DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
General
The Movie Studio, Inc. F/K/A Destination Television, Inc. (“the Company” or “DSTV” or the "Issuer”) is a publicly traded vertically integrated motion picture production company that develops, manufactures and distributes independent motion picture content for worldwide consumption on a multitude of devices.
The Movie Studio, Inc. operates as an integrated motion picture production and distribution company. It acquires, develops, manufactures, and distributes independent motion picture content for worldwide consumption in theatrical, video on demand, foreign sales, and on various media devices. The Movie Studio, Inc., through its network of movie theaters, exhibits critically acclaimed films, cultural programming, art films, documentaries, foreign language films, independent cinema, concerts and others. The company was formerly known as Destination Television, Inc. and changed its name to The Movie Studio, Inc. in November 2012. The Movie Studio, Inc. was founded in 1961 and is based in Hallandale Beach, Florida.
The Company is a broadcast media company that used its custom content and entertainment-based programming along with its proprietary technology to influence the purchasing decisions of millions of active consumers in targeted “away-from-home” leisure destinations.
The Company’s original core broadcast business was Bar TV, Gym TV, and Hotel TV, which were designed and implemented to focus on leisure destinations with entertaining and informative audio and video content, increasing the duration and frequency of consumer visits and duration of stay, generating incremental revenue and promoting the sale of specific products. The Company enabled advertisers and leisure/retailers to effectively and efficiently reach active consumers at the point of sale (POS) where most purchase decisions are made. In addition to influencing consumer behavior, the Company’s programming was proven to be successful in generating brand awareness and could create additional sales lift. The Company’s business motto was “Leisure Destinations driving traffic to Retail Locations.”
Over the years, the Company surveyed the media landscape, combining the best aspects of each medium into the DSTV’s business model, simultaneously applying it to a very unique physical space. In 2008, the US advertising industry consolidated, including digital signage space, because the industry did not provide a quantifiable measurement platform for its advertisers; at that time, The Company began to reorganize its business model. In 2009, The Company took the first steps in transitioning its core business operations into a new media platform, which included incorporating elements of its original media business model into its new business, The Movie Studio. In 2010, the Company took the next step, when it physically began transitioning its core business to the new platform. The Movie Studio platform consists of three verticals that operate synergistically with each other. Strategic Partner is the first of the three verticals. In this vertical, the Company enters into agreements with substantial asset partners, wherein these partners can promote their brand, product, or service through the Movie Studio, which can offer them, through the its vertical integration model, a variety of opportunities, as a result of their association with the movie business. Each partner agreement is crafted in the best interest of the client’s needs or objectives.
“Locations Pay Us” is the second vertical, wherein we get paid for filming a scene of our movie at the location of a client. The excitement generated from motion
picture production at given location can drive traffic to the client’s point of sale (POS); as a result, the Company and the client both benefit from this arrangement. In addition, the Company utilizes its win-a-part-in-a-movie contest at the location; it also provides digital plates to the client’s location, which can utilize the key art shot of the location as base artwork for web, print or television at no additional cost in perpetuity. Clients have reported that their locations have seen double digit increases in their margins on the night of the filming event. Product Placement is the third vertical. The motion picture product placement industry is a two-billion dollar industry; companies utilize this platform to create worldwide brand awareness for their brand, product or service, with the average movie impact of fifteen (15) years (in five-year distribution cycles). In addition, these companies provide us products that we utilize at movie events for PPG (on premise promotional giveaways); they also gain additional branding exposure in direct interaction with the brands exact demographic.
The value proposition for investors is in the bi-product of manufacturing of a major motion picture asset(s), which reduces capital expenses (CAP-X) by utilizing the vertical integration the manufacturing of the intellectual property (movie) asset. The completed movie then employs a significant expense to revenue ratio, by utilizing these metrics. The motion picture asset is ultimately licensed to seventy countries around the world (foreign market) and domestically in the traditional media outlet channels, movie theaters, television, DVD, pay cable, Video on Demand (VOD) mobile etc. In addition, the motion picture integrates a soundtrack, which creates an additional revenue stream for investors. The Company has proven the business model on all three verticals prior to occupying a 17,000 sq. ft. production studio in downtown Hollywood, Florida complete with a 5,000 sq. ft. 2 edit suites, complete motion picture manufacturing lighting and equipment, cameras, talent division, and in-house marketing. The Movie Studio has manufactured its first feature film production for Ventures Capital Partners, LLC. Is titled “Exposure” starring Corey Feldman and is currently in pre-production of the sequel “Double Exposure with Ventures Capital II, LLC,”and Pre-Production of "BAD ACTRESS" with Ventures Capital Partners III, LLC. In addition, The Movie Studio can generate additional revenue streams from studio rentals and music video production. The Company is currently fully operational and implementing its business model to scale the Companies operations in 2013 and beyond.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
Film Studio
The Movie Studio, Inc. is an entertainment or motion picture company that has its own studio facility that is used to make films, which is handled by the production company. Most of the companies in the entertainment industry have never own their own studios, but have rented space from other companies. There are also independently owned studio facilities, which have never produced a motion picture of their own because they are not entertainment companies or motion picture companies – they are companies who sell only studio space.
Beginnings
In 1893, Thomas Edison built the first movie studio in the United States when he constructed the Black Maria, a tarpaper-covered structure near his laboratories in West Orange, New Jersey, and asked circus, vaudeville, and dramatic actors to perform for the camera. He distributed these movies at vaudeville theaters, penny arcades, wax museums, and fairgrounds. The pioneering film studio was founded in New Rochelle, New York in 1909 by American theatrical impresario Edwin Thanhouser. The company produced and released 1,086 films between 1910 and 1917, successfully distributing them around the world. The first film serial ever, “Million Dollar Mystery,” was released by the Thanhouser Company in 1914. In the early 1900’s, companies started moving to Los Angeles, California. Although electric lights were by then widely available, none were yet powerful enough to adequately expose film; the best source of illumination for motion picture production was natural sunlight. Some movies were shot on the roofs of buildings in Downtown Los Angeles. Early movie producers also relocated to Southern California to escape Edison's motion picture patents company, which controlled almost all the patents relevant to movie production at the time. An independent filmis a professional film production resulting in a feature film that is produced mostly or completely outside of the major film studio system. In addition to being produced and distributed by independent entertainment companies, independent films are also produced and/or distributed by subsidiaries of major film studios. Independent films are sometimes distinguishable by their content and style and the way in which the filmmakers' personal artistic vision is realized. Usually, but not always, independent films are made with considerably lower film budgets than major studio films. Generally, the marketing of independent films is characterized by limited release, but can also have major marketing campaigns and a wide release. Independent films are often screened at local, national, or international film festivals before distribution (theatrical and/or retail release). An independent film production can rival a mainstream film production if it has the necessary funding and distribution.
Principal Products and Their Markets
Due to the proliferation of new mobile media platforms in society, The Movie Studio intends to enter into the personalized content & media space utilized by consumers via laptops, tablets, smartphone’s and new Digital Out-Of-Home (DOOH) devices as they are developed.
The Movie Studio intends to manufacture independent content that fits the marketplace void including indie movies with relevant movie stars and indie soundtracks with substantial fan bases that we can reach their demographic on-line and sell digital downloads direct to consumers with a minimum barrier to entry and minimum capital expenditures compared to traditional marketing forms of content delivery. In addition to traditional marketing platforms that we intend to sell and leverage as well, The Movie Studio intends to sell its content and where it’s available on all devices, mobile, I-Pad etc. for the personal user with the personal playlist of unique and indie content relevant to their interests applicable for the individual and their consumption. The Movie Studio is implementing its new proven vertically integrated revenue model:
(a) Strategic Partners in Motion Pictures.
(b) Locations Pay US a fee for placement in the movie, which can monetize our platform at their point of sale (POS).
(c) Product Placement: we receive a fee for product placement in a movie, product branding, and on premise promotional giveaways (PPG). In addition, the Product Placement client receives digital plates and the same benefits as Location Pay US a fee client receive (see (b) above).
(d) At the American Film Market in November 2011, the Company established significant motion picture arrangement for worldwide distribution, to provide investors an exit strategy for (1) their movie partnership investment units and (2) shareholdings in the Company.
In May 1, 2012, we have entered into an exclusive worldwide distribution agreement with Cinema Arts Entertainment, with minimum guarantees (MG’s) that sales will total $520,000 for the first 10 markets. As of March 1st, 2017 the Company has generated sales revenues disclosed in our financial statements. (As of November 27th 2017 the Company has not been successful on collecting on al the executed agreements that have been contacted for distribution of their motion pictures owned or licensed to the Company and could have a material impact on the Companies business model or continued operations.
(e) The completed movie then employs a significant expense to revenue proposition by utilizing these metrics and licenses the motion picture asset to seventy (70) countries around the world (foreign market) as well as domestically in traditional media outlet channels, movie theaters, television, DVD, pay cable, video on demand (VOD) mobile etc. In addition, the motion picture integrates a soundtrack that creates an additional revenue stream for investors.
In addition, the Company provides locations digital plates and green screen application for use in movies, commercials, for the location, web-applications and print that can significantly monetize the location, while 360-degree media branding at the location can be an applicator for the location in a variety of ways:

Distribution Methods Film distribution Methods
A distributor is a company or individual responsible for the marketing of a film. The distributor may set the release date of a film and the method by which a film is to be exhibited or made available for viewing: for example, directly to the public either theatrically or for home viewing DVD, Video on Demand (VOD), download, television programs through broadcast syndication,etc.). A distributor may do this directly, if the distributor owns the theaters or film distribution networks, or through theatrical exhibitors and other sub-distributors. A limited distributor may deal only with particular products, such as DVDs or Blu-ray, or may act in a particular country or market.
Theatrical distribution
If a distributor is working with a theatrical exhibitor, the distributor secures a written contract stipulating the amount of the gross ticket sales to be paid to the distributor by the exhibitor (usually a percentage of the gross) after first deducting a floor, which is called a house allowance (also known as the nut), collects the amount due, audits the exhibitor's ticket sales, as necessary, to ensure the gross reported by the exhibitor is accurate, secures the distributor's share of these
Proceeds, and transmits the remainder to the production company (or to any other intermediary, such as a film release agent). The distributor must also ensure that enough film prints are struck to service all contracted exhibitors on the contract-based opening day, ensure their physical delivery to the theater by the opening day, monitor exhibitors to make sure the film is in fact shown in the particular theater with the minimum number of seats and show times, and ensure the prints' return to the distributor's office or other storage resource also on the contract-based return date. In practical terms, this includes the physical production of film prints and their shipping around the world (a process that is beginning to be replaced by digital distribution) as well as the creation of posters, newspaper and magazine advertisements, television commercials, trailers, and other types of ads. The distributor is also responsible for ensuring a full line of advertising material is available on each film which it believes will help the exhibitor attract the largest possible audience, create such advertising, if it is not provided by the production company, and arrange for the physical delivery of the advertising items selected by the exhibitor at intervals prior to the opening day. If the distributor is handling an imported or foreign film, it may also be responsible for securing dubbing or subtitling for the film, and securing censorship or other legal or organizational approval for the exhibition of the film in the country/territory in which it does business, prior to approaching the exhibitors for booking. Depending on which studio is distributing the film, the studio will either have offices around the world, by themselves or partnered with another studio, to distribute films in other countries. If a studio decides to partner with a native distributor, upon release, both names will appear. The foreign distributor may license the film for a certain amount of time, but the studio will retain the copyright of the film.
Early Distribution Windows
Although there are numerous distribution techniques today, previous to the multichannel transition, studios and networks did not experiment with different distribution processes. Studios believed that the new distribution methods would cause their old methods of revenue to be destroyed. Within time, the development of new distribution did prove to be beneficial. The studios revenue was gained from myriad distribution windows. These windows created many opportunities in the industry and allowed networks to make a profit and eliminate failure. These new distribution methods benefited audiences that were normally too small to reach and expanded the content of television. With the new age of technology, networks accepted the fact that it was a consumer demand industry and accepted the new models of distribution.
Non-Theatrical Distribution
This term, used mainly in the British film industry, describes the distribution of feature films for screening to a gathered audience, but not in theaters at which individual tickets are sold to members of the public. The defining distinctions between a theatrical and a non-theatrical screening are that the latter has to be to a closed audience in some way, e.g. pupils of a school, members of a social club or passengers on an airliner, and that there can be no individual admission charge. Most non-theatrical screening contracts also specify that the screening must not be advertised, except within the group that is eligible to attend (e.g. in a membership organization’s newsletter or an in-flight magazine). The largest market for non-theatrical distribution is probably the airlines, followed by film societies. Non-theatrical distribution is generally handled by companies that specialize in this market, of which Film bank [1] is Britain's largest, representing the major Hollywood studios. Home video media is sold with a license that permits viewing in the home only (hence the copyright notice that appears at the start of many VHS tapes and DVDs, which states that the content must not be shown in oil rigs, prisons or schools). Until these technologies were widespread, most non-theatrical screenings were on 16 mm film prints supplied by the distributor. Today, the most common business model is for a distributor to sell the exhibitor a license that permits the legal projection of a copy of the film, which the exhibitor buys separately on a home video format. These licenses can either be
for individual, one-off screenings, or cover an unlimited number of screenings of titles represented by that distributor for a specified time period. The latter are often purchased by pubs and students' unions, to enable them to show occasional feature films on a TV in their bars.
Home Video Distribution
Some distributors only handle home video distribution or some sub-set of home video distribution such as DVD and/or Blu-ray distribution and now the fastest growing area is Video on Demand (VOD). The remaining home video rights may be licensed by the producer to other distributors or the distributor may sub-license them to other distributors.
If a distributor is going to distribute a movie on a physical format such as DVD, they must arrange for the creation of the artwork for the case and the face of the DVD and arrange with a DVD replicator to create a glass master to press quantities of the DVD. Today, some movie producers are using a process called DVD-on-demand. In DVD-on-demand, a company will burn a DVD-R (a process called duplication) when a copy of the DVD is ordered, and then ship in to the customer. A distributor may also maintain contact with wholesalers, who sell and ship DVDs to retail outlets as well as online stores and arrange for them to carry the DVD. The distributor may also place ads in magazines and online and send copies of the DVD to reviewers.
The newest area Video on Demand (VOD) is expected to grow as a result of new media devices, mobile phones, PDA’s, tablets and I-Pads as additional ways individuals consume content and has antiquated all forms of physical distribution technologies including DVD.
The New Hollywood/Foreign Distribution:
In the past, big studios have not always used analysis, analytics, metrics or measurement; but that is not true any longer. Companies like The Movie Studio use a new Hollywood approach that is vastly more technical than preparing an analysis of how many people actually attend the theater as a result of buying a ticket. Their approach now accounts for thousands of variables, from the stars of a movie to its release date to the type of media used in production, and compares each of those variables to nearly every film ever made with at least one of the same attributes. It takes four people just to operate the program that governs their approach. New Hollywood companies employ a movie-rejection system, not a movie-picking system, while the data-intensive approach operates on a new paradigm of new media marketing and buzz worthy elements intertwined into the infrastructure of the movie. Big studios are swinging for the fences, and they lose money on percent of the movies they make; they don’t have a hedge against those losses, so they need the one or two franchise movies each year to make up for the money losers. New Hollywood studios have hedges; they make movies that people will love, but also on a financially based system. They don’t take huge risks.
The New Hollywood studios can make money without a blockbuster on its slate, if it controls upfront costs and has unique arrangements with film distributors on the back-end. Unlike most major studios, who own their own distribution companies, New Hollywood studios seek relationships with over 117 distributors around the globe, each of which could come under contract to buy any movie the studio makes at a preset percentage of the film’s budget. In return, the distributors are guaranteed a piece of the back-end revenue for each movie. For New Hollywood studios, the structure is a safety net for films that underperform, a safety net the major studios don’t have.

[FORMERLY DESTINATION TELEVISION, INC]
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended
June 30, 2019
Note 1 – Description of Business
GENERAL
The Movie Studio, Inc. F/K/A Destination Television, Inc. (“the Company" or “DSTV” or the "Registrant”) is a publicly traded vertically integrated motion picture production company that develops, manufactures and distributes independent motion picture content for worldwide consumption on a multitude of devices.
The Movie Studio, Inc. operates as an integrated motion picture production and distribution company. It acquires, develops, manufactures, and distributes independent motion picture content for worldwide consumption in theatrical, video on demand, foreign sales, and on various media devices. The Movie Studio, Inc., through its network of movie theaters, exhibits critically acclaimed films, cultural programming, art films, documentaries, foreign language films, independent cinema, concerts and others. The company was formerly known as Destination Television, Inc. and changed its name to The Movie Studio, Inc. in October 2012. The Movie Studio, Inc. was founded in 1961 and is based in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
The Company is a broadcast media company that used its custom content and entertainment-based programming along with its proprietary technology to influence the purchasing decisions of millions of active consumers in targeted “away-from-home” leisure destinations.
The Company’s original core broadcast business was Bar TV, Gym TV, and Hotel TV, which were designed and implemented to focus on leisure destinations with entertaining and informative audio and video content, increasing the duration and frequency of consumer visits and duration of stay, generating incremental revenue and promoting the sale of specific products. The Company enabled advertisers and leisure/retailers to effectively and efficiently reach active consumers at the point of sale (POS) where most purchase decisions are made. In addition to influencing consumer behavior, the Company’s programming was proven to be successful in generating brand awareness and could create additional sales lift. The Company’s business motto was “Leisure Destinations driving traffic to Retail Locations.”
Over the years, the Company surveyed the media landscape, combining the best aspects of each medium into the DSTV’s business model, simultaneously applying it to a very unique physical space. In 2008, the US advertising industry consolidated, including digital signage space, because the industry did not provide a quantifiable measurement platform for its advertisers; at that time, The Company began to reorganize its business model. In 2009, The Company took the first steps in transitioning its core business operations into a new media platform, which included incorporating elements of its original media business model into its new business, The Movie Studio. In 2010, the Company took the next step, when it physically began transitioning its core business to the new platform. The Movie Studio platform consists of three verticals that operate synergistically with each other. Strategic Partner is the first of the three verticals. In this vertical, the Company enters into agreements with substantial asset partners, wherein these partners can promote their brand, product, or service through the Movie Studio, which can offer them, through the its vertical integration model, a variety of opportunities, as a result of their association with the movie business. Each partner agreement is crafted in the best interest of the client’s needs or objectives.
“Locations Pay Us” is the second vertical, wherein we get paid for filming a scene of our movie at the location of a client. The excitement generated from motion picture production at given location can drive traffic to the client’s point of sale (POS); as a result, the Company and the client both benefit from this arrangement. In addition, the Company utilizes its win-a-part-in-a-movie contest at the location; it also provides digital plates to the client’s location, which can utilize the key art shot of the location as base artwork for web, print or television at no additional cost in perpetuity. Clients have reported that their locations have seen double digit increases in their margins on the night of the filming event.
Product Placement is the third vertical. The motion picture product placement industry is a two-billion-dollar industry; companies utilize this platform to create worldwide brand awareness for their brand, product or service, with the average movie impact of fifteen (15) years (in five-year distribution cycles). In addition, these companies provide us products that we utilize at movie events for PPG (on premise promotional giveaways); they also gain additional branding exposure in direct interaction with the brands exact demographic.
The value proposition for investors is in the bi-product of manufacturing of a major motion picture asset(s), which reduces capital expenses (CAP-X) by utilizing these vertical in the manufacturing of the intellectual property (movie) asset. The completed movie then employs a significant expense to revenue ratio, by utilizing these metrics. The motion picture asset is ultimately licensed to seventy (70) countries around the world (foreign market) and domestically in the traditional media outlet channels, movie theaters, television, DVD, pay cable, Video on Demand (VOD) mobile etc. In addition, the motion picture integrates a soundtrack, which creates an additional revenue stream for investors. The Company has proven the business model on all three verticals prior to occupying a 17,000 sq. ft. production studio in downtown Hollywood, Florida complete with a 5,000 sq. ft. 2 edit suites, complete motion picture manufacturing lighting and equipment, cameras, talent division, and in-house marketing. The Movie Studio has produced its first feature film production for Ventures Capital Partners I, LLC. Is titledExposure starring Corey Feldman and was in pre-production of the sequelDouble Exposure with Ventures Capital II, LLC, and consolidated the content for future application and completion of BAD ACTRESS with Ventures Capital Partners III, LLC. In addition, The Movie Studio can generate additional revenue streams from music video and broadcast commercial production. The Company is currently fully operational and implementing its business model to scale the Companies operations in 2013 and beyond. The Company changed its name of operations from Destination Television, Inc. to The Movie Studio, Inc. In November 2012 and received a new stock symbol (MVES) in July, 2014. As of 2018, The Movie Studio currently has three (3) releases Exposure, BAD Actress and Dancing on the Edge on Amazon Prime and one release “Drunk Boat” on Showtime.

Note 2 – Summary of significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated annual financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Movie Studio, Inc. (Formerly Destination Television, Inc.), a Delaware corporation, and wholly owned subsidiary Destination Television, Inc., a Florida corporation. All significant inter-company account balances and transactions between the Company and its subsidiary have been eliminated in consolidation.
Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360Property, Plant, and Equipment,the Company records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. There were no impairment charges during the twelfth month quarter ended as of June 30, 2019.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 825,Financial Instruments, approximate their carrying amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition at June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, and the related statements of operations, and statements of cash flows for the twelfth months period then ended.
Revenue Recognition
:
In accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 605,Revenue Recognition,the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Note 2 – Summary of significant Accounting Policies Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740Income Taxes,which requires accounting for deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax asset and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on the enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce the deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and may file income tax returns in various U.S. state and local jurisdictions. Generally, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities for years before 2009. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement de-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in the Company recording a tax liability that would reduce net assets. This policy also provides guidance on thresholds, measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial statement comparability among different entities. It must be applied to all existing tax positions upon initial adoption and the cumulative effect, if any, is to be reported as an adjustment to stockholder’s equity as of June 30, 2019. Based on its analysis, the Company has determined that the adoption of this policy did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption. However, management’s conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
Comprehensive Income
The Company complies with FASB ASC Topic 220,Comprehensive Income,which establishes rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components. FASB ASC Topic 220 requires the Company’s change in foreign currency translation adjustments to be included in other comprehensive loss, and is reflected as a separate component of Stockholder’s Equity.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company complies with FASB ASC Topic 718Compensation – Stock Compensation, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. FASB ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). No compensation costs are recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments (unless observable market prices for the same or similar instruments are available). If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. No employee stock options or stock awards vested during the twelfth month quarter then ended as of June 30, 2019 ASC 718.
Nonemployee awards
The fair value of equity instruments issued to a nonemployee is measured by using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the date of either: (i) a commitment for performance by the nonemployee has been reached; or (ii) the counterparty’s performance is complete. Expenses related to nonemployee awards are generally recognized in the same period as the Company incurs the related liability for goods and services received. The Company recorded no stock compensation of approximately during the twelfth month quarter then ended June 30, 2019 related to consulting services.
Amending the guidance to remove this rebuttable does not imply ignoring these changes as subsequent events either, however the Update attempts to analyze whether estimating the fair value measurement reflects information and assumptions market participants have considered at the balance sheet date.
Unamortized film costs shall be tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the fair value of the film may be less than its unamortized costs. The following are examples of these kinds of changes or events;
| a. | Ad adverse change in the expected performance of a film prior to release. |
| b. | Actual costs substantially in excess of budgeted costs. |
| c. | Substantial delays in completion or release schedules. |
| d. | Changes in release plans, such as a reduction in the initial release pattern. |
| e. | Insufficient funding or resources to complete the film and to market it effectively. |
| f. | Actual performance subsequent to release failing to meet that which had been expected prior to release. |
In the event an entity assesses the fair value is less than unamortized costs, the entity shall determine the fair value of the film and write-off to the income statement the amount of the unamortized costs that exceed the capitalized costs of the film down to its fair value at the close of its fiscal year rather than as a change in accounting estimate. The entity shall not restore the costs in any subsequent accounting periods. The Company has adopted these accounting pronouncements issued since December 31, 2007 through June 30, 2019, none of which had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10,Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – Overall (“ASC 105-10”), which was formerly known as SFAS 168. ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards and all other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis of conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.
ASU 2011-04 In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-14,Fair Value Measurement(Topic 820). This Update will improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The amendments in this Update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs and they explain how to measure fair value and they do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The amendments in this Update apply to all reporting entities that are required or permitted to measure or disclose the fair value of an asset, a liability, or an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity in the financial statements. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have any material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASC 480, In March of 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update,Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity; primarily originated from FAS 150 and related interpretations. This subtopic establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The guidance applies to freestanding financial instruments, thus reinforcing the importance of this determination.
The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its results of operation, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Loss per Common Share
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260,Earnings per Share.Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share incorporates the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents on an average basis during the period.
Adapted Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In October of 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 926-20-35-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 926) - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (Amendments to Accounting Standards Codification), as a basis for that is used to assess impairment of unamortized film costs, an entity should include in a valuation model using assumptions that market participants would have made about uncertainty in timing and amount of cash flows as of the measurement date. To the extent that uncertainties are resolved with new information that becomes known after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued, such effects should not be incorporated into the fair value measurement as of the balance sheet date unless such market participants would have made such assumptions.
The objective of this Update is to provide information that is more useful to present and potential investors, creditors, and other capital market participants in making rational investment, credit, and other resource allocation decisions. Thus, the Task Force concluded these amendments will reduce existing inconsistencies in the testing of the impairment of unamortized film costs and improve financial reporting information.
Note 3 – Going Concern
The accompany financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assume that The Movie Studio, Inc. will continue in operation for at least one year and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.
Several conditions cast doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10.773 million as of June 30, 2019, has limited cash available for payment of operating expenses, no source of revenue, and requires additional financing in order to finance its business activities as a going concern. The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including but not limited to continued progress in the pursuit of business opportunities. The Company is actively pursuing alternative financing and has discussions with various third parties, although no firm commitments have been obtained.
