SUMMARY
The following summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus before making an investment decision relating to the purchase of our shares of common stock.
OUR BUSINESS
We are the owner of an integrated computer software and hardware based platform that enables hotels to provide their guests with wireless entertainment and services through the use of a single hand-held computer or personal digital assistant (“PDA”) device that hotels give to their guests upon check-in. We refer to this computer software and hardware platform as the “Wireless Guest Entertainment” (“WGE”) platform. Our WGE platform has been designed with the objective of providing hotels with the opportunity to increase revenue and guest satisfaction by providing wireless entertainment and services packages to their guests. Our WGE platform enables hotel guests to have a higher degree of control of their in-room experience on a single hand-held computer or PDA.
Our Magenta WGE technology consists of two complementary technologies—the New Media technology and the TV Extension Platform technology. The New Media technology is a software and hardware package for wireless hotel in-room entertainment systems that incorporates the use of a programmed handheld PDA that enables hotel guests to wirelessly order and pay for a variety of hotel based services. The TV Extension Platform technology consists of a software platform that enables the launch of interactive services by a television broadcaster. The combined platform allows for interaction between hotel guests and the television service and between the hotel’s financial processing systems, which are able record and process the purchase of products or services through the Magenta WGE network.
We have completed the development of the Magenta WGE application and have launched a successful pilot program of the product in a London hotel. Although we plan to make additional improvements to the Magenta WGE technology going forward, the platform is ready for market in its current configuration. We have commenced the process of marketing our Magenta WGE application, but to date we have achieved only minimal sales. Accordingly, we are in the development stage of our business. Further, we will require additional financing in order to effectively market our Magenta WGE application.
Our plan of operations is to generate revenues by licensing our WGE solution to hotels and selling them the necessary hardware to run the technology. We have targeted 3-, 4- and 5-star independent hotels and small group hotels (that is, hotel groups with approximately 5 or fewer locations) as well as hotels located in historic properties in the London, England area for our initial marketing efforts. We plan to market directly to these hotels in order to secure our initial hotel customers. In addition to engaging in these direct marketing efforts, we also plan to target sales to these hotels indirectly through third-party partners on the basis of commission or revenue sharing arrangements.
We were incorporated as Hasox Inc. on May 23, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. We conduct our business operations in the United Kingdom through Magenta New Media Ltd (“Magenta UK”), our wholly owned subsidiary, which was incorporated under the laws of the United Kingdom on February 18, 2004. We acquired Magenta UK on May 23, 2006 for consideration consisting of 12,500,000 shares of our common stock. During the period from our incorporation to the date of our acquisition of Magenta UK, we were engaged in completing our corporate organization and our initial financings. We changed our name to “Magenta Media (US) Inc.” on September 14, 2006 to reflect our acquisition of Magenta UK. We are presently engaged in efforts to market the Magenta WGE application through Magenta UK as our wholly owned subsidiary.
Magenta UK has been working on efforts to commercially exploit the New Media technology since March 30, 2004, when Magenta UK entered into an agency exploitation agreement with four entities that
Page 3
had acquired licenses to the New Media technology. In addition, as of April 10, 2006, Magenta UK became an agent for the licensee of the TV Extension Platform technology under a separate agency exploitation agreement. Under these agency exploitation agreements, Magenta UK acted as the agent to the licensees to commercially exploit the license rights in these two technologies by pursuing potential income-earning opportunities on behalf of the licensees.
We acquired all intellectual property rights to the New Media technology and the TV Extension Platform technology as of June 30, 2006 in two separate transactions for total consideration consisting of 7,000,000 shares of our common stock. The licenses held by the licensees, as well as the agency exploitation agreements pursuant to which Magenta UK worked to commercially exploit the New Media and TV Extension Platform technologies on behalf of these licensees, were terminated concurrently with our acquisition of these intellectual property rights. As a result, we now own all intellectual property rights to these two technologies that comprise the Magenta WGE technology, and Magenta UK, as our wholly-owned subsidiary, continues to work to seek commercial opportunities with respect to the Magenta WGE technology by marketing it to hotels on our behalf.
We presently have limited funds with which to pursue our plan of operations to market our Magenta WGE application. We have completed private placement financings as part of our corporate organization and as a condition of our acquisition of Magenta UK. While we plan to apply the proceeds of these private placements towards the marketing of our Magenta WGE application, we anticipate that we will require additional funding in order to achieve significant sales of our Magenta WGE application and related services. We have no arrangements for any additional financing and there is no assurance that we will obtain any additional financing.
Our principal office is located at Suite 5.18, 130 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, England, W1D 5EU. Our telephone number is +44 (0)20 7031 1187 and our fax number is +44 (0)20 7031 1199.

Summary of Financial Data
The summarized financial data presented below is derived from and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and for the period from incorporation (February 18, 2004) to September 30, 2006, including the notes to those financial statements. These financial statements are included elsewhere in this prospectus. Effective May 23, 2006, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Magenta UK by issuing 12,500,000 shares of our common stock. Notwithstanding its legal form, our acquisition of Magenta UK has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition, since the acquisition resulted in the former shareholders of Magenta UK owning the majority of our issued and outstanding shares. Because Hasox Inc. (now Magenta Media (US) Inc.) was a newly incorporated company with nominal net non-monetary assets, the acquisition has been accounted for as an issuance of stock by Magenta UK accompanied by a recapitalization. Under the rules governing reverse acquisition accounting, the results of operations of Magenta Media (US) Inc. are included in our consolidated financial statements effective May 23, 2006. Our date of inception is the date of incorporation of Magenta UK, being February 18, 2004, and our financial statements are presented with reference to the date of inception of Magenta UK. The summarized financial data should also be read in conjunction with the section of this prospectus entitled "Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations". All figures are in U.S. funds.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock, when and if we trade at a later date, could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
As we have a limited operating history and our ability to exploit our Wireless Guest Entertainment (“WGE”) technology is untested, we may never earn revenues or achieve profitability.
We were incorporated on May 23, 2005 and only recently acquired Magenta UK on May 23, 2006. Magenta UK was incorporated in the United Kingdom on February 18, 2004. Magenta UK’s experience with the Magenta WGE application, which consists of two technologies (the New Media technology and the TV Extension Platform technology), has been limited to acting as an agent of four original licensees of the New Media technology and as agent of one original licensee of the TV Extension Platform technology, in each case, with a contractual mandate to exploit commercially the technology on behalf of the licensees. Our operating history is limited, and to date we have been involved primarily in organizational and development activities. Moreover, we have only recently acquired the intellectual property rights to the WGE technology on May 23, 2006, and we have little experience as the owner of the technology. We have had only minimal revenues to date ($2,542 since inception on February 18, 2004 through September 30, 2006), and our ability to effectively market our Magenta WGE technology is untested. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will ever achieve revenues or profitability.
As we have had only minimal sales of our WGE solution to date, there is no assurance that we will ever achieve significant revenues.
Our plan of operation is focused on marketing and selling our Magenta WGE solutions to independent hotels and small group hotels in the 3-, 4- or 5-star category as well as hotels located in historic buildings in London, UK. Our ability to achieve revenues and future profitability will depend on our ability to successfully market our WGE solution to these hotels. As indicated above, we have had only minimal revenues to date ($2,542 since inception on February 18, 2004 through September 30, 2006). There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully develop sales of our WGE solution. We are not able to provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to operate our business successfully or that we will be able to achieve profitable operations. Potential investors should consider the difficulties normally encountered in developing and commercializing new technological solutions, and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the marketing process that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to unanticipated problems relating to the development and distribution and marketing or our product and our inability to provide a service that meets the expectations of hotels and their guests. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, then we will not achieve revenues and our business will most likely fail.
If we are unable to obtain additional financing to execute our plan of operations, then we will not have sufficient funds with which to carry out our plan of operations and our business will most likely fail.
Our plan of operations is to market and generate revenues from our Magenta WGE technology. As at September 30, 2006, we had cash of $35,242 and a working capital deficit of $73,801. We anticipate that our planned expenditures over the next twelve months to implement our plan of operations in the amount of $275,279 will exceed our cash reserves and working capital. Accordingly, unless we achieve significant revenues within the next twelve months, we anticipate that we will require financing in the amount of approximately $350,000 in order to carry out our plan of operations for the next twelve months. In fact, because we have limited cash and working capital, we will not be able to fund our
Page 7
operations beyond February 1, 2007 without additional financing. We presently do not have any arrangements for additional financing in place and there is no assurance that we will be able to arrange for additional financing. If we are not able to arrange for additional financing to cover these additional anticipated expenses, we will not be able to execute our plan of operations with the result that our business may fail and investors may lose a substantial portion or all of their investment.
If we are not able to enter into agreements with hotels to purchase our WGE solution, we will not earn revenues and our business will fail.
We anticipate that a substantial portion, if not all, of our future revenue will be derived directly and indirectly from the sale of our Magenta WGE solution to hotels. The successful introduction and market acceptance of our Magenta WGE solution—as well as the development, introduction and market acceptance of any future enhancements—are, therefore, critical to our future success and our ability to generate revenues. Unfortunately, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in marketing our current product, or any new product offerings, applications or enhancements. Failure to achieve market acceptance of our product, as a result of competition, technological advances, or otherwise, will result in a lack of sales and revenues, which would cause our business to fail.
If we are not able to enter into arrangements with strategic partners to market our Magenta WGE solution, then our ability to achieve revenues from fees for the adoption and use of our Magenta WGE solution will be reduced.
An important aspect of our business plan involves entering into arrangements with strategic partners to market our Magenta WGE solution to hotel decision makers. There is no assurance that potential strategic partners will enter into these marketing arrangements with us. Further, there is no assurance that any strategic relationships that we enter into will result in sales of our WGE solution to hotel customers. If we are not able to enter into these strategic relationships or if the relationships that we do enter into are not successful, we will have to rely on our direct marketing initiatives to promote our Magenta WGE solution to potential clients, likely resulting in lower than expected revenues and a significantly higher risk that our business will fail.
If we are unable to provide effective WGE services through our WGE solutions, we will have difficulty maintaining and attracting customers.
Our Magenta WGE solution is an integrated software- and hardware-based platform. We have only very limited pilot project experience in deploying our software and hardware technology solutions in hotels. Accordingly, it is very possible we will experience problems in the deployment and implementation of our WGE solution. These problems may result in difficulties in offering the wireless services and functionality to hotel guests, or delays in providing these services. If either the software or hardware component (or the combination of both components working together) does not enable hotels to provide a high level of service to their guests, then we will have difficulty in maintaining any clients that we are able to attract, and it will be difficult for us to attract new customers. This failure to satisfy our initial hotel clients could result in our ability to earn revenues or to attract new customers.
We have a history of losses and negative cash flows, which are likely to continue unless our WGE solution gains sufficient market acceptance to generate a commercially viable level of sales.
Since incorporation through September 30, 2006, we have incurred aggregate comprehensive net losses of $2,151,748. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, we had a total comprehensive net loss for the period of $160,782. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, we had a total comprehensive net loss for the period of $1,899,905. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully market our Magenta WGE solution in order to generate revenues, achieve profitability and generate positive cash flow in the future. Further, we also expect an increase in development and operating costs as we undertake our plan of operations prior to achieving revenues, of which there is no certainty. Consequently, we expect to incur continued operating losses and net cash outflows until such time as our
Page 8
WGE solution gains market acceptance sufficient to generate a commercially viable and sustainable level of sales. In addition, our operating results in the future may be subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control, such as market acceptance of our WGE solution, competition from providers of similar services or development of superior technologies by third parties.
If our operating expenses are greater than anticipated, then we will have less funds with which to pursue our plan of operations and our additional financing requirements will be greater than anticipated.
We may find that the costs of carrying out our plan of operations prior to achieving revenues are greater than we anticipate. Increased operating costs will cause the amount of additional financing that we require to increase. Investors may be more reluctant to provide additional financing if we cannot demonstrate that we can control our operating costs. There is no assurance that additional financing required as a result of our operating costs being greater than anticipated will be available to us. If we do not control our operating expenses, then we will have less funds with which to carry out our plan of operations with the result that our business may fail.
As there is a substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, there is a significant risk that our business will fail.
In their report on our annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph expressing doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This was due to the uncertainty of our ability at the time to meet our current operating and capital expenses. As a result, we caution investors that there is a substantial risk that our business may fail.
Because our sole officer and director does not have experience in managing or serving as the principal financial or chief accounting officer of a reporting company under the Exchange Act, there is a risk that our Exchange Act reports and financial statements may contain errors.
Our sole officer and director, Mr. Nathan Amery, does not have experience in managing or serving as the principal financial or chief accounting officer of a reporting company under the Exchange Act. Nor does he have experience in the preparation or review of Exchange Act reports or financial statements. Due to Mr. Amery’s lack of experience in the preparation or review of Exchange Act reports, there is a risk that our Exchange Act reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission may contain errors. With respect to our financial statements, we rely on the services of outside accounting professionals that we engage for the preparation of our financial statements. There is a risk that errors will be made by the accountants that may not be identified by Mr. Amery due to his lack of experience in the preparation or review of financial statements. As such, there is a risk that the financial statements that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission will contain errors. Investors are cautioned that these errors may be present even though the annual financial statements that we prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission are audited by our independent public accountant and the interim financial statements that we prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission are reviewed by our independent public accountant.
We operate in a highly competitive industry and our failure to compete effectively may adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.
Our industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid change. Our Magenta WGE technology involves entertainment and service solutions for hotels, providing guests with a variety of options on PDAs or hand-held computers. We cannot guarantee that our software development resources will be sufficient to modify our products fast enough to meet customer and market requirements. We also expect to experience competition from companies with similar technologies or technologies that accomplish similar goals. Some of our current and potential competitors have greater technical, financial, marketing, sales
Page 9
and other resources than we do. Such competition will potentially affect our chances of achieving profitability and ultimately adversely affect our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our products may become obsolete and unmarketable if we are unable to respond adequately to rapidly changing technology and customer demands.
Our industry is characterized by rapid changes in technology and customer demands. As a result, our Magenta WGE technology may quickly become obsolete and unmarketable. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to technological advances, anticipate customer demands, develop new products and enhance our current WGE technology on a timely and cost-effective basis. Further, our products must remain competitive with those of other companies with substantially greater resources. We may experience technical or other difficulties that could delay or prevent the development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhanced versions of existing products. Also, we may not be able to adapt new or enhanced services to emerging industry standards, and our new products may not be favourably received.
As we contract out our software development activities to independent third party contractors, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue development work on our Magenta WGE software or that this work will be completed on a continued or timely basis.
We do not have the internal ability to carry out software development work on our products. To date, we have outsourced our software development work to IPlato, a company based in London, England and the Czech Republic, as well as to Josef Novac, an independent contractor based in Prague, the Czech Republic. We anticipate outsourcing future software upgrades and developments on our services on a project-by-project basis to IPlato, Mr. Novac or other independent website designers. There can be no assurance that any of these third parties will be able to carry out the development work we require when we require it or complete the work on a cost-effective basis. If we are not able to carry out our development work when we require it or obtain such work on a cost-effective basis, we run the risk of not responding to market demands for improvements. This could harm our customer relationships and negatively affect our operating results.
Substantially all of our assets and our sole director and officer are located outside the United States, with the result that it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our sole director and officer.
Substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, our sole director and officer is a resident of the United Kingdom, and all or a substantial portion of his assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our sole officer and director, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal securities laws against our director and officer.
We could lose our competitive advantages if we are not able to protect any proprietary technology and intellectual property rights against infringement, and any related litigation could be time-consuming and costly.
Our success and ability to compete depends to a significant degree on our proprietary WGE technology. We have not achieved any trademark protection of the “Magenta Media” name that we use in connection with our WGE technology and our business. As we have not obtained any trademark protection, we may not be able to prevent any competitor from adopting the same or similar names to the name that we use. Further, there is a risk that a competitor or other party may allege that our use of this name is a breach of the trademark or other intellectual property rights of the party.
Page 10
We also do not have any patent protection that covers our Magenta WGE technology. Accordingly, the only measure that we believe will be available to us to protect our Magenta WGE technology will be based upon a combination of trade secret and copyright law and our ability to ensure confidentiality of the software source codes through non-disclosure agreements. If any of our competitors copies or otherwise gains access to such proprietary technology or software or develops similar technologies independently, our competitive position will be damaged.
While we believe that we have the rights to exploit the Magenta WGE software, there is a risk that other persons may bring actions against us claiming that we have infringed on their intellectual property rights, including claims based upon the breach of trademark or patent, or claims that our intellectual property rights are not valid. Any claims against us, with or without merit, may be time-consuming and costly to defend or litigate, may divert our attention and resources, may result in the loss of goodwill associated with our business or may require us to make changes to our technologies. We currently do not have sufficient financial resources to defend any litigation that alleges a breach by us of another party’s intellectual property rights.
As a result of these factors, investors should be aware that we may be unable to protect any intellectual property rights that we have or that we will be able to exploit the intellectual property rights that we do have in order to secure a competitive position in the marketplace.
If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our future business results could be harmed and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.
As we proceed with the marketing of the Magenta WGE technology, we expect to experience significant growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to add staff to market our services, manage operations, handle sales and marketing efforts and perform finance and accounting functions. We will be required to hire a broad range of additional personnel in order to successfully manage our operations if we are successful in marketing our Magenta WGE technology. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
If we lose the services of Mr. Nathan Amery, our sole director and officer, then we may not be able to carry out our plan of operations.
We will be dependent upon the services of Mr. Nathan Amery, our sole director and officer, to carry out our plan of operations. The loss of the services of Mr. Amery could have a serious effect on our ability to execute our business plan and succeed in marketing our Magenta WGE technology. If we should lose the services of Mr. Amery, then we would be forced to hire another person to manage our business and undertake the implementation of our plan of operations. We do not maintain any ‘key man’ insurance on Mr. Amery.
If government regulations are adopted that impose additional costs or requirements on our ability to provide our Magenta WGE technology, then our cost of operations may be increased and we may not be able to carry out our plan of operations.
Our industry is highly regulated and both we and our future customers and clients may be affected by changes in regulation of wireless technology. The indirect impact of changes in regulation could affect our business adversely even though the specific regulations do not apply directly to us or our products. Changing governmental regulations may impose new and different requirements with which our Magenta WGE technology must comply. We have no control over regulations and regulatory change and cannot guarantee that our Magenta WGE technology will meet the minimum standards as set out by applicable future regulation. Establishing compliance may be costly and time-consuming and our failure to do so could result in our inability to market our Magenta WGE technology and carry out our plan of operations.
Page 11
Further, the existence of government regulation in markets into which we may wish to enter may impose prohibitive costs of operation which could result in our determination not to offer our Magenta WGE technology to hotels in these markets.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
We have not paid any dividends and do not foresee paying dividends in the future.
Payment of dividends on our common stock is within the discretion of the board of directors and will depend upon our future earnings, our capital requirements, our financial condition and other relevant factors. We have no plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
There is no active trading market for our common stock, and if a market for our common stock does not develop our investors will be unable to sell their shares.
There is currently no active trading market for our common stock, and such a market may not develop or be sustained. We currently plan to have our common stock quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc.'s OTC Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. In order to do this, a market maker must file a Form 15c-211 to allow the market maker to make a market in our shares of common stock. At the date hereof, we are not aware that any market maker has any such intention. We cannot provide our investors with any assurance that our common stock will be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize. Further, the OTC Bulletin Board is not a listing service or exchange, but is instead a dealer quotation service for subscribing members. If our common stock is not quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or if a public market for our common stock does not develop, then investors may not be able to resell the shares of our common stock that they have purchased and may lose all of their investment.
For reasons outside our control, our stock price may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock, if listed, is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
technological innovations or new WGE products and services offered by us or our competitors;
additions or departures of key personnel;
sales of our common stock;
our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services;
our ability to execute our business plan;
operating results below expectations;
loss of any strategic partner or relationship;
industry developments;
economic and other external factors; and
period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.
Because we have a limited operating history with no revenues to date, you may consider any one of these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate widely as a result of any of the above-listed factors.
Page 12
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Our common stock will be subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, which will make transactions in our common stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our common stock.
We currently plan to have our common stock quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc.’s OTC Bulletin Board, which is generally considered to be a less efficient market than markets such as NASDAQ or other national exchanges, and which may cause difficulty in conducting trades and obtaining future financing. Further, our securities will be subject to the “penny stock rules” adopted pursuant to Section 15(g) of theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The penny stock rules apply generally to companies whose common stock trades at less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain limited exemptions. Such rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade “penny stock” to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade “penny stock” because of the requirements of the "penny stock rules" and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. In the event that we remain subject to the “penny stock rules” for any significant period, there may develop an adverse impact on the market, if any, for our securities. Because our securities are subject to the “penny stock rules”, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities. Further, it is more difficult: (i) to obtain accurate quotations, (ii) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services, such as the Dow Jones News Service, generally do not publish press releases about such companies, and (iii) to obtain needed capital.
Please read this prospectus carefully. You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information. You should not assume that the information provided in this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of this prospectus.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding our capital needs, business plans and expectations. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties regarding the success of our business plan, availability of funds, government regulations, operating costs, our ability to achieve significant revenues, customer acceptance of business model and application solutions and other factors. Forward-looking statements are made, without limitation, in relation to operating plans, property exploration and development, availability of funds, environmental reclamation, operating costs and permit acquisition. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential" or "continue", the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. Actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors, including the risks outlined in this prospectus. These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding our business plans, our actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results, except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States.

The safe harbour for forward-looking statements provided in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 does not apply to the offering made in this prospectus.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock offered through this prospectus by the selling stockholders. All proceeds from the sale of the shares will be for the account of the selling stockholders, as described below in the sections of this prospectus entitled “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.” We will, however, incur all costs associated with this registration statement and prospectus.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
As there is no public market for our common stock, we fixed the benchmark offering by reference to our most recent private offering of our common stock, which was effected at $0.25 per share. The selling stockholders will sell at their common stock at the price of $0.25 per share until our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or in another quotation medium and, thereafter, at prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. There is no relationship whatsoever between the offering price and our assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value.
We have not applied for listing or quotation on any public market. If our common stock becomes publicly traded and a market for the stock develops, the actual offering price of the shares that are the subject of this prospectus will be determined by prevailing market prices at the time of sale or by private transactions negotiated by the selling stockholders named in this prospectus. The offering price would thus be determined by market factors and the independent decisions of the selling stockholders named in this prospectus.
DILUTION
The common stock to be sold by the selling stockholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing stockholders.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The selling stockholders named in this prospectus are offering all of the 12,065,295 shares of common stock offered through this prospectus. The selling stockholders acquired these shares of common stock from us in the following transactions:
1. Certain selling stockholders (identified by footnote 4 in the table below) acquired 11,000,000 shares of our common stock from us at a price of $0.005 per share in a private placement offering that was completed without registration under the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S of the Securities Act on August 12, 2005.
2. Certain selling stockholders (identified by footnote 5 in the table below) acquired 665,295 shares of our common stock from us at a price of $0.05 per share in a private placement offering that was completed without registration under the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S of the Securities Act on May 23, 2006.
3. Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS (beneficial owner Erik Gravgaard) and Price and Leyland Capital Ltd. (beneficial owner Christoper Ternel) (identified by footnote 6 in the table below) acquired 400,000 shares of our common stock from us at a deemed issue price of $0.25 per share on June 30, 2006 pursuant to Rule 903 of Regulation S of the Securities Act, upon conversion of loans in the aggregate amount of
Page 14
$100,000 payable pursuant to a promissory notes that we entered into on May 23, 2006 concurrent with the acquisition of Magenta UK.
The following table provides, as of January 10, 2007, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each of the selling stockholders, including:
the number of shares owned by each selling stockholder prior to this offering;
the total number of shares that are to be offered by each selling stockholder;
the total number of shares that will be owned by each selling stockholder upon completion of the offering; and
the percentage owned by each selling stockholder upon completion of this offering.
Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based upon information obtained from the selling stockholders. Information with respect to “Shares Beneficially Owned After the Offering” assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by this prospectus and no other purchases or sales of our common shares by the selling stockholders. Except as described below and to our knowledge, the named selling stockholder beneficially owns and has sole voting and investment power over all shares or rights to these shares. Other than the relationships described below, none of the selling stockholders had or have any material relationship with us. None of the selling stockholders is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer to our knowledge.

Footnotes:
(1) | Based on 32,065,295 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of January 10, 2007. |
| |
(2) | Beneficial ownership if calculation under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act. Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. |
| |
(3) | Because a selling stockholder may offer by this prospectus all or some part of the common shares which it holds, no estimate can be given as of the date hereof as to the number of common shares actually to be offered for sale by a selling shareholder or as to the number of common shares that will be held by a selling shareholder upon the termination of such offering. |

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Timing of Sales
The selling stockholders may offer and sell the shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale.
No Known Agreements to Resell the Shares
To our knowledge, no selling stockholder has any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to resell the shares covered by this prospectus.
Page 17
Offering Price
The selling stockholders will sell their shares at an offering price of $0.25 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or are listed for trading or quoted on any other public market. Thereafter, the sales price offered by the selling stockholders to the public may be:
1. | The market price prevailing at the time of sale; |
| |
2. | A price related to such prevailing market price; or |
| |
3. | Such other price as the selling stockholders determine from time to time. |
Our common stock is not currently listed on any national exchange or qualified for trading on any electronic quotation system. To date, no actions have been taken to list our shares on any national exchange or to qualify our shares for trading on any electronic quotation system. If our common stock becomes publicly traded, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each selling stockholder and the market for our stock at the time of resale.
Manner of Sale
The shares may be sold by means of one or more of the following methods:
1. | a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| |
2. | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus; |
| |
3. | ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; |
| |
4. | through options, swaps or derivatives; |
| |
5. | privately negotiated transactions; or |
| |
6. | in a combination of any of the above methods. |
The selling stockholders may sell their shares directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell their shares. Brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders, or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share, and, to the extent the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholder. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may thereafter resell the shares from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with re-sales of the shares, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of shares commissions as described above.
Page 18
If our selling stockholders enter into arrangements with brokers or dealers, as described above, we are obligated to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker dealers acting as underwriters.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling stockholders in the sale of the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Sales Pursuant to Rule 144
Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as amended, may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
Regulation M
The selling stockholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, we will advise the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. Regulation M under the Exchange Act prohibits, with certain exceptions, participants in a distribution from bidding for, or purchasing for an account in which the participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution.
Accordingly, during such times as a selling stockholder may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, the selling stockholder must comply with applicable law and, among other things:
1. | may not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock; |
| |
2. | may not cover short sales by purchasing shares while the distribution is taking place; and |
| |
3. | may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act. |
In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
Penny Stock Rules
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “institutional accredited investors.” The term “institutional accredited investor” refers generally to those accredited investors who are not natural persons and fall into one of the categories of accredited investor specified in subparagraphs (1), (2), (3), (7) or (8) of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, including institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and impose a waiting period of two business days before effecting the transaction. The risk disclosure document provides information about penny stocks and the nature and
Page 19
level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
Expenses of Registration
We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. These expenses are estimated to be $50,000, including, but not limited to, legal, accounting, printing and mailing fees. The selling stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We currently are not party to any material legal proceedings and, to our knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION
FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Nevada corporation law provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnification can cover expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such a person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Nevada corporation law also provides that to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defence of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defence of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defence. Our articles of incorporation and our by-laws authorize our company to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law, subject to certain enumerated exceptions.
We have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision.
ORGANIZATION SINCE INCORPORATION
We were incorporated on May 23, 2005 as Hasox Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada. On the date of our incorporation, we appointed Ray Saturnino, our initial founder, as our President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director. Mr. Saturnino incorporated Hasox Inc. for the purpose of creating a corporate
Page 25
entity to enter into a letter of intent to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Magenta UK and to pursue the necessary financing to complete that acquisition.
On June 2, 2005, we entered into a letter of intent with Magenta UK that contemplated our acquisition of Magenta UK subject to certain conditions, including our raising a minimum of $125,000. The minimum financing condition was imposed by the shareholders of Magenta UK in order to ensure that we would have working capital necessary to fund our initial acquisition and organizational expenses and to provide for additional funds for Magenta UK’s business. In order to raise funds to enable us to pursue the acquisition of Magenta UK and complete our corporation organization, we completed a private placement of 11,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.005 per share for proceeds of $55,000 on August 12, 2005.
We entered into a definitive share exchange agreement with Magenta UK and the shareholders of Magenta UK, including Mr. Nathan Amery, currently our sole director and executive officer, on August 20, 2005.
In furtherance of our $125,000 financing requirement, we completed a private placement of 665,295 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.05 per share for a total proceeds of $33,265 on May 23, 2006. On May 23, 2006, we borrowed an aggregate of $100,000 from Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS (beneficial owner Erik Gravgaard) and Price and Leyland Capital Ltd. (beneficial owner Christoper Ternel) and executed promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $100,000 evidencing these loans, thus completing the $125,000 financing requirement. On June 30, 2006, these loans were converted into 400,000 shares of our common stock at a deemed issue price of $0.25 per share.
We acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Magenta UK pursuant to the share exchange agreement on May 23, 2006 in consideration of our issuance of an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Magenta UK. Upon the completion of this share exchange transaction, Mr. Amery was issued 1,475,904 shares of our common stock in exchange for his shares in Magenta UK. ABS Global Capital Inc.

Outlander Management, ABS Global Capital and Mr. Amery were each involved in the negotiation of the share exchange agreement as shareholders of Magenta UK. On May 23, 2006, Mr. Amery, Magenta UK’s managing director, was appointed as our sole officer and director to replace Mr. Saturnino.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
CORPORATE ORGANIZATION
We are a development stage company incorporated on May 23, 2005 as Hasox Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada. We operate through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Magenta New Media Ltd (“Magenta UK”). We changed our name to “Magenta Media (US) Inc.” effective September 14, 2006 to reflect our acquisition of Magenta UK and its business. Magenta UK was incorporated on February 18, 2004 under the laws of the United Kingdom.
OVERVIEW
We are the owner of an integrated computer software and hardware based platform that enables hotels to provide their guests with wireless entertainment and services through the use of a single hand-held computer or personal digital assistant (“PDA”) device that hotels give to their guests upon check-in. We refer to this computer software and hardware platform as the “Wireless Guest Entertainment” (“WGE”) platform. Our WGE platform has been designed with the objective of providing hotels with the opportunity to increase revenue and guest satisfaction by providing wireless entertainment and services packages to their guests. Our WGE platform enables hotel guests to have a higher degree of control of their in-room experience on a single hand-held computer or PDA.
Our Magenta WGE technology consists of two complementary technologies—the New Media technology and the TV Extension Platform technology. The New Media technology is a software and hardware package for wireless hotel in-room entertainment systems that incorporates the use of a programmed handheld PDA that enables hotel guests to wirelessly order and pay for a variety of hotel based services.
Page 27
The TV Extension Platform technology consists of a software platform that enables the launch of interactive services by a television broadcaster. The combined platform allows for interaction between hotel guests and the television service and between the hotel’s financial processing systems, which are able record and process the purchase of products or services through the Magenta WGE network.
We launched our WGE platform in June 2005 when we started a pilot program within a small luxury hotel in Kensington, London. We deployed the Magenta system in the hotel and guests voluntarily tried it throughout their stays. We received positive feedback from guests, which we used as a basis for further developments. Hotel staff adapted to the Magenta WGE application quickly and expressed satisfaction with the benefits of the intuitive user interface and the increased efficiency that the Magenta WGE provided within the hotel. This pilot program is still in place, and we plan to continue this pilot program to test further developments of our WGE platform.
We have earned only minimal revenues to date. Our plan of operations is to generate revenues by licensing our WGE solution to hotels and selling them the necessary hardware to run the technology. We have targeted 3-, 4- and 5-star independent hotels and small group hotels (that is, hotel groups with approximately 5 or fewer locations) as well as hotels located in historic properties in the London, England area for our initial marketing efforts. We plan to market directly to these hotels in order to secure our initial hotel customers. In addition to engaging in these direct marketing efforts, we also plan to target sales to these hotels indirectly through third-party partners on the basis of commission or revenue sharing arrangements. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations—Plan of Operations.”

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
In recent years, the Internet, wireless technology and other advances have revolutionised the way people are able to communicate with each other and to access entertainment. In particular, people have become accustomed to accessing programming on demand via cable television or the Internet and being able to access email and the Internet on wireless PDAs and other hand-held devices. As people become accustomed to the availability of this technology, they begin to have the expectation that these services will be available in more and more locations. As such, hotel guest are beginning to demand this type of functionality from their hotel rooms. Hotels are now finding that they are losing their competitive edge if they are unable to offer these facilities.
MAGENTA WGE TECHNOLOGY
The Magenta WGE technology consists of two sets of complementary technologies, the “New Media technology” and the “TV Extension Platform technology”, which work together to provide a single WGE platform that allows hoteliers to increase revenue and guest satisfaction by providing bespoke wireless entertainment and services packages to luxury hotels. Hotels using the Magenta WGE technology will be able to provide their guests with the ability to have full control of their in-room experience on a single hand-held computer or PDA.
How the Magenta WGE Technology Works
When a guest checks in to a hotel, he or she is issued with a “Room Pro”. A Room Pro is a preprogrammed PDA or hand-held computer that operates as the central control for the guest while they are checked in at the hotel. A unique four digit pin code is generated as the guest checks in and must be used by the guest to confirm any chargeable service requests.
Room Pro offers the guest a series of options on an intuitive interface. The list of options is dependent on the package designed to the hotel’s specifications during a development and customisation period. The
Page 31
list of options can be provided in a variety of different languages to accommodate hotels’ international guests. The options can contain, but are not limited to, the following:
Television control (including premium pay television (“PPTV”) options)
Email
Internet
Guest information
Room service
Environment control (including lighting, curtains and air conditioning)
Local and national advertisements
Room messaging
Booking of hotel services – golf times, spa facilities, etc.
Each option progresses into sub menus based on the specifications of the hotel, with options to view further information or order services.
Room Pro communicates via wireless technology (“Wifi”) with a central server located in the hotel that houses the WGE Administration Module, as described below. WiFi connectivity has the advantage that there are no cabling requirements, saving installation costs and eliminating disruption of hotel services. In fact, installation of the WGE system will not ordinarily cause any down-time of guest rooms. The server can be installed as a new piece of hardware, but in many cases existing hardware can be used to house the Administration Module.
The Administration Module is the hub for all data and options available through Room Pro. Hotel management have full control of all information provided to guests on a web-based browser accessible by staff. As soon as any changes or updates are made, such as price changes, special offers or guest messages, these are sent immediately to the guest’s Room Pro over the wireless network. As a result, hotel staff are able to have instant communication with their guests.
As part of the Magenta WGE service, Wi-Fi Internet connection is provided, which allows hotels to sell Internet time to guests who wish to use their laptops. This service is likely to be particularly appealing to hotels with business guests.
Every television set in the hotels will be fully activated for all channels. Access to these channels will be granted by Room Pro upon payment for PPTV channels and at all times for free channels. For satellite television broadcasts, current feeds will be used when in place or arrangements will be made on behalf of the hotel to implement these through preferred content partners.
An optional extra of the Magenta WGE is environment control. By making the necessary changes to hardware already existing in hotel rooms or by providing additional hardware, Room Pro will allow guests to control all aspects of their room environment, including lighting, air conditioning and curtains/blinds.

WGE Hardware, Software and Installation
The Magenta WGE technology requires a limited amount of hardware. Where possible, existing hotel hardware is used to minimize costs and improve convergence. The following hardware is required:
1 PDA per guest room
1 computer server for each 100 rooms
1 wireless computer network
1 PC (additional if required for each department within hotel)
1 television set-top box per room
The Magenta WGE platform consists of two major software applications – a PDA software application and the Administration Module software application. The PDA software application is installed on the Room Pro PDA device that is delivered to each hotel guest. The administration module software is installed on the computer server. These two applications communicate wirelessly via a series of wireless access points installed throughout the hotel.
The PDA application is based on the MS Windows Pocket PC operating system and has added security functions. As described above, when they check in, guests are issued Room Pro PDAs and unique PIN numbers that must be used when ordering an item incurring a cost. The details of any purchases are recorded and added to the guest’s bill.
The Administration Module is a browser-based MS Windows application that can be used on any PC running MS Windows. Each staff member has a unique login to increase security and to provide management information reports for audit and monitoring purposes.
The Administration Module applications include the following components:
Order-handling component:receives orders from the PDA and stores them in a database. Once hotel staff confirms that an order is feasible, a confirmation email is sent to the guest and the order is added to the bill. The order-handling component uses an email server to send confirmed orders.
Customer export billing component:allows integration of the solution to a third-party billing system. This allows for guest billings to be seamlessly added to the hotel’s Property Management System.
PDA interface component:maintains the connection between PDAs and the WGE server. Data exchange is based on HTTP/GET method and uses standard INI data format.
Administration web interface:is the interface for application maintenance. The Administration Module is written in PHP4, HTML and JavaScript.
The wireless nature of the system removes the need for the costly, disruptive cable installations of existing entertainment systems that cause many hotels to avoid such updates, which we believe opens a significant area of the market previously not targeted.

Hotel Revenue Generation
We believe that the Magenta WGE technology will be attractive to hoteliers because it will not only enhance their guests’ experience, but it also has the potential to increase hotel revenues. Through the Magenta WGE system, hoteliers can provide, and receive direct revenue streams from, the following services:
In addition, hoteliers have the potential to generate additional revenue through use of the WGE technology as a result of:
Potential increased bookings of guests that are attracted to hotels that offer WGE services
Charges for advertisement space on the Room Pro that the hotel can sell to third parties
Potential increased use of paid hotel services that are promoted on, and that are easily accessible via, the Room Pro
Potential increased use of paid hotel services by non-English speakers, due to ease of access to such services on a multilingual PDA
Customer loyalty and word-of-mouth advertising by satisfied guests
Sales of future product developments—E-newspapers, PDA games, etc.
The Magenta WGE can be fully integrated with a hotel’s existing Property Management System, allowing the hotel’s billing system to be integrated into the WGE and providing additional value-added features such as guest billing and check-out, saving both the guest and the hotel time.
Custom Interfaces
Every Magenta WGE solution is tailored to a client’s requirements. We intend to involve hoteliers at every stage of the design process. All interfaces are extensions of the hotel’s brand, with colour schemes and logos present throughout. As such, each solution is bespoke in both functionality and appearance, but has the same “behind the scenes” technological architecture in order to ensure ease of support and consistent updates.
By creating bespoke systems, hotels are able to extend their corporate brand through interfaces and individual functionality. The modular build of the system allows our third party developers to perform these customizations quickly and cost effectively. We believe that our ability to tailor systems to hotels of varying clientele and design will allow the Magenta WGE to appeal to hotels across a broad range of the hotel market.
Pricing and Revenue Sources
The prices that we plan to charge our clients for configuration and installation of our Magenta WGE solutions will be based on the specific requirements of each hotel client. Prices for configuration and installation of our WGE solutions will vary according to the time and resources required; however, we intend to charge a 20% mark-up on any hardware purchased.
Page 34
In addition to initial installation fees, we plan to charge a monthly license fee for the WGE platform and a support fee, totalling approximately £20 per room in the United Kingdom ($39, based on the foreign exchange rate on January 10, 2007 of $1.93:£1.00) . In addition, we intend to enter into revenue sharing arrangements with our hotel clients such that revenue generated above these fees will be subject to an 80%/20% revenue share in favour of the hotel.
In addition, as more fully described under the heading “Marketing” below, we intend to work with third-party partners to market our Magenta WGE technology. To the extent that these partnerships lead us to achieve sales and revenues, we will provide these partners with commissions or revenue sharing arrangement based on agreed upon terms.
DEVELOPMENT OF MAGENTA WGE TECHNOLOGY
Development Work Completed by Us
As described above, the Magenta WGE technology consists of two sets of complementary technologies, the “New Media technology” and the “TV Extension Platform technology”, which work together to provide a single WGE platform. The New Media technology was originally developed in 2003 by IPlato, a company based in London, England and Prague, Czech Republic. On March 30, 2004, Magenta UK entered into an agency exploitation agreement whereby it undertook to commercially exploit the New Media technology on behalf of licensees to that technology. The TV Extension Platform technology was originally developed in 2003 by The TV Group Limited, a company based in London, UK. Effective April 10, 2006, Magenta UK was assigned all of its rights and obligations in an agency exploitation agreement to commercially exploit the TV Extension Platform technology on behalf of the licensee of the technology.
In May 2004, Nathan Amery was hired as managing director of Magenta UK with a view to establishing a commercially viable sales and marketing plan for the exploitation of the technology. At that point in time, we believed that the Magenta application (which at the time consisted only of the New Media technology)required some major technical developments to bring the software to a position where it would be an attractive product in a large, competitive market. We enlisted IPlato and a Josef Novac, an independent contractor based in Prague, to complete development in line with our development plan.
The Magenta WGE consists of two major components: the PDA-based guest module and the Administration Module for hotel management to control. We undertook the following developments with the goal of creating a product that is technologically superior to competing products:
PDA
Interface improvements – less clicks per function, “softer” look
View bill – allows guests to see their current bill on PDA
Email notification on any menu
PDA check-in via docking station
Increase in image size capabilities
Multilingual menus
Administration Module
- Improve interface – for ease of training due to high turnover of staff in the hotel industry

User guide
In June 2005 we launched a pilot program, which is still in place, for our WGE application in the London Lodge, a 4-star, 28-room boutique hotel located in the Kensington area of London, UK. We provide our service to the London Lodge at no cost, and in return, we have gained valuable feedback from the hotel and their guests that enabled us to complete the above-mentioned developments successfully. We intend to continue to use this pilot program to test further developments of our WGE application.
Current Status
As a result of the above-mentioned developments, both the PDA and Administration Module user interfaces are far more flexible and advanced than they had been, and the interfaces now allow the design to be bespoke for the hotel in terms of branding and identity extension. The PDA check-in facility has vastly improved efficiency at the front desk because a PDA no longer has to be assigned solely to an individual room. Improved management information allows hoteliers to gauge usage of functionality and adapt their particular WGE service accordingly.
Future Development
We believe that changes in technology, increased competition and hotelier and guest feedback will require us to constantly review and improve the functionality of the Magenta WGE application. To date, we have identified the following development goals:
Express check-out: allowing guests to check-out on the PDA
Integration to Comtrol billing system: Integration to billing system that covers 80% of Property Management System providers
Complete integration to a pay television provider
Email upgrades to allow guests to retrieve e-mails from their own e-mail addresses rather than e- mail addresses assigned to guests at check-in
We do not have the internal ability to carry out software development work. Accordingly, we anticipate engaging independent website developers or designers for future software development work on a project-by-project basis.
Page 36
These proposed developments are contingent on us accessing sufficient funds to put our development plans in place. There is no guarantee that we will be able to secure such funding.
MARKETING
We have focused our marketing activities to date on raising our profile in the hospitality industry and hotels within our target market, which consists of the following types of hotels located in London, UK:
3-, 4- and 5-star independent hotels
3-, 4- and 5-star small group hotels (that is, hotel groups with approximately 5 or fewer locations)
hotels located in historic properties
Through careful analysis of the market, we have been aggressively targeting this area of the market, which we believe has until now been relatively untouched with respect to providing WGE solutions. This niche market of independent hotels and small group hotels in the 3-, 4- or 5-star category as well as hotels located in historic buildings generally has been unable to undertake large scale re-cabling of their hotels for guest systems due to the high cost and disruption involved and also due to constraints on alterations to buildings. We are able to offer such hotels an attractive, cost-effective alternative by providing a wireless WGE platform.
Our level of marketing activity has been constrained by our limited financial resources. As such, we have been unable to promote the Magenta WGE product in regional, national or international press through direct advertising or through web-based advertising. We have worked with Chameleon PR, a UK-based public relations firm, to assist us in the development and implementation of a sustainable sales and marketing strategy. To date, our focus has been to raise our profile through a combination of targeted telephone, email and mailing campaigns, web forums, industry networking events and tradeshows. Chameleon has enabled us to gain market presence by mentions in feature articles in major hotel magazines.
Once we are established in the UK, our goal is to launch our services in other countries and move into the global hotel marketplace. We do not have any current plans to expand beyond the UK, however, because we believe that it is important to secure our brand in the UK before expanding to other countries.
As described below, our marketing strategy involves direct targeting of hotel management as well as indirect targeting of hotels through third-party partners.
Direct Marketing
We have identified and reached out to a large segment of hotel management in our current target market of independent hotels and small group hotels in the 3-, 4- or 5-star category as well as hotels located in historic buildings. To date, we have contacted more than 50% of the hotels in our target market. We have issued marketing materials via e-mail or mail to these contacts and we follow up with them via telephone or in-person meetings. Whenever possible, we bring our contacts to our office to provide a hands-on demonstration of the Magenta WGE technology. If hotel representatives cannot come to our office, we can bring a mobile solution to the hotel for demonstration purposes.
Our core message to hotel management is that through the use of the Magenta WGE system, hotels can offer their guests an enhanced experience while optimizing hotels’ existing revenue streams and creating new revenue streams. Our overall marketing plan is based on the following fundamentals:
Page 37
Increasing level of services for guests
Extending hotel branding through bespoke PDA interfaces
Increasing guest loyalty
Providing advanced technology that is easy to implement and update
Providing after-sales support
We are pursuing our direct marketing efforts on an on-going basis.
Indirect Marketing
To complement our direct marketing efforts, we also employ indirect marketing efforts to create a partner network of agents and resellers. The goal of this approach is to reach a greater number of potential clients through our partners’ existing contacts. We intend to develop partnerships with two basic types of parties: agents and value added resellers, as described below.
Agents
Agents are parties that provide us with contacts that will hopefully result in sales. If an agent provides us with a lead that results in a sale, we will provide that agent with a commission based on its level of input according to pre-agreed terms. Examples of potential agents are:
Hotel TV providers
Content aggregators (that is, parties that buy packages from entertainment companies and then sell or license content to hotels)
Hardware suppliers
Satellite providers
Hotel installation experts
Value Added Resellers (VARs)
VARs are entities that provide services to hotels that can work in conjunction with, or complement, our WGE solution. We will encourage VARs to distribute our WGE solution in return for a revenue share and joint marketing (that is, we will promote their products as well). Examples of potential VARs are:
Property Management System (PMS) providers
Booking solution providers
Sound system providers
Electronic concierge systems
Pay TV systems
Golf/health club booking software providers
Page 38
We target VARs who currently have relationships with decision makers in the hotel industry and who would be likely to be contacted by these people when a hotel is considering implementation of a solution similar to ours. We intend to enter into revenue sharing agreements with VARs that would provide for a revenue share of approximately 20% to the VARs, depending on pre-agreed terms. We intend to charge a mark up of approximately 50% with respect to any hardware for our WGE system sold by the VAR. The VAR will take the entire installation fee unless we perform the installation, in which case we will receive the entire installation fee. We do not intend to charge VARs a license fee to sell our Magenta WGE solution because we are seeking maximum exposure.
Status of Indirect Marketing Efforts
To date, our primary focus has been direct marketing to hotel decision makers, but we have entered into an agreement with The TV Group Limited, whereby they have agreed to provide their content via our system in exchange for a revenue share.
In addition, we have had conversations with several other potential partners, and we are optimistic about the possibility of establishing a partnership with a pay television company with extensive worldwide contacts, which we believe will assist us in raising our profile within the hotel industry. As discussed above, however, our current marketing focus is in the UK, and this particular potential partnership is not likely to have any significant effect on our marketing efforts within the UK.
We are particularly interested in establishing partnerships with companies that own technologies that can add value to our WGE product, such as content aggregators and hardware providers. We would like to establish partnerships with content aggregators that have a large collection of content so that we can offer premium adult and movie content through our WGE service without incurring the financial expenditure of entering into agreements directly with content owners.
Similarly, we would like to establish a partnership with a preferred hardware provider, with the goal of being able to obtain hardware at a reduced cost so that we can decrease our hardware price to clients while increasing our profit margin. Although we have had initial discussions with two hardware providers such an arrangement, until volumes justify entering into an agreement, we are using the hardware from both of these providers for development and testing.
Webpage
We have created a corporate web presence (www.magentamedia.net), which we use as an information portal to facilitate our marketing efforts. It gives us an easy, visual way to demonstrate our application and allow potential clients to find out more about the Magenta WGE technology.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We own intellectual property rights relating to the New Media technology and the TV Extension Platform technology that make up the Magenta WGE technology. These intellectual property rights include trade secrets and copyright. We seek to protect our intellectual property by generally limiting access to it, treating portions of it as trade secrets and obtaining confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements from persons who are given access to it, including our developers.
Trademark Applications
First Global Technologies made an initial trademark application for the name “Magenta” in the United Kingdom in 2004. The application was rejected because there were conflicting marks already registered for similar goods or services. We understand that it may be possible to re-apply for trademark protection by adding a distinctive (not descriptive) logo or an extra word or words to the “Magenta” name. We plan to evaluate a re-submission for trademark application with a distinctive (not descriptive) logo or an extra
Page 39
word or words as our business progresses and if we have sufficient funds with which to pursue the trademark application.
Given the lack of success with the initial trademark application and possible conflicting marks identified by our trademark searches, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to achieve any trademark protection for the “Magenta” name WGE application. As a result, third parties might be able to sell competing products with names incorporating the “Magenta” name, and our ability to build goodwill and brand recognition for our products may be compromised. Further, there is a risk that a competitor or other business or person may claim that our use of the “Magenta” name in connection with our WGE application violates the trademark or other intellectual property rights of the competitor or other business or person. We have not received any such claims to date.]
Patents
First Global Technologies filed for patent protection in the United Kingdom for the Magenta application in February 2006. We decided not to proceed with the patent process after research determined that the Magenta application had been disclosed by Magenta UK on the Internet and was therefore not eligible for patent protection.
COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENT REGULATION
To our knowledge and belief, we are in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in the UK. We are not aware of any specialized government regulations in the UK that we must comply with due to the nature of our business. Although our goal is to eventually launch our services in other countries, we do not have any current plans to expand beyond the UK. If we expand our services into other countries, we will have to analyze the government regulations that will apply to the operation of our business in these new markets. As we presently have no immediate plans to expand beyond the UK market, we have not yet ascertained what these government regulations will be and their impact on our cost of doing business in any new markets.
COMPETITION
There are a number of worldwide competitors that offer in-room systems to the hotel market. The competitors that are active within the UK are:
Many of these companies operate in other sectors of the hotel market, such a large hotel chains. In addition to targeting a unique market, we believe that we are able to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by providing the only complete wireless solution, which is less costly and time consuming to
Page 40
implement than non-wireless or partially wireless solutions, easily scalable and flexible in its use. To our knowledge, we are the only company that provides hotel staff with an intuitive administration module, which makes our system efficient and user-friendly for hotel staff. We also provide the only solution that offers a highly functional PDA or Room Pro to hotel guests. Additionally, we differentiate ourselves by building customized bespoke systems tailored to each hotel in terms of branding, look, feel and functionality. Finally, our pricing tends to be significantly less expensive than our competitors’ pricing even though our solution is functionally richer. We are able to offer an attractive price point due to the wireless nature or our system and minimal hardware requirements.
We intend to continue our marketing strategy of creating strategic alliances with providers of other services to enable hotels to have a single provider of services to improve efficiency and cost.
Although we are initially targeting the UK market, the Magenta WGE system has been designed to be competitive in the worldwide market.
EMPLOYEES
As of the date of this prospectus, we had one full-time employee, namely Mr. Nathan Amery, our sole director and executive officer.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENDITURES
We have spent the following amounts on research and development activities, which activities have been comprised of product and corporate development:
| Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2006 | Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2005 |
Amount of Development Expenditures | $Nil | $18,689 |
SUBSIDIARIES
We have one wholly-owned subsidiary, namely Magenta UK.
REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS
At this time, we are not required to provide annual reports to security holders. However, shareholders and the general public may view and download copies of all of our filings with the SEC, including annual reports, quarterly reports, and all other reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, by visiting the SEC site (http://www.sec.gov) and performing a search of our electronic filings. We plan to register our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 concurrent with the effectiveness of this registration statement. Thereafter, annual reports will be delivered to security holders as required or they will be available online.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Effective May 23, 2006, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Magenta UK by issuing 12,500,000 shares of our common stock. Notwithstanding its legal form, our acquisition of Magenta UK has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition, since the acquisition resulted in the former shareholders of Magenta UK owning the majority of our issued and outstanding shares. Because Hasox Inc. (now Magenta Media (US) Inc.) was a newly incorporated company with nominal net non-monetary
Page 41
assets, the acquisition has been accounted for as an issuance of stock by Magenta UK accompanied by a recapitalization. Under the rules governing reverse acquisition accounting, the results of operations of Magenta Media (US) Inc. are included in our consolidated financial statements effective May 23, 2006. Our date of inception is the date of incorporation of Magenta UK, being February 18, 2004, and our financial statements are presented with reference to the date of inception of Magenta UK. Financial information relating to periods prior to May 23, 2006 is that of Magenta UK.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Development Stage Company
We are a development stage company as defined by Financial Accounting Standards No. 7. We are presently devoting all of our present efforts to establishing a new business. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of our development stage activities.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when all of the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence for an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Upfront contract payments received from the sale of services not yet earned are initially recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet.
Revenue from time and material service contracts is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue from fixed price, long-term service or development contracts is recognized over the contract term based on the percentage of services that are provided during the period compared with the total estimated services to be provided over the entire contract. Losses on fixed price contracts are recognized during the period in which the loss first becomes apparent. Payment terms vary by contract.
Foreign Currency Translations
The Company’s functional currency is pounds sterling (“GBP”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in other currencies are re-measured into the functional currency as follows:
i) | Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, |
ii) | Non-monetary assets and liabilities, and equity at historical rates, and |
iii) | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. |
Gains and losses on re-measurement are included in determining net income for the year.
Translation of balances from the functional currency into the reporting currency is conducted as follows:
i) | Assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, |
ii) | Equity at historical rates, and |
iii) | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. |
Translation adjustments resulting from translation of balances from functional to reporting currency are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders’ equity as a component of comprehensive income or loss. Upon sale or liquidation of the net investment in the foreign entity the amount deferred will be recognized in income.

Page 43
Key factors affecting our results of operations are discussed as follows:
Revenue
We achieved our initial sales from the Magenta WGE technology application in fiscal 2005. We achieved further sales in fiscal 2006. Our initial sales have been attributable to sales of a wireless system to the hotel where we are running our pilot program. Our sales continue to be insignificant in terms of our overall operating expenses.
Intellectual Property
We recorded the expense of $1,750,000 related to our acquisition of the Magenta WGE technology application on June 30, 2006 as an operating expense in accordance with SFAS No. 86.
Salaries and Wages
Salaries and wages are primarily comprised of salary paid to Nathan Amery, our sole executive officer and employee.
Our salaries and wages expenses decreased to $54,883 in fiscal 2006 compared to $78,676 in fiscal 2005 because Mr. Amery agreed to lower his monthly salary starting July 1, 2006 and also because we did not issue any shares associated with salaries or wages during fiscal 2006.
Accounting and Auditing
Accounting and auditing expenses are attributable to the preparation and audit of our financial statements.
Our accounting and auditing expenses increased to $52,298 in fiscal 2006 as compared to $21,786 in fiscal 2005 as we completed the preparation and audit of our financial statements in connection with the preparation and filing of a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
Marketing and Public Relations
Our marketing and public relations expenses were comprised of amounts paid to Outlander Management in fiscal 2005 in connection with the marketing of our Magenta WGE technology application. These expenses decreased to $Nil in fiscal 2006 as compared to $30,660 in fiscal 2005 as a result of our termination of the services agreement with Outlander Management on June 30, 2005.
Rent
Rent expense was attributable to amounts paid on account of our rent of shared office premises in London, England. We originally paid these amounts to Outlander Management until we replaced our agreement with Outlander Management with our agreement with Azuracle on July 1, 2005. Our rent expense remained substantially similar in fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005 although it did decrease slightly between these two periods ($11,101 to $10,806) due to a change in exchange rates.
Development Costs
In fiscal 2005 we had $18,689 in development costs associated with expenses paid to third party web designers and developers in connection with improvements to the Magenta WGE application and the launch of our pilot program in a London hotel. Our development costs decreased to $Nil in fiscal 2006 because we completed this work in fiscal 2005 and have shifted our focus to marketing our Magenta WGE technology application.
Page 44
Technical Support
Our technical support expenses decreased to $58 for fiscal 2006 as compared to $5,828 for fiscal 2005 because we terminated our services agreement with Outlander Management on June 30, 2005.
Legal
Our legal expenses to date have been attributable to expenses related to our organization and the preparation and filing of a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. These expenses increased to $23,325 in fiscal 2006 as compared to $1,665 in fiscal 2005 in connection with our preparation and filing of a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
Office
Office and miscellaneous expenses are comprised of general office and administrative expenses not covered under our agreement with Azuracle. These expenses decreased to $834 in fiscal 2006 as compared to $1,866 in fiscal 2005 due to a decrease in expenses related to telephone long distance and computer supplies.
Loss from Operations
Our loss from operations increased to $1,893,016 in fiscal 2006 from $171,491 in fiscal 2005 due primarily to the $1,750,000 expense relating to the Magenta WGE intellectual property (acquired on June 30, 2006) as well as increases in our accounting and auditing expenses and legal expenses.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had cash of $35,242 and a working capital deficit of $73,801 at September 30, 2006 compared to cash of $14,097 and a working capital deficit of $57,424 at September 30, 2005.
Acquisition of Magenta UK
We raised an aggregate of $133,265 in financing in connection with our acquisition of Magenta UK. This financing included a private placement of 665,295 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.05 per share for total proceeds of $33,265 and a loan of $100,000 from Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS and Price and Leyland Capital Investment Corporation. Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS and Price and Leyland Capital subsequently converted its loan into 400,000 shares of our common stock upon the completion of our acquisition of ownership of the Magenta WGE technology application on June 30, 2006.
Cash used in Operating Activities
We used cash of $129,646 in operating activities in fiscal 2006 and $160,897 in fiscal 2005. Since incorporation, we have used cash of $354,187 in operating activities. We have applied cash generated from financing activities to fund cash used in operating activities.
Cash from Investing Activities
We acquired cash from investing activities of $167,751 in fiscal 2006 upon completion of our acquisition of Magenta UK, as compared to $Nil in fiscal 2005. We used cash of $776 in fiscal 2006 and $1,068 in fiscal 2005, which in both years was attributable to purchases of equipment.
Page 45
Cash from Financing Activities
We used cash from financing activities of $11,151 in fiscal 2006 and acquired cash of $121,847 in fiscal 2005.
ABS Global Capital advanced £103,280 ($199,330, based on the foreign exchange rate on January 10, 2007 of $1.93:£1.00) to Magenta UK during the period from inception to July 20, 2005. This amount was converted into shares of Magenta UK on July 20, 2005 which shares were then exchanged for shares of our common stock upon completion of the share exchange agreement on May 23, 2006. As a result, no amount of this loan was outstanding as of September 30, 2006 or is currently outstanding.
We obtained a loan of $100,000 from Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS and Price and Leyland Capital Investment Corporation in May 2006 in order to enable us to complete our acquisition of Magenta UK. Upon the completion our acquisition of the intellectual property rights to the Magenta WGE technology application, Solrod Kapitalanleg ApS and Price and Leyland Capital agreed to convert this loan into 400,000 common shares of our common stock at $0.25 per share. Accordingly no amount of this loan is currently outstanding.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive business activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is to complete the following objectives within the time periods and budgets specified:
1. | We plan to carry out sales and marketing of our Magenta WGE application with the objective of securing sales of the application and necessary hardware to hotels in London, UK. We plan continue our direct marketing efforts to hotels in our target market. In addition, we intend to expand our indirect marketing efforts by developing strategic partnerships with companies owning technologies that can add value to the Magenta product range (for example, pay TV content providers and hardware suppliers). We estimate $4,360 per month will be spent on our proposed marketing campaigns and promotions in that 12-month period, for anticipated total annual expenditures of $52,320. This amount is comprised primarily of a salary to Mr. Nathan Amery, our sole executive officer and director, who will carry out the bulk of our marketing and promotional activities. Mr. Amery’s salary was £34,500 per annum ($66,585 per annum based on a foreign exchange rate on January 10, 2007 of $1.93:£1.00); however, effective July 1, 2006, Mr. Amery has agreed to a salary reduction, such that his salary is approximately £15,870 per annum ($30,629 per annum based on a foreign exchange rate on January 10, 2007 of $1.93:£1.00). |
| |
2. | We intend to add to the functionality of our technology through a series of further development releases over the next twelve months. As such, we anticipate spending approximately $8,535 over the next twelve months in continuing the upgrading, development and design of the Magenta WGE application. |
| |
3. | We anticipate spending approximately $6,202 in ongoing general and administrative expenses per month for the next twelve months, for a total anticipated expenditure of $74,424 over the next twelve months. The general and administrative expenses for the year will consist primarily of rent and office services, technical support and general office expenses. |
Page 46
4. | We anticipate spending approximately $50,000 in completing the filing of this registration statement and becoming a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These expenses will consist primarily of professional fees relating to the completion of this offering. |
| |
5. | In addition to our estimated costs for completing the filing of this registration statement and becoming a reporting company as set forth in numbered paragraph 4 above, we anticipate spending approximately $90,000 over the next twelve months in ongoing compliance costs (auditing, accounting, and legal services). |
These planned expenditures total $275,279 over the next twelve months.
FUTURE FINANCING NEEDS
As at September 30, 2006, we had cash of $35,242 and a working capital deficit of $73,801. We anticipate that our planned expenditures over the next twelve months in the amount of $275,279 will exceed our cash reserves and working capital. While this amount will be offset by any gross profits we earn, we anticipate that our cash and working capital will not be sufficient to undertake our plan of operations over the next twelve months without obtaining additional financing. We anticipate based on our current cash and working capital and our planned expenses that we will be able to continue our plan of operations through February 1, 2007 without additional financing.
We anticipate continuing to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. We believe that debt financing will not be an alterative for funding of our planned activities because we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing.
We have not entered into any financing arrangements and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that any financing we obtain will be sufficient to fund our plan of operations. At this time, all potential investors and all discussions are taking place outside of the United States. We may also seek to obtain additional financing from our principal shareholders, although none of our shareholders have committed to advance any shareholder loans to us. In the absence of each financing, we may not be able to continue our plan of operations beyond February 1, 2007 and our business plan will fail. If we do not continue to obtain additional financing, we will be forced to abandon our plan of operations and our business activities.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
Our executive office is located at Suite 5.18, 130 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, England W1D 5EU. We occupy these premises under a contract with Azuracle, which provides us with office space in shared office premises and administration services, including telephone, reception and Internet access services in consideration of a management fee of £500 per month ($965 per month based on a foreign exchange rate on January 10, 2007 of $1.93:£1.00) .

Outlander Management Limited

The cost to Outlander Management of its shares in Magenta UK was £1,000 ($1,774 based on a foreign exchange rate on April 30, 2004 of $1.7744:£1.0000) .
As indicated in the table below, we did not pay or accrue any fees to Outlander Management during fiscal 2006, but we did pay or accrue certain fees to Outlander Management during fiscal 2005 in respect of administrative services provided by Outlander Management:

As at September 30, 2005, we had an amount payable to Outlander Management of $12,016 for management services. This amount had increased to $13,091 as of September 30, 2006 due to a change in the foreign exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar.

The name of the director in common is Ulrik Debo, who has served as a director of Azuracle since November 2004. Mr. Debo served as a director of Outlander Management from February to December 2004.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
No Public Market for Common Stock
There is presently no public market for our common stock. We currently plan to have our common stock quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc.'s OTC Bulletin Board, subject to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and also subject to the registration of our common stock under section 12(g) of theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Rule 144 Shares
There are no shares of our common stock available for resale to the public in accordance with the requirements of Rule 144 of the Act.

| |
2. | the average weekly trading volume of the company’s common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale. |
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.
Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

Page 51
2. | Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |

|
To the Stockholders of Magenta Media (US) Inc.: |
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Magenta Media (US) Inc. (the “Company”) as at September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the related consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ deficiency, operations and cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the period from incorporation (February 18, 2004) to September 30, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the Company as at September 30, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the period from incorporation (February 18, 2004) to September 30, 2006, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company is dependent upon financing to continue operations, had suffered recurring losses from operations and has total liabilities that exceed total assets. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regards to these matters are discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. | Organization and Going Concern |
Organization
Hasox Inc. (the “Company” or "Hasox") was incorporated on May 23, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 14, 2006, the Company changed its name to Magenta Media (US) Inc.
By letter of intent dated June 2, 2005 and a Share Exchange Agreement ("Agreement") dated August 20, 2005 with Magenta New Media Limited ("Magenta"), a United Kingdom corporation, wherein Hasox agreed to issue to the shareholders of Magenta 12,500,000 Hasox shares in exchange for the 2,075,000 shares that constituted all the issued and outstanding shares of Magenta. On May 23, 2006, Magenta completed the reverse acquisition (“RTO”) under the Agreement with Hasox. Immediately before the date of the RTO, Hasox had 100,000,000 common shares authorized and 12,165,295 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Pursuant to the RTO, all of the 2,075,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Magenta were exchanged for 12,500,000 Hasox shares on an approximate 6.024 to 1 basis.
Immediately after the RTO, the management of Magenta took control of the board and officer positions of Hasox, constituting a change of control. Because the former owners of Magenta gained control of Hasox, the transaction would normally have been considered a purchase by Magenta. However, since Hasox was not carrying on a business, the transaction was not considered to be a business combination. Instead, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of Magenta and the issuance of stock by Magenta (represented by the outstanding shares of Hasox) for the assets and liabilities of Hasox. The value of the net assets of Hasox acquired by Magenta is the same as their historical book value, being $31,939. At the date of the acquisition, the balance sheet of Hasox was as follows:
| Cash | $ | 100,719 | |
| Due from Magenta | | 67,032 | |
| Total Assets | $ | 167,751 | |
| | | | |
| Accounts payable | $ | 23,202 | |
| Accrued liabilities | | 12,610 | |
| Promissory notes payable | | 100,000 | |
| Total Liabilities | $ | 135,812 | |
| | | | |
| Net Assets | $ | 31,939 | |
Magenta was incorporated on February 18, 2004 and is a technology and marketing company, headquartered in London, England.
The major asset of Magenta is the worldwide license (the “License”) to exploit a technology that has created a new software and hardware package for hotels’ in-room entertainment systems worldwide. This software is currently being marketed.

1. | Organization and Going Concern–Continued |
Going Concern and Liquidity Considerations
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As at September 30, 2006, the Company has a net working capital deficit of $73,801, an accumulated deficit of $2,158,644 and has incurred an accumulated operating cash flow deficit of $354,187 since incorporation. The Company intends to continue funding operations through sales and equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the next fiscal year.
Thereafter, the Company will be required to seek additional funds, either through sales and/or equity financing, to finance its long-term operations. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time, and there is no assurance that, if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results. In response to these conditions, management intends to raise additional funds through future private placement offerings.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
| |
| |
2. | Significant Accounting Policies |
| a) | Basis of Consolidation |
| | |
| | These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magenta New Media Limited since its incorporation on February 18, 2004 and Magenta Media (US) Inc. since the reverse acquisition on May 23, 2006 (Note 1).All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. |
| | |
| b) | Fiscal Year |
| | |
| | The Company’s fiscal year ends on September 30. |
| | |
| c) | Risks and Uncertainties |
| | |
| | The Company operates in an emerging industry that is subject to market acceptance and technological change. The Company's operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological and other risks associated with operating an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure. |
| | |
| d) | Use of Estimates |
| | |
| | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on the Company’s historical results as well as management’s future expectations. The Company’s actual results could vary materially from management’s estimates and assumptions. |

2. | Significant Accounting Policies-Continued |
| e) | Development Stage Company |
| | |
| | The Company is a development stage company as defined by SFAS No. 7. The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to establish a new business. All losses accumulated since inception have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities. |
| | |
| f) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
| | |
| | Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less. |
| | |
| g) | Equipment and Depreciation |
| | |
| | Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: |
| | Estimated useful |
| | life (in years) |
| Office and computer equipment | 3 |
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to the statement of operations as incurred. When assets are disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are removed from the financial statements and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.
| h) | Long-Lived Assets |
| | |
| | Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable or at least at the end of each reporting year. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, management measures fair value based on quoted market prices or based on discounted estimates of future cash flows. |
| | |
| i) | Revenue Recognition |
| | |
| | Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence for an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collection is reasonably assured. Upfront contract payments received from the sale of services not yet earned are initially recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet. |
| | |
| | Revenue from time and material service contracts is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue from fixed price, long-term service or development contracts is recognized over the contract term based on the percentage of services that are provided during the year compared with the total estimated services to be provided over the entire contract. Losses on fixed price contracts are recognized during the year in which the loss first becomes apparent. Payment terms vary by contract. |

2. | Significant Accounting Policies– Continued |
| j) | Foreign Currency Translations |
| | | |
| | The Company’s functional currency is pounds sterling (“GBP”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in other currencies are re-measured into the functional currency as follows: |
| | | |
| | i) | Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, |
| | ii) | Non-monetary assets and liabilities, and equity at historical rates, and |
| | iii) | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. |
| | | |
| | Gains and losses on re-measurement are included in determining net income for the year |
| | |
| | Translation of balances from the functional currency into the reporting currency is conducted as follows: |
| | | |
| | ii) | Assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, |
| | ii) | Equity at historical rates, and |
| | iii) | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. |
| | | |
| | Translation adjustments resulting from translation of balances from functional to reporting currency are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders’ equity as a component of comprehensive income or loss. Upon sale or liquidation of the net investment in the foreign entity the amount deferred will be recognized in income. |
| | | |
| k) | Advertising |
| | | |
| | The Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred. Advertising expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. |
| | | |
| l) | Shipping and Handling Charges |
| | | |
| | Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales in the accompanying statements of operations in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.” |
| | | |
| m) | Income Taxes |
| | | |
| | Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the year that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be recovered. |

| n) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
| | |
| | The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that this Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values, unless otherwise noted. |
| | |
| o) | Concentrations and Credit Risk |
| | |
| | The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations and credit risk primarily consist of amounts due to related parties. |
| | |
| p) | Derivative Financial Instruments |
| | |
| | The Company was not a party to any derivative financial instruments during any of the reported fiscal years. |
| | |
| q) | Segment Reporting |
| | |
| | SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” changed the way public companies report information about segments of their business in their quarterly reports issued to stockholders. It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company currently operates in two segments, Western Europe and United States(Note 10). |
| | |
| r) | Stock-Based Compensation |
| | |
| | Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employees’ requisite service year (generally the vesting year of the equity grant). Before January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and complied with the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. The Company adopted FAS 123(R) using the modified prospective method, which requires the Company to record compensation expense over the vesting year for all awards granted after the date of adoption, and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. Accordingly, financial statements for the years prior to January 1, 2006 have not been restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing share-based compensation. Adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) does not change the way the Company accounts for share-based payments to non-employees, with guidance provided by SFAS 123 (as originally issued) and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. |

| | The Company computes net loss per common share using SFAS No. 128"Earnings Per Share."Basic loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. There were no dilutive potential common shares at September 30, 2006 and 2005. The Company has incurred net losses and has no potentially dilutive common shares, therefore; basic and diluted loss per share are the same. Additionally, for the purposes of calculating diluted loss per share, there were no adjustments to net loss. |
| | |
| u) | Treasury Stock |
| | |
| | The Company accounts for acquisitions of treasury stock under the cost method. Treasury stock is recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity (deficiency) at cost, and paid-in capital accounts are not adjusted until the time of sale, retirement or other disposition. |
| | |
| v) | Software Costs |
| | |
| | The Company’s policy is that software development costs related to the product line are charged to expense as incurred in accordance with SFAS No. 86,"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed." |
| | |
| | Costs for internal use software, whether developed or obtained, are assessed to determine whether they should be capitalized or expensed in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement ("SOP") 98-1,"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use."Capitalized software costs, if any, will be reflected as rights and technology on the balance sheet. |
| | |
| w) | Obligations Under Capital Leases |
| | |
| | Leases are classified as either capital or operating. Leases that transfer substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership of property to the company are accounted for as capital leases. At the time a capital lease is entered into, an asset is recorded with its related long-term financing. As at the current year-end, the Company does not have any capital lease obligations. Payments under operating leases are expensed as incurred. |

2. | Significant Accounting Policies– Continued |
| x) | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards |
| | |
| | In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (SFAS 158”). SFAS 158 requires an employer that sponsors one or more single- employer defined benefit plans to (a) recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a benefit plan in its statement of financial position, (b) recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the year but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost pursuant to SFAS 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”, or SFAS 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions”, (c) measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end, and (d) disclose in the notes to financial statements additional information about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition asset or obligation. SFAS 158 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 158 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operation or cash flows. |
| | |
| | In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" ("SFAS 157"). The Statement provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The Statement also expands disclosures about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurement on earnings. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This Statement does not expand the use of fair value measurements in any new circumstances. Under this Statement, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the entity transacts. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company for fair value measurements and disclosures made by the Company in its fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operation or cash flows. |
| | |
| | In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (“SFAS No. 156”), which amends FASB Statement No. 140 (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS 156 may be adopted as early as January 1, 2006, for calendar year-end entities, provided that no interim financial statements have been issued. Those not choosing to early adopt are required to apply the provisions as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006 (e.g., January 1, 2007, for calendar year-end entities). The intention of the new statement is to simplify accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities, such as those common with mortgage securitization activities, as well as to simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like accounting. Specifically, the FASB said FAS No. 156 permits a servicer using derivative financial instruments to report both the derivative financial instrument and related servicing asset or liability by using a consistent measurement attribute, or fair value. The adoption of SFAS 156 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

2. | Significant Accounting Policies– Continued |
| x) | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards– Continued |
| | |
| | In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (“SFAS No. 155”), which amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS No. 155 permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives. The adoption of SFAS 155 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |
| | |
| | In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154,“Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,”which replaces APB Opinion No. 20,“Accounting Changes,”and supersedes FASB Statement No. 3,“Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements – an amendment of APB Opinion No. 28.”SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior years’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the year-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the year- specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior years presented, SFAS 154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest year for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that year rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior years, SFAS 154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. SFAS 154 shall be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS 154 will have a significant impact on its results of operations. |
