SIMON WORLDWIDE, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Simon
Worldwide, Inc. (the Company or Simon) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2010.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of those considered necessary for fair
presentation of the Companys financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the
dates and for the periods presented. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform with current period presentation.
Prior to August 2001, the Company was a multi-national, full service promotional marketing company.
In August 2001, McDonalds Corporation (McDonalds), the Companys principal customer,
terminated its 25-year relationship with the Company as a result of the embezzlement by a former
Company employee of winning game pieces from McDonalds promotional games administered by the
Company. Other customers also terminated their relationships with the Company, resulting in the
Company no longer having a business. By April 2002, the Company had effectively eliminated a
majority of its ongoing promotions business operations and was in the process of disposing of its
assets and settling its liabilities related to the promotions business and defending and pursuing
litigation with respect thereto. As a result of these efforts, the Company has been able to
resolve a significant number of outstanding liabilities that existed in August 2001 or arose
subsequent to that date.
The operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2011-05,
Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.
ASU
No. 2011-05 provides an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the
components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single
continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In
both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net
income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive
income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity
is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other
comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of
comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to
present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The
statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and
include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income,
along with a total for comprehensive income.
Regardless of whether an entity chooses to present comprehensive income in a single continuous
statement or in two separate but consecutive statements, the entity is required to present on the
face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from
other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and
the components of other comprehensive income are presented.
ASU No. 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning
after December 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively. The Company does not expect its
adoption will have a material effect on the Companys consolidated statements of financial position
or results of operations.

2. Absence of Operating Business
As a result of the loss of its customers, the Company no longer has any operating business. Since
August 2001, the Company has concentrated its efforts on reducing its costs and settling numerous
claims, contractual obligations, and pending litigation. By April 2002, the Company had
effectively eliminated a majority of its ongoing promotions business operations and was in the
process of disposing of its assets and settling its liabilities related to the promotions business
and defending and pursuing litigation with respect thereto. In essence, the Company discontinued
its promotions business and changed the nature of its operation to focus on its pending litigation
and winding down its contracted obligations. As a result of these efforts, the Company has been
able to resolve a significant number of outstanding liabilities that existed in August 2001 or
arose subsequent to that date. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had reduced its workforce to
4 employees from 136 employees as of December 31, 2001.
With no revenues from operations, the Company closely monitors and controls its expenditures within
a reasonably predictable range. Cash used by continuing operating activities was $2.3 million and
$2 million in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company continues to
incur losses in 2011 for the general and administrative expenses incurred to manage the affairs of
the Company. By utilizing cash available at September 30, 2011 to maintain its scaled back
operations, management believes it has sufficient capital resources and liquidity to operate the
Company for at least one year.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of
approximately $70.2 million and state NOLs of approximately $46.7 million that may, subject to
applicable tax rules, be used to reduce certain income tax obligations in the future. Because of
its current lack of operations, the Company has established a valuation allowance for the entire
amount of federal and state NOLs as it is unlikely that the Company can realize these deferred tax
benefits in the future.
3. Discontinued Operations
The discontinued activities of the Company have been classified as discontinued operations in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2011, and December
31, 2010, the Company had no liabilities within its discontinued operations.
In October 2010, the Company settled the remaining liability in its discontinued operations which
was a post-employment obligation dating back to the Companys decision to discontinue its marketing
operations. The Company used cash from continuing operations of $0.6 million to satisfy this
obligation. The Company had planned to use the cash surrender value (CSV) associated with the
post-employment obligation to settle the liability. The terms of the settlement agreement entitle
the Company to the CSV in future periods.
The Company had a loss from discontinued operations totaling $66,000 and $93,000 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2010.
4. Long-term Investments
YUCAIPA AEC ASSOCIATES
At September 30, 2011, the Company held an investment in Yucaipa AEC, a limited liability company
that is controlled by The Yucaipa Companies. The Company owns 18.23% of and has significant
influence over Yucaipa AEC and, accordingly, accounts for its investment under the equity method.
The carrying value of the Companys investment in Yucaipa AEC totals approximately $5,000 and
$7,000 at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively, and is included in the
investments line item in the consolidated balance sheets.
OTHER INVESTMENTS
The Company holds an investment in available-for-sale equity securities with a fair value of
approximately $21,000 and $26,000 at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively, which
is included in the other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The cost basis in
our available-for-sale securities was approximately $19,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31,
2010. Total unrealized gain in accumulated other comprehensive income
8
approximated $2,000 at
September 30, 2011. This investment is recorded at fair value using quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1).
At December 31, 2010, the Company held a cost method investment in the equity securities of a
technology related company, which is privately-held, totaling $59,000. During June 2011, the
Company redeemed its entire interest in this investment and, accordingly, the balance of such
investment at September 30, 2011 is $0.
5. Earnings Per Share
The Company calculates its earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260-10, Earnings Per Share.
There were 50,611,879 weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30,
2011 and 2010, and 50,611,879 and 52,136,961 weighted average shares outstanding for the nine
months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, there were 55,000 and 60,000
weighted average shares related to stock options exercisable for the three months ended September
30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 56,630 and 61,648 weighted average shares related to stock
options exercisable for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, that were
not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been
antidilutive as the Company has a net loss for each period presented.
On April 26, 2010, the Company purchased 3,589,201 shares of its outstanding common stock from
Everest Special Situations Fund L.P., formerly the Companys second largest shareholder, for
$1,256,220. The shares are held by the Company as treasury stock resulting in 50,611,879 shares
outstanding at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

6. Income Taxes
The Company had a current state benefit for income taxes of $0 and $1,000 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company had a provision for income taxes of
$4,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
The Company periodically evaluates the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the
realizability of its deferred tax assets. The Company, however, has considered results of
operations and concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be
realizable. As a result, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance of $35.1 million
and $34.6 million is required at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, respectively. The
increase in valuation allowance is primarily due to an increase in deferred tax assets arising from
current years net operating losses. The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise to
deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010, were as follows (in
thousands):

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had federal and state NOLs of approximately $70.2 million and
$46.7 million, respectively. The federal NOLs will begin to expire in 2022 through 2031 and the
state NOLs begin to expire in 2012 through 2031. In connection with the September, 18, 2008,
recapitalization of the Company, the Company completed a review of any potential limitation on the
use of its NOLs under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Because of our current lack of
operations, we have established a valuation allowance for the entire amount of federal and state
NOLs as it is unlikely that we can realize these deferred tax benefits in the future. Based on
such review, the Company does not believe Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code will adversely
impact its ability to use its current net operating losses.

income tax rate for continuing operations:

7. Subsequent Events
The Company has completed an evaluation of all subsequent events through the issuance date of these
financial statements, and concluded there were no subsequent events that required recognition or
disclosure.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same periods in the
previous year. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company and related Notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks
From time to time, the Company may provide forward-looking information such as forecasts of
expected future performance or statements about the Companys plans and objectives, including
certain information provided below. These forward-looking statements are based largely on the
Companys expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, certain of which are
beyond the Companys control. The Company wishes to caution readers that actual results may differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the
Company including, without limitation, as a result of factors described in Item 1A. Risk Factors
included in the Companys December 31, 2010, Form 10-K for Purposes of the Safe Harbor Provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
General
Prior to August 2001, the Company was a multi-national, full service promotional marketing company.
In August 2001, McDonalds Corporation (McDonalds), the Companys principal customer,
terminated its 25-year relationship with the Company as a result of the embezzlement by a former
Company employee of winning game pieces from McDonalds promotional games administered by the
Company. Other customers also terminated their relationships with the Company.
As a result of the loss of its customers, the Company no longer has any operating business. Since
August 2001, the Company has concentrated its efforts on reducing its costs and settling numerous
claims, contractual obligations, and pending litigation. By April 2002, the Company had
effectively eliminated a majority of its ongoing promotions business operations and was in the
process of disposing of its assets and settling its liabilities related to the promotions business
and defending and pursuing litigation with respect thereto. In essence, the Company discontinued
its promotions business and changed the nature of its operation to focus on its pending litigation
and winding down its contracted obligations. As a result of these efforts, the Company has been
able to resolve a significant number of outstanding liabilities that existed in August 2001 or
arose subsequent to that date. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had reduced its workforce to
4 employees from 136 employees as of December 31, 2001. The Company is currently managed by the
Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, Greg Mays, and an acting general counsel.
Outlook
The lack of any operating revenue has had and will continue to have a substantial adverse impact on
the Companys cash position. The Company incurred losses within its continuing operations in 2010
and continues to incur losses in 2011 for the general and administrative expenses incurred to
manage the affairs of the Company. Inasmuch as the Company no longer generates operating income,
the source of current and future working capital is expected to be cash on hand and proceeds from
the sale of certain long-term investments. Management believes it has sufficient capital resources
and liquidity to operate the Company for at least one year.
The Board of Directors continues to consider various alternative courses of action for the Company,
including possibly acquiring or combining with one or more operating businesses. The Board of
Directors has reviewed and analyzed a number of proposed transactions and will continue to do so
until it can determine a course of action going forward to best benefit all shareholders. The
Company cannot predict when the Board of Directors will have developed a proposed course of action
or whether any such course of action will be successful. Considering our current cash position of
$9.5 million at September 30, 2011 and our average spending to support continuing operations,
management believes it has sufficient capital resources and liquidity to operate the Company for at
least one year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended September 30, 2011, Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
The Company generated no sales or gross profits in continuing operations during the three months
ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
General and administrative expenses totaled $.5 million during the three months ended September 30,
2011, compared to $.4 million during the same period of the prior year. The increase is primarily
due to a reduction in value of a cash surrender value related asset associated with a
post-employment obligation of a former employee.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011, Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
The Company generated no sales or gross profits during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and
2010.
General and administrative expenses totaled $1.5 million during the nine months ended September 30,
2011, and $1.5 million during the same period of the prior year. Although there was a decrease of
$.1 million in legal fees from the prior period, this was offset by an increase in general and
administrative expenses due to a reduction in value of a cash surrender value related asset
associated with a post-employment obligation of a former employee.
RESULTS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended September 30, 2011, Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
The Company had no discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30, 2011 but did
incur a loss of $66,000 from discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30,
2010.
The Company generated no sales or gross profits in discontinued operations during the three months
ended September 30, 2010.
General and administrative expenses totaled $66,000 during the three months ended September 30,
2010, which related to charges for a post-employment obligation.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011, Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
The Company had no discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 but did

General and administrative expenses totaled $93,000 during the nine months ended September 30,
2010, which related to charges for a post-employment obligation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital was $9.3 million and $10.6 million at September 30, 2011, and December 31, 2010,
respectively.
Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, totaled $1.2
million primarily due to a loss from continuing operations of $1.4 million partially offset by a
net change in working capital items. Net cash used in operating activities from continuing
operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, totaled $1.3 million primarily due to a
loss from continuing operations of $1.5 million partially offset by a net change in working capital
items.
Net cash received from investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011,
totaled $73,000 which was due to the sale of one of the Companys equity investments. There were
no investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
There were no financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. There were
cash outflows from financing activities of $1.3 million during the nine months ended September 30,
2010, as the Company purchased 3,589,201
12
shares of its outstanding common stock from Everest Special Situations Fund L.P., formerly the
Companys second largest shareholder, for $1,256,220, on April 26, 2010. The shares are held by
the Company as treasury stock.
The Company has a letter of credit totaling approximately $36,000 at September 30, 2011, which
supports the Companys periodic payroll obligations and is considered restricted.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The disclosure required by this Item is not material to the Company because the Company does not
currently have any exposure to market rate sensitive instruments, as defined in this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2011, the Company evaluated the effectiveness and design and operation of its
disclosure controls and procedures. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are the
controls and other procedures that the Company designed to ensure that it records, processes,
summarizes, and reports in a timely manner the information that it must disclose in reports that
the Company files with or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Greg Mays, the
principal executive and principal financial officer of the Company, reviewed and participated in
this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive and principal financial officer
of the Company concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
