3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting period. The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as follows:
Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable
| Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions |
As of March 31, 2011, the Company held certain financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consisted of cash and cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities and restricted cash. The fair values of the cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash is determined based on quoted market prices in public markets and is categorized as Level 1. The investment in marketable securities is determined by the Company based on market prices other than quoted prices in active markets and is categorized as Level 2. These are also categorized as held-to-maturity securities. The Company does not have any financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as Level 3 and there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 except for the restricted cash which was transferred out in connection with the sale of Genesis.
The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial assets accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The Company has other financial instruments, such as receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities which have been excluded from the tables above. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying value of receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their fair values. The Company did not have any other financial instruments with the scope of the fair value disclosure requirements as of March 31, 2011.
Non-financial assets and liabilities, such as goodwill and long-lived assets, are accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These items are tested for impairment on the occurrence of a triggering event or in the case of goodwill, on at least an annual basis.
4. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLES

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740, "Income Taxes", ("ASC 740"). As a result of the implementation of ASC 740, the Company recognized no adjustment in the net liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. The Company believes there are no potential uncertain tax positions and all tax returns are correct as filed. Should the Company recognize a liability for uncertain tax positions, the Company will separately recognize the liability for uncertain tax positions on its balance sheet. Included in any liability for uncertain tax positions, the Company will also setup a liability for interest and penalties. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the current provision for income taxes.
The nominal statutory corporate rate in the Republic of Moldova is 0% for 2010 and 2009. Taxes are calculated in accordance with Moldovan regulations and are paid annually. Taxes are calculated on a separate entity basis since consolidation for tax purposes is not permitted in Moldova. There is no U.S. tax provision due to losses from U.S. operations during both 2010 and 2009. Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities. The principal item giving rise to deferred taxes is the net operating loss carryforward in the U.S. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company has set up a valuation allowance for losses for certain carryforwards that it believes may not be realized.

Overview
Organization
Emerging Media Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 3, 2003. The Company directs its operations through its subsidiary, ICS “Media Top Prim SRL” which owns the TNT Channel in Chisinau, Moldova. Following the sale of the Company’s interest in SC Genesis International S.A. in September 2010, and of its media subsidiaries in Moldova, IM “Media Alianta” SRL (formerly SC “Cabavarum” SRL), SA “Analytic Media Group”, ("AMG"), and ICS “Alkasar Media Services SRL, the Company’s primary activities are in radio and television broadcasting through the TNT Channel.
Sale of IM “Media Alianta” SRL, SA “Analytic Media Group” and ICS “Alkasar Media Services SRL
On February 2, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with the Company's major shareholder. The Agreement provided for the sale of the Company's following subsidiaries: IM Media Alianta SRL, SA Analytic Media Group and ICS Alkazar Media Services SRL, which included the Company's TV7 television channel. The Company received 4,800,000 shares of its common stock, valued at approximately $1,800,000, in exchange for the sale of these subsidiaries.
Termination of Exchange Agreement with Men’s Medical Corporation
On February 10, 2011, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), dated as of January 1, 2011, between the Company and Men’s Medical Corporation, a Florida corporation (“MMC”). In exchange for all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of MMC which were owned by Saddleworth Ventures, LLC, in turn owned by Chris Smith, we had agreed to issue to Mr. Smith 1,000 shares of a Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) of a class of preferred stock to be to be authorized. The Series A Preferred Stock would have been convertible into and voted as 25,000,000 shares of common stock, which would have effectively given control of our company to Chris Smith. On February 16, 2011, we filed an Information Statement on Schedule 14C with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the authorization of the class of Preferred Stock and for a 1-for-10 reverse split of our outstanding common stock. In connection with the Exchange Agreement, Chris Smith was appointed as a director and as our President and Chief Executive Officer. On May 31, 2011, our Board of Directors agreed with Chris Smith and MMC, effective immediately, to terminate the Exchange Agreement, to retransfer 100% of the outstanding shares of MMC to the stockholders of MMC and to void any rights of the stockholders of MMC to the 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock which were to have been issued in the exchange.
Both parties to the MMC transaction had concluded it was not in their best interests to proceed with closing the transaction, one primary reason being that MMC was unable to provide audited financial statements required for filing with the Commission, as required by the Exchange Agreement. In that it was terminated prior to completion of closing, the transaction between the Company and MMC is not reflected in the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011 included in this report, and had no effect on the Company’s results of operation or financial position for or as of the end of that period.
Sale of SC Genesis International S.A.

Trends Affecting our Business

| · | The Company's media business experienced increased competition from new TV channels during the first three months of 2011 that may affect future operations throughout 2011. |

The Company received 4,800,000 common shares of Emerging Media Holdings, valued at approximately $1,800,000. The shares are held as treasury shares. The Company will continue to operate its other media subsidiaries consisting of the "TNT" television channel.
During the first three months of 2011, the Company has funded its capital requirements primarily through operating activities. As of March 31, 2011 the Company had a cash balance of $27,511. This compares with a cash balance of $37,458 at December 31, 2010. The Company expects cash flow from operations to fund the Company’s media operating activities for the next twelve months.
The Company had a working capital surplus of approximately $246,000 and a stockholders’ equity of approximately $456,000 as of March 31, 2011. Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $10,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease is primarily attributable to net cash provided by operations of $2,598, net of purchases of equipment of $13,083.
Accounts receivable, net of allowances, were approximately $239,757 at March 31, 2011.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Foreign Currency Risk - Our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Because our revenue is reported in U.S. dollars, fluctuating exchange rates of the local currencies, when converted into U.S. dollars, may have an adverse impact on our revenue and income. We have not hedged foreign currency exposures related to transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. We do not engage in financial transactions for trading or speculative purposes.
Credit Risk - Our accounts receivables are subject, in the normal course of business, to collection risks. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices to protect against the adverse effects of collection risks. As a result we do not anticipate any material losses in this area.
ITEM 4T. Controls and Procedures.
As of March 31, 2011, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Certifying Officer”) conducted an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the Certifying Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Certifying Officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a timely basis in order to comply with the Company’s disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated there under.
Further, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the third fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
