents

In addition, if an actual or perceived breach of security occurs to our systems or a third party’s systems, we may face regulatory or civil liability and public perception of our security measures could be diminished, either of which would negatively affect our ability to attract and retain users, which in turn would harm our efforts to attract and retain advertisers, content providers, and other business partners. We also would be required to expend significant resources to mitigate the breach of security and to address matters related to any such breach.

Certain of our license agreements, including those with the Music Labels, have provisions that allow for the termination of such agreements in the case of an uncured data security breach. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to maintain the security of data relating to our users, to comply with our posted privacy policy, laws and regulations, rules of self-regulatory organizations, industry standards, and contractual provisions to which we may be bound, could result in the loss of confidence in us, or result in actions against us by governmental entities, data protection authorities, or others, all of which could result in litigation and financial losses, and could potentially cause us to lose users, advertisers, and revenues. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition and could cause our stock price to drop significantly.

Changes in how network operators handle and charge for access to data that travel across their networks could adversely impact our business.

We rely upon the ability of our customers to access our service through the internet. If network operators block, restrict or otherwise impair access to our service over their networks, our service and business could be negatively affected. To the extent that network operators implement usage-based pricing, including meaningful bandwidth caps, or otherwise try to monetize access to their networks by data providers, we could incur greater operating expenses and our customer acquisition and retention could be negatively impacted. Furthermore, to the extent network operators create tiers of internet access service and either charge us for or prohibit us from being available through these tiers, our business could be negatively impacted.

Our services and software may contain undetected software bugs or vulnerabilities, which could manifest in ways that could seriously harm our reputation and our business.

Our services and products like the Loop Player or any other product we may introduce in the future, may contain undetected software bugs, hardware errors, and other vulnerabilities. These bugs and errors can manifest in any number of ways in our products, including through diminished performance, security vulnerabilities, malfunctions, or even permanently disabled products. We plan to update our products from time to time, and as a result some errors in our products may be discovered only after a product has been used by users and may in some cases be detected only under certain circumstances or after extended use. Additionally, many of our products are available on multiple operating systems and/or multiple devices offered by different manufacturers, and changes or updates to such operating systems or devices may cause errors or functionality problems in our products, including rendering our products inoperable by some users. Any errors, bugs, or other vulnerabilities discovered in our code or backend after release could damage our reputation, drive away users, allow third parties to manipulate or exploit our software (including, for example, providing mobile device users a means to suppress advertisements without payment and gain access to features only available to the ad-supported service on tablets and desktop computers), lower revenue, and expose us to claims for damages, any of which could seriously harm our business. Additionally, errors, bugs, or other vulnerabilities may — either directly or if exploited by third parties — affect our ability to make accurate royalty payments.

We could also face claims for product liability, tort, or breach of warranty. Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, is costly and may divert management’s attention and seriously harm our reputation and our business. In addition, if our liability insurance coverage proves inadequate or coverage is unavailable, our business could be seriously harmed.

Interruptions, delays, or discontinuations in service arising from our own systems or from third parties could impair the delivery of our services and harm our business.

We rely on systems housed in our own facilities and upon third parties, including bandwidth providers and third-party “cloud” data storage services, to enable our users to receive our content in a dependable, timely, and efficient manner. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, periodic service interruptions and delays involving our own systems and those of third parties that we work with. Both our own facilities and those of third parties are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunications failures, and similar events. They are also subject to break-ins, sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism, the failure of physical, administrative, technical, and cyber security measures, terrorist acts, natural disasters, human

34

Table of Contents

error, the financial insolvency of third parties that we work with, and other unanticipated problems or events. The occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions in our services and unauthorized access to, or alteration of, the content and data contained on our systems that these third parties store and deliver on our behalf.

Any disruption in the services provided by these third parties could materially adversely impact our business reputation, customer relations, and operating results. Upon expiration or termination of any of our agreements with third parties, we may not be able to replace the services provided to us in a timely manner or on terms and conditions, including service levels and cost, that are favorable to us, and a transition from one third party to another could subject us to operational delays and inefficiencies until the transition is complete.

User metrics and other estimates could be subject to inherent challenges in measurement, and real or perceived inaccuracies in those metrics may seriously harm and negatively affect our reputation and our business.

We expect to regularly internally review key metrics related to the operation of our business, including metrics related to our active units, premium revenue per user, subscriber numbers, OOH venue locations, and other metrics to evaluate growth trends, service levels, measure our performance, and make strategic decisions. These metrics use or will use internal Company data and will not be validated by an independent third party. While these metrics are expected to be based on reasonable estimates of our user base for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our services are used across large populations of users and customers. The calculations of our active units may not reflect the actual number of people using our services (if one user has more than one account or if one account is used by multiple users). Errors or inaccuracies in our metrics or data could result in incorrect business decisions and inefficiencies, including expending resources to implement unnecessary business measures or failing to take required actions to attract enough users to satisfy our growth strategies.

In addition, advertisers generally rely on third-party measurement services to calculate metrics related to our advertising business, and these third-party measurement services may not reflect our true audience. Some of our demographic data also may be incomplete or inaccurate because users self-report their names and dates of birth or because we receive them from other third parties. Consequently, the personal data we have may differ from our users’ actual names and ages. If advertisers, partners, or investors do not perceive our user, geographic, or other demographic metrics to be accurate representations of our user base, or if we discover material inaccuracies in our user, geographic, or other demographic metrics, our reputation may be materially harmed.

We face risks, such as unforeseen costs, and potential liabilities in connection with content we license and/or distribute through our services.

As a distributor of content, we face potential liability for defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement, right of publicity or privacy claims, misinformation, personal injury torts or other claims based on the nature and content of materials that we license and/or distribute. We also face potential liability for content used in promoting our service, including marketing materials and features on our platforms such as user reviews. Allegations of impropriety, even if unfounded, could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and our business.

To the extent we do not accurately anticipate costs or mitigate risks, or if we become liable for content we license and/or distribute, our business may suffer. Litigation to defend these claims could be costly and the expenses and damages arising from any liability or unforeseen production risks could harm our results of operations. We may not be indemnified to cover claims or costs of these types, and we may not have insurance coverage for these types of claims.

Various regulations as well as self-regulation related to privacy and data security concerns pose the threat of lawsuits, regulatory fines and other liability, require us to expend significant resources, and may harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

As we collect and utilize personal data about our customers and users as they interact with our services, we are subject to new and existing laws and regulations that govern our use of user data. We are likely to be required to expend significant capital to ensure ongoing compliance with these laws and regulations. Claims or allegations that we have violated laws and regulations relating to privacy and data security could result in negative publicity and a loss of confidence in us by our users and our partners. We may be required to make significant expenditures to resolve these matters and we could be subject to civil liability and/or fines or other penalties, including by government and data protection authorities.

Existing privacy-related laws and regulations in the United States, and in other countries are evolving and are subject to potentially differing interpretations, and various U.S. federal and state or other international legislative and regulatory bodies may expand or enact laws regarding privacy and data security-related matters. Laws coming into effect in various states, adoption of a comprehensive federal data privacy law, and new legislation in international jurisdictions may continue to change the data protection landscape globally and could result in us expending considerable resources to meet these requirements.

In the United States, laws and regulations applicable to personal information include industry specific federal legislation, federal and state privacy and consumer protection laws and industry self-regulatory initiatives and frameworks. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which came into effect in January 2020, establishes disclosure and transparency rules, and creates new data privacy rights for California residents, including the ability to control how we share their personal information with third parties. The CCPA also provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches that may increase data breach litigation. The impact of this legislation may require us to modify our data processing practices and policies and incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply. The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which amends the CCPA by enhancing such data privacy rights of California residents and expanding such disclosure and transparency rules, was enacted in November 2020 and goes into full effect in January of 2023. Nevada also enacted a data privacy law in 2020 granting Nevada residents the right to opt out of the sale of their personal information. On March 2, 2021, Virginia enacted the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA) which will go into full effect in January of 2023. We may also be subject to new data protection laws including legislation currently pending in other states including Washington, and New York. We may also from time to time be subject to, or face assertions that we are subject to, additional obligations relating to personal information by contract or due to assertions that self-regulatory obligations or industry standards apply to our practices. Our failure to comply with these data protection laws or any action or suspected security incident may result in governmental actions, fines and non-monetary penalties, or civil liability, which may harm our business. Any expansion of our operations into new markets could result in increased compliance costs to the Company with respect to data privacy regulatory regimes in such other markets.

We may find it necessary or desirable to join self-regulatory bodies or other privacy-related organizations that require compliance with their rules pertaining to privacy and data security. We also may be bound by contractual obligations that limit our ability to collect, use, disclose, share, and leverage user data and to derive economic value from it. New laws, amendments to, or reinterpretations of existing laws, rules of self-regulatory bodies, industry standards, and contractual obligations, as well as changes in our users’ expectations and demands regarding privacy and data security, may limit our ability to collect, use, and disclose, and to leverage and derive economic value from user data. Restrictions on our ability to collect, access and harness user data, or to use or disclose user data, may require us to expend significant resources to adapt to these changes, and would in turn limit our ability to stream personalized content to our users and offer advertising and promotional opportunities to users on the services.

We have incurred, and will continue to incur, expenses to comply with privacy and security standards and protocols imposed by law, regulation, self-regulatory bodies, industry standards, and contractual obligations. Any failure to comply with privacy laws could result in litigation, regulatory or governmental investigations, enforcement action requiring us to change the way we use personal data, restrictions on how we use personal data, or significant regulatory fines. In addition to statutory enforcement, a data breach could lead to compensation claims by affected individuals (including consumer advocacy groups), negative publicity, and a potential loss of business as a result of customers losing trust in us. Such failures could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operations.

We rely on advertising revenue to monetize our services, and any failure to convince advertisers or advertising demand partners of the benefits of advertising on our services in the future could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our ability to attract and retain advertisers or advertising demand partners, and ultimately to generate advertising revenue, depends on our ability to, for instance:

36

Table of Contents

We may not succeed in capturing a greater share of our advertisers’ or advertising demand partners’ core marketing budgets, particularly if we are unable to achieve the scale, reach, products, and market penetration necessary to demonstrate the effectiveness of our advertising solutions, or if our advertising model proves ineffective or not competitive when compared to other alternatives and platforms through which advertisers choose to invest their budgets. Our advertising demand partners are generally not bound by long-term contracts.

Failure to grow the ad-supported customer and user base and to effectively demonstrate the value of our ad-supported service and other similar offerings on the services to advertisers could result in loss of, or reduced spending by, existing or potential future advertisers or advertising demand partners, which would materially harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Selling advertisements requires that we demonstrate to advertisers and advertising demand partners that our offerings on the services are effective. For example, we need to show that our ad-supported service has substantial reach and engagement by relevant demographic audiences. Some of our demographic data may be incomplete or inaccurate. For example, because ad-supported users self-report their personal data, which may include their genders and dates of birth, the personal data we have may differ from our ad-supported users’ actual genders and ages. If our ad-supported users provide us with incorrect or incomplete information regarding their personal data, such as genders, age, or other attributes we use to target advertisements to users, or the data are otherwise not available to us, then we may fail to target the correct demographic with our advertising. Advertisers often rely on third parties to quantify the reach and effectiveness of our ad products. These third-party measurement services may not reflect our true audience or the performance of our ad products, and their underlying methodologies are subject to change at any time. In addition, the methodologies we apply to measure the key performance indicators that we use to monitor and manage our business may differ from the methodologies used by third-party measurement service providers, who may not integrate effectively with our ad-supported service. Measurement technologies for mobile devices may be even less reliable in quantifying the reach and usage of our ad-supported service, and it is not clear whether such technologies will integrate with our systems or uniformly and comprehensively reflect the reach, usage, or overall audience composition of our ad-supported service. If such third-party measurement providers report lower metrics than we do, there is wide variance among reported metrics, or we cannot adequately integrate with such services that advertisers require, our ability to convince advertisers of the benefits of our ad-supported service could be adversely affected.

The market for programmatic advertising in the digital out-of-home market is evolving. If this market develops slower or differently than we expect, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We derive the vast majority of revenue from programmatic advertising directed at the DOOH market. We expect that programmatic advertising will continue to be a major source of our revenue for the foreseeable future. If the market for programmatic advertising in the DOOH market deteriorates or develops more slowly or differently than we expect, it could reduce demand for our platform and our business, growth prospects and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from advertisements. If we are unable to continue to compete for these advertisements, or if any events occur that negatively impact our relationships with advertising networks, our advertising revenues and operating results would be negatively impacted.

We generate advertising revenue from the sale of digital video advertising delivered through advertising impressions across the Loop Network. We engage with advertising demand partners and advertising agencies to monetize our inventory of advertising impressions by filling such advertising impressions with advertising from companies seeking to advertise in the DOOH market. We need to maintain good relationships with these advertising demand partners to provide us with a sufficient number of advertisements

37

Table of Contents

and to ensure they understand the value of our advertising impressions on our Loop Network. Online advertising is an intensely competitive industry. Many large companies, such as Amazon, Facebook and Google, invest significantly in data analytics to make their websites and platforms more attractive to advertisers. Our advertising revenue is primarily a function of the number of free users and hours of engagement of such free users and our ability to maintain or increase user engagement and satisfaction with our services and enhance returns for our advertising partners. If our relationship with any advertising demand partners terminates for any reason, or if the commercial terms of our relationships are changed or do not continue to be renewed on favorable terms, or if we cannot source high-quality advertisements consistent with our brand or product experience, our business, growth prospects and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We depend on highly skilled key personnel to operate our business, and if we are unable to attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel, our ability to develop and successfully grow our business could be harmed.

We believe that our future success is highly dependent on the talents and contributions of our senior management, including Jon Niermann, our Chief Executive Officer, members of our executive team, and other key employees, such as the key technology, product, content, engineering, finance, research and development, marketing, and sales personnel. Many of our employees have unique skills required for and/or historical knowledge of our business. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate, and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. All of our employees, including our senior management, are free to terminate their employment relationship with us at any time, and their knowledge of our business and industry may be difficult to replace. Qualified individuals are in high demand, particularly in the digital media industry, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. We use equity awards to attract talented employees. If the value or liquidity of our common stock declines significantly and remains depressed, that may prevent us from recruiting and retaining qualified employees. If we are unable to attract and retain our senior management and key employees, we may not be able to achieve our strategic objectives, and our business could be harmed. In addition, we believe that our key executives have developed highly successful and effective working relationships. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain the services of any members of our senior management or other key employees. If one or more of these individuals leave, we may not be able to fully integrate new executives or replicate the current dynamic and working relationships that have developed among our senior management and other key personnel, and our operations could suffer.

We have acquired and invested in, and may continue to acquire or invest in, other companies or technologies, which could divert management’s attention and otherwise disrupt our operations and harm our operating results. We may fail to acquire or invest in companies whose market power or technology could be important to the future success of our business.

We acquired substantially all of the assets of Spkr in the fourth calendar quarter of 2020 and acquired all of the outstanding equity of EON Media Group Pte. Ltd. (“EON Media”) in the second calendar quarter of 2021. In the future, we may seek to acquire or invest in, other companies or technologies that we believe could complement or expand our services or enhance our capabilities or content offerings, or otherwise offer growth opportunities. Pursuit of future potential acquisitions or investments may divert the attention of management and cause us to incur various expenses in identifying, investigating, and pursuing suitable opportunities, whether or not they are consummated. In addition, we have limited experience acquiring and integrating other businesses. We may be unsuccessful in integrating our acquired businesses or any additional business we may acquire in the future, and we may fail to acquire companies whose market power or technology could be important to the future success of our business.

We also may not achieve the anticipated benefits from any acquisition or investment due to a number of factors, including:

38

Table of Contents

If we acquire or invest in other companies, these acquisitions or investments may reduce our operating margins for the foreseeable future. In addition, a significant portion of the purchase price of companies we acquire may be allocated to acquired goodwill, which must be assessed for impairment at least annually. In the future, if our acquisitions or investments do not yield expected returns, we may be required to take charges to our operating results based on this impairment assessment process. Acquisitions or investments could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, if a business we acquire or invest in fails to meet our expectations, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

If our acquired intangible assets become impaired in the future, we may incur significant impairment charges.

At least annually, or whenever events or circumstances arise indicating impairment may exist, we review goodwill for impairment as required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). In 2020, we recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million related to the impairment of intangible assets acquired in 2019. Additionally, during the 12 months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded an impairment charge of $11.2 million, a portion of which was related to a $1.4 million write-off of intangible assets related to our acquisition of SPKR, Inc and an intangible asset impairment of $2.6 million and a goodwill impairment of $4.4 million related to our EON Media acquisition. As of June 30, 2022, we had remaining goodwill of approximately $2.0 million.

In the future, we may need to further reduce the carrying amount of goodwill and incur additional non-cash charges to our results of operations. Such charges could have the effect of reducing goodwill with a corresponding impairment expense and may have a material effect upon our reported results. The additional expense may reduce our reported profitability or increase our reported losses in future periods and could negatively affect the value of our securities, our ability to obtain other sources of capital, and may generally have a negative effect on our future operations.

​

Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict.

Our revenue and operating results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. Factors that may contribute to the variability of our quarterly and annual results include:

39

Table of Contents

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2021, and if we fail to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be adversely affected.

We are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in those controls. The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting were identified in the normal course as of September 30, 2021:

We have concluded that these material weaknesses arose because we did not have the necessary business processes, systems, personnel, and related internal controls. We began to undertake measures to address material weaknesses in our internal controls with the help of an outside firm, retained in July 2021. We will continue to take steps to remediate these material weaknesses, and we expect improvement in fiscal year 2022.

If we continue to have material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or report them within the timeframes required by law or stock exchange regulations, and we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which would cause the price of our common stock to

Table of Contents

decline. Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we are required to evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and provide a management report as to internal control over financial reporting. Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting also could potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC, or other regulatory authorities, or stockholder lawsuits, which could require additional financial and management resources. We may be unable to fully remediate previously identified material weaknesses, or we may identify additional material weaknesses in the future, which could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property

Assertions by third parties of infringement or other violations by us of their intellectual property rights could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Third parties may assert that we have infringed, misappropriated, or otherwise violated their copyrights, patents, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights, and as we face increasing competition, the possibility of intellectual property rights claims against us grows. Our ability to provide our services is dependent upon our ability to license intellectual property rights to audio content, including video music recordings, any musical compositions embodied therein, as well as other visual content and any other media assets that content providers, artists, and/or labels can add or provide. Various laws and regulations govern the copyright and other intellectual property rights associated with audio and visual content, including video music and sound recordings and musical compositions. Existing laws and regulations are evolving and subject to different interpretations, and various legislative or regulatory bodies may expand current or enact new laws or regulations. Although we seek to comply with applicable statutory, regulatory, and judicial frameworks by, for example, entering into license agreements, we may unknowingly be infringing or violating any third-party intellectual property rights, or may do so in the future. Moreover, while we may often be able to seek indemnities from our licensors with respect to infringement claims that may relate to the content, they provide to us, such indemnities may not be sufficient to cover the associated liability if the licensor at issue does not have adequate financial resources.

In addition, music, internet, technology, and media companies are frequently subject to litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation, or other violations of intellectual property rights. Many companies in these industries have substantially larger patent and intellectual property portfolios than we do, which could make us a target for litigation. We may not be able to assert counterclaims against parties that sue us for patent, or other intellectual property infringement. In addition, various “non-practicing entities” that own patents and other intellectual property rights often attempt to aggressively assert claims in order to extract value from technology companies. Further, from time to time we may introduce new products and services, including in territories where we currently do not have an offering, which could increase our exposure to patent and other intellectual property claims from competitors and non-practicing entities. Assertions of third-party intellectual property rights or any infringement or misappropriation claims arising from such assertions could substantially harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. If we are forced to defend against any infringement or misappropriation claims, whether they are with or without merit, are settled out of court, or are determined in our favor, we may be required to expend significant time and financial resources on the defense of such claims, and such claims also would divert management time and attention from our business operations. Furthermore, an adverse outcome of a dispute may require us to pay significant damages, which may be even greater if we are found to have willfully infringed upon a party’s intellectual property; cease exploiting copyrighted content that we have previously had the ability to exploit; cease using solutions that are alleged to infringe or misappropriate the intellectual property of others; expend additional development resources to redesign our solutions; enter into potentially unfavorable royalty or license agreements in order to obtain the right to use necessary technologies, content, or materials; indemnify our partners and other third parties; and/or take other actions that may have material effects on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Failure to protect our intellectual property could substantially harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

The success of our business depends on our ability to protect and enforce our patents, trade secrets, trademarks, copyrights, and all of our other intellectual property rights, including our intellectual property rights underlying our services. We attempt to protect our intellectual property under patent, trade secret, trademark, and copyright law through a combination of intellectual property registration, employee, third-party assignment and nondisclosure agreements, other contractual restrictions, technological measures, and other methods. These afford only limited protection, and we are still continuing to develop our processes for securing our intellectual property rights. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our product and brand features or obtain and use our trade secrets and other confidential information. Moreover, policing

41

Table of Contents

our intellectual property rights is difficult and time-consuming. We cannot assure you that we would have adequate resources to protect and police our intellectual property rights, and we cannot assure you that the steps we take to do so will always be effective.

We have filed, and may in the future file, patent applications on certain of our innovations. It is possible, however, that these innovations may not be patentable. In addition, given the cost, effort, risks, and downside of obtaining patent protection, including the requirement to ultimately disclose the invention to the public, we may choose not to seek patent protection for some innovations. Furthermore, our patent applications may not issue as granted patents, the scope of the protection gained may be insufficient, or an issued patent may be deemed invalid or unenforceable. Any of our present or future patents or other intellectual property rights may lapse or be invalidated, circumvented, challenged, or abandoned. Our intellectual property rights also may not provide competitive advantages to us. Our ability to assert our intellectual property rights against potential competitors or to settle current or future disputes could be limited by our relationships with third parties, and any of our pending or future patent applications may not have the scope of coverage originally sought. Our intellectual property rights may not be enforced in jurisdictions where competition may be intense or where legal protection may be weak. We could lose both the ability to assert our intellectual property rights against, or to license our technology to, others and the ability to collect royalties or other payments.

We currently own the www.loop.tv internet domain name and various other related domain names. Internet regulatory bodies generally regulate domain names. If we lose the ability to use a domain name in a particular country, we may be forced either to incur significant additional expenses to market our services within that country or, in extreme cases, to elect not to offer our services in that country. Either result could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. The regulation of domain names in the United States and in foreign countries is subject to change. Regulatory bodies could establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars, or modify the requirements for holding domain names. As a result, we may not be able to acquire or maintain the domain names that utilize our brand names in the United States or other countries in which we may conduct business in the future.

Litigation or proceedings before governmental authorities and administrative bodies may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our patent rights, trademarks, trade secrets, and domain names and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Our efforts to enforce or protect our proprietary rights may be ineffective and could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management time, each of which could substantially harm our operating results. Additionally, changes in law may be implemented, or changes in the interpretation of such laws may occur, that may affect our ability to protect and enforce our patents and other intellectual property.

Risks Related to Owning Our Common Stock and this Offering

There is a limited public market for our securities.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Pink Open Market and there has been a limited public market for our common stock. The daily trading volume of our common stock has been limited. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in us following this offering and our listing on the NYSE American will lead to the development of an active trading market or how liquid that trading market might become. The lack of an active trading market may reduce the value of shares of our common stock and impair the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares at the time or price at which they wish to sell them. An inactive trading market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling our common stock and may impair our ability to acquire or invest in other companies, products, or technologies by using our common stock as consideration.

Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American could result in a delisting of our common stock.

We have been authorized to list our common stock on the NYSE American under the symbol “LPTV”, subject to meeting all applicable listing standards upon completion of the offering. If accepted for listing on the NYSE American, we are required to meet certain listing requirements to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NYSE American. If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American, such as minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including those regarding minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance requirements, the NYSE American may take steps to delist our common stock, which could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to raise additional funds as well as the price and liquidity of our common stock. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a notice of or ultimate delisting, we would expect to take actions to restore our compliance with the NYSE American’s listing

42

Table of Contents

requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to remain listed or become listed again.

The trading price of our common stock has been and will likely continue to be volatile.

The trading price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate or decline significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for small media companies, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the overall market and in the market price of a company’s securities. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in very substantial costs, divert our management’s attention and resources and harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Because of their significant ownership of our common stock, our founders and other large investors have substantial control over our business, and their interests may differ from our interests or those of our other stockholders.

As of August 31, 2022, our two co-founders (Jon Niermann and Liam McCallum) and a member of our Board of Directors (Bruce Cassidy) beneficially owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, common stock representing 34.2% of the combined voting power of all our outstanding voting securities. Assuming the closing of this offering and taking into account the conversion of the 2022 Notes and 2023 Notes into common stock, as well as the automatic cashless exercise of the Automatic Warrants, it is expected that such individuals collectively will own an aggregate of 32.1% of the combined voting power of all our outstanding voting securities (or 31.9% if the underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional shares in full), based on the sale of our common stock at an assumed public offering price in this offering of $5.00 (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus). A stockholder affiliated with one of our directors has indicated an interest in purchasing up to an aggregate of approximately $2.0 million of shares of our common stock in this offering at the public offering price. To the extent this investor is allocated and purchases shares in this offering, such purchase would increase the percentage ownership and control that our executive officers, directors and principal stockholders who currently beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock would have after this offering. As a result of their ownership or control of our voting securities, if our founders and/or significant stockholders act together, they will have significant control over the outcome of substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors. This may delay or prevent an acquisition or cause the trading price of our common stock to decline. Our

43

Table of Contents

founders may have interests different from yours. Therefore, the concentration of voting power among our founders may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public markets by our co-founders or other stockholders, or the perception that such sales might occur, could reduce the price that our common stock might otherwise attain.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market by our founders, affiliates, or non-affiliates, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, and may make it more difficult for you to sell your common stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate. We are unable to predict the effect that such sales may have on the prevailing price of our common stock.

We, our directors and our executive officers, and stockholders who own more than 5% of our common stock, have entered into or will enter into lock-up agreements with the underwriter of this offering pursuant to which they and we have agreed, or will agree, that, subject to certain exceptions, we will not issue, and they will not sell or transfer or hedge any shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock for a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus. See the section titled “Underwriting” for more information. Sales of a substantial number of such shares upon expiration of, or the perception that such sales may occur, or early release of the securities subject to, the lock-up agreements, could cause our stock price to fall or make it more difficult for you to sell your common stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate. A decline in the price of our common stock might impede our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional common stock or other equity securities.

If securities or industry analysts publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business or cease publishing research about our business, our share price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about our Company, if any do so in the future. If one or more of the analysts who may cover us in the future downgrade our common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our Company, our common stock price would likely decline. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of our Company, the trading price of our shares would likely be negatively impacted. Further, if one or more of these analysts, once they cover us, cease coverage of our Company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common stock could decrease, which might cause our common stock price and trading volume to decline.

The requirements of being a public company with its common stock listed on the NYSE American may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Compliance with these rules and regulations incurs substantial legal and financial compliance costs, makes some activities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly, and places increased demand on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual and current reports with respect to our business and operating results. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. To maintain disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting that meet this standard, significant resources and management oversight are required. As a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could harm our business and operating results.

In addition, in connection with this offering, our common stock will be listed on the NYSE American, and thus we will be subject to various continued listing standards, which will require our ongoing compliance and attention, as well as various corporate governance and other rules, which will impact the way we raise capital, govern ourselves and otherwise run our business. Failing to comply with any NYSE American rules could result in the delisting of our common stock from the NYSE American, which could have a material impact on the price of our common stock.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by the investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The

price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering. If any of the above should occur, our stockholders, including investors who purchase shares of common stock in this offering, will experience additional dilution, and any such issuances may result in downward pressure on the price of our common stock.

We do not expect to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our share capital. The continued operation of our business will require substantial cash, and we currently intend to retain any future earnings for working capital and general corporate purposes. Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to holders of our common stock at any time in the foreseeable future. Any determination to pay future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, indebtedness, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our Board of Directors deems relevant. There is no guarantee that your shares of common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which you purchased your shares of common stock, and you may lose the entire amount of your investment.

Exercise of warrants, and issuance of incentive stock grants may have a dilutive effect on our stock, and negatively impact the price of our common stock.

As of August 31, 2022, we had 6,273,007 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants outstanding at a weighted average exercise price of $5.04 per share. With respect to such warrants outstanding, 1,950,236 shares issuable under the Automatic Warrants are expected to convert into 1,144,215 shares simultaneously with the closing of this offering (based on an assumed public offering price in this offering of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus)). As of August 31, 2022, an aggregate of 6,337,101 shares were issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options under all of our equity incentive plans, at a weighted average exercise price of $3.40 per share. We are able to grant stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, bonus stocks, and performance awards under the Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. As of September 18, 2022, an additional 4,200,329 shares were available for issuance under the Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan; excluding the retention awards to be granted on the first day of trading after the pricing of this offering under the Amended and Restated 2020 Equity Incentive Plan in the aggregate amount of 1,780,000 shares issuable upon exercise of options, with an assumed exercise price of $5.00 per share, and 890,000 RSUs, having an aggregate value of $8.9 million, based on the assumed public offering price in this offering of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus).

To the extent that any of the outstanding warrants and options described above are exercised, dilution to the interests of our stockholders may occur. For the life of such warrants and options, the holders will have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the price of the common stock with a resulting dilution in the interest of the other holders of common stock. The existence of such warrants and options may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the terms on which we can obtain additional financing, and the holders of such warrants and options can be expected to exercise them at a time when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain additional capital by an offering of our unissued capital stock on terms more favorable to us than those provided by such warrants and options.

Our management might apply the net proceeds from this offering in ways with which you do not agree and in ways that may impair the value of your investment.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for marketing, new customer development, working capital and other general corporate purposes. Our management has broad discretion as to the use of these proceeds and you will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of these proceeds. We might apply these proceeds in ways with which you do not agree, or in ways that do not yield a favorable return. If our management applies these proceeds in a manner that does not yield a significant return, if any, on our investment of these net proceeds, it could compromise our ability to pursue our growth strategy and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

The conversion of the 2022 Notes and 2023 Notes, and automatic exercise of certain warrants, upon the closing of this offering will result in substantial dilution to holders of our common stock.

As of August 31, 2022, there were 51,179,865 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Upon the closing of this offering, (i) all of the 2022 Notes will convert into an aggregate of 783,140 shares, based on the outstanding principal and interest of $3,132,565 as of August 31, 2022, and an assumed conversion price of $4.00 per share (which is 80% of $5.00 (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus)), (ii) all of the 2023 Notes will convert into an aggregate of 1,189,031 shares, based on the outstanding principal and interest of $2,140,257 as of August 31, 2022, and the conversion price of $1.80 per share, and (iii) the Automatic Warrants, exercisable for an aggregate of 1,950,236 shares of common stock as of August 31, 2022, having a weighted average exercise price of $2.07, unless previously exercised for cash, will be automatically exercised on a cashless/net basis pursuant to the terms thereof into an aggregate of 1,144,215 shares of common stock, based on an assumed public offering price in this offering of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and assuming none of the Automatic Warrants are exercised prior to the closing of this offering (the events described in the foregoing (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Conversions”). The Conversions will result in substantial dilution to other holders of our common stock and other securities. See the section entitled “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase common stock in this offering.

If you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in your investment. You will experience further dilution if we issue additional equity or equity-linked securities in the future.

Because the price per share of our common stock being offered is substantially higher than the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution with respect to the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. Based on an assumed public offering price of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), and our pro forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2022 (taking into account the Conversions), if you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $4.84 per share with respect to the as adjusted net tangible book value of the common stock. See the section entitled “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase common stock in this offering.

Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates”, “plans” and words of similar import. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, potential target businesses, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore that you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements of historical fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance. You should understand that many important factors, in addition to those discussed in this prospectus, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include changes in local, regional, national, or global political, economic, business, competitive, market (supply and demand) and regulatory conditions and the following:

Table of Contents

Other sections of this prospectus describe additional risk factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties, nor are we able to assess the impact of all of these risk factors on our business or the extent to which any risk factor, or combination of risk factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. These risks and others described under the section “Risk Factors” above are not exhaustive.

Given these uncertainties, readers of this registration statement on Form S-1 are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $10.2 million from this offering (or approximately $11.9 million if the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full), based on an assumed public offering price of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering for marketing, new customer development, payment of offering-related bonuses (in the aggregate amount of approximately $1,100,000) to certain of our officers, working capital and other general corporate purposes.

Our expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business condition. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot currently allocate specific percentages of the net proceeds that we may use for the purposes specified above, and we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of this offering, or the amounts that we will actually spend on the uses set forth above. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including our sales and marketing efforts, demand for our services, our operating costs and the other factors described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus. Accordingly, our management will have flexibility in applying the net proceeds from this offering. An investor will not have the opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use the proceeds.

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, by approximately $2.2 million, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same. We may also increase or decrease the number of shares we are offering. An increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 in the number of shares we are offering would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, by approximately $4.6 million, assuming the public offering price stays the same. We do not expect that a change in the offering price or the number of shares by these amounts would have a material effect on our intended uses of the net proceeds from this offering, although it may impact the amount of time prior to which we may need to seek additional capital.

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

We have been authorized to list our common stock on the NYSE American under the symbol “LPTV”, subject to meeting all applicable listing standards upon completion of the offering.

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) would increase (decrease) the amount of cash, additional paid-in capital, total stockholders’ equity (deficit) and total capitalization on a pro forma as adjusted basis by approximately $2.2 million, assuming the number of shares, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, each increase (decrease) of 1,000,000 shares offered by us would increase (decrease) cash, total stockholders’ equity (deficit) and total capitalization on a pro forma as adjusted basis by approximately $4.6 million, assuming the assumed public offering price of $5.00 per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) remains the same, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
