(a)
Basis of presentation:
The disclosures contained in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the requirements of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for annual financial statements. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2007 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.

3. Deferred costs, investment and advances:
In June 2005, the Company signed a definitive Joint Venture Agreement (“JV Agreement”) with Sanlong Cultural Communication Co. Ltd. (“Sanlong”).

Jintu will continue Sanlong’s recently launched direct-to-consumer business of distributing educational newspapers and product extensions located in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, China. Under the JV Agreement, Lingo Media will invest approximately $365,000 (¥2,550,000 RMB) for its 51% share of Jintu. The closing is subject to government approval in China.
Pursuant to the June 2005 agreement, as at March 31, 2007 the Company advanced funds for working capital to Sanlong through a trust of $182,520, included in investment and advances, with a view to establishing Jintu and incurred $157,419 in expenditures, included in deferred costs, related to pre-operating costs. Upon commencement of the joint venture, the investment and advances will be converted into Lingo Media’s share of registered capital of the joint venture and these advances and investment is non refundable.
