George Foreman Enterprises, Inc. (referred to in this report as "we" or the "Company") is filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2011 (this "Report"). The Company is delinquent in compliance with its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").  The filing of this Report is part of the ongoing process to bring the Company in compliance with its reporting obligations under the rules and regulations of the SEC.
 
This Report reflects the Company's financial position, results of operations, business and prospects only as of the end of the period covered by this Report.  The readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such information, because the Company's financial position has deteriorated further since the end of the period covered by this Report due to additional expenses incurred by the Company as a result of continued operation expenses and the challenges being faced by the Company to generate meaningful revenues from its business.  Additionally, as disclosed in this Report and the Company's other filings with the SEC, the Company has had a history of operating losses, and there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Any forward-looking statements included in this Report represent management's view as of the filing date of this Report.

GEORGE FOREMAN ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of George Foreman Enterprises, Inc, its wholly-owned subsidiary, George Foreman Management, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, George Foreman Ventures, LLC ("Ventures") as of May 28, 2010.  G-Nutritional, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ventures through which a majority ownership position in Vita Ventures, LLC was acquired.  Ventures also acquired a majority ownership position in InStride Ventures, LLC.  The Company was formed in Delaware in April 1996. The Company’s operations are derived from licensing agreements and royalties received from the right to use the George Foreman name.
 
On August 15, 2005, the Company and Ventures entered into a series of agreements with George Foreman and George Foreman Productions, Inc. ("GFPI") pursuant to which, among other things, Mr. Foreman assigned certain trademarks and rights to the name, image, signature, voice, likenesses, caricatures, sobriquets, and all other identifying features and indicia of Mr. Foreman to Ventures, and GFPI agreed to furnish the personal services of Mr. Foreman to Ventures.  In exchange, Mr. Foreman and GFPI were issued a 15% membership interest in Ventures.  These membership interests were, at GFPI and Mr. Foreman's option, exchanged into approximately thirty-five percent (35%), or 1,799,753 shares, of the fully-diluted shares of common stock of the Company on May 28, 2010. By exchanging these membership interests, Mr. Foreman and GFPI’s non-controlling interest of the Company was eliminated. The only remaining non-controlling interests are the 49.9% non-controlling members of InStride Ventures, LLC and Vita Ventures, LLC.  In addition, a trust of which George Foreman, Jr. and George Foreman III are the trustees was issued two shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, which shares entitle the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, to elect two (2) members of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").  The trust, as holder of such Series A Preferred Stock, has elected George Foreman and George Foreman, Jr. to serve as its designated directors on the Board.  On May 28, 2010, George Foreman and George Foreman Jr. resigned as directors and waived all rights to the shares of preferred stock which was then cancelled by the Company.
 
As part of the May 28, 2010 agreement, Mr. Foreman agreed to waive any right to receive shares of preferred stock pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. See Note 12 for further information.  George Foreman Jr. and George Foreman III, former employees of the Company, agreed to waive any right to receive any amounts due to them under their employment contracts.  The parties agreed to terminate the Services and Assignment Agreements and all of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder.  The Company, Ventures, and each of the respective Affiliates agreed to cease and desist from any and all uses of, and shall not use, the Foreman Indicia, the Indicia Rights and/or the Marks, subject only to the licenses previously provided to Ventures for the use of the Foreman Indicia, the Indicia Rights, the Materials and/or the Marks solely in connection with and for the purpose of complying with and/or exercising its contractual rights, representations, commitments and obligations under the Ventures’ License Agreements.
 
2.           RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
 
On May 28, 2010, the Company and Ventures entered into an agreement with George Foreman (“Foreman”) and GFPI, which restructured the contractual rights and obligations of the parties. In addition, Foreman and GFPI exchanged all of their membership interests in Ventures for the Company’s common stock under the Investor Rights Agreement entered into as of August 15, 2005. The parties agreed to terminate the Services and Assignment Agreements and all of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. Ventures agreed to sell, grant, assign and otherwise set over to Foreman and GFPI, solely and exclusively and forever, irrevocably and unconditionally, all of their right, title and interest, of every nature and description, whether or not such rights are now known, recognize or contemplated, including the right to enforce the same for all past, present and future infringements, in and to: the Foreman Indicia and the Indicia Rights, marks any and all registrations of, and applications to register, the Marks filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, in any states within the United States and anywhere else in the world; and all materials created or produced using the Marks, the Foreman Indicia and/or Indicia Rights including, without limitation, all copyrights therein.

The Company, Ventures, and each of the respective Affiliates agreed to cease and desist from any and all uses of, and shall not use, the Foreman Indicia, the Indicia Rights and/or the Marks, subject only to the licenses previously provided to Ventures for the use of the Foreman Indicia, the Indicia Rights, the Materials and/or the Marks solely in connection with and for the purpose of complying with and/or exercising its contractual rights, representations, commitments and obligations under the Ventures’ License Agreements.
 
Foreman and GFPI Parties agreed to waive any right to receive shares of preferred stock pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (see Note 12 below) and any amounts due to them.  Foreman and George Foreman Jr. resigned from the Company’s board of directors immediately upon the execution of this agreement.  George Foreman Jr. and George Foreman III, former employees of the Company, agreed to waive any right to receive any amounts due to them under their employment contracts.  As a result of this waiver by George Foreman Jr. and George Foreman III, George Foreman Management Inc. recognized forgiveness of indebtedness of $68,621. When these rights were waived, the Company reclassified the elimination of the $68,621 payroll accrual to additional paid-in capital.
 
Ventures entered into another Agreement with Foreman and United States Pharmaceutical Group, LLC (d/b/a NationsHealth) (“NationsHealth”) on May 28, 2010 pursuant to which Foreman was appointed as NationsHealth’s exclusive spokesman for core diabetic supplies and Foreman granted NationsHealth, through the Agreement with Ventures, an exclusive worldwide license to use the Foreman name, likeness, image and signature in connection with advertising to promote the core diabetic supplies.  As part of the Agreement, both Ventures and Foreman will share qualified lead income received from NationsHealth in addition to 10% of the net profits derived from the value of diabetic supplies. Ventures has received $50,000 of revenue to-date from NationsHealth.
 
On December 13, 2010, Ventures received a demand letter from the minority members of InStride Ventures claiming that Ventures breached its fiduciary duty to InStride Ventures by entering into this Agreement with NationsHealth on May 28, 2010. InStride Ventures had previously entered into a product distribution agreement with NationsHealth on September 4, 2008 and the minority members contend that the May 28, 2010 agreement bypassed the rights of InStride Ventures LLC.  No further action has been taken by the minority members of InStride Ventures. The Company believes that the claims set forth in the demand letter are without merit and will vigorously defend these claims.
 
3. GOING CONCERN
 
The Company is currently in default with its debt holders, has a history of net losses and negative cash flows from operations, mainly due to its inability to generate significant revenues to date, and the remaining cash available at March 31, 2011 is $147,369. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
On March 7, 2008, the Company sold 8% Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $800,000 (see Note 13 below).  The Notes are convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The proceeds from these transactions have been used to fund working capital.  The buyers of the Notes included two entities that are controlled by Seymour Holtzman.  Mr. Holtzman was a director, chief executive officer and co-chairman of the board of directors of the Company until November 8, 2010.  The buyers also included Jeremy Anderson, the chief financial officer of the Company.
 
The Company sold 8% Convertible Notes on March 31, 2008 in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000.  The Notes are also convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The proceeds from these transactions have been used to fund working capital. The amounts raised in these two transactions were not sufficient to ensure the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 
8

 

The Company paid interest on the March 7, 2008 Notes through February 7, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $805,333, which was due on March 6, 2010, and to date we have not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date.  The default interest rate under these Notes is fifteen percent (15%) and is payable until all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes have been satisfied.
 
The Company paid interest on the March 31, 2008 Notes through February 28, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $201,333, which was due on March 31, 2010, and to date we have not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date.  The default interest rate under these Notes is fifteen percent (15%) and is payable until all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes have been satisfied.
 
The Company's success will depend primarily upon its ability to exploit and protect the intellectual property rights that Mr. Foreman has assigned to Ventures.  Furthermore, Ventures is limited in the use of Mr. Foreman’s name and likeness to the products and categories it has already developed. Ventures may not explore the further development of the Foreman brand into new products and categories and may only promote and develop those agreements it has under the InStride, Vita Ventures, UFood, and NationsHealth.  These limitations may significantly impede our ability to grow, which would adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and business prospects. Mr. Foreman has entered into numerous licensing, endorsement and other agreements over the last decade, and there can be no assurances that a third party will not assert a claim to some or all of the intellectual property rights that the Company believes have been assigned to Ventures.  In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("the "PTO") may cite preexisting trademark applications and registrations by third parties against, and prior trademark owners may oppose, future trademark applications by the Company or Ventures incorporating the George Foreman name.  Further, even if the Company or Ventures were able to obtain acceptance of its trademark applications by the PTO, a significant number of similar marks registered by, and licensed to, third parties could diminish the value and protectability of the intellectual property held by the Company or Ventures.
 
The Company can give no assurance that the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to satisfy its current obligations.  The Company expects that its primary use of cash over the short-term will be for the payment of expenses to develop sales of the therapeutic footwear of InStride Ventures LLC, possible test marketing of the LifeShake, costs associated with the operation as a public company (legal, accounting, consulting, insurance, etc.) and the repayment of its interest and debt under the Notes.  Ventures is limited in the use of Mr. Foreman’s name and likeness to the products and categories it has already developed. Ventures may not explore the further development of the Foreman brand into new products and categories and may only promote and develop those agreements it has under the InStride, Vita Ventures, Ufood, and NationsHealth.  These limitations may significantly impede our ability to grow, which would adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and business prospects.
 
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The Company's significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 4 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There were no significant changes to these policies during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011 and the Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting period.  The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement date.  The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  The accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets
 
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable
 
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions
 
The following table provides the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011:

Marketable securities are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. As of December 31, 2009, management determined the investments were other-than-temporarily impaired and recorded the investments at amortized fair value.  In accordance with ASC ###-##-####, the investments should not be adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.  The Company has other financial instruments, such as receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities which have been excluded from the tables above. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying value of receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their fair values.  The Company did not have any other financial instruments with the scope of the fair value disclosure requirements as of March 31, 2011.

6. PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS
 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $15,525 and $25,000, respectively.  Balances of $12,500 and $25,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively represent prepaid insurance for the Directors and Officers Liability Policy.  The amounts are being expensed monthly over the life of the policy.

7.  INVESTMENT IN COMMON STOCK – MARKETABLE SECURITIES
 
On June 12, 2007, Ventures and KnowFat Franchise Company, Inc. (“KnowFat”) consummated a transaction pursuant to which Ventures granted KnowFat a non-exclusive limited license to use the name and likeness of George Foreman in connection with the promotion of restaurants operated by KnowFat and its franchisees.  In exchange, Ventures was granted a total of 900,000 shares of common stock of KnowFat, of which 450,000 shares vested at date of closing and the remaining shares will vest over the four-year term of the licensing agreement. On December 18, 2007, KnowFat entered into a merger agreement and commenced business operations as a publicly traded company under the name Ufood Restaurant Group, Inc ("Ufood").  Due to the conversion of shares upon the merger, the number of shares of Ufood common stock that Ventures was granted increased to 1,371,157.

This nonmonetary exchange was originally accounted for under Emerging Issues Task Force 00-08, "Accounting by a Grantee for an Equity Investment to be Received in Conjunction with Providing Goods or Services" ("EITF 00-08").  Under EITF 00-08 the 450,000 shares of Ufood (formerly known as KnowFat) common stock was recorded at the estimated fair value of $513,000 at the date of vesting. On June 12, 2008, an additional 304,702 shares of Ufood vested in accordance with the licensing agreement.  These shares were valued at their fair value of $588,075 on the vesting date.  On June 12, 2009, an additional 152,351 shares of Ufood vested in accordance with the licensing agreement.  These shares were valued at their fair value of $30,470 on the vesting date.  On June 12, 2010, an additional 152,351 shares of Ufood vested in accordance with the licensing agreement.  These shares were valued at their fair value of $45,706 on the vesting date.  As the remaining shares vest in accordance with the terms of the agreement, they will also be recorded at their then estimated fair value.
 
The investment in common stock of KnowFat is accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 320, "Investments - Debt and Equity Securities", and classified as an available-for-sale security.  The Company recorded impairment charges of $1,040,135 through December 31, 2009, as the Company determined the investment was deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.
 
8.  PREFERRED SHARES
 
A trust of which George Foreman, Jr. and George Foreman III are the trustees was issued two shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, which shares entitle the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, to elect two (2) members of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").  The trust, as holder of such Series A Preferred Stock, has elected George Foreman and George Foreman, Jr. to serve as its designated directors on the Board.  On May 28, 2010, George Foreman and George Foreman Jr. resigned as directors and waived all rights to the shares of preferred stock which was then cancelled by the Company.
 
9.  DEFERRED ROYALTY REVENUES
 
Deferred revenues include the unearned portion of licensing fees from Ufood (formerly known as KnowFat) amounting to $1,177,250, net of $1,097,158 recognized as revenue through March 31, 2011, to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four-year term of the contract. As future shares of Ufood vest (see Note 7), their fair value will be deferred and recognized over the remaining term of the contract.

10. NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

Mr. Foreman and GFPI had a combined 15% interest in Ventures, a subsidiary of the Company.  On May 28, 2010, the Company and Ventures entered into an agreement with George Foreman and GFPI, which restructured the contractual rights and obligations of the parties. As part of this agreement, Foreman and GFPI exchanged their combined 15% interest in Ventures for 1,799,753 common shares of the Company.  Vitaquest's minority portion of future profits and losses in Vita Ventures and Instride LLC's minority portion of future profits and losses in Instride Ventures is not included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Included in related party payables at March 31, 2011 are advances received by InStride Ventures, LLC from its non-controlling interest owner of $5,439 and unpaid management fees of $137,500.  In accordance with the operating agreements, the advances received by InStride Ventures, LLC from its non-controlling interest owner are interest-free and have no specified repayment term.  The Company retains Jewelcor Management Inc. ("JMI") for the use of their Wilkes-Barre office and use of various administrative services of JMI for $4,167 per month.  Since July 2008, these fees have been accruing but have not been paid. The Company's principal executive offices are in space leased by JMI from Seymour Holtzman, who served as the Company's Co-Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer until his resignation on November 8, 2010, and his wife, and made available to the Company (without separate charge) through the Company's consulting arrangement with JMI, which is controlled by Mr. Holtzman.

12. CONTINGENT LIABILITY

The Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2005, by and among the Company, and George Foreman and George Foreman Productions (the "Registration Rights Agreement") provides for contingent additional shares of preferred stock to be issued to GFPI unless the market capitalization of the Company exceeds an average of $20 million over a ten-day trading period within the first three years of the Registration Rights Agreement.  At Mr. Foreman's request, the Company shall issue a new series of preferred stock of the Company, having an aggregate liquidation preference of $1 million, bearing interest at 8% per annum, redeemable at the option of the holder three years from the date of issuance.  During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company, in accordance with FASB Statement No. 5, "Loss Contingencies", believed it was probable at that time the market capitalization would not reach or exceed $20 million and therefore recognition of a loss contingency was appropriate.  The Company recorded a charge in 2007 of $1 million for this class of contingent preferred stock.  As of August 15, 2008, the market capitalization did not reach or exceed $20 million and the shares were issuable upon Mr. Foreman's request, subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. Mr. Foreman requested these shares on or about October 8, 2008.   On May 28, 2010, the Company and Ventures entered into an agreement with George Foreman and GFPI, which restructured the contractual rights and obligations of the parties. As part of this agreement, Foreman agreed to waive any right to receive shares of preferred stock pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company reclassified the elimination of the $1 million contingent liability to additional paid-in capital.
 
13. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

On March 7, 2008, the Company sold 8% Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $800,000.  The Notes are convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The fair value of the detachable warrants was $640,000.  The buyers of the Notes included two entities that are controlled by Seymour Holtzman.  Mr. Holtzman was a director, chief executive officer and co-chairman of the board of directors of the Company until November 8, 2010.  The buyers also included Jeremy Anderson, the chief financial officer of the Company.  These notes were due on March 6, 2010 and the Company has not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date. The Company paid interest on the March 7, 2008 Notes through February 7, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $805,333, which was due on March 6, 2010.
 
Effective March 31, 2008, the Company sold newly issued 8% Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000.  The Notes are also convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Also, each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The fair value of the detachable warrants was $160,000.  These notes were due on March 31, 2010 and the Company has not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date. The Company paid interest on the March 31, 2008 Notes through February 28, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay interest in the aggregate amount of $201,333, which was due on March 31, 2010.
 
Both the March 7, 2008 and the March 31, 2008 Notes are currently in default as the Notes were not paid on the maturity dates.  The default interest rate under these notes is fifteen percent (15%) and is payable until all of the Company’s obligations under the notes have been satisfied.  On December 8, 2010, the Company issued checks to all holders of the notes, in an amount equal to three (3) months of interest at the pre-default rate, which amounted to $19,500.  Jeremy Anderson waived the interest payment due to him as a holder of one of the notes and thus was not paid any amount.  The Company currently remains in default on both the March 7, 2008 and March 31, 2008 Notes.
 
The convertible debentures were issued in accordance with ASC 470-20-30, "Debt with Conversion and Other Options".  The Company calculated the value of the beneficial conversion feature embedded in the convertible notes.  In accordance with ASC 470-20-30, convertible notes are split into two components: a debt component and a component representing the embedded derivatives in the debt.  The debt component represents the Company’s liability for interest coupon payments and redemption amounts.  The embedded derivative represents the value of the warrant that debt holders have to convert into ordinary shares of the Company.  The debt component of the convertible note is measured at amortized cost and therefore increases, with a corresponding charge to finance cost-other than interest.  The debt component decreases by the cash interest coupon payments made.  The beneficial conversion feature is a discount against the debt and the value to the warrants increases additional paid-in capital.

14. NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
 
Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shares in the earnings (loss) of the Company.  Certain unexercised stock options and convertible debt warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock as of March 31, 2011, were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because the options' and warrants’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock and the effect would be antidilutive.  For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 1,515,000 and 3,314,753 potential common shares outstanding, respectively.

Overview
 
On August 15, 2005, the Company and George Foreman Ventures, LLC ("Ventures") entered into a series of agreements with George Foreman and George Foreman Productions, Inc. ("GFPI") pursuant to which, among other things, Mr. Foreman assigned certain trademarks and rights to the name, image, signature, voice, likenesses, caricatures, sobriquets, and all other identifying features and indicia of Mr. Foreman to Ventures, and GFPI agreed to furnish the personal services of Mr. Foreman to Ventures.  In exchange, Mr. Foreman and GFPI were issued membership interests in Ventures.  These membership interests were, at the option of Mr. Foreman and GFPI, exchanged into approximately thirty-five percent (35%), or 1,799,753 shares, of the fully-diluted shares of common stock of the Company on May 28, 2010.  In addition, a trust of which George Foreman, Jr. and George Foreman III are the trustees was issued two shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, which shares entitle the holders thereof, voting separately as a class, to elect two (2) members of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").  The Company was formed in Delaware in April 1996.  The Company’s operations are derived from licensing agreements and royalties received from the right to use the George Foreman name.
 
The Company's employees are retained by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, George Foreman Management, Inc. ("Foreman Management").  As of March 31, 2011, Foreman Management had two part-time employees. These employees also perform services for other entities.
 
On September 7, 2006, G-Nutritional, an indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement with Vitaquest International, LLC ("Vitaquest") to operate a newly formed limited liability company for the purpose of marketing and selling certain products principally related to wellness, vitamins and nutritional supplements (the "Products") using the name and likeness of George Foreman. G-Nutritional and Vitaquest entered into an Operating Agreement (the "Operating Agreement") for the newly formed limited liability company, Vita Ventures, under which G-Nutritional and Vitaquest are the sole members. Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, G-Nutritional has sole approval over matters relating to the selection of products and the use of the Foreman trade name.  G-Nutritional is therefore considered to hold a controlling interest over Vita Ventures.  G-Nutritional owns 50.1% of the membership interests of Vita Ventures and Vitaquest owns 49.9% of the membership interests of Vita Ventures. Additionally, as part of this transaction, G-Nutritional entered into a Trademark License and Service Agreement with Vita Ventures on September 7, 2006 under which Vita Ventures was granted a worldwide non-exclusive license to use the name and likeness of George Foreman in connection with the sale of the Products.  Vita Ventures acquires its inventory from our business partner and then resells it through their infomercial.  Vita Ventures produced an informercial to promote the Products, which aired for the first time during the fourth quarter of 2007.  Vita Ventures discontinued the sale of its products during the last quarter of 2008 and is currently contemplating marketing the Products again on a test basis through our infomercial.
 
On April 20, 2007, Ventures entered into an agreement with InStride LLC ("InStride"), Olen Rice and Paul Koester to operate a newly formed limited liability company named InStride Ventures, LLC for the purpose of manufacturing, marketing and selling therapeutic footwear using the name and likeness of George Foreman.  Ventures owns 50.1% of the membership interest of InStride Ventures, In Stride owns 47.9% of the membership interest of InStride Ventures and Messrs. Rice and Koester each own 1% of the membership interest of InStride Ventures.  Additionally, in connection with this transaction, Ventures entered into a License Agreement with InStride Ventures granting InStride Ventures a license to use the name and likeness of George Foreman in connection with the business activities of InStride Ventures.  Also, in accordance with the terms of an Exclusive Trademark License Agreement, InStride granted InStride Ventures a license to use certain trademarks owned by InStride in connection with the business activities of InStride Ventures.  Instride Ventures also acquires its inventory from our business partner and then resells it.  During the three months ended March 31, 2011, InStride Ventures recognized $8,570 of sales as a result of its agreements to supply therapeutic footwear using the name and likeness of George Foreman.
 
On June 12, 2007, Ventures granted KnowFat Franchise Company, Inc. ("KnowFat") a non-exclusive limited license to use the name and likeness of George Foreman in connection with the promotion of restaurants operated by KnowFat and its franchisees.  As consideration for use of the license, Ventures was granted 900,000 shares of common stock of KnowFat, half of which vested as of the closing date and half of which vests over the four year term of the license agreement.  In addition, Ventures has the potential to earn additional shares based on the number of franchises sold, as well as earning royalties based on KnowFat sales.  On December 18, 2007, KnowFat merged with and into a publicly traded company and now operates under the name Ufood Restaurant Group, Inc ("Ufood").  The number of KnowFat shares owned by Ventures was converted to 1,371,157 shares of Ufood as part of the transaction. These shares also vest over the four year term of the license agreement.  Ventures recognized licensing fees and royalties of $99,834 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Ventures entered into an Agreement with Foreman and NationsHealth on May 28, 2010 pursuant to which Foreman was appointed as NationsHealth’s exclusive spokesman for core diabetic supplies and Foreman granted NationsHealth an exclusive worldwide license to use the Foreman name, likeness, image and signature in connection with advertising to promote the core diabetic supplies.  Ventures has not recognized any licensing fees or royalty income for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
 
The Company's principal executive offices are in space leased by JMI from Seymour Holtzman and his wife and made available to the Company (without separate charge).   JMI, a company controlled by Mr. Holtzman, the Company's Co-Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, provides the Company with certain consulting, management and other services in exchange for a monthly fee of $4,167.  Since July 2008, these fees have been accruing but have not been paid.
 
Financial Position
 
At March 31, 2011, the Company had $147,369 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $170,996 at December 31, 2010.  The Company expects that its primary use of cash over the short-term will be for the payment of expenses to develop sales of the therapeutic footwear of InStride Ventures LLC, possible test marketing of the LifeShake, costs associated with the operation as a public company (legal, accounting, consulting, insurance, etc.) and the repayment of its interest and debt under the Notes.
 
The Company's success will depend primarily upon its ability to exploit and protect the intellectual property rights that Mr. Foreman has assigned to Ventures.  Furthermore, Ventures is limited in the use of Mr. Foreman’s name and likeness to the products and categories it has already developed. Ventures may not explore the further development of the Foreman brand into new products and categories and may only promote and develop those agreements it has under the InStride, Vita Ventures, Ufood, and NationsHealth.  These limitations may significantly impede our ability to grow, which would adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and business prospects.
 
Mr. Foreman has entered into numerous licensing, endorsement and other agreements over the last decade, and there can be no assurances that a third party will not assert a claim to some or all of the intellectual property rights that the Company believes have been assigned to Ventures.  In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("the "PTO") may cite preexisting trademark applications and registrations by third parties against, and prior trademark owners may oppose, future trademark applications by the Company or Ventures incorporating the George Foreman name.  Further, even if the Company or Ventures were able to obtain acceptance of its trademark applications by the PTO, a significant number of similar marks registered by, and licensed to, third parties could diminish the value and protectability of the intellectual property held by the Company or Ventures.

The non-default interest rate on the Notes is 8%. Interest expense on amortization on discount of the notes was $67,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and the discount was fully amortized when the notes matured in March 2010.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company has a history of net losses and negative cash flows from operations, mainly due to its inability to generate significant revenues to date.  These factors create an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $47,631 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.  This was the result of the net loss of $8,750, the amortization of deferred Ufood royalties of $96,304, and gains recognized from the sale of Ufood shares of $10,133, offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $11,111, a decrease in accounts receivable of $9,470, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $9,475, and an increase in interest payable of $37,500.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $2,810 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.  This was the result of amortization on discount of the notes of $67,000, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $80,129, a decrease in accounts receivable of $13,187, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $10,303, and an increase in interest payable of $16,000 offset by the net loss of $98,932 and licensing fees recognized from Ufood of $84,877.
 
Net cash provided by investing activities was $17,128 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as Ventures sold some of its shares of Ufood in order to generate working capital.
 
Net cash provided by (used in connection with) financing activities was $6,876 and $(4,947) for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company purchases its therapeutic footwear from InStride Shoes, one of our joint venture partners in InStride Ventures LLC.
 
The Company expects that its primary use of cash over the short-term will be for the payment of expenses to develop sales of the therapeutic footwear of InStride Ventures LLC, possible test marketing of the LifeShake, costs associated with the operation as a public company (legal, accounting, consulting, insurance, etc.) and the repayment of its interest and debt under the Notes.
 
On March 7, 2008, the Company sold 8% Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $800,000.  The Notes are convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The fair value of the detachable warrants was $640,000.  The buyers of the Notes included two entities that are controlled by Seymour Holtzman.  Mr. Holtzman was a director, chief executive officer and co-chairman of the board of directors of the Company until November 8, 2010.  The buyers also included Jeremy Anderson, the chief financial officer of the Company.  These notes were due on March 6, 2010 and the Company has not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date. The Company paid interest on the March 7, 2008 Notes through February 7, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $805,333, which was due on March 6, 2010.

Effective March 31, 2008, the Company sold newly issued 8% Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000.  The Notes are also convertible into units of the Company at a conversion price of $2.50 per unit, subject to adjustment.  Also, each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 and one common stock purchase warrant, exercisable at a price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment.  The fair value of the detachable warrants was $160,000.  These notes were due on March 31, 2010 and the Company has not paid any of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes that was due and payable upon the maturity date. The Company paid interest on the March 31, 2008 Notes through February 28, 2010 but is in default under the Notes due to its failure to pay principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $201,333, which was due on March 31, 2010.
 
Both the March 7, 2008 and the March 31, 2008 Notes are currently in default as the Notes were not paid on the maturity dates.  The default interest rate under these notes is fifteen percent (15%) and is payable until all of the Company’s obligations under the notes have been satisfied.  The total amount due under the Notes as of July 31, 2011 is $1,200,708.
 
On December 8, 2010, the Company issued checks to all holders of the notes, in an amount equal to three (3) months of interest at the pre-default rate, which amounted to $19,500.  Jeremy Anderson waived the interest payment due to him as a holder of one of the notes and thus was not paid any amount.  The Company currently remains in default on both the March 7, 2008 and March 31, 2008 Notes.
 
At March 31, 2011, the Company had $147,369 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $170,996 at December 31, 2010.  There is an uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
None.
 
ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Not applicable.
 
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Under the supervision and participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2011, based on the material weakness described below.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.  A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.

Based upon our evaluation, we believe that internal controls over the financial reporting process are not operating effectively because the Company is delinquent in its filing obligations with the SEC. Specifically; the Company has not been current in its filing obligations since it filed its 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. Our management presently is taking measures to address this delinquency; however, no assurance can be given in this regard.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
 
On December 13, 2010, Ventures received a letter from the minority members of InStride Ventures claiming that Ventures breached its fiduciary duty to InStride Ventures by entering into an Agreement with NationsHealth on May 28, 2010 and demanding that the Company protect and the rights of InStride Ventures. InStride Ventures had previously entered into a product distribution agreement with NationsHealth on September 4, 2008 and the minority members contend that the May 28, 2010 agreement bypassed the rights of InStride Ventures LLC.  No further action has been taken by the minority members of InStride Ventures. The Company believes that the claims set forth in the demand letter are without merit and will vigorously defend these claims.
