PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

Public Media Works, Inc. (the “Company”) is engaged in the development, production, marketing and distribution of film, music and television entertainment media. The Company has several film and television projects which are currently in various stages of development. The Company also seeks out raw content in the form of film concepts, trailers, scripts, treatments, music and book proposals to acquire or license for further development and distribution.

EntertainmentXpress, Inc. Acquisition

The Company completed its acquisition of EntertainmentXpress, Inc., a California corporation (“EntertainmentXpress”) on May 4, 2010. As a result of the acquisition, the Company owns 100% of the outstanding shares of EntertainmentXpress, which will operate as a subsidiary of the Company. EntertainmentXpress plans to roll out a network of conveniently located, self-service, kiosks which deliver DVD movies and other content to consumers. The kiosks will provide consumers the ability to rent and purchase DVD movies, video games and other products. The Company plans to locate the kiosks in quick-serve food locations, grocery stores and other high-traffic, public venues.

The acquisition of EntertainmentXpress occurred after the Company’s year ended February 28, 2010. This report on Form 10-K includes the financial results and business of the Company through February 28, 2010; and the financial results and business of EntertainmentXpress from its inception in December 2009 through February 28, 2010.

In order to maintain clarity in this report, references to the business of the Company prior to May 4, 2010 will be indicated as “PMW”; references to the business of the Company’s subsidiary EntertainmentXpress will be indicated as “EntertainmentXpress”; and references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the combined businesses of PMW and EntertainmentXpress after May 4, 2010.

Table of Contents

PMW does not currently have any funding for any of the projects described above, and there can be no assurances that PMW will secure the funding necessary to develop the projects any further or secure a TV network order for any of the television projects. PMW has not generated any significant revenues from these projects as of the date of this report, and there can be no assurances PMW will ever generate any revenues from these projects.

PMW also has an ownership interest in the following film projects which are completed and in distribution:

PMW Ownership Interest in Film Projects – Completed and In Distribution

“Car Pool Guy”

“Donna on Demand”

“Dead Air”

Company Interest in Limited Liability Companies For Projects

On August 26, 2008, PMW executed a Purchase Agreement with Corbin Bernsen, and an entity owned by him, providing for the sale of certain PMW limited liability company interests and projects. The agreement provided for the sale of PMW’s membership interests in DOD, LLC and Dead Air, LLC and for PMW to resign as the manager of each; PMW’s sale of one-half of its 40% interest in the production of the film “Car Pool Guy”; and PMW’s sale of one-half interest in the script for the film “3 Day Test”. In consideration for these assets, Mr. Bernsen agreed to forgive all of the PMW debt to him (in the approximate amount of $55,000) and agreed to pay PMW future royalty payments from the projects. PMW received the right to receive royalty payments in the amount of 12.5% of any future distributions from DOD, LLC and 10% of any future distributions from Dead Air, LLC. DOD, LLC owns and develops the film “Donna On Demand” and Dead Air, LLC owns and develops the film “Dead Air”.

Company Intellectual Property

PMW owns and maintains the Internet domain names www.publicmediaworks.com, and www.publicmusicworks.com. PMW has also registered numerous Internet domain names for specific projects. PMW owns a service mark for “PublicFilmWorks.” PMW may also protect various other words, names, symbols, and devices that are used with goods produced by PMW to distinguish them from those produced by others through the use of trademarks, and will identify and distinguish the source of several of its services through the use of service marks. These would include “Public Media Works” and its logo. PMW has not filed applications to protect any other trade or service marks, and there can be no assurances PMW will receive such trade or service mark protection.

As a matter of practice, PMW copyrights all screenplays, project treatments, and other original material that it produces. PMW intends to use copyrights issued and maintained by the Copyright Office of the Library of Congress as the primary form of protection for all original works of authorship, including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works, both published and unpublished. The 1976 Copyright Act allows PMW the exclusive right to reproduce the copyrighted work, to prepare derivative works, to distribute the copyrighted work, to perform the copyrighted work, and to display the copyrighted work publicly. PMW also intends to register all applicable screenplays and scripts with the Writers Guild of America. PMW has registered the following screenplays and scripts with the Writers Guild of America.

Table of Contents

All treatments for its films and shows are developed internally, and are the property of PMW. All agreements with independent and freelance writers will require that all content, treatments, ideology, screenplays, scripts and full use become and remain the sole and exclusive property of PMW for all time and in all markets. However, there can be no assurance that PMW can protect its intellectual property, or that PMW will be able to receive all benefits from its intellectual property.

Market and Competition

According to Box Office Mojo, the total 2009 United States theatrical box office revenues were approximately $10.5 billion, and the following twelve major studios comprised approximately 96% of that market share: Warner Bros. (19.9%); Paramount (13.9%); Sony/Columbia (13.7%); 20th Century Fox (13.2%); Buena Vista (11.6%); Universal (8.2%); Summit Entertainment (4.6%); Lionsgate (3.8%); Fox Searchlight (2.4%); Weinstein Company (1.9%); Focus Features (1.5%) and Overture Films (1.5%). PMW competes with these major studios, as well as numerous other independent studios, for market share. According to Nielsen Media Research, there are over 114 million television households in the United States for the 2009-2010 broadcast season. There are a number of companies producing and distributing television shows, including the national networks, hundreds of cable channels, and numerous private production companies. PMW also competes with these companies.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, PMW generated only $50,000 in revenues. PMW’s competitors have greater resources, market presence and name recognition than PMW. Moreover, although PMW has several registered scripts, PMW has not yet produced a show which has been taken into distribution. Consequently, PMW has not yet established a position in the television industry, and faces intense competition upon entry.

Government Regulation and Self-Regulating Associations

PMW does not require any government approval for the operation of its business. PMW’s operations are subject to various federal, state and local requirements which affect businesses generally, such as taxes, postal regulations, labor laws, and environmental and zoning regulations and ordinances. PMW’s costs for compliance with environmental laws are negligible.

PMW’s films are subject to rating classifications from the Motion Picture Association of America (or MPAA), which is a nongovernmental, self-regulating association. PMW expects to produce movies in a manner that will ultimately obtain the expected rating. However, it is difficult to predict the rating classification that the MPAA will ultimately assign to the movie. If the expected rating were not obtained, distribution support (including marketing and advertising) may be reduced, resulting in fewer distribution venues and smaller viewing audience. Further, censors in foreign jurisdictions may find elements of a movie objectionable.

Employees

As of the date of this report, the Company employs 3 individuals. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be good, and does not have any employment agreements.

EntertainmentXpress Business Description

EntertainmentXpress, Inc., formerly Digital Flow Media, Inc., was formed in December 2009 as a California corporation. In 2010, the Company acquired EntertainmentXpress to create an entertainment and content distribution company tied into both the film and video games industries.

Our core business model focuses on responding to the demand of film and video game producers for access to consumers in real-time by offering self-service digital media rentals through kiosks where consumers can rent or purchase movies, video games and other digital media. Our goal is to create superior kiosk and digital network technologies.

We are planning to install EntertainmentXpress digital media kiosks at high traffic consumer retail establishments, including food service retailers, grocery stores and other high-traffic public venues. Our digital media kiosks supply the functionality of a traditional video rental store, yet typically occupy an area of less than ten square feet. Consumers use a touch screen to select their DVD, video game or other digital media, swipe a valid credit or debit card, and receive their selection(s). The process is designed to be fast, efficient and fully automated with no membership fees. Our business plan is modeled after the success of other publicly-traded kiosk rental companies, such as Coinstar’s (NasdaqGS: CSTR) RedBox DVD rental business, in this newly emerging industry.

Table of Contents

We plan to generate revenue primarily through fees charged to rent or purchase a DVD, video game or other digital media, and pay retailers a percentage of our revenue. We will charge flat rental fees per night and if the consumer chooses to keep the rental(s) for additional nights, the consumer will be charged for each additional night. The kiosks are equipped to accept payment by credit card, which allows us to charge for additional nights, or the failure to return a DVD or video game.

We also plan to sell advertising space on our rental services kiosks and offer retail partner branded kiosks. Our kiosks can be equipped with a flatscreen display that can display advertising and be tailored to specific venue promotions. We also are pioneering the promotion of the brand of our retailers by incorporating their logos and colors on our kiosks.

Growth Strategy

According to The NPD Group, a leading market research company, DVD movie and video game rental kiosks are experiencing more growth than either subscription services or store rentals and video rental kiosks will make up nearly 30 percent of video rentals in the U.S. in 2010. Our strategy to capitalize on the explosion of demand for rental kiosks includes these key elements.

Controlling Valuable Real Estate

 

   

Industry leading retail partner incentive programs such as revenue share, co-branding, in store promotions, and high yield strategic financing.

 

   

Co-marketing programs tailored to specific retail partners designed to increase sales lift.

Preferred Access to Content

 

   

Advertising new film and video game releases on behalf of content partners over the kiosk integrated ad network in order to gain early and preferential access to new releases thereby maximizing key metrics such as Unit Yield.

Proprietary Kiosk Designs

 

   

Proprietary kiosk designs which incorporate digital downloads, multiple plasma screen stations, an integrated digital ad network and ADA compliant access.

 

   

Small foot print kiosk designs which optimize revenue per square foot.

Publicly Traded Company

 

   

Public company and lease financing strategies to access capital as dictated by the growth curve.

 

   

High consumer visibility through the public company profile.

Manufacturing

We have entered into a non binding letter of intent to secure our kiosks from Videosystem Inc. (Videosystem), in Schio, Italy, for exclusive worldwide distribution of a custom manufactured kiosk. Videosystem is one of the largest DVD kiosk manufacturing specialists in the world. Videosystem provides a base kiosk that is pre-engineered to be easily adapted to future generations of technology as well customizable for unique applications. Additionally, the kiosk is fully compliant with the Americans with Disability Act. We believe that this outsourced approach allows us to reduce operating expenses and capitalize on the Videosystem’s experience and economies of scale.

Media Licenses

We obtain inventory of media, including DVDs, from certain wholesale distributors and third-party retailers. As our business develops, we intend to enter into license agreements with studios for video game and DVD media. However we do not have any license agreements in effect at this time.

Table of Contents

Customers

We have entered into initial agreements with certain food service retailers to place kiosks. These initial agreements provide for us to provide kiosks for placement in certain of their restaurants on a trial basis. We have entered into an agreement Aurora Huts LLC, a Pizza Hut franchisee which operates 155 Pizza Hut locations. Additionally, we have entered into five separate agreements with certain Popeye’s restaurant franchisees, which cumulatively operate 74 of the highest volume Popeye’s stores in the greater Houston Area, including: Salil Keswani, Chairman of Popeye’s Development Committee and a board member of Popeye’s International Franchise Association; Broford Inc. owned by Harry Stafford, outgoing Chairman of Popeye’s International Franchise Association (PIFA), current Board member of the association, and the head of the Marketing Committee; Cardinal Southwest, owned by Charles Boyd and Alvin Rucker, committee members on PIFA’s Tech and R&D committees; Houston Fast Food, owned by Miller and Family; GRM Operations, owned by Greg Hobbs, DMA president and PIFA committee member; and Continental Superior Management, owned by Ali Lakhany.

Competition

We face competition from a variety of video distribution channels, not only from other independent digital media rental service providers, but also from other providers of movie and video game content, from traditional stores, such as Blockbuster and Hollywood Video, to other self-service kiosks, such as RedBox, to online or postal providers, such as Netflix, to other movie distribution rental channels, such as pay-per-view, video-on-demand, online streaming, premium television, basic cable, and network and syndicated television. Each of these competitors is more experienced in the business and has or have more resources than we have.

Our chief competitors in the DVD kiosk-providers field are both public companies: RedBox, owned by Coinstar, and NCR. RedBox had reported massive growth in adoption and sales and has expressed the opinion that the kiosk DVD business is still in its nascent state. RedBox’s revenues for 2009 were $774 million, which represents a doubling of revenue from 2008. More than 22,000 RedBox kiosks are in place which represents an increase of 75% from the prior year. In addition to rentals, RedBox consumers also purchased an estimated 120 million new DVDs in 2009 for about 13% of the estimated overall sales of DVDs nationwide.

We intend to distinguish ourselves from the competition by offering more digital product offerings in future phases (such as music), offering distribution partner-branded kiosks, implementing a fully integrated solution for in store advertising, and offering kiosks pre-designed to become media filling stations to a variety of digital storage devices. Additionally, our relationship with Public Media Works gives us unique access to certain entertainment industry contacts, which can result in additional media content, less expensive agreements and exclusive movie promotion opportunities.

Government Regulation

Our business will be subject to federal, state and local laws and government regulations, including laws relating to access to machines in public places, credit card and debit card transactions, consumer protection, consumer privacy and data protection. The application of existing laws or the enactment of new laws or regulations may materially impact the way we are required to conduct operations.

Employees

As of the date of this report, the EntertainmentXpress employs 9 individuals. EntertainmentXpress considers its relations with its employees to be good.

Incorporation and History

The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 3, 2000 under the name “Burnam Management, Inc.” (“Burnam”) and registered its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2000. From incorporation until August 30, 2003, Burnam did not have any operations or business plan and did not trade on any exchange or trading system. The original Public Media Works, Inc. (“PMW”) was a privately held company incorporated in the State of California on May 15, 2000. On August 29, 2003, Burnam entered into a

Table of Contents

Share Exchange Agreement to acquire PMW. At the time of the exchange, there were 5,000,000 shares of Burnam common stock issued and outstanding. Under the terms of the agreement, Burnam issued 20,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to all outstanding PMW security holders on a pro-rata basis, in exchange for which Burnam received 20,000,000 shares of PMW common stock, representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of PMW. The share exchange took effect on August 30, 2003. Upon the effective date of the merger, the Company changed its name from “Burnham Management, Inc.” to “Public Media Works, Inc.”

Publicly Available Information

The Company is required to file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). For further information with respect to the Company and its common stock, please review the Company’s filings, including exhibits and schedules thereto. The Company’s filings with the SEC are available to the public from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. You may also read and copy any materials the Company files with the SEC at the SEC’s public reference room at 100 F. Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the public reference rooms.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, the other information included herein and the information included in our other reports and filings with the SEC. Our business, financial condition, and the trading price of our common stock could be adversely affected by these and other risks.

PMW BUSINESS RISKS

Our business requires a substantial investment of capital. The production, acquisition and distribution of motion pictures (“films”) and television programs and the planned development of a web portal require a significant amount of capital. A significant amount of time may elapse between our expenditure of funds and the receipt of commercial revenues from our film or television programs or web portal. Although we intend to continue to reduce the risks of our production exposure through financial contributions from investors in limited liability financing vehicles, we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement these arrangements or that we will not be subject to substantial financial risks relating to the production, acquisition, completion and release of future film and television programs and the development of a web portal. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The costs of producing and marketing feature films have steadily increased and may further increase in the future, which may make it more difficult for our films to generate a profit or compete against other films. The costs of producing and marketing feature films have generally increased in recent years. These costs may continue to increase in the future, which may make it more difficult for our films to generate a profit or compete against other films. We are dependent on DVD sales, home video, television, international markets and new media for revenue, and the revenues from such sources may not be sufficient to offset an increase in the cost of film production. If we cannot successfully exploit these and other media, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Budget overruns may adversely affect our business. Our business model requires that we be efficient in the production of our film and television programs. Actual film and television production costs often exceed their budgets, sometimes significantly. The production, completion and distribution of films and television productions are subject to a number of uncertainties, including delays and increased expenditures due to creative differences among key cast members and other key creative personnel or other disruptions or events beyond our control. Risks such as death or disability of star performers, technical complications with special effects or other aspects of production, shortages of necessary equipment, damage to film negatives, master tapes and recordings or adverse weather conditions may cause cost overruns and delay or frustrate completion of a production. If a film or television production incurs substantial budget overruns, we may have to seek additional financing from outside sources to complete production. We cannot make assurances regarding the availability of such financing on terms acceptable to us, and the lack of such financing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we exceed our budgets in our projects, we may be unable to recoup our costs. If a film or television production incurs substantial budget overruns, we cannot assure you that we will recoup these costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Increased costs incurred with

Table of Contents

respect to a particular film may result in any such film being abandoned, not being ready for release at the intended time or ever or the postponement of release to a potentially less favorable time, all of which could have a significant negative effect on the overall financial success of such film. Budget overruns could also prevent a picture from being completed or released. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Licensed distributors’ failure to promote our programs may adversely affect our business. Licensed distributors’ decisions regarding the timing of release and promotional support of our films, television programs and related products are important in determining the success of these pictures, programs and products. We do not control the timing and manner in which our licensed distributors distribute our films or television programs. Any decision by those distributors not to distribute or promote one of our films, television programs or related products or to promote our competitors’ films, television programs or related products to a greater extent than they promote ours could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face additional risks due to our reliance on outsourced production studios for films and television shows we choose to produce ourselves. We intend to outsource certain aspects of the production requirements for our film and television projects. We do not intend to maintain a relationship with one particular studio or production group. Consequently, we may be subject to certain risks associated with outsourcing. Moreover, we may not receive competitive pricing from our production studios as we do not intend to form a relationship with one particular studio. Due to our dependency on outsourced production studios and the inherent difficulty in replacing outsourced production studios in an efficient or expeditious manner, the occurrence of any condition preventing or hindering the production or delivery of our films and shows by any one or more of our outsourcing production studios may require us to mitigate our actual or potential loss by switching outsourced production studios.

If our films and television shows are not commercially successful, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to fund our operations, and may be unable to continue as a going concern. Producing television shows and feature length films involves substantial risks, because they require that we spend significant funds based entirely on our preliminary evaluation of the screenplay’s commercial potential as a film. It is impossible to predict the success of any film or show before the production starts. The ability of a show or film to generate revenues will depend upon a variety of unpredictable factors, including:

 

 

public taste, which is always subject to change;

 

 

the quantity and popularity of other films and leisure activities available to the public at the time of our release;

 

 

the competition for exhibition at movie theatres, through video retailers, on cable television and through other forms of distribution; and

 

 

the fact that not all shows and films are distributed in all media forms or that chosen distribution channels may be ineffective.

For any of these reasons, the shows and films that we produce may be commercially unsuccessful, and the value of our equity interest in any or all of them may be reduced or eliminated entirely. We operate in a particularly unpredictable industry, and, if we are unable to produce projects which are commercially successful in this industry, we may not be able to recoup our expenses and/or generate revenues. In the event that we are unable to generate revenues, we may not be able to continue operating as a viable business.

Our success depends on the commercial success of films and television programs, which is unpredictable. Operating in the film and television industry involves a substantial degree of risk. Each film and television program is an individual artistic work, and inherently unpredictable audience reactions primarily determine commercial success. Generally, the popularity of our films or programs depends on many factors, including the critical acclaim they receive, the format of their initial release, for example, theatrical or direct-to-video, the actors and other key talent, their genre and their specific subject matter. The commercial success of our films or television programs also depends upon the quality and acceptance of films or programs that our competitors release into the marketplace at or near the same time, critical reviews, the availability of alternative forms of entertainment and leisure activities, general economic conditions and other tangible and intangible factors, many of which we do not control and all of which may change. We cannot predict the future effects of these factors with certainty, any of which factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The film industry is highly competitive and we are smaller and less diversified than many of our competitors. As an independent producer and distributor, we constantly compete with major U.S. and international studios as well as smaller independent producers. Most of the major U.S. studios are part of large diversified corporate groups with a variety of other operations, including television networks and cable channels, that can provide both the means of distributing their products and stable sources of earnings that may allow them better to offset fluctuations in the financial performance of their film and television operations. In addition, the major studios have more resources with which to compete for ideas, storylines and scripts created by third parties as well as for actors, directors and other personnel required for production. The resources of the major studios may also give them an advantage in acquiring other businesses or assets that we might also be interested in acquiring. Our inability to compete successfully could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Others may assert intellectual property infringement claims against us. One of the risks of the film production business is the possibility that others may claim that our productions and production techniques misappropriate or infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties with respect to their previously developed films, stories, characters, other entertainment or intellectual property. We are likely to receive in the future claims of infringement or misappropriation of other parties’ proprietary rights. Any such assertions or claims may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Irrespective of the validity or the successful assertion of such claims, we could incur significant costs and diversion of resources in defending against them, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we may seek to settle such claim by obtaining a license from the plaintiff covering the disputed intellectual property rights. We cannot provide any assurances, however, that under such circumstances a license, or any other form of settlement, would be available on reasonable terms or at all.

Our business involves risks of liability claims for media content, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. As a distributor of media content, we may face potential liability for defamation, invasion of privacy, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement (as discussed above) and other claims based on the nature and content of the materials distributed. These types of claims have been brought, sometimes successfully, against producers and distributors of media content. Any imposition of liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

ENTERTAINMENTXPRESS BUSINESS RISKS

Our business is dependent upon our ability to secure contracts with retailers and our inability to secure contracts or the termination of contracts with one or more of our significant retailers could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. The success of our business depends in large part on our ability to secure and maintain contractual relationships with retailers in high traffic locations such as fast casual restaurants and grocery stores. We are only beginning to secure concession rights with retailers. If these retailers cancel our concession rights, or if we are unsuccessful in securing concession rights with additional retailers our business, financial condition and results of operations will suffer.

We will need to secure substantial capital in order to finance the placement of kiosks with retailers. Our business model requires us to purchase the kiosk from our vendor before we place it with the retailer. If we are successful in securing retail locations we will need substantial additional capital to procure additional digital media kiosks.

We depend upon third-party manufacturers, suppliers and service providers for key components and substantial support for our rental services machines and equipment. We depend on outside parties to manufacture our digital media kiosks. We have installed initial trial machines and intend to continue to expand our installed base of machines and equipment. Such expansion may be limited by the manufacturing capacity of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers. Third-party manufacturers may not be able to meet our manufacturing needs in a satisfactory and timely manner. If there is an unanticipated increase in demand for digital media kiosks, we may be unable to meet such demand due to manufacturing constraints. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities of components or to locate alternative sources of supply on a timely basis, we may experience delays in installing or maintaining digital media kiosks, any of which could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There are many risks related to our rental services business that may negatively impact our business. The home video and gaming industry is highly competitive with many factors affecting our ability to profitably manage our rental services business. We plan to develop a nationwide infrastructure of digital media kiosks. The home video and game distribution market is rapidly evolving as new technologies and distribution channels are being developed to

compete for market share. Competitive distribution channels include traditional specialty retailers such as Blockbuster, mail services such as NetFlix, pay-per-view services through cable companies, and Internet based media such as YouTube. There is no assurance that the digital media kiosk channel will maintain or achieve additional market share over the long-term, and if it does not, our business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

We face competition from much larger and well-established companies. We face competition from much larger and well-established companies. Our competition is not only from other independent digital media rental service providers, but also from other providers of movie and video game content, from traditional stores, such as Blockbuster and Hollywood Video, to other self-service kiosks, such as RedBox, to online or postal providers, such as Netflix, to other movie distribution rental channels, such as pay-per-view, video-on-demand, online streaming, premium television, basic cable, and network and syndicated television, many of whom may be more experienced in the business or have more resources than we do or otherwise compete with us in this segment of our business as described above. All of these competitors have or may have greater financial resources, production, sales, marketing, engineering and other capabilities with which to develop, manufacture, market and sell their products, and more experience in research and development than we have. As a result, our competitors may have greater credibility with our existing and potential customers. Further, because most of our target market is already using rental services from one or more of our competitors, our success is dependent upon our ability to attract customers away from their existing providers.

Payment of increased service fees to retailers could negatively affect our business results. We face ongoing pricing pressure from our retailers to increase the service fees we pay to them on rental services or to make other financial concessions to win or retain business. If we are unable to respond effectively to ongoing pricing-related pressures, we may fail to win or retain certain accounts. An increase in service fees paid or other financial concessions made to our retailers could significantly increase our direct operating expenses in future periods and harm our business.

We may experience delays in introducing services to the market and our services may contain defects which could seriously harm our results of operations. A key element of our business strategy is to provide differentiated service through delivery of a variety of media and the use of newer technologies. We may experience delays in introducing new or enhanced products or services to the market. Such delays, whether caused by factors such as unforeseen technology issues or otherwise, could negatively impact our sales revenue in the relevant period. In addition, we may terminate new product, service or enhancement development efforts prior to any introduction of a new product, service or enhancement. Any delays for new offerings currently under development or any product defect issues or product recalls could adversely affect the market acceptance of our products or services, our ability to compete effectively in the market, and our reputation, and therefore, could lead to decreased sales and could seriously harm our results of operations.

If we do not manage our DVD and video game inventory effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. A critical element of our rental services business model is to optimize our inventory of DVD and video game titles and copy depth to achieve satisfactory availability rates to meet consumer demand while also maximizing margins. If we do not timely acquire sufficient DVD and video game titles, due to, for example, not correctly anticipating demand, intentionally acquiring fewer copies than needed to fully satisfy demand or the lack of available titles, we may not appropriately satisfy consumer demand, which could decrease consumer satisfaction and we could lose consumers to competitors. Conversely, if we attempt to mitigate this risk and acquire a larger number of copies to achieve higher availability rates for select titles or a wider range of titles, our inventory utilization would become less efficient and our margins for rental services would be adversely affected. Our ability to accurately predict consumer demand as well as market factors, such as our ability to obtain satisfactory distribution arrangements, may impact our ability to timely acquire appropriate quantities of certain DVD and video game titles. In addition, if we are unable to obtain or maintain favorable terms from our suppliers with respect to such matters as timely movie access, copy depth and product returns, among others, or if the price of DVDs or video games increases or decreases generally or for certain titles, our inventories may become unbalanced and our margins may be adversely affected. Further, a delay in our ability to rent certain studios’ DVD titles pursuant to a delayed rental window may negatively affect consumer satisfaction and demand, and we could lose consumers to our competitors because of the timing of our inventory. In addition, if we are unable to comply with or lack the necessary internal controls to ensure appropriate documentation and tracking of DVD and video game inventory, we may, among other things, violate certain of our studio licensing arrangements, be forced to pay a fee for unaccounted for DVDs and be susceptible to risks to theft and misuse of property, any of which may negatively affect our margins in the rental services business. Any of these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

FINANCIAL RISKS

We require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to continue operations. We have never earned a profit and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We continue to operate on a negative cash flow basis. We will need to raise additional financing in order to have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations for the next 12 months. Such additional funds may not be available when required.

 

13


Table of Contents

To date, we have financed our operations through the sale of stock and certain borrowings. We expect to continue to depend upon outside financing to sustain our operations for at least the next 12 months. Our ability to obtain financing from third parties will depend upon our perceived performance and market conditions. Our inability to raise additional working capital at all or to raise it in a timely manner would negatively impact our ability to fund our operations, to generate revenues, and to otherwise execute our business plan, leading to the reduction or suspension of our operations and ultimately forcing us to go out of business.

If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities, this may cause significant dilution of our common stock, and holders of the additional equity securities may have rights senior to those of the holders of our common stock. If we obtain additional financing by issuing debt securities, the terms of these securities could restrict or prevent us from paying dividends and could limit our flexibility in making business decisions.

We have a history of losses, our auditors have stated that these losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and we expect to continue to operate at a loss for the foreseeable future. We have a history of continuing losses and negative cash flow from operations. From our inception in March 2000 through February 28, 2010, we had cumulative net losses of $5,159,569 and we had net loss in the year ended February 28, 2010 of $136,135. We expect that our expenses may increase substantially as we continue to develop our products and services. In addition, as a public company our general and administrative expenses may increase significantly. As a result, we expect to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

Because of our history of continuing losses, our auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this report, have stated that these losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The going concern qualification from our auditors could have a negative impact on our future sales to customers, inhibit our ability to obtain financing terms from vendors and may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable. Whether we ever become profitable will depend on many factors, but principally on our ability to raise additional capital and to successfully market our products and services.

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The factors described above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. Our independent registered public accounting firm has included an explanatory paragraph expressing doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit reports for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to fund our business. If we cannot continue as a going concern, we may need to substantially revise our business plan or cease operations.

We are an early stage company with a limited operating history and no significant revenues. We were formed in March 2003. Since that time, we have engaged in the film and television production. We have recorded only $230,875 in revenues since our date of inception. Our ability to implement a successful business plan remains unproven and no assurance can be given that we will ever generate sufficient revenues to sustain our business. We cannot assure that our future operations will be implemented successfully or that we will ever have profits. Moreover, we may not realize revenue from our current projects for a substantial period of time, if at all, which may result in our inability to continue financing our operations. If we are unable to sustain our operations, we will be forced to cease operations entirely. Furthermore, we are experiencing the initial costs and uncertainties of a newly formed business, including additional expenditures, unforeseen costs and difficulties, complications, and delays, all of which must be resolved and/or paid without the benefit of a predictable revenue stream. These risks and uncertainties include the following:

 

 

our business model and strategy are still evolving and are continually being reviewed and revised; and

 

 

we may not be able to successfully implement our business model and strategy.

We cannot be sure that we will be successful in meeting these challenges and addressing these risks and uncertainties. If we are unable to do so, our business will not be successful.

Accounting practices used in our industry may accentuate fluctuations in operating results. In addition to the cyclical nature of the entertainment industry, our accounting practices for our PMW business (which are standard for the industry) may accentuate fluctuations in our operating results. For example, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and industry practice, we are required to expense film advertising costs as incurred, but are also required to recognize the revenue from any film or television program over the entire revenue stream expected to be generated by the individual picture or television program.

We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, and we may never pay dividends and, consequently, the only opportunity for investors to achieve a return on their investment is if a trading market develops and investors are able to sell their shares for a profit or if our business is sold at a price that enables investors to recognize a profit. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to support the development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by state law. Accordingly, we cannot assure investors any return on their investment, other than in connection with a sale of their shares or a sale of our business. At the present time there is a limited trading market for our shares. Therefore, holders of our securities may be unable to sell them. We cannot assure investors that an active trading market will develop or that any third party would offer to purchase our business on acceptable terms and at a price that would enable our investors to recognize a profit.

CORPORATE AND OTHER RISKS

Limitations on director and officer liability and indemnification of our officers and directors by us may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director. The Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide, with certain exceptions as permitted by governing state law, that a director or officer shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law, or unlawful payments of dividends. These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director for breach of fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation brought by stockholders on our behalf against a director. In addition, the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws may provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by governing state law.

We are responsible for the indemnification of our officers and directors. Should our officers and/or directors require us to contribute to their defense, we may be required to spend significant amount of our capital. Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities on behalf of our Company. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures, which we may be unable to recoup. If these expenditures are significant, or involve issues which result in significant liability for our key personnel, we may be unable to continue operating as a going concern.

The relative lack of public company experience of our management team may put us at a competitive disadvantage. Our management team lacks public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as those imposed by Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The individuals who now constitute our senior management have had very limited responsibility for managing a publicly traded company. Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management may not be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to such increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements. Our failure to do so could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties and distract our management from attending to the growth of our business.

Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business. We are subject to various regulatory requirements, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We, like all other public companies, must incur additional expenses and, to a lesser extent, diversion of our management’s time in our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Our lack of familiarity with Section 404 may unduly divert management’s time and resources in executing the business plan. If, in the future, management identifies one or more material weaknesses, or our external auditors are unable to attest that our management’s report is fairly stated or to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls, this could result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports, have an adverse effect on our stock price and/or subject us to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities. Also, it may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.

We are dependent for our success on a few key executive officers. Our inability to retain those officers would impede our business plan and growth strategies, which would have a negative impact on our business and the value of your investment. Our success depends on the skills, experience and performance of key members of our management team. We do not have long-term employment agreements with any of the members of our senior management team. Each of those individuals may voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company at any time upon short notice. Were we to lose one or more of these key executive officers, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement, which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion of limited working capital. We do not maintain a key man insurance policy on any of our executive officers.

CAPITAL MARKET RISKS

Our common stock is thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares. There is limited market activity in our stock and we are too small to attract the interest of many brokerage firms and analysts. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. While we are trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, the trading volume we will develop may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, as well as individual investors follow a policy of not investing in Bulletin Board stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending Bulletin Board stocks because they are considered speculative, volatile and thinly traded.

The market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses, announcements of new products or services by us, significant sales of our common stock, including “short” sales, the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable to us, and news reports relating to trends in our markets or general economic conditions.

The application of the “penny stock” rules to our common stock could limit the trading and liquidity of the common stock, adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares. As long as the trading price of our common stock is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules, unless we otherwise qualify for an exemption from the “penny stock” definition. The “penny stock” rules impose additional sales practice requirements on certain broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). These regulations, if they apply, require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the associated risks. Under these regulations, certain brokers who recommend such securities to persons other than established customers or certain accredited investors must make a special written suitability determination regarding such a purchaser and receive such purchaser’s written agreement to a transaction prior to sale. These regulations may have the effect of limiting the trading activity of our common stock, reducing the liquidity of an investment in our common stock and increasing the transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.

The stock market in general, and the market prices for penny stock companies in particular, have experienced volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our stock, regardless of our operating performance.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

We may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms, which could have a material adverse impact on the market value of our common stock. Security analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of our common stock since there is no incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock. The absence of such coverage limits the likelihood that an active market will develop for our common stock. It will also likely make it more difficult to attract new investors at times when we require additional capital.

We may be unable to list our common stock on NASDAQ or on any securities exchange. Although we may apply to list our common stock on NASDAQ or the NYSE Amex in the future, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the initial listing standards, including the minimum per share price and minimum capitalization requirements, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on either of those or any other trading venue. Until such time as we qualify for listing on NASDAQ, the NYSE Amex or another trading venue, our common stock will continue to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board or another over-the-counter quotation system, or on the “pink sheets,” where an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, rules promulgated by the Commission impose various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities that fail to meet certain criteria set forth in those rules to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, these rules may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect the liquidity of our common stock. It would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

Future sales of our equity securities could put downward selling pressure on our securities, and adversely affect the stock price. There is a risk that this downward pressure may make it impossible for an investor to sell his securities at any reasonable price, if at all. Future sales of substantial amounts of our equity securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could put downward selling pressure on our securities, and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On April 20, 2010, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 20,000 shares of Company common stock to each of five individuals in exchange for their services to the Company. The individuals are Joseph Merhi, our former Chief Executive Officer and a director; Elie Samaha, our former President and a director; Edward Frumkes, a director; Al Hayes, our former Chief Operating Officer; and Corbin Bernsen, the President of our Public Film Works division. The shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued to the five individuals are restricted shares, and may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption there under. The shares of Company common stock were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering, and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the individuals in connection with the offering.

Commencing May 2010, the Company initiated a private placement of convertible notes and warrants. The convertible notes convert into common stock at the conversion price of $1.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable for a period of one year at an exercise price of $1.25 per share, and are redeemable by the Company if the price of the Company’s common stock exceeds $2.25 per share for seven or more consecutive trading days. The convertible notes and warrants were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.” below. In addition to historical information, the following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors discussed in this report. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above.

Overview

PMW is engaged in the development, production, marketing and distribution of film, music and television entertainment media.

EntertainmentXpress plans to roll out a network of conveniently located, self-service, kiosks which deliver DVD movies and other content to consumers. The kiosks will provide consumers the ability to rent and purchase DVD movies, video games and other products. EntertainmentXpress plans to locate the kiosks in quick-serve food locations, grocery stores and other high-traffic, public venues.

Results of Operations for PMW

The Company’s revenues for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 were $50,000 and February 28, 2009 were $0.

The Company’s operating expenses for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 were $103,099, compared to operating expenses of $308,725 for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2009. This decrease in operating expenses is attributed to cost cutting measures and a decrease in stock based compensation by the Company.

The Company had a net loss of $136,135 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, compared to a net loss of $432,845 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. This decrease in operating expenses is attributed to cost cutting measures and a decrease in stock based compensation by the Company.

The Company reported a cumulative net loss of $5,159,569 from inception through February 28, 2010.

The Company’s net cash used by operating activities decreased from $171,258 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009 to $49,761 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010. This decrease is also attributed to cost cutting measures by the Company.

Results of Operations for EntertainmentXpress

EntertainmentXpress was formed in December 2009. The discussion below describes EntertainmentXpress’ results of operation for the period from inception to February 28, 2010.

EntertainmentXpress did not generate any revenues during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

Direct operating expenses for the period were $9,949 and were comprised of initial expenses for kiosk preparation.

Other expenses for the period ended February 28, 2010 included: general and administrative expenses of $26,948; $19,445 in fees to consultants; depreciation expense of $234; lease expense of $4,100; and professional fees including legal and accounting fees of $78,193.

EntertainmentXpress reported a net loss of $138,870 from inception through February 28, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At February 28, 2010 our total assets were $114,864. The decrease in total assets was due to the write-off of film development costs in 2009.

Our current assets at February 28, 2010 totaled $101,078, and our current liabilities were $76,260. Our stockholders’ deficit at February 28, 2010 was $1,122,753

We do not currently have unused credit facilities available to us. To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of common stock in exchange for cash and services, as well as through secured and unsecured notes payable to stockholders and third parties.

Subsequent to the end of the year, and in connection with the Exchange Agreement with EntertainmentXpress we initiated a private placement of securities consisting of a convertible note with warrant (the “Convertible Note”). Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note, purchasers are entitled to one share of Company common stock for each $1.00 purchased and one warrant to purchase one share of Company common stock on or before one year from the conversion date. The conversion date is five days after the note purchase date. The warrant exercise price is $1.25 per share. Following conversion of the Convertible Note, if the trading price of the Company’s shares is equal to or greater than $2.25 for seven (7) or more consecutive days of trading, the Company shall have thirty (30) days within which to “call” the warrants. In the event of a warrant call, the Holder shall have ten (10) days from the date of the call to either exercise such holder’s warrants or the Warrants will expire. The shares issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes have piggyback registration rights. As of the date of this report the Company has issued $133,000 in Convertible Notes due to convert on May 10, 2010.

Commitments

As of February 28, 2010 the Company has aggregate outstanding notes payable and accrued interest balances of approximately $1,088,177, under the following obligations:

1. On August 30, 2000, the Company and George Mainas, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and a shareholder, entered into a promissory note bearing interest at 8% per annum. As of February 28, 2010, the Company had an outstanding balance of $699,686 under the promissory note, including accrued interest.

2. On August 19, 2004, the Company entered into a line of credit with Mainas Development Corporation, which is wholly-owned by George Mainas. The non-revolving line of credit has a maximum draw-down of $250,000, bears interest of 9% annually, does not maintain an outstanding balance limitation. The outstanding balance on this account as of February 28, 2010 was $292,647 including accrued interest.

3. In July 2008, the Company entered into a promissory obligation to George Mainas to borrow $42,000 bearing interest at 7% per annum. As of February 28, 2010, the Company had an outstanding balance of $68,713 under the obligation, including accrued interest.

Effective August 14, 2009, the Company executed a Loan Modification and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with George Mainas and Mainas Development Corporation, a corporation wholly-owned by George Mainas, pursuant to which George Mainas and Mainas Development Corporation agreed to extend the repayment date for the Company’s outstanding loan obligations to them described above until December 31, 2009, in consideration of the Company granting a security interest in the Company’s assets to secure repayment of the loan obligations. The description of the terms of the Loan Agreement is qualified by reference to the complete copy of the agreement which is filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 18, 2009 and incorporated herein by reference. Effective December 30, 2009, George Mainas and Mainas Development Corporation agreed to extend the repayment period to February 28, 2010 under the Loan Agreement. On May 4, 2010, in connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, George Mainas and Mainas Development Agreement entered into an Amendment to the Loan Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed as follows: (i) the maturity date of all loan obligations under the Loan Agreement shall be extended until June 30, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”); (ii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement may be converted into shares of Borrower’s common stock at the election of Secured Party at any time upon written notice to Borrower at a price of $4.00 per share; and (iii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement shall automatically convert into shares of Borrower’s common stock in the event that the 10 day trailing VWAP (volume weighted average price) for the Borrower’s common stock (as quoted on Borrower’s principal trading market) shall exceed $4.00 per share at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

On May 4, 2010, in connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, George Mainas and Mainas Development Agreement entered into an Amendment to the Loan Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed as follows: (i) the maturity date of all loan obligations under the Loan Agreement shall be extended until June 30, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”); (ii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement may be converted into shares of Borrower’s common stock at the election of Secured Party at any time upon written notice to Borrower at a price of $4.00 per share; and (iii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement shall automatically convert into shares of Borrower’s common stock in the event that the 10 day trailing VWAP (volume weighted average price) for the Borrower’s common stock (as quoted on Borrower’s principal trading market) shall exceed $4.00 per share at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

4. In May 2002, the Company entered into an unwritten, unsecured promissory obligation to Denis Shusterman, a stockholder, in exchange for his payment of $16,715 in general and administrative expenses on behalf of the Company. This obligation is payable upon demand and bears no interest. As of November 30, 2009, the outstanding balance under this obligation was $16,715. On May 18, 2007, the Company received a Writ of Garnishment from the U.S. Department of Justice related to a judgment due from Denis Shusterman to the United States. The Company expects the U.S. Department of Justice to make demand for repayment of the amounts due and owing under the Company’s obligation to Denis Shusterman.

5. The Company entered into note payable agreement to settle an outstanding rental obligation for $10,000, which is effective as of July 1, 2009 and due within twelve months. As of February 28, 2010, the Company had an outstanding balance of $10,416 under the obligation, including accrued interest.

The proceeds from these notes and the line of credit were used to meet the general working capital needs of the Company. Increases in expenses or delays in product development or failure to achieve our sales projections may adversely impact our cash position and may require us to seek additional financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. We do not have any arrangements with any bank or financial institution to secure additional financing and there can be no assurance that any such arrangements, if required or otherwise sought, would be available on terms deemed to be commercially acceptable and in our best interests.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our balance sheet, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Going Concern and Liquidity Matters

The accompanying financial statements of PMW have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $136,135 during year ended February 28, 2010, and has incurred net cash outflows from operating activities during the years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009 of approximately $49,761 and $171,258, respectively. Our independent registered public accounting firm reported for 2010 and 2009 that these factors create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As of the date of this report, we are in various stages of development on numerous film and television projects. A summary table of PMW’s film and television projects as of the date of this report is included in Item 1. Our ability to complete the projects is subject to a variety of factors, including our ability to obtain funding for the projects; the availability of limited production time from third parties; the availability of actors; our ability to secure appropriate sets and locations; our ability to secure suitable outlets for the release of the project; and our election to change its production schedule for new projects.

We do not currently have any funding for any of our film and television projects, and there can be no assurances that we will secure the funding necessary to develop the projects any further or secure a TV network order for any of the television projects. We have not generated any significant revenues from these projects as of the date of this report, and there can be no assurances we will ever generate any revenues from these projects.

The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitability. We will need to obtain additional financing through the sale of equity securities and / or the issuance of debt, if needed. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, will affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Both this Management’s Discussion and Analysis and our Plan of Operation discuss our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions, including those related to film development costs, income taxes, long lived asset valuation, revenue recognition and stock based compensation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience of operations and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Stock-Based Compensation. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R) which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is

Table of Contents

required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. SFAS 123R supersedes our previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, for periods beginning January 1, 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) relating to SFAS 123R. We have applied the provisions of SAB 107 in our adoption of SFAS 123R. SFAS 123R requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurances that material information related to our Company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that as of February 28, 2010, our disclosure controls were not effective at that “reasonable assurance” for the reasons discussed below related to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  1. pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 

  2. provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

 

23


Table of Contents
  3. provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Based on that assessment under such criteria, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of February 28, 2010 due to control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses.

We did not include an attestation report from our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management’s report.

Identified Material Weaknesses

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following internal control deficiencies, which it deemed material weaknesses during its assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2010:

 

  1. Management in assessing its internal controls and procedures for fiscal 2010 identified a lack of sufficient segregation of duties, particularly in cash disbursements. Specifically, this material weakness is such that the design over the areas of cash disbursements relies primarily on detective controls and could be strengthened by adding preventative controls to properly safeguard company assets.

 

  2. Management has identified a lack of sufficient personnel in the accounting function due to the limited resources of the Company with appropriate skills, training and experience to perform the review of the Company with appropriate skills, training and experience to perform the review processes to ensure the complete and proper application of generally accepted accounting principles, particularly as it relates to taxes, recording and accuracy of accounts payable and accruals, valuation of share based payments, and other equity transactions. Specifically, this material weakness lead to segregation of duties issues and resulted in audit adjustments to the annual consolidated financial statements and revisions to related disclosures, including tax reporting, share based payments, accounts payable and accruals and other equity transactions.

In conclusion, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2010.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

The Company is in the process of developing and implementing remediation plans to address its material weaknesses.

 

24


Table of Contents

Management has identified specific remedial actions to address the material weaknesses described above:

 

  1. Improve the effectiveness of the accounting group by continuing to augment existing Company resources with additional consultants or employees to improve segregation procedures and to assist in the analysis and recording of complex accounting transactions and preparation of tax disclosures. The Company plans to mitigate the segregation of duties issues by hiring additional personnel in the accounting department once the Company is generating revenue, or has raised significant additional working capital.

 

  2. Improve segregation procedures by strengthening cross approval of various functions including cash disbursements and quarterly internal audit procedures where appropriate.

Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Changes in Controls and Procedures

There were no significant changes made in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended February 28, 2010 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect these controls.

Subsequent to the end of the year, we entered into the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement with EntertainmentXpress which will materially impact our internal controls over financial reporting. In connection with the Exchange Agreement we have acquired a new business and will need to develop internal controls that encompass that business. In addition, we have experienced a change in control in the management of the Company. Joseph Merhi resigned as our Chief Executive Officer, Elie Samaha resigned as our President, and Garrett Cecchini was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer, President, Corporate Secretary and a director, Larry Gitlin was appointed as our Chief Operating Officer, and Mark Smith was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Change of Control of the Company

The Company had 6,136,458 shares of common stock outstanding as of immediately before the closing of the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement with EntertainmentXpress. In connection with the closing of the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement with EntertainmentXpress an additional 13,685,755 shares of Company common stock will be issued to the shareholders of EntertainmentXpress. As a result of the EntertainmentXpress transaction, the shareholders of the Company which existed prior to the closings will own approximately 30% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, and the former EntertainmentXpress shareholders will own approximately 70% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, which resulted in a change of control of the Company.

The identity of the persons who acquired control of the Company, and their percentage ownership of voting securities of the Company as of May 4, 2010, is set forth in the beneficial ownership table set forth in Item 12 “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters”.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Company directors are elected by the stockholders to a term of one (1) year and to serve until his or her successor is elected and qualified. Each of the officers is appointed by the Board of Directors to a term of one (1) year and serves until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until he is removed from office. There have been no material changes to the procedures by which stockholders can nominate directors. The Company pays no executive cash compensation. Because of the lack of board compensation and the Company’s restricted capital position, it has limited opportunity to attract and retain outside directors. The Board of Directors has no nominating, compensation, and does not have an “audit committee financial expert”. Our board of directors currently acts as our audit committee. There are no family relationships among members of management or the Board of Directors of the Company.

Board of Directors

The Company’s organizational documents authorize five board members, four of which are currently filled by Mr. Merhi, Mr. Mainas, Mr. Frumkes and Mr. Cecchini.

Leadership Structure

The chairman of our board of directors also served as our chief executive officer during the period ending February 28, 2010. Our board of directors does not have a lead independent director. Our board of directors determined that its leadership structure was appropriate and effective. Our board of directors believed that having a single individual serve as both chairman and chief executive officer provides leadership, accountability and promotes transparency among directors and company management. Effective May 4, 2010, in connection with the EntertainmentXpress transaction, the Company appointed a new chief executive officer who is not our chairman of the board of directors. The members of our board of directors are also actively involved in the management of the Company, which includes having an active role in risk oversight of the Company and its operations.

Attendance at Board Meetings during Fiscal Year

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, the Board of Directors held three meetings and completed three Board actions by written consent of the Board of Directors. Messrs.

Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has not established a formal process for shareholders to send communications to its members. Any stockholder may send a communication to any member of the Board of Directors, in care of the Company’s address or in care of the address shown in the table of beneficial ownership on this page. If a communication is sent to the Company’s address, the Company will forward any such communication to the relevant member of the Board of Directors.

Section 16(A) Beneficial Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. These insiders are required by Securities and Exchange Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file, including Forms 3, 4 and 5. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company, during the period ended February 28, 2010, and to date, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its insiders were complied with.

Company Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct (the “Code”) that applies to the every officer of and director to the Company. The Code is attached an exhibit to its Form 10-KSB filed with the Commission on August 18, 2004. The Code is also available free of charge upon request to the Company at 8840 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, California 90211, Attention: Corporate Secretary

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Delaware General Corporate Law permits a Delaware corporation to indemnify a present or former director or officer of the corporation (and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities) for liabilities, including legal expenses, arising by reason of service in such capacity if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed, to the best interests of the corporation, and in any criminal proceeding if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. However, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification may be made with respect to any matter as to which such director or officer shall have been adjudged liable, except in certain limited circumstances.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that no director shall be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by such director as a director. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a director shall be liable to the extent provided by applicable law, (i) for breach of the directors’ duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of Delaware General Corporate Law or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit Our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify our officers, directors, employees and agents to the extent permitted by Delaware General Corporate Law. Pursuant to Section 145 of Delaware General Corporate Law, a corporation generally has the power to indemnify its present and former directors, officers, employees and agents against expenses incurred by them in connection with any suit to which they are or are threatened to be made, a party by reason of their serving in such positions so long as they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and with respect to any criminal action, they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. We believe that having these provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws is necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. These provisions do not eliminate the directors’ duty of care, and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware General Corporate Law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for acts or omissions that the director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the Company or its stockholders, for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, for acts or omissions involving a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the Company or its stockholders when the director was aware or should have been aware of a risk of serious injury to the Company or its stockholders, for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the Company or its stockholders, for improper transactions between the director and the Company and for improper distributions to stockholders and loans to directors and officers. The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities law or state or federal environmental laws.

Table of Contents

The indemnification provided by Delaware General Corporate Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws is not exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer may be entitled. The general effect of the foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances under which an officer or director may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing liabilities and expense.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Public MediaWorks, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Public MediaWorks, Inc. (the “Company”) as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Public Media Works, Inc. as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred significant recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations through February 28, 2010, it has an accumulated deficit of $5,159,569. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans as to these matters are described in Note 2. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Public Media Works, Inc. (formerly Burnam Management, Inc.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 3, 2000. The Company is engaged in the development, production, marketing and distribution of film, music and television entertainment media. On August 30, 2003, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Public Media Works, Inc., a private company formed to pursue opportunities in the film/TV and entertainment industry. The share exchange agreement is essentially a reverse merger with Public Media Works, Inc., the surviving company.

On January 11, 2007, the Company formed DOD, LLC (a California Limited Liability Company and wholly-owned Subsidiary) for the purpose of production and exploitation of a motion picture entitled Donna On Demand. On April 29, 2007, the Company obtained a 20% equity ownership in Dead Air, LLC (“Dead Air”) (a California Limited Liability Company) for the purpose of production and exploitation of a motion picture entitled Dead Air.

Effective August 26, 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with one of its shareholders to sell and transfer its membership interests in DOD, LLC and Dead Air to such shareholder. As a result, effective August 26, 2008, the accounts of DOD, LLC are no longer included in the financial statements. In exchange for the sale of the membership interests, all outstanding debt and accrued interest owed by the Company to the shareholder, amounting to $55,475 was forgiven. The Company also had a net liability of $34,562 due to DOD, LLC which was forgiven as part of the transaction. Given its related party nature, the transaction has been accounted for as a capital contribution and the difference of $93,561 between the debt forgiven and the assets transferred to the shareholder has been reflected as additional paid-in capital in the accompanying balance sheet at February 28, 2009.

The calculation of the capital contribution on the transfer of membership interests to the shareholder was calculated as follows:

 

Debt forgiven

  

Note payable and accrued interest to shareholder

   $ 55,475

Due to DOD, LLC

     34,562
      

Transaction consideration

     90,037

Net assets transferred to shareholder

     3,534
      

Additional paid-in capital - capital contribution on transaction with shareholder

   $ 93,571
      

The Company has agreements to share in the future profits of DOD, LLC (12.5% of any distributions) and Dead Air (10% of any distributions), should their profitability reach certain defined levels, if any. Currently, management considers it remote that it will receive any profit participation royalties in the future relating to these films.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America.

In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which became the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB. ASC 105-10 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but on the effective date, the FASB ASC superseded all then existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The ASC is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009.

PUBLIC MEDIA WORKS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

The Company adopted ASC 105-10 during the year ended February 28, 2010 and revised its referencing of GAAP accounting standards in these financial statements to reflect the new standards.

Principles of Consolidation

The financial statements prior to August 26, 2008 are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and DOD, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts were eliminated in consolidation. The Company no longer consolidates the subsidiary due to the transfer of its membership interests in DOD, LLC to a shareholder effective August 26, 2008.

Use of Estimates

Financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management has estimated its loss contingencies, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and valuation assumptions related to share based payments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company doesn’t have any cash equivalents outstanding as of February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Film Development Costs

Included in film development costs are films produced by the Company, capitalized costs include all direct production and financing costs, capitalized interest and production overhead.

Film development costs are stated at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. The valuation of investment in films and television programs is reviewed on a title-by-title basis, when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of a film or television program is less than its unamortized cost. The fair value of the film or television program is determined using management’s future revenue and cost estimates and a discounted cash flow approach. Additional amortization is recorded in the amount by which the unamortized costs exceed the estimated fair value of the film or television program. Estimates of future revenue involve measurement uncertainty and it is therefore possible that reductions in the carrying value of investment in films may be required as a consequence of changes in management’s future revenue estimates. Management’s policy is to write off film development costs after three years if the film or television show has not been financed for production or began successful distribution.

Equipment, Net

Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820-10 (formerly SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. ASC 820-10 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, the carrying value of certain financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC No. 605, “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue is recognized when all of the following conditions exist: (a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of an accepted purchase order or equivalent documentation; (b) delivery has occurred, based on shipping terms, or services have been provided; (c) the Company’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, as documented on the accepted purchase order or similar documentation; and (d) collectibility is reasonably assured.

Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing earnings to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including shares reserved for issuance) during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options, warrants using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. The Company’s outstanding stock options were not included in the loss per share calculations because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, the Company had 600,000 and 925,000 stock options outstanding, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB change periodically. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Company’s future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In May 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance related to ASC 855, Subsequent Events. ASC 855 establishes that management must evaluate, as of each reporting period, events or transactions that occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements and the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date through the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It also requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. The Company adopted ASC 855 during the year ended February 28, 2010. The required disclosures are included in Note 11, “Subsequent Events”.

In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance related to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 provisions define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value and expand disclosure requirements. The new guidance emphasizes that even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants. The guidance provides a number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity. In addition, when transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine the appropriate fair value. The guidance also requires increased disclosures. The Company adopted the new guidance for the year ended February 28, 2010 with no resulting impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance related to ASC 810, Consolidation, which requires an enterprise to determine whether its variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the enterprise that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. ASC 810 also amends FASB Interpretation No 46(R) to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. ASC 810 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of this pronouncement but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.

2. Going Concern and Liquidity Matters

The Company has sustained operating losses for the years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009. Additionally, the Company has a stockholders’ deficit $1.122 million as of February 28, 2010. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members or other sources, as may be required.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s plans are to merge with EntertainmentXpress, Inc. and to raise additional capital to develop the operations of the combined company by continuing to develop revenue opportunities that coincide with continuing management’ expertise and of the combined entity. For further developments related to the reverse merger / recapitalization of Public Media Works, Inc. Please see note 11. Subsequent Events.

3. Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues were derived from a one-time payment under a consulting arrangement with a third party in which the Company agreed to assist the third party with its desired investment in a media company in exchange for $50,000 in cash and an ownership position in the investment. The ownership position in the investment has not been received as of February 28, 2010.

Effective December 31, 2009, George Mainas and Mainas Development Corporation agreed to extend the repayment period to February 28, 2010 under the Loan Modification and Security Agreement dated August 14, 2009.

In the second quarter of 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement for past due rent of $10,000 the balance accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum.

8. Common Stock

On January 12, 2010, the Company issued 100,000 shares at $0.02 per share to its former Chief Operating Officer.

On January 12, 2010, the Company issued 500,000 shares at $0.10 per share to its majority shareholder in exchange for $50,000 owed to this shareholder.

On April 17, 2009, $15,000 of accrued salary recorded as of February 28, 2009 for the CEO of the Company was converted into 75,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share.

On April 8, 2008, the Company issued 250,000 shares of its common stock at $0.10 per share for a total amount of $25,000.

On April 22, 2008, the Company entered into an investor relations and consulting agreement with CRG Partners, Inc. The agreement requires the Company to issue 60,000 shares of its common stock upon signing the agreement and 300,000 shares if the Company renews the agreement during the renewal period. The 60,000 shares issued on April 22, 2008 were valued at $0.13 per share or $7,800 and has been expensed in the statement of operations. The Company has not yet renewed the agreement.

On May 21, 2008, the Company issued 100,000 shares of its common stock at $0.25 per share for a total amount of $25,000.

On June 2, 2008, the Company executed a debt conversion agreement with George Mainas, a Company director and principal stockholder and debt holder, for the conversion of $30,000 in Company debt into 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $0.25 per share. The issuance of the Company’s shares of common stock to Mr. Mainas was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. The shares of the Company’s Common Stock to issued to Mr. Mainas are restricted shares, and may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption thereunder. As the fair value of the common stock issued amounted to $60,000 on the date of the agreement, the conversion resulted in a loss on the issuance of common stock of $30,000, which is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended August 31, 2008.

On August 1, 2008, the Company raised $40,000 through the sale of a total of 200,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share to two accredited investors, directors and stockholders of the Company. The issuance of the Company’s shares of common stock was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. The shares of the Company’s common stock issued are restricted shares, and may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption thereunder.

9. Stock Based Compensation

The Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is not yet shareholder-approved, permits the grant of share options and shares to its employees and affiliates for up to one million shares of common stock. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees and affiliates with those of its shareholders. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price that approximates the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Because the Black-Scholes option valuation model incorporate ranges of assumptions for inputs, those ranges are disclosed. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock, historical volatility of the Company’s stock, and the other factors. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted is derived from estimates and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

10. Income Taxes

At February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $1.638 million and $1.592 million. Due to uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets, a full valuation has been established to offset the net deferred tax asset. Additionally, the future utilization of the company’s net operating loss carry forwards to offset future taxable income may be

subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. The Company has not yet determined whether such an ownership change has occurred. Until this analysis has been completed the Company has removed the deferred tax assets associated with these carry forwards from its deferred tax asset schedule and has recorded a corresponding decrease to their valuation allowance.

The provision for income tax consists of the following components at February 28, 2010 and February 29, 2009:

 

     2010    2009

Current:

     

Federal income taxes

Tax Provision

   $ —        $ 1,178   
                

The Company has loss carry forwards totaling $4,682,809 that may be offset against future federal income taxes.

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, (formerly FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109), the Company performed an analysis of its previous tax filings and determined that there were no positions taken that it considered uncertain. Therefore, there was no provision for uncertain tax positions for the years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009. Future changes in uncertain tax positions are not expected to have an impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence of the valuation allowance. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of interest and other expenses in its statements of operations. The Company has incurred no interest or penalties as of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009.

11. Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through May 10, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.

On March 24, 2010, Public Media Works, Inc. entered into a share exchange agreement with EntertainmentXpress, Inc., a California corporation (“EntXpress”), and certain shareholders of EntXpress (the “EntXpress Sellers”) which own more than 50% of the outstanding stock of EntXpress. On May 4, 2010, the Company, EntXpress and the EntXpress Sellers holding 100% of the outstanding stock of EntertainmentXpress entered into an amended and restated share exchange agreement dated as of April 23, 2010 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). The closing under the Share Exchange Agreement occurred on May 4, 2010. Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired EntXpress through an acquisition of 100% its outstanding stock. In exchange, the Company issued to the EntXpress Sellers, in the aggregate, up to 13,685,755 shares of Company stock.

The Company owns EntXpress as a subsidiary. The Share Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated there under (the “Exchange”) were approved by the Company’s three member board of directors, two of which are also shareholders of EntXpress. Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, effective as of the closing, Joseph Merhi resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; Elie Samaha resigned as the Company’s President; and Steve Davis resigned as the Company’s Corporate Secretary; and Garrett Cecchini was appointed as

the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Corporate Secretary and as a director; Larry Gitlin was appointed as the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer; and Mark Smith was appointed as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. On May 5, 2010, Mr. Gitlin resigned as President and Mr. Cecchini was appointed as President.

On April 20, 2010, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 20,000 shares of Company common stock to each of five individuals in exchange for their services to the Company. The individuals are Joseph Merhi, our former Chief Executive Officer and a director; Elie Samaha, our former President; Edward Frumkes, a director; Al Hayes, our former Chief Operating Officer; and Corbin Bernsen, the President of our Public Film Works division.

On April 23, 2010, the Company issued 150,000 shares to an investor relations consulting firm in exchange for services to be provided by the firm.

On April 29, 2010, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 400,000 options to George Mainas under the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. The options are immediately vested, have an exercise price of $1.10 per share; provide for cashless exercise; and expire 24 months after the date of grant.

On May 4, 2010, in connection with the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, George Mainas and Mainas Development Agreement entered into an Amendment to the Loan Modification and Security Agreement dated August 14, 2009 (the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed as follows: (i) the maturity date of all loan obligations under the Loan Agreement shall be extended until June 30, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”); (ii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement may be converted into shares of Borrower’s common stock at the election of Secured Party at any time upon written notice to Borrower at a price of $4.00 per share; and (iii) all principal and accrued interest under the Loan Agreement shall automatically convert into shares of Borrower’s common stock in the event that the 10 day trailing VWAP (volume weighted average price) for the Borrower’s common stock (as quoted on Borrower’s principal trading market) shall exceed $4.00 per share at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

Subsequent to the end of the year, and in connection with the Exchange Agreement with EntertainmentXpress we initiated a private placement of securities consisting of a convertible note with warrant (the “Convertible Note”). Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note, purchasers are entitled to one share of Company common stock for each $1.00 purchased and one warrant to purchase one share of Company common stock on or before one year from the conversion date. The conversion date is five days after the note purchase date. The warrant exercise price is $1.25 per share. Following conversion of the Convertible Note, if the trading price of the Company’s shares is equal to or greater than $2.25 for seven (7) or more consecutive days of trading, the Company shall have thirty (30) days within which to “call” the Warrants. In the event of a Warrant call, the holder shall have ten (10) days from the date of the call to either exercise such holder’s Warrants or the Warrants will expire. The shares issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes have piggyback registration rights. As of the date of this report the Company has issued $133,000 in Convertible Notes due to convert on May 10, 2010.

Effective May 6, 2010, the Company entered into a new sublease for 3,040 square feet of office space located at 2330 Marinship Way, Suite #300, Sausalito, California 94965. The term of the sublease is 23.5 months commencing May 15, 2010 and the monthly rent is $7,448. The office space is in good condition.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

EntertainmentXpress, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of EntertainmentXpress, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly Digital Flow Media, Inc., a development stage company, as of February 28, 2010, and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period December 9, 2009 (Inception) through to February 28, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EntertainmentXpress, Inc. as of February 28, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period December 9, 2009 (Inception) through to February 28, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has a loss from operations and a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $138,870 as of February 28, 2010. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, a significant amount of additional capital will be necessary to advance operations to the point at which the Company is profitable. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Business

History of the Company

EntertainmentXpress, Inc. (“We” or the “Company”) was incorporated as a California corporation on December 10, 2009, under the name Digital Flow Media, Inc. and on January 18, 2010 we renamed the Company EntertainmentXpress. The Company is in its development stage with no established operations. In 2010, it intends to launch commercial activity as an operator of automated kiosk machines that vend digital video disks.

Nature of Business

We plan to offer self-service DVD and video game through kiosks where consumers can rent or purchase our products. We primarily plan to install our kiosks at leading grocery stores and restaurants. Our kiosks supply the functionality of a traditional video rental store. Consumers use a touch screen to select a product, swipe a valid credit or debit card, and receive their DVD or video game. The process is designed to be fast, efficient and fully automated with no membership fees.

Typically, the rental price is a flat fee plus tax for one night and if the consumer chooses to keep the product for additional nights, the consumer is charged for each additional night. We plan to generate revenue primarily through fees charged to rent or purchase a DVD or video game. We may pay retailers a percentage of our revenue. We will obtain our inventory of DVD and video game titles through wholesale distributors and third-party retailers.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America.

In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which became the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB. ASC 105-10 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but on the effective date, the FASB ASC superseded all then existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The ASC is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009.

The Company adopted ASC 105-10 during the year ended February 28, 2010 and revised its referencing of GAAP accounting standards in these financial statements to reflect the new standards.

Use of Estimates

Financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management has estimated the useful lives of equipment and accounts payable and accrued expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which at times may exceed federally insured limits. At February 28, 2010, the Company had no cash equivalents.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Equipment, Net

Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method.

Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including shares reserved for issuance) during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options, warrants using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. The Company had no outstanding options or warrants as at February 28, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB change periodically. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Company’s future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In May 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance related to ASC 855, Subsequent Events. ASC 855 establishes that management must evaluate, as of each reporting period, events or transactions that occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements and the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date through the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It also requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. The Company adopted ASC 855 during the year ended February 28, 2010. The required disclosures are included in Note 9, “Subsequent Events”.

In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance related to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 provisions define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value and expand disclosure requirements. The new guidance emphasizes that even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants. The guidance provides a number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity. In addition, when transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine the appropriate fair value. The guidance also requires increased disclosures. The Company adopted the new guidance for the year ended February 28, 2010 with no resulting impact on the Company’s financial statements.

3. Going Concern and Liquidity Matters

The Company has sustained operating losses for the period from December 9, 2009 (Inception) through February 28, 2010. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members or other sources, as may be required.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company plans to merge with Public Media Works, Inc. and to raise additional capital to develop the operations of the combined company by continuing to develop revenue opportunities that coincide with continuing management’ expertise and of the combined entity. For further developments related to the reverse merger / recapitalization with Public Media Works, Inc. Please see note 9. subsequent events.

4. Net Loss per Common Share – Basic and Diluted

Basic net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. As at February 28, 2010, the Company had only common shares outstanding and no stock options or other share equivalents convertible into common stock.

   $ 13,786   

Kiosk equipment is stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 5 years. Depreciation expense for the period ended February 28, 2010 since inception amounted to $239.

6. Office Lease

In February 2010, the Company entered into a 3 month lease for office space in Larkspur, California. The monthly rent is $4,100 per month. Under the terms of the lease the Company has the option to renew the lease for additional three month terms or convert to a month to month basis at $8,200 per month.

7. Income Taxes

The Company is primarily subject to U.S. federal and state income tax. As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, (formerly FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109), the Company performed an analysis of its previous tax filings and determined that there were no positions taken that it considered uncertain. Therefore, there were no unrecognized tax benefits as of February 28, 2009.

Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit are not expected to have an impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence of the valuation allowance. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will not change within the next twelve months. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of interest and other expenses in its statements of operations. The Company has incurred no interest or penalties as of February 28, 2010.

On February 19, 2010 the Company issued 125,000 common shares to a director and an advisor at $0.0005 per share.
