RED ROCK PICTURES HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2009 AND 2008(UNAUDITED)
1. | NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Nature of Business
As used in this report, "Red Rock Pictures Holdings, Inc.", "the Company", "us”, “we," "our" and similar terms include Red Rock Pictures Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.
Red Rock Pictures, Inc. was incorporated on August 18, 2006 under the laws of the State of Nevada and was acquired by Red Rock Pictures Holdings Inc. on August 31, 2006. The Company engages in the business of developing, financing, producing and licensing feature-length motion pictures and direct response infomercials.
On June 6, 2008, the Company entered into a Stock for Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Studio Store Direct, Inc. (“SSD”) and all of the current SSD Shareholders. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the assets of SSD by issuing 11,000,000 restricted common shares in exchange for all the issued and outstanding shares of SSD. Further, SSD became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. With the addition of SSD, the Company also operates as a traditional infomercial production and distribution company. SSD has developed a patent pending process for embedding direct response programs directly onto motion picture DVD’s. Viewers can access virtual stores, offering related merchandise for purchase with the simple click of a mouse or by dialing a toll free number. SSD’s model provides a turnkey new revenue solution for major Hollywood studios and independent distributors.
On January 8, 2009, the Company announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire New York based ComedyNet.TV, Inc. (“ComedyNet”), a leader in multimedia comedic content distribution. The transaction was terminated on May 28, 2009 due to the ComedyNet’s failure to complete its obligations under the asset purchase agreement.
Basis of Presentation
Effective September 1, 2008, the Company determined that it has emerged from its development stage as is therefore no longer presenting development stage financial information as such.
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, Form 10Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2008. Operating results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future quarters or the year ending August 31, 2009.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses in the reporting periods. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to allowances for doubtful accounts, share-based compensation expense, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, litigation and other contingencies. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from television and film productions pursuant to American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 00-2, Accounting by Producers or Distributors of Films (“SOP 00-2”). The following conditions must be met in order to recognize revenue under SOP 00-2: (i) persuasive evidence of a sale or licensing arrangement exists; (ii) the program is complete and has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery; (iii) the license period of the arrangement has begun and the customer can begin its exploitation, exhibition or sale; (iv) the arrangement fee is fixed or determinable; and (v) collection of the arrangement fee is reasonably assured. Income from film productions is derived from foreign, home video and television sales of third-party films for which production and/or prints and advertising have been financed by the Company. A significant portion of participation income is paid to the Company based on the timetable associated with participation statements generated by third party processors, and is not typically known by the Company on a timely basis. This revenue is consequently not recognized until the amount is either known or reasonably estimable or until receipt of the statements from the third parties. When the Company is entitled to royalties based on gross receipts, revenue is recognized before deduction of fees, which are included as a component of cost of revenue. Cash received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria described above is recorded as deferred production revenue.
Production Costs for Feature Films
Production costs are accounted for pursuant to SOP No. 00-2. The cost of production for movies, including direct costs, production overhead and interest are capitalized and amortized using the individual-film-forecast method under which such costs are amortized for each program in the ratio that revenue earned in the current period for such program bears to management’s estimate of the ultimate revenues to be realized from all media and markets for such program. Management regularly reviews, and revises when necessary, its ultimate revenue estimates on a title-by-title basis, which may result in a change in the rate of amortization applicable to such title and/or a write-down of the value of such title to estimated fair value. These revisions can result in significant quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year fluctuations in film write-downs and rates of amortization. If a total net loss is projected for a particular title, the associated film and television costs are written down to estimated fair value. All exploitation costs, including advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred.
Production Costs for Infomercials
The cost of production for infomercials for our customers, including direct costs, production overhead and interest are capitalized and expensed upon delivery to our customers.
Valuation of Goodwill and other Intangible Assets
We review goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The provisions of FASB Statement No. 142 require that a two-step impairment test be performed on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the fair value of our reporting unit to its carrying value. Our reporting unit is consistent with the operating and reportable segment identified in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. We determine the fair value of our reporting unit using a combination of the income approach and market capitalization approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we must perform the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we must record an impairment charge equal to the difference.
Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future discounted cash flows. Under the market capitalization approach, valuation multiples are calculated based on operating data from publicly traded companies within our industry. Multiples derived from companies within our industry provide an indication of how much a knowledgeable investor in the marketplace would be willing to pay for a company. These multiples are applied to the operating data for the reporting unit to arrive at an indicated fair value. Significant management judgment is required in the forecasts of future operating results that are used in the estimated future discounted cash flow method of valuation. The estimates we have used are consistent with the plans and estimates that we use to manage our business. We base our fair value estimates on forecasted revenue and operating costs along with business plans. Our forecasts consider the effect of a number of factors including, but not limited to, the effect of the roll out of new products, securing new customers, the effect of the transition to a new contract manufacturer, the ability to reduce product costs and the impact of continued cost savings measures within operating expenses. As a result of these calculations, management determined that goodwill was impaired and the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed to measure the amount of the impairment, resulting in the recognition of impairment to goodwill and intangible assets of $829,928. No impairment losses were recognized during 2008, and we had no goodwill or other intangible assets remaining on our balance sheet at May 31, 2009.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS No. 123R). Under the fair value recognition provision of SFAS No. 123R, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of options and awards, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities. FSP No. FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8 requires enhanced disclosures about transfers of financial assets and interests in variable interest entities. The FSP was effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2008. Since the FSP requires only additional disclosures concerning transfers of financial assets and interests in variable interest entities, the adoption of the FSP did not affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In January 2009, the FASB issued FSP EITF 99-20-1, Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF No. 99-20. The FSP amends EITF No. 99-20, by eliminating the requirement that a holder’s best estimate of cash flows be based upon those that “a market participant” would use. Instead, the FSP requires that an other-than-temporary impairment be recognized as a realized loss through earnings when it is “probable” there has been an adverse change in the holder’s estimated cash flows from the cash flows previously projected, which is consistent with the impairment models in FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The FSP was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, and has been applied prospectively. The adoption of the FSP did not affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than Temporary Impairments. This FSP amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities and improves the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. The FSP is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements that adoption of the FSP will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements, however; the adoption will not affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That are Not Orderly. This FSP provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157 and includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The FSP is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this FSP; however, it believes the adoption will not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”). SFAS 165 requires entities to disclose the date through which they have evaluated subsequent events and whether the date corresponds with the release of their financial statements. Effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, SFAS 165 will become effective in the next reporting quarter. SFAS 165 should not have an impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS 168”). SFAS 168 will become the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), and related accounting literature. SFAS 168 reorganizes the thousands of GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. Also included is relevant Securities and Exchange Commission guidance organized using the same topical structure in separate sections. SFAS 168 will be effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009. This will have an impact on the Company’s financial statements since all future references to authoritative accounting literature will be references in accordance with SFAS 168.
The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced losses from operations since inception that raise substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company's existence is dependent upon management's ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems. Management anticipates the Company will attain profitable status and improve its liquidity through continued business development and additional equity investment in the Company.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing diluted net loss per share, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive securities. There were no dilutive securities for the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
A majority of our revenue was recorded from one customer and a related party, National Lampoon, Inc., and its subsidiaries. We generated $Nil and $196,312 in revenue, or 0% and 100% of total revenue, for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For the nine month period ending May 31, 2009 and 2008, we generated $435,494 and $374,966 in revenue, or 58% and 100% of total revenue, from National Lampoon, Inc. respectively.
5. | ADVANCES TO RELATED PARTY |
These advances are unsecured, non interest bearing and due on demand. As of May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008, advances to related parties were $Nil and $76,798, respectively. These advances were made to a company controlled by the spouse of a director and shareholder of the Company. In May 2009, due to the poor performance of the company, the Company wrote off the balance and recorded a bad debt expense of $37,298.
6. | CAPITALIZED PRODUCTION COSTS |
All capitalized production costs relate to projects in development. The Company expects 100% of the balance of capitalized production costs will be amortized or expensed within the next year.

7. | PRODUCTION LOANS AND ACCRUED INTEREST |
The Company provides production financing to National Lampoon, Inc., a corporate shareholder ("NL") that shares certain directors and officers of Red Rock Pictures Holdings, Inc. The production advances bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, has a security interest in the film to the extent of the actual amount of the funding as long as there is an unpaid balance on the loan and are repayable from 100% of any and all net revenues from each picture. The financing agreements allows for the Company to advance up to $2,000,000 per picture production.
Outstanding production loans to and accrued interest with NL consists of the following as of May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008 was:
Production | | As of May 31, 2009 | | | As of August 31, 2008 | |
| | | | | | |
Bag Boy Productions, Inc. | | $ | - | | | $ | 1,077,635 | |
Ratko Productions, Inc. | | | - | | | | 2,163,992 | |
Endless Bummer, LLC | | | 30,000 | | | | - | |
Total | | | 30,000 | | | | 3,241,627 | |
Less current portion | | | - | | | | (1,396,470 | ) |
Long term portion of production loans and interest | | $ | 30,000 | | | $ | 1,845,157 | |
| | | | | | | | |
In 2006 through 2008, the Company invested in two films titled Bag Boy and Ratko. Per the financing agreement with National Lampoon, Inc., the payments were to be made from the proceeds received from the film over an estimated revenue cycle of three years. The payments were to be distributed as follows:
· | National Lampoon was to receive a 20% distribution fee. |
· | National Lampoon was to receive recoupment of all prints and advertising expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of the picture. |
· | The remaining gross receipts were to be split equally between the Company and National Lampoon until such time as the Company has recouped its investment entirely. |
During the three months ended May 31, 2009, the Company requested National Lampoon, Inc. provide and discuss updated performance information on both the Bag Boy and Ratko films and their ability to repay the production loans and accrued interest. Based on our review of the information, it was determined that the films will be unable to repay the production loans and accrued interest. We therefore recorded a charge of $2.4 million and $2.7 million during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009, respectively.
Endless Bummer Productions LLC - Per a deal memorandum effective March 18, 2009 between Red Rock Pictures Holding, Inc., National Lampoon, Inc., 4Fini, Inc. Chris Kaman and Endless Bummer Productions, LLC, the Company has an obligation to invest in an upcoming feature length motion picture title Endless Bummer. In April 2009, the Company invested $30,000 in the film.
8. | PRINT AND ADVERTISING FUNDING |
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with NL whereby the Company agreed to advance funding to NL for print and advertising services (P&A) for certain titles released by NL for total advances of up to $2,000,000. The Company will be entitled to recoup its investment plus a premium of twenty percent (20%) of the amount funded. In addition, the Company will be entitled to a five percent (5%) of all net contingent proceeds from the picture.
| INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL |
The Company acquired the direct response marketing business of Studio Store Direct, Inc. in Fiscal 2008. The intangible asset values related to this acquisition are being amortized straight-line over a five year period:
The changes in the carrying amount of intangible assets were as follows:
| | As of May 31, 2009 | | | As of August 31, 2008 | |
| | | | | | |
Intangible assets at beginning of period | | $ | 424,280 | | | $ | - | |
Additions | | | - | | | | 446,611 | |
Amortization | | | (67,041 | ) | | | (22,331 | ) |
Impairments | | | (379,620 | ) | | | - | |
Total | | $ | -- | | | $ | 424,290 | |
In accordance with Company policy, the intangible assets assigned to the Studio Store Direct reporting unit was reviewed for impairment in the third quarter of Fiscal 2009. The Company was declined a patent on the completed technology acquired during the acquisition. As a result of the decline, an intangible asset charge of $379,620 was recorded during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009. This reduced the carrying amount of intangible assets related to the Studio Store Direct reporting unit to $Nil at May 31, 2009.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows:
| | As of May 31, 2009 | | | As of August 31, 2008 | |
| | | | | | |
Goodwill at beginning of period | | $ | 450,338 | | | $ | - | |
Additions | | | - | | | | 450,338 | |
Impairments | | | (450,338 | ) | | | - | |
Total | | $ | -- | | | $ | 450,338 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Goodwill was assigned to the Studio Store Direct reporting unit. The Company’s reporting unit, which are one level below the single reportable segment, are identified based upon the availability of discrete financial information and senior management’s regular review of these units. Goodwill is assessed annually at the reporting unit level or more frequently if circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test shall be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. In the second step, the Company compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.
In accordance with Company policy, the goodwill assigned to the Studio Store Direct reporting unit was tested for impairment in the third quarter of Fiscal 2009. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to determine the fair value of its reporting units. Due to the economic downturn and its impact on consumer and enterprise spending trends, forecasted cash flows were reduced.
As a result of the declines in forecasted cash flows, a goodwill impairment charge of $450,338 was recorded during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009. This reduced the carrying amount of goodwill related to the Studio Store Direct reporting unit to $Nil at May 31, 2009.

As of May 31, 2009, there were no differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company will have tax losses available to be applied against future years' income as result of the losses incurred. However, due to the losses incurred in the period and expected future operating results, management determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset resulting from the tax losses available for carry forward will not be realized through the reduction of future income tax payments. Accordingly a 100% valuation allowance has been recorded for deferred income tax assets.
On July 3, 2009, Steve Handy resigned as a Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of Red Rock Picture Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"). Mr. Handy's resignation was not a result of any disagreements relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

Plan of Operation
Overview
We are engaged in the finance, production, distribution and marketing of filmed entertainment products, including theatrical motion pictures, television programs, home video products, and digitally delivered entertainment and media. We were founded in 2006 to leverage the experience and expertise of its management team and exploit emerging opportunities in traditional and digital media and entertainment. Our primary business model centers around the control of entertainment properties that we may develop, acquire, produce and/or finance. We will also be involved in the funding of motion pictures and other entertainment and media properties, both for our own library and development activities as well as in partnership with outside producers.
Proposed Milestones to Implement Business Operations
During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:
The Company will continue to enter into agreements with strategic partners in the film development and production industry. These partners will include film production entities such as National Lampoon, Inc., a current shareholder of the Company. The Company has entered into agreements to fund and co-fund production of a slate of National Lampoon branded moderately budgeted films. These films will be distributed by and through National Lampoon, focused primarily on the college audience, but marketed and distributed to the general population. The Company intends to fund P&A (Prints and Advertising) on these pictures to promote a limited release, less than 50 screens on the initial release. In the event it is decided to release the picture on additional screens, the Company may either increase funding or work with a P&A lender to provide the additional funding required. The terms of these agreements call for a ten percent (10%) annual interest rate and twenty-five (25%) percent net profit participation in the motion pictures after recoupment of all costs and distribution fees for funds advanced for film financings. For funds advanced for P&A, the terms include a twenty percent (20%) return premium and a profit participation of up to ten percent (10%) of net profits in the motion pictures.
The Company will begin building and formalizing relationship with the talent community. The Company intends to use our common shares as incentives to build these relationships. The Company intends to work with top talent to fund and produce projects that they bring to the Company. These are typically moderately budgeted projects which fall below the typical studio interest.
Another area that the Company will pursue as part of our plan is the acquisition of existing film properties and film and media related businesses. The Company will work to build a library of films to leverage across all distribution platforms. The Company feels that as distribution platforms continue to expand, there are opportunities to exploit content and generate revenue in a number of ways.
Their compensation is determined as a percentage of the purchase price of the acquisition. The company has evaluated a number of strategic acquisitions and continues to do so.
The Company will also hire and train a limited amount of additional staff, including management, marketing, and administrative personnel. The number of employees hired will be dependent upon a variety of factors including our progress in implementing our business plan and available capital. The Company believes that the hiring of employees will be an ongoing process during the Company’s existence.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended May 31, 2009 and 2008
Revenue
Revenue was $Nil and $196,302 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. We wrote down the balance of our capitalized production loans (See Note 7) and therefore stopped recording the related interest revenue. Total interest revenue on production advances was $Nil and $90,476 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, the Company recorded Distribution financing fee revenues of $Nil and $105,826 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The revenue in 2008 was related to one contract which has expired. No similar activity occurred in 2009.
Costs and Expenses
Cost and expenses was $4.3 million and $110,907 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This increase of $4.2 million was due to the increase in non-cash expenses including the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of $829,928, impairment of production loan advances of $2.8 million, stock based employee compensation of $244,000, stock issued for payment of professional services rendered of $225,000 and an increase in bad debt expense of $49,972. The remaining difference is due to normal fluctuations in operating expenses based on business operations.
Income Taxes
During the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, we had no provision for income taxes due to the net operating losses incurred.
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended May 31, 2009 and 2008
Revenue
Revenue was $435,494 and $374,967 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase of revenue of $60,527 was due to the completion of one infomercial project that generated revenue of $183,650. In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to provide print and advertising services. This agreement generated $Nil and $69,844 in revenue during the comparative period.
Costs and Expenses
Cost and expenses was $5.6 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This increase of $4.0 million was due to the increase in non-cash expenses including the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of $829,928, impairment of production loan advances of $3.1 million, stock based employee compensation of $952,000, stock issued for payment of professional services rendered of $225,000 and an increase in bad debt expense of $79,948. The remaining difference is due to normal fluctuations in operating expenses based on business operations.
Income Taxes
During the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, we had no provision for income taxes due to the net operating losses incurred.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2009 we had no cash and a working capital deficiency of $2.3 million. A substantial amount of cash will be required in order to continue operations over the next twelve months. Based upon our current cash and working capital deficiency, we will not be able to meet our current operating expenses and will require additional capital. We have been in discussion with, and we continue to seek, private investors in hopes of raising enough capital to efficiently operate our business.
Our cash flows provided by operating activities was $170,643 reflecting the increase in our accounts receivable and the recording of revenue and expenses associated with the delivery of an infomercial project during the year.
Our cash flows used in investing activities was $30,000. The balance reflects an increase in both production loans and print and advertising funding and related interest. The Company expects to see some payments on the loans and print and advertising funding during the second half of fiscal year 2009.
Our cash flows from financing activities represent activity with a related party to fund print and advertising and production loans.
On June 9, 2007, the Company entered into loan agreements with the N. Williams Family Investments, L.P. and Daniel Laikin (”) for $1,000,000 each for a total of $2,000.000. The loan agreement with Daniel Laikin was subsequently amended from $1,000,000 to $900,000. The Company is currently in default under the terms of these loan agreements.
On April 7, 2009, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to purchase and assume certain assets of ComedyNet.TV, Inc. (“ComedyNet”), a Delaware corporation. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001per share (the “Common Stock”) in consideration for the assets of ComedyNet. It was agreed that an additional 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock would be issued to ComedyNet in exchange for an additional investment of $150,000 and an additional 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock would be issued upon an investment of $350,000.
ComedyNet arranged an initial investment of $1,000,000 into the Company by a third-party investor to be funded in separate tranches. An initial investment of $100,000 was delivered to the Company in the form of a Secured Convertible Note which is convertible at $0.06 per share with a ten (10%) percent interest rate. The Note Holder is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid amount into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.06 per common share.
An additional $150,000 was to be delivered to the Company upon the filing of a Form S-1 Registration Statement for the underlying Common Stock issued to ComedyNet pursuant to the Agreement with an additional $50,000 funded upon the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declaring effectiveness of the Registration Statement. In addition, within thirty days of the closing of the Agreement, the third party investor agreed to fund an additional $200,000 to be used for production of an infomercial campaign. The funds generated from the infomercial campaign would be paid first to the Company until 100% of all verifiable direct out of pocket expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the infomercial has been recouped, then to the investor until the investor has recouped 100% of the infomercial investment in full, a management fee shall be paid to the Company equal to 3% of the adjusted gross revenue, and a commission equal 15% of all revenue generated in perpetuity for every customer acquired as a result of the Company’s marketing shall be paid to the Company, 1/3rd of which (5% of Gross) shall be immediately paid to Investor upon the Company’s receipt thereof in return for its investment. In addition the investor was granted a right of first refusal to fund all future infomercial projects of the Company.
In addition, the Company also executed a consulting agreement with Mark Graff (the “Consultant”), the terms of which were to become effective upon the funding of $150,000 and filing of the S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC. The Consultant was to be paid $5,000 per month for a period of six months and was to have the exclusive right to sell and distribute the ComedyNet programming catalog to Broadcast, cable and other ancillary markets in North America for a 2 year term and shall be entitled to a 30% distribution fee from all sales.
ComedyNet is an on-demand digital programming network bringing together the creative community of comedians, comedy writers, animators, videographers, cartoonists and raconteurs. The company attracts the community of “funny” by providing the tool sets, production, post production, stages, live studio and Club settings for the advancement of the comedic arts, while also providing the audience reach though distribution on all digital media platforms.
Comedians work as producer/writers/performers utilizing ComedyNet’s in-house production and post-production facilities. ComedyNet also relies on vetted submissions from the online community, college campuses, film festivals and various competitions. Beyond production and submissions ComedyNet also actively acquire additional materials such as TV/Film libraries, special events, etc. ComedyNet also produces stand-up comedy at various clubs nationwide.
The transaction was terminated on May 28, 2009 due to the ComedyNet’s failure to complete its obligations under the asset purchase agreement specifically with regard to the funding set forth above.
Based upon the above we have not been able to raise the capital expected to pursue our business plan. We are seeking advice from investment professionals on how to obtain additional capital. We will need to raise additional capital to continue our operations and there is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the needed capital. Currently we have no material commitments for capital expenditures.
Critical Accounting Policies
Red Rock’s financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.
Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 3 of our annual financial statements filed on Form 10-K and dated December 15, 2008. While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial condition and results of operations, Red Rock views certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISKS
The Company is not subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates.
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company's operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.
Our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2009. In making this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, Our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of May 31, 2009, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
On October 27, 2008, we and our wholly owned subsidiary Studio Store Direct, Inc. (“SSD”), were served with a summons and complaint related to a contract action brought against the Company by Livon Laboratory, Inc. (“LivOn”).
The breach of claim by LivOn is related to contract entered into between SSD, and LivOn for the production of an infomercial to be used as a direct response-marketing tool in conjunction with the sale of LivOn’s LypoSpheric Vitamin C. LivOn requested relief in excess of $60,000 for the alleged material breach of the contract between SSD and LivOn. In April 2009, LivOn paid the Company $15,000, and the Company wrote off the remaining balance owed by LivOn of $33,450 to settle the lawsuit.
