NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

OCTOBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

 

NOTE 1 – CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results and operations and cash flows at October 31, 2017 and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s April 30, 2017 and 2016 audited financial statements filed on Form 10K on August 15, 2017. The results of operations for the periods ended October 31, 2017 and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

 

Organization, Nature of Business and Trade Name

 

On October 31, 2011 (the “Closing Date”), China Advanced Technology acquired Goliath Film and Media International, a California corporation, by issuing 47,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, constituting 70.1% of the outstanding shares after giving effect to their issuance and the cancellation of 15,619,816 shares held by China Advanced Technology’s prior control person. Immediately following the Closing, 67,100,000 shares were issued and outstanding. On the Closing Date, the name of China Advanced Technology was changed to Goliath Film and Media Holdings (“Goliath”, “GFMH”, or “the Company”). All share numbers herein have been adjusted for an eight-for-1 forward stock split affected as of the Closing Date. The forward stock split was reflected in the trading market on February 13, 2012. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in which Goliath Film and Media International is deemed to be the accounting acquirer, and the prior operations of Goliath (formerly China Advanced Technology) are consolidated for accounting purposes. Since Goliath had no operations, assets, or liabilities as of the Closing, no audit of that entity was required under the materiality thresholds of Regulation S-X Rule 8-04.

 

The Company is engaged in the distribution of motion pictures and digital content.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires 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 revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred.

 

Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

OCTOBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable, if any, are carried at the expected net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts, when determined, will be based on management’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivables. If there were a deterioration of a major customer’s creditworthiness, or actual defaults were higher than historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of the amounts due to us could be overstated, which could have a negative impact on operations.

 

The Company currently does not have any accounts receivable. The above accounting policies will be adopted upon the Company carrying accounts receivable.

 

Films and Televisions Costs

 

The Company capitalizes production costs for films produced in accordance with ASC 926-20, “Entertainment-Films - Other Assets - Film Costs”. Accordingly, production costs are capitalized at actual cost and then charged against revenue quarterly as a cost of production based on the relative fair value of the film(s) delivered and recognized as revenue. The Company evaluates its capitalized production costs annually and limits recorded amounts by its ability to recover such costs through expected future sales. There was an impairment charge of $44,918 for fiscal year ending April 30, 2017. There was no amortization expense or impairment for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Film production costs include the unamortized costs of films in progress which are being produced by the Company.

 

For films produced by the Company, capitalized costs include all direct production costs and production overhead.

 

Costs of producing films are amortized using the individual-film-forecast method, whereby these costs are amortized and participations and residuals costs are accrued in the proportion that current year’s revenue bears to management’s estimate of ultimate revenue at the beginning of the current year expected to be recognized from the exploitation, exhibition or sale of the films. Ultimate revenue includes estimates over a period not to exceed ten years following the date of initial release of the motion picture.

 

Film production costs are stated at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. The valuation of film production costs are reviewed on a title-by-title basis, when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of a film is less than its unamortized cost. During the three and six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded no impairment charges.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenues in accordance with ASC 926-605, “Entertainment Films, Revenue Recognition”.

 

Under ASC 926-605, five conditions must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) the film is complete and has been delivered, (iii) the license period has begun, (iv) the price is fixed or determinable, and (v) collection is reasonably assured. The Company provides for an allowance for doubtful account based history and experience considering economic and industry trends. The Company does not have any off-Balance Sheet exposure related to its customers.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the distributor confirms to the Company that the film has been delivered to the distributor with all technical and document deliveries received, waived or deferred and the film has been entered into the distributor’s rights system.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising expenses are recorded as general and administrative expenses when they are incurred. There was no advertising expense for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Research and Development

 

All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. There was no research and development expense for the three months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Income tax

 

We account for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

The Company uses fair value measurements for determining the valuation of derivative financial instruments payable in shares of its common stock. This primarily involves option pricing models that incorporate certain assumptions and projections to determine fair value. These require management’s judgment.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in quarterly reports as well as in annual reports. For the Company, this statement applies to certain investments and long-term debt. Also, the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.

 

Various inputs are considered when determining the value of the Company’s investments and long-term debt. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).

 

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

 

The Company’s adoption of FASB ASC Topic 825 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. The Company had no financial assets and/or liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at October 31, 2017, assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short term nature.

 

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion. For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment. As of October 31, 2017, the Company had no assets other than prepaid expenses, cash, and capitalized film production costs.

Basic and diluted earnings per share

 

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted Earnings per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of common stock that may be issued as a result of the following types of potentially dilutive instruments:

 

Warrants,

 

Employee stock options, and

 

Other equity awards, which include long-term incentive awards.

 

The FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires the Company to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution.

 

Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the time of issuance, and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same as there were no potentially dilutive instruments for the three and six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Concentrations, Risks, and Uncertainties

 

The Company had one customer, Mar Vista Entertainment, that accounted for 100% of total revenue in the three and six months ended October 31, 2016. The Company had no customers in the three and six months ended October 31, 2017 that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant. We apply this statement prospectively. Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by ASC 718. ASC No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”) defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the ASC 505.

 

Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We evaluate financial instruments using the guidance provided by ASC 815 and apply the provisions thereof to the accounting of items identified as derivative financial instruments not indexed to our stock.

 

NOTE 3 - RECENTLY ENACTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Additionally, the Company received two on screen credits as Executive Producer as well as receiving credit on all advertising, publicity and packaging of the motion picture.

NOTE 6 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have significant cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern.

 

Under the going concern assumption, an entity is ordinarily viewed as continuing in business for the foreseeable future with neither the intention nor the necessity of liquidation, ceasing trading, or seeking protection from creditors pursuant to laws or regulations. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are recorded on the basis that the entity will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

GOLIATH FILM AND MEDIA HOLDINGS

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

OCTOBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

During the next year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the payment of expenses associated with reviewing or investigating any potential business ventures. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.

 

Historically, the Company has relied upon internally generated funds and funds from the sale of shares of stock to finance its operations and growth. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon its and its shareholders.

 

In the past year, the Company funded operations by using cash proceeds received through the issuance of common stock. For the coming year, the Company plans to continue to fund the Company through debt and securities sales and issuances, focus on a possible joint venture or merger until the company generates revenues through the operations of such merged company or joint venture as stated above.

Description of Business

 

Background

 

The Company was incorporated in Nevada on February 16, 2010 under the name “China Advanced Technology” as the successor by merger to Vitalcare Diabetes Treatment Centers, Inc. (“Vitalcare”). In February and March 2010, Vitalcare underwent a holding company reorganization under Delaware law, pursuant to which it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vitalcare Holding Corporation, and Vitalcare, together with its assets and liabilities, was sold to a non-affiliated third party. Vitalcare Holding Corporation subsequently reincorporated in Nevada by merger into China Advanced.

 

Vitalcare was in the business of administering medical clinics specializing in diabetes treatment. It was the successor to Network Financial Services, Inc. (“Network”), which went public in an underwritten offering in 1987. Network was engaged in mortgage origination, and changed its name to Westmark Group Holdings (“Westmark”) in 1993 in connection with the acquisition of Westmark Mortgage from Primark Corporation. Westmark ceased operations at some time in 2006, and in 2006 ceased filing reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The corporate entity was thereafter known as Viking Consolidated, Inc. (2006), Tailor Aquaponics World Wide, Inc. (2007) and Diversified Acquisitions (2007) until it entered the medical clinic business in early 2008. The Company has no information regarding any business activities from 2006 after the mortgage origination business closed, to early 2008.

 

On October 25, 2011, Goliath Film and Media International, a California corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which Goliath Film and Media International was acquired by China Advanced Technology. Prior to the acquisition, our principal operations consisted of internet marketing, and were conducted through a wholly owned subsidiary, Live Wise, Inc. Live Wise was disposed of on October 31, 2011 for cancellation of debt and shares described below. At the Closing Date, there were no assets or liabilities on China Advanced Technology’s balance sheets.

 

The transaction closed on October 31, 2011 (the “Closing Date”). On the Closing Date China Advanced Technology acquired Goliath Film and Media International by issuing 47,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, constituting 70.1% of the outstanding shares after giving effect to their issuance and the cancellation of 15,619,816 shares held by China Advanced Technology’s prior control person. Immediately following the Closing, 67,100,000 shares were issued and outstanding. On the Closing Date, the name of China Advanced Technology was changed to Goliath Film and Media Holdings. All share numbers herein have been adjusted for an eight-for-1 forward stock split affected as of the Closing Date. The forward stock split was reflected in the trading market on February 13, 2012.

Overview

 

Goliath Film and Media Holdings, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Goliath Film and Media International and Goliath Movie Partners 1, LLC (collectively, “Goliath” or the “Company”), develops, produces and licenses for distribution, domestically and internationally, quality digital content with an emphasis on “niche” markets of the feature motion picture and television content segments of the entertainment industry, such as, without limitation, education, faith-based, horror and socially responsible minority content. Goliath does not intend to engage in domestic theatrical distribution of motion pictures to any significant extent.

 

In qualified cases, Goliath will develop screenplays that will be outsourced to an independent entity for production, but will be licensed for distribution through the Company. Also, in certain cases Goliath will produce content that is tied to working with an established distributor that provides an advance or minimum guarantee for the production of a project that will be licensed by the participating distributor. Goliath plans to produce content and to distribute domestically and internationally, through a wide distribution network which includes major international theatrical exhibitors, and other distributors and television networks. We plan to utilize corporate sponsorships as a means of reducing the costs of advertising and marketing in distribution. Further, we may augment our marketing efforts with a limited and strategically focused advertising campaign in traditional “print” media with press releases targeted specifically toward standard entertainment industry trade journals and publications on an “as needed” basis as well as the inclusion of targeted “social media” campaigns.

 

Goliath’s revenue model includes receiving revenue from distribution fees. A limited number of its content properties include projects developed and produced by Goliath and those produced by an independent third party production entity.

 

Questions and Answers

 

What is your business?

 

We develop, produce and distribute motion pictures and digital content. At this time we do not intend to engage in theatrical releases of motion pictures, due to the high up- front costs of advertising and marketing theatrically. However, in some specific cases the company will consider theatrical releases based upon a “four wall” limited release delivery that will be focused on targeted niche audiences.

 

Distribution Rights

 

The Company has the following distribution rights, with previous distribution contracts expiring. The Company is focusing on its production side of its business at the present time with the exception of the following films listed below:

 

On February 13, 2012, the Company announced that it has acquired the distribution rights to the following motion pictures: Seducing Spirits, The Perfect Argument, Marina Murders, Film Struggle, Divorce in America, A Wonderful Summer, The Truth About Layla, Living with Cancer, and The Biggest Fan. Under the distribution agreements, Goliath will receive 30% of the gross revenues for each picture it distributes. In general, the Company’s distribution contracts cover both domestic and international licensing agreements; however, for the picture The Biggest Fan, the Company obtained limited distribution rights. No revenue has been recognized to date.

 

Production Agreements

 

On March 4, 2016, we signed a distribution agreement with Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC to distribute a feature length motion picture currently completed. Per the agreement, we received $125,000 in advance payments per an agreed delivery schedule for providing distribution rights on the motion picture “Bridal Bootcamp” a romantic comedy movie produced by Goliath for delivery to Mar Vista Entertainment LLC for distribution. Additionally, Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC will receive 35% of the gross proceeds for a period of 25 years on the motion picture. As of October 31, 2016, the Company has received $125,000 of the advance payments. Bridal Boot Camp was completed in October 2016 resulting in the recognition of the advance payments as revenue of $125,000 in October 2016. Mar Vista is distributing this film.

 

On September 18, 2015, we signed a distribution agreement with Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC to distribute a feature length motion picture currently completed. Per the agreement, we received $125,000 in advance payments per an agreed delivery schedule for providing distribution rights on the motion picture “Merry Exes” retitled “Girlfriends of Christmas Past” a Christmas holiday movie produced by Goliath and delivered to Mar Vista Entertainment LLC. for distribution. Additionally, Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC will receive 35% of the gross proceeds for a period of 25 years on the motion picture. As of July 31, 2016, we have received $125,000 of the advance payments. “Merry Exes” “Girlfriends of Christmas Past was completed June 6, 2016 resulting in the recognition of the advance payments as revenue of $125,000 in June 2016.

On May 20, 2015, we signed a distribution agreement with Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC to distribute a feature length motion picture currently completed by us and being licensed by Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC. Per the agreement, we received $175,000 in advance payments per an agreed delivery schedule for providing distribution rights on the motion picture “Terror Birds” a science fiction movie produced by Goliath and delivered to Mar Vista Entertainment LLC. for distribution. Additionally, Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC will receive 30% of the gross proceeds for a period of 25 years on the film. As of April 30, 2016, the Company had received $175,000 of the advance payments. Terror Birds was completed December 14, 2015 resulting in the recognition of the advance payments as revenue of $175,000 in February 2016. Mar Vista is continuing to distribute this film.

 

On April 15, 2015 Goliath signed an agreement whereby the Company agreed to invest $15,000 to KKO Productions to produce a feature length motion picture known as “Forgiven”. Per the agreement Goliath will receive 15% of adjusted gross proceeds after its initial investment has been entirely recouped through adjusted gross proceeds. Additionally, the Company received two on screen credits as Executive Producer as well as receiving credit on all advertising, publicity and packaging of the motion picture. The investment of $15,000 presented in other assets on the balance sheet has not yet been repaid, due to the fact that no revenues will be generated until this motion picture’s released.

 

What is the timeline for your activities during the next 12 months?

 

Over the next 90 days to one year, our efforts will be concentrated on developing and producing content with distributors for licensing by them of at least three projects.

 

What is this going to cost you?

 

We expect that producing the aforementioned content will cost approximately $150,000 per project, however licensing and distribution will be handled by an experienced distributor for a fee of anywhere from 30 – 35% and the costs of advertising and marketing will be handled by them and charged against gross distribution licensing proceeds.

 

Why are these motion pictures not being distributed already?

 

The motion pictures that are being produced by the Company and distributed by Mar Vista Entertainment, LLC take anywhere from six to nine months from completion of production and delivery to obtain licensing agreements.

 

Generically, the main reason why good, quality motion pictures are not distributed is that the production of a motion picture requires money and creativity, and marketing a motion picture requires an entirely different set of skills. Many people dream of making a movie; few aspire to distribute them. We estimate that there are in excess of 10,000 such motion pictures “gathering dust.” There also have been and continue to be substantial tax incentives for motion picture production in many States and international Territories, so that many producers do not need to depend on successful marketing in order to find investors for their projects. A secondary factor is the difficulty of finding a reputable distributor. We think that our management has an excellent reputation in the industry and we will be able to obtain distribution rights for content. Finally, many distributors as well as buyers do not have an interest in niche market films, because they see the market as limited. Goliath sees the problem to be, rather, there is no market merely because no one has assembled a critical mass of films for these niches. Most participants in the motion picture industry are based in “Hollywood” and the major coastal metropolitan areas. Our “faith-based” films especially are targeted toward the “Bible Belt” and the “Flyover Country”: places that the industry has consistently overlooked.

 

Why are you able to identify and acquire these motion pictures and educational videos?

 

After attending all the major content acquisition markets around the world over the last three years, our Staff has developed relationships with numerous quality filmmakers who need assistance in marketing and distributing their product. Goliath has also developed vital relationships with many of the major content distributors and networks. Many of the filmmakers have requested the Company’s assistance in marketing and distributing their product. Goliath will continue to pursue the marketing and distribution of product that is demanded in the marketplace and desired by major aggregators, distributors, networks and studios.

 

So how are you different than Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu, to name a few? How can you compete with them? They have a lot of money and name recognition. Why wouldn’t they jump into your niches?

 

As a content provider we are not competing with these entities but rather are working on providing them with quality content. As an example, NETFLIX has such a high demand for programming content, they are spending in excess of $5 billion this year for the acquisition of completed programming as well as for the development of original content by them. Therefore, as is mentioned, part of their resources are directed toward acquiring content and part is targeting in-house” and joint venture productions of quality content. This content will be targeted to their subscription base on a domestic and international level.

 

15
 

 

There are a number of quality content producers that work with the major networks and content distributors, Goliath is moving toward becoming one of these content providers. We believe there exists significant opportunities for our company in that the demand for programming is increasing almost exponentially. Irrespective of the platform for viewing by the consumer/subscriber, the demand for quality content is continuing to expand. As an example there are currently, approximately 416 original scripted programs being aired in the entire television universe – a cancellation rate of 10% reflects a number that represents the entire programming universe in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s. The upward trend is ongoing, which is where we see an opportunity for Goliath to provide product to reach many components of the overall market.

 

Don’t cable and satellite networks already offer specialty channels like TBN (for faith based) and BET (Black Entertainment Television (for the African-American Community)?

 

As mentioned above about NETFLIX, even though these channels maybe in niche markets they must expand the type, genre and format of the content that they are showing in order to remain viable, therefore the opportunity to assist them by providing quality programming is ongoing and expanding.

 

What other niches are you looking at entering?

 

We believe that there is an increasing and ongoing trend in home entertainment in servicing niches. Many viewers have cable or satellite service with hundreds of channels, but view only a few channels that cater to their particular interests. One significant type of niche we are targeting are the numerous immigrant groups in the United States. Other than Spanish speaking immigrants, coverage is scarce.

 

There are many interest groups that might be interested in specialty movies or programming. As an example in Hawaii and Southern California, for instance, surfing is quite popular, and there exists a huge body of surfing films which would be of interest.

 

What about ancillary markets?

 

We plan to incorporate advertising and marketing through social media and traditional outlets to the highest degree possible.

 

What films do you have now in inventory?

 

We presently have acquired the distribution rights to the following motion pictures: Seducing Spirits, The Perfect Argument, Marina Murders, Film Struggle, Divorce in America, A Wonderful Summer, The Truth About Layla, Living with Cancer, The Biggest Fan, Days of Redemption, On Borrowed Time, Tumbleweed, Virus X, Farewell, Buddies, and The Pit. Under the distribution agreements Goliath will receive 30% of the gross revenues for each of the pictures we distribute. In general, our distribution contracts cover both domestic and international licensing agreements; however, for the picture The Biggest Fan we obtained limited distribution rights.

 

How do these distribution rights work?

 

We enter into a Distribution Agreement for each motion picture. Terms may be perpetual or limited by years. The motion pictures that we are acquiring with the proceeds of these offerings will have a term of five years. We will generally obtain a fee of 20% to 30% of gross revenues. Licensing will be flexible for usage applications on a yearly or multi-year basis. Most markets, especially foreign territories have a tendency to continuously renew content licensing.

 

How many employees do you have? Do you have an office?

 

We have just 3 employees and we believe that is sufficient during the development, production and “content aggregation” phase of our development. Our administrative office is in Marina del Rey, California.

 

Do you have a website?

 

Our website is www.goliathfilmandmediainternational.com. We have a mirror site at www.goliathfilmandmedia.com

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and which require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed below. We also have other key accounting policies that are significant to understanding our results. For additional information, see Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

 

The following are deemed to be the most significant accounting policies affecting the Company.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Goliath Film and Media Holdings. All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires 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 revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred. The more significant estimates and assumptions by management include among others: Estimated revenue of films. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

 

Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenues in accordance with ASC 926-605, “Entertainment Films, Revenue Recognition”.

 

Under ASC 926-605, five conditions must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) the film is complete and has been delivered, (iii) the license period has begun, (vi) the price is fixed or determinable, and (v) collection is reasonably assured. The Company provides for an allowance for doubtful account based history and experience considering economic and industry trends. The Company does not have any off-Balance Sheet exposure related to its customers.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the distributor confirms to the Company that the film has been delivered to the distributor with all technical and document deliveries received, waived or deferred and the film has been entered into the distributor’s rights system.

 

Films and Televisions Costs

 

The Company capitalizes production costs for films produced in accordance with ASC 926-20, “Entertainment-Films - Other Assets - Film Costs”. Accordingly, production costs are capitalized at actual cost and then charged against revenue quarterly as a cost of production based on the relative fair value of the film(s) delivered and recognized as revenue. The Company evaluates its capitalized production costs annually and limits recorded amounts by its ability to recover such costs through expected future sales. There was an impairment charge of $44,918 for fiscal year ending April 30, 2017. There was no amortization expense or impairment for the three and ix months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

17
 

 

Film production costs include the unamortized costs of films in progress which are being produced by the Company.

 

For films produced by the Company, capitalized costs include all direct production costs, and production overhead.

 

Costs of producing films are amortized using the individual-film-forecast method, whereby these costs are amortized and participations and residuals costs are accrued in the proportion that current year’s revenue bears to management’s estimate of ultimate revenue at the beginning of the current year expected to be recognized from the exploitation, exhibition or sale of the films. Ultimate revenue includes estimates over a period not to exceed ten years following the date of initial release of the motion picture.

 

Film production costs are stated at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. The valuation of film production costs are reviewed on a title-by-title basis, when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of a film is less than its unamortized cost. During the three and six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded no impairment charges.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Stock Compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant. We apply this statement prospectively. Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by ASC 718. ASC No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”) defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the ASC 505.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We follow the provisions of ASC 820. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

We use fair value measurements for determining the valuation of derivative financial instruments payable in shares of its common stock. This primarily involves option pricing models that incorporate certain assumptions and projections to determine fair value. These require management’s judgment.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Effective beginning second quarter 2010, the FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in quarterly reports as well as in annual reports. For the Company, this statement applies to certain investments and long-term debt. Also, the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.

 

18
 

 

Various inputs are considered when determining the value of the Company’s investments and long-term debt. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
   
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).
   
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

 

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. The Company had no financial assets and/or liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at July 31, 2017, assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short term nature.

 

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion. For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment. As of July 31, 2017, the Company had no assets other than prepaid expenses and capitalized film production costs.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We have evaluated new accounting pronouncements that have been issued and are not yet effective for us and determined that there are no such pronouncements expected to have an impact on our future financial statements.

 

Plan of Operations

 

Although we had net income of $42,445 for the six months ended October 31, 2016, we have historical losses and an accumulated deficit of $625,441 as of October 31, 2017. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management plan to continue as a going concern revolves around its ability to execute its business strategy of distributing films, as well as raising the necessary capital to pay ongoing general and administrative expenses of the Company.

 

During the six months ended October 31, 2016, we entered into separate private placement memorandums with an affiliate shareholder under which we issued 11,832,000 shares of our common stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, in exchange for $118,320. During the six months ended October 31, 2017, we entered into no private placement memorandums. The issuances were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, and the investor was sophisticated and familiar with our operations at the time of the issuance of the shares.

General – Overall, we had a decrease in cash of $1,919 in the six months ended October 31, 2017 resulting from cash used in operating activities of $1,919.

 

The following is a summary of our cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities during the periods indicated:

 

   Six Months Ended October 31, 
   2017   2016 
         
Cash at beginning of period  $2,468   $25,310 
Net cash used in operating activities   (1,919)   (144,513)
Net cash used in investing activities        
Net cash provided by financing activities       119,295 
Cash at end of period  $549   $92 

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,919 for the six months ended October 31, 2017 compared to net cash used in operations for the six months ended October 31, 2016 of $144,513 primarily due to a net loss of $23,757 for the six months ended October 31, 2017, offset partially by $21,838 in expenses that were paid by others on behalf of the Company.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0 for the six months ended October 31, 2017, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $119,295 for the six months ended October 31, 2016 primarily due to proceeds from issuance of common stock of $118,320 for the six months ended October 31, 2016.

 

Our cash needs in the year ending April 30, 2018 are estimated to be $200,000. This budget is based on the assumption that we will carry out one project at a time for which we will need about $50,000 in working capital; general and administrative expenses of $150,000 for the costs related to being public, and miscellaneous office expenses. We sold 30,852,250 shares for net proceeds of $328,855 in offerings conducted in fiscal years 2016 and 2015. As we move forward with our business plan we will need to raise additional capital either through the sale of stock or funding from shares and or officers and directors to cover our cash needs through the end of the 2017 fiscal year.
