An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with the other information contained in this Offering Circular, before purchasing our Common Stock. Any of the following factors could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects, and could result in a partial or complete loss of your investment. Some statements in this Offering Circular, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.
Limited Operating History
The Company has a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of its business and prospects. The Company is subject to all the risks inherent in a small company seeking to develop, market and distribute new services, particularly companies in evolving markets such as the Internet. The likelihood of the Company’s success must be considered, in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the development, introduction, marketing and distribution of new products and services in a competitive environment.
Such risks for the Company include, but are not limited to, dependence on the success and acceptance of the Company’s services, the ability to attract and retain a suitable client base, and the management of growth. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things, generate increased demand, attract a sufficient clientele base, respond to competitive developments, increase the “RegEx” brand name visibility, successfully introduce new services, attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel and upgrade and enhance the Company’s technologies to accommodate expanded service offerings. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of the Company’s business and its limited operating history, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
2
Need for Additional Capital
The Company has limited revenue-producing operations and will require the proceeds from this offering to execute its full business plan. The Company believes the proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to develop its initial plans. However, the Company can give no assurance that all, or even a significant portion of these shares will be sold or that the money raised will be sufficient to execute the entire business plan of the Company. Further, no assurance can be given if additional capital is needed as to how much additional capital will be required or that additional financing can be obtained, or if obtainable, that the terms will be satisfactory to the Company, or that such financing would not result in a substantial dilution of shareholder’s interest.
Competition
The internet-based entertainment business is highly competitive, and the Company competes with many different types of companies that offer some form of streaming entertainment content. Certain of these competitors may have greater industry experience or financial and other resources than the Company.
Growth Strategy Implementation: Ability to Manage Growth
The Company anticipates that significant expansion will be required to address potential growth in its customer base and market opportunities. The Company’s expansion is expected to place a significant strain on the Company’s management, operational and financial resources. To manage any material growth of its operations and personnel, the Company may be required to improve existing operational and financial systems, procedures, and controls and to expand, train and manage its employee base. There can be no assurance that the Company’s planned personnel, systems, procedures, and controls will be adequate to support the Company’s future operations, that management will be able to hire, train, retain, motivate, and manage required personnel or that the Company’s management will be able to successfully identify, manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, its business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
Dependence upon Management and Key Personnel
The Company is and will be heavily dependent on the skill, acumen, and services of the management of the Company. The loss of the services of these key individuals, and certain others, for any substantial length of time, would materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operation and financial position. (See “Management”).
Possible Inability to Find Suitable Employees
The Company’s success depends significantly on its ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, including retaining the services of full-time employees, part-time employees, and managers to assist the Company in the conduct and management of the Company’s business. Competition for such personnel is intense. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to find these suitable employees or personnel, or if found, that these employees or personnel can be hired on terms favorable to the Company.
Other Nonpublic Sales of Securities Likely
As part of the Company’s plan to raise additional capital and because of the capital-intensive nature to establish a brand name on the Internet, the Company will likely make offers and sales of its common stock and/or preferred stock to qualified investors in transactions which are exempt from registration under the 1933 Act, as amended, in the future. Other offers and sales of common stock or preferred stock may be at prices per share that are higher or lower than the price per share in this offering or higher or lower than the conversion rate of the share of this offering. The Company reserves the right to set prices at its discretion, which prices need not relate to any ascertainable criterion of value. There can be no assurance the Company will not make other offers at lower prices per share, when, at the Company’s discretion, such price is deemed by the Company to be reasonable under the circumstances.
3
Arbitrary Offering Price
The offering price of the common shares offered hereunder has been arbitrarily determined by the Company and bears no relationship to any objective criterion of value. The price does not bear any relationship to the assets, book value, historical earnings, or net worth of the Company. In determining the offering price, the Company considered such factors as the prospects, if any, for similar companies, the previous experience of management, the Company’s anticipated results of operations, the present financial resources of the Company and the likelihood of acceptance of this offering. Please review any financial or other information contained in this Offering Circular with qualified people to determine its suitability as an investment before purchasing any shares in this offering.
We may experience significant losses from operations.
Even if we do generate operating income in one or more quarters in the future, subsequent developments in our industry, customer base, business or cost structure or an event such as significant litigation or a significant transaction may cause us to again experience operating losses. We may not become profitable in the long- term, or even for any.
Limited Market for Securities
The Company’s securities are not currently quoted on any recognized stock exchange or trading platform. Therefore, there is currently no market for the Company’s common stock is limited. There can be no assurance that a meaningful trading market will develop.
The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure related to the market for penny stocks and for trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has recently adopted regulations under this Act, which defines penny stock to be any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $4.00 per share (as defined). Unless exempt, for any transaction in a penny stock, the new rules require the delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission explaining important concepts involving the penny stock market, the nature of such market, terms used in such market, the broker/dealer’s duties to the customer, a toll-free telephone number for inquiries about the broker/dealer’s disciplinary history and the customer’s rights and remedies in case of fraud or abuse in the sale. Disclosure must be made about commissions payable to both the broker/dealer and the registered representative and current quotations of securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Non-NASDAQ stocks would not be covered by the definition of penny stock for (i) issuers who have $3,000,000 in tangible assets ($5,000,000 if the issuer has not been in continuous operation for three years); (ii) transactions in which the customer is an institutional accredited investor; and (iii) transactions that are not recommended by the broker/dealer.
Dividend Policy
To date, the Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its stock and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends, if any, in the future will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.
Control by Existing Management
Under the terms of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada with respect to the rights, preferences, and limitations of the common shares, each common shareholder is entitled to vote on any matters presented to stockholders of the Company. Given the maximum number of common shares offered hereunder may be sold, of which there is no assurance, the present officers and directors of the Company will own approximately 78.82% of the issued and outstanding common shares. As a result, purchasers of the common shares will have only a limited voice in the Company’s management, which is likely to be controlled by the present officers and directors of the Company. As a result, the current management will retain voting control of the Company. (See “Principal Shareholders” and “Description of Securities”).
Proceeds Applied to General Corporate Purposes - Management Discretion
Although a majority portion of the net proceeds of this Offering Circular is for specific uses, the balance will be available for working capital and general corporate purposes. Therefore, the application of the net proceeds of this
4
offering is substantially within the discretion of the management. Investors will be relying on the Company’s management and business judgment based solely on limited information. No assurance can be given that the application of the net proceeds of this Offering Circular will result in the Company achieving its financial and strategic objectives.
No Commitment to Purchase; Best Efforts Offering
The offering of these securities is being done on a “best efforts” basis. However, there is no assurance that all, or any, of the shares offered hereby will be sold. No individual firm or corporation has agreed to purchase any of the shares offered herein. The shares are being offered on a best-efforts basis.
The Company is Entirely Dependent on its Internet Content for Digital Broadcast for use by Televisions, Computers and Mobile Devices, and the Company’s Future Revenue Depends on Its Commercial Success
The Company’s future development and growth depends on the commercial success of the Company’s Internet Broadcast content delivery service. The Company’s streaming service, or other services under development, may not achieve widespread market acceptance. The Company has recently begun to commercially introduce its service for the delivery of digital video (with audio), and the Company’s future growth will depend, in part, on customer acceptance of this service. Failure of the Company’s current and planned services to operate as expected could delay or prevent their adoption. If the Company’s targeted customers do not purchase and successfully deploy the Company’s planned services, the Company’s revenue will not grow significantly the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will be seriously harmed. In addition, to the extent that the Company promotes any portion of its streaming technology as an industry standard by making it readily available to users for little or no charge, the Company may not receive revenue that might otherwise have been received by the Company.
The Internet Content Delivery Market for Television, Computer and Mobile Devices is Relatively New, and the Company’s Business will Suffer if it Does Not Continue to Develop as the Company Expects
The market for Internet content delivery services to televisions, computers and mobile devices is relatively new. The Company cannot be certain that a viable market for the Company’s Broadcast technology service will emerge or be sustainable. If this market does not develop or develops more slowly than the Company expects, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will be seriously harmed.
ANY FAILURE OF THE COMPANY’S INTERNET BROADCAST NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE COULD LEAD TO SIGNIFICANT COSTS AND DISRUPTIONS WHICH COULD REDUCE THE COMPANY’S REVENUE AND HARM THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS, FINANCIAL RESULTS, AND REPUTATION.
The Company’s business is dependent on providing its customers with fast, efficient and reliable Internet Broadcasted content. To meet these customer requirements, the Company must protect its network infrastructure against damage from:
·Human Error;
·Physical and Electronic Security Breaches;
·Fire, Earthquake, Flood, and other Natural Disasters;
·Power Loss;
·Sabotage and Vandalism; and
·Similar Events.
Any Failure of the Company’s Telecommunications Providers to Provide Required Transmission Capacity to the Company Could Result in Interruptions in the Company’s Service
The Company’s operations are dependent upon transmission capacity provided by third-party telecommunications providers. Any failure of such telecommunications providers to provide the capacity that the Company requires may result in a reduction in, or termination of, service to the Company’s customers. This failure may be a result of the telecommunications providers or Internet service providers choosing services that are competitive with the Company’s service, failing to comply with or terminating their agreements with the Company, or otherwise not entering relationships with the Company at all, or on terms commercially acceptable to the Company. If the Company does not have access to third-party transmission capacity, the Company could lose customers or fees charged to such customers, and the Company’s business and financial results could suffer.
5
THE MARKETS IN WHICH THE COMPANY OPERATES ARE HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND THE COMPANY MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY AGAINST NEW ENTRANTS AND ESTABLISHED COMPANIES WITH GREATER RESOURCES.
The Company competes in markets that are new, intensely competitive, highly fragmented and rapidly changing. Many of the Company’s current competitors, as well as a few of the Company’s potential competitors, have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, and substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company does. Some of the Company’s current or potential competitors have the financial resources to withstand substantial price competition. Moreover, many of the Company’s competitors have more extensive customer bases, broader customer relationships and broader industry alliances that they could use to their advantage in competitive situations, including relationships with many of the Company’s potential customers. The Company’s competitors may be able to respond more quickly than the Company can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements.
As competition in the Internet content delivery market continues to intensify, new solutions will come to market. The Company is aware that other companies will in the future focus significant resources on developing and marketing digital broadcast products and services that will compete with the Company’s products and services.
Increased competition could result in:
·Price and Revenue Reductions and Lower Profit Margins;
·Increased Cost of Service from Telecommunications Providers;
·Loss of Customers; and
·Loss of Market Share
Anyone of these could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Company’s Business will suffer if the Business is Not Able to Scale Its Network as Demand Increases
The Company has had only limited deployment of its Internet Broadcast content delivery service to date, and the Company cannot be certain that its network can connect and manage a substantially larger number of customers at high transmission speeds. The Company’s network may not be scalable to expected customer levels while maintaining superior performance. In addition, as customers’ usage of bandwidth increases, the Company will need to make additional investments in its infrastructure to maintain adequate downstream data transmission speeds. The Company cannot assure you that it will be able to make these investments successfully or at an acceptable cost. Upgrading the Company’s infrastructure may cause delays or failures in the Company’s network. As a result, in the future, the Company’s network may be unable to achieve or maintain a sufficiently high transmission capacity. The Company’s failure to achieve or maintain high-capacity data transmission could significantly reduce demand for the Company’s service, reducing the Company’s revenue and causing the Company’s business and financial results to suffer.
The Company’s Business may suffer if the Company Does Not Respond to Technological Changes
The market for Internet content delivery services is likely to be characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product and service introductions and changes in customer requirements. The Company may be unable to respond quickly or effectively to these developments. If competitors introduce products, services or technologies that are better than that of the Company, or that gain greater market acceptance, or if new industry standards emerge, our Internet-based broadcast technology may become obsolete, which would materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
In developing the Company’s Internet-based broadcast service, the Company has made and will continue to make assumptions about the standards that the Company’s customers and competitors may adopt. If the standards adopted are different from those which the Company may now or in the future promote or support, market acceptance of the Company’s service may be significantly reduced or delayed, and the Company’s business will be seriously harmed. In addition, the introduction of services or products incorporating new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards could render the Company’s existing services obsolete.
6
If the Company Fails to Promote and Maintain Its Brand in the Market, the Company’s Business, Operating Results, Financial Condition, and Its Ability to Attract Customers will be Materially Adversely Affected
The Company’s success depends on the Company’s ability to create and maintain brand awareness for its Internet Broadcasting Products and Services. This may require a significant amount of capital to allow the Company to market the Company’s Internet Broadcasting products and services and to establish brand recognition and customer loyalty. Many of the Company’s competitors in this market are larger than the Company and have substantially greater financial resources than those of the Company. Additionally, many of the companies offering similar products have already established their brand identity within the marketplace. The Company can offer no assurances that it will be successful in establishing awareness of the Company’s brand, allowing the Company to compete in this market. The importance of brand recognition will continue to increase because of low barriers of entry to the industries in which the Company operates and may result in an increased number of direct competitors. To promote the Company’s brands, the Company may be required to continue to increase its financial commitment to creating and maintaining brand awareness. The Company may not generate a corresponding increase in revenue to justify these costs.
If Studios, Content Providers or Other Rights Holders Refuse to License Streaming Content or Other Rights Upon Terms Acceptable to the Company, the Company’s Business Could be Adversely Affected
The Company’s ability to provide its members with content they can watch and/or listen to instantly depends on studios, content providers and other rights holders licensing rights to distribute such content and certain related elements thereof, such as the public performance of music contained within the content that the Company distributes. The license periods and the terms and conditions of such licenses vary. If the studios, content providers and other rights holders are not, or are no longer willing, or are unable to license to the Company upon terms that are acceptable to the Company, the Company’s ability to stream content to the Company’s Members will be adversely affected and/or the Company’s costs could increase. Many of the licenses for content provide for the studios or other content providers to withdraw content from the Company’s service relatively quickly. Because of these provisions, as well as other actions the Company may take, content available through the Company’s streaming service can be withdrawn on short notice. As competition increases, the Company may see the cost of programming increase. As the Company seeks to differentiate its service, the Company is increasingly focused on securing certain exclusive rights when obtaining content, including original content. The Company is also focused on programming an overall mix of content that delights the Company’s members in a cost-efficient manner. Within this context, the Company will be selective about the titles that it adds and renews to its service. If the Company does not maintain a compelling mix of content, the Company’s member acquisition and retention numbers may be adversely affected.
Music contained within content that it distributes may require the Company to obtain licenses for such distribution. In this regard, the Company will engage in negotiations with performing rights organizations and collection societies (“PROs”) that hold certain rights to music interests when “publicly performed” or “communicated to the public” in connection with streaming content into various territories. If the Company is unable to reach mutually acceptable terms with these organizations, the Company could become involved in litigation and/or could be enjoined from distributing certain content, which could adversely impact the Company’s business. Additionally, pending and ongoing litigation, as well as negotiations between certain PROs and other third parties in various territories could adversely impact the Company’s negotiations with PROs or result in music publishers represented by certain PROs to unilaterally withdraw rights, and thereby adversely impact the Company’s ability to reach licensing agreements acceptable to the Company. Failure to reach such licensing agreements could expose the Company to potential liability for copyright infringement or otherwise increase the Company’s cost(s).
If our efforts to attract and retain members are not successful, our business will be adversely affected.
Our ability to attract members will depend in part on our ability to consistently provide our members with valuable and quality experience for selecting and viewing audio and video content. Furthermore, the relative service levels, content offerings, pricing, and related features of competitors to our service may adversely impact our ability to attract and retain members. Competitors include multichannel video programming distributors providing free on-demand content through authenticated Internet applications, Internet-based movie, and TV content providers, including both those that provide legal and illegal (or pirated) entertainment video content, DVD rental outlets and kiosk services and entertainment video retail stores. If consumers do not perceive our service offering to be of value, or if we introduce new or adjust existing features or change the mix of content in a manner that is not favorably received by them, we may not be able to attract and retain members. If our efforts to satisfy our existing members are not successful, we may not be able to attract members, and as a result, our ability to maintain and/or grow our business will be adversely affected. Members cancel our service for many reasons, including a perception that they do not use
7
the service sufficiently, the need to cut household expenses, availability of content is unsatisfactory, competitive services provide a better value or experience and customer service issues are not satisfactorily resolved. We must continually add new members both to replace members who cancel and to grow our business beyond our current member base. If too many of our members cancel our service, or if we are unable to attract new members in numbers sufficient to grow our business, our operating results will be adversely affected. If we are unable to successfully compete with current and new competitors in both retaining our existing members and attracting new members, our business will be adversely affected. Further, if excessive numbers of members cancel our service, we may be required to incur significantly higher marketing expenditures than we currently anticipate replacing these members with new members.
If we are unable to compete effectively, our business will be adversely affected.
The market for entertainment audio and video is intensely competitive and subject to rapid change. New technologies and evolving business models for delivery of entertainment videos continue to develop at a fast pace. The growth of Internet-connected devices, including TVs, computers and mobile devices has increased the consumer acceptance of Internet delivery of entertainment video. Through these new and existing distribution channels, consumers are afforded various means for consuming entertainment audio and video. The various economic models underlying these different means of entertainment video delivery include subscription, transactional, ad-supported, and piracy-based models. All of these have the potential to capture meaningful segments of the entertainment audio and video market. Several competitors have longer operating histories, large customer bases, strong brand recognition, and significant financial, marketing, and other resources. They may secure better terms from suppliers, adopt more aggressive pricing, and devote more resources to technology, fulfillment, and marketing. New entrants may enter the market with unique service offerings or approaches to providing entertainment videos, and other companies also may enter business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions. If we are unable to compete with current and new competitors, programs, and technologies successfully or profitably, our business will be adversely affected, and we may not be able to increase or maintain market share, revenues or profitability.
The long-term and fixed cost nature of our content licenses may limit our operating flexibility and could adversely affect our liquidity and results of operation.
In connection with obtaining streaming content, we plan to enter into multi-year licenses with studios and other content providers, the payment terms of which are not tied to member usage or the size of our member base (“fixed cost”), but which may be tied to such factors as titles licensed and/or theatrical exhibition receipts. Given the multiple-year duration and largely fixed cost nature of content licenses, if member acquisition and retention do not meet our expectations, our margins may be adversely impacted. Payment terms for streaming licenses, especially programming that is initially available in the applicable territory on our service (“original programming”), or that is considered output content, will typically require more up-front cash payments than other licensing agreements. To the extent member and/or revenue growth do not meet our expectations, our liquidity and results of operations could be adversely affected because of content licensing commitments and accelerated payment requirements of certain licenses. In addition, the long-term and fixed cost nature of our content licenses may limit our flexibility in planning for or reacting to changes in our business and the market segments in which we operate. As we expand internationally, we must license content in advance of entering a new geographical market. If we license content that is not favorably received by consumers in the applicable territory, acquisition, and retention may be adversely impacted and given the long-term and fixed cost nature of our content licenses, we may not be able to adjust our content offering quickly, and our results of operation may be adversely impacted.
If our efforts to build a strong brand identity and improve member satisfaction and loyalty are not successful, we may not be able to attract or retain members, and our operating results may be adversely affected.
We must build and maintain a strong brand identity. We believe that strong brand identity will be important in attracting and retaining members who have a few choices from which to obtain entertainment video. To build a strong brand, we believe we must offer content and service features that our members value and enjoy. We also believe that these must be coupled with effective consumer communications, such as marketing, customer service and public relations. If our efforts to promote and maintain our brand are not successful, our ability to attract and retain members may be adversely affected. Such a result, coupled with the increasingly long-term and fixed cost nature of our content acquisition licenses, may adversely affect our operating results.
8
We face risks, such as unforeseen costs and potential liability in connection with content we produce, license and/or distribute through our service.
As a distributor of content, we face potential liability for negligence, copyright, or trademark infringement or other claims based on the nature and content of materials that we produce, license and/or distribute. We also may face potential liability for content used in promoting our service, including marketing materials and features on our website. As we expand our original programming, we will become responsible for production costs and other expenses, such as ongoing guild payments. We will also take on risks associated with the production, such as completion and key talent risk. To the extent we do not accurately anticipate costs or mitigate risks, or if we become liable for the content we produce, license and/or distribute, our business may suffer. Litigation to defend these claims could be costly and the expenses and damages arising from any liability or unforeseen production risks could harm the results of operations. We cannot assure that we are indemnified to cover claims or costs of these types and we may not have insurance coverage for these types of claims.
If studios, content providers or other rights holders refuse to license streaming content or other rights upon terms acceptable to us, our business could be adversely affected.
Our ability to provide our members with content they can watch or listen to instantly depends on studios, content providers and other rights holders licensing rights to distribute such content and certain related elements thereof, such as the public performance of music contained within the content we distribute. The license periods and the terms and conditions of such licenses vary. If the studios, content providers and other rights holders are not or are no longer willing or able to license our content upon terms acceptable to us, our ability to stream content to our members will be adversely affected and/, or our costs could increase. Many of the licenses for content provide for the studios or other content providers to withdraw content from our service relatively quickly. Because of these provisions as well as other actions we may take, content available through our service can be withdrawn on short notice. As competition increases, we may see the cost of programming increase. As we seek to differentiate our service, we are increasingly focused on securing certain exclusive rights when obtaining content, including original content. We are also focused on programming an overall mix of content that delights our members in a cost-efficient manner. Within this context, we are selective about the titles we add and renew to our service. If we do not maintain a compelling mix of content, our member acquisition and retention may be adversely affected.
Music contained within content we distribute may require us to obtain licenses for such distribution. In this regard, we will engage in negotiations with performing rights organizations and collection societies (“PROs”) that hold certain rights to music interests when “publicly performed” or “communicated to the public” in connection with streaming content into various territories. If we are unable to reach mutually acceptable terms with these organizations, we could become involved in litigation and/or could be prevented from distributing certain content, which could adversely impact our business. Additionally, pending and ongoing litigation as well as negotiations between certain PROs and other third parties in various territories could adversely impact our negotiations with PROs or result in music publishers represented by certain PROs to unilaterally withdraw rights, and thereby adversely impact our ability to reach licensing agreements reasonably acceptable to us. Failure to reach such licensing agreements could expose us to potential liability for copyright infringement or otherwise increase our costs.
If government regulations relating to the Internet or other areas of our business change, we may need to alter the way we conduct our business or incur greater operating expenses.
The adoption or modification of laws or regulations relating to the Internet or other areas of our business could limit or otherwise adversely affect the way we currently conduct our business. In addition, the continued growth and development of the market for online commerce may lead to more stringent consumer protection laws, which may impose additional burdens on us. If we are required to comply with new regulations or legislation or new interpretations of existing regulations or legislation, this compliance could cause us to incur additional expenses or alter our business model.
The adoption of any laws or regulations that adversely affect the growth, popularity, or use of the Internet, including laws impacting Internet neutrality, could decrease the demand for our service and increase our cost of doing business. For example, in late 2010, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted so-called net neutrality rules intended, in part, to prevent network operators from discriminating against legal traffic that transverse their networks. Recently, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia struck down the FCC’s net neutrality rules, and it is currently uncertain how the FCC will respond to this decision. To the extent network operators attempt to use this ruling to extract fees from us to deliver our traffic or otherwise engage in discriminatory practices, our business
9
could be adversely impacted. As we expand internationally, government regulation concerning the Internet, and in particular, network neutrality, may be nascent or non-existent. Within such a regulatory environment, coupled with the potentially significant political and economic power of local network operators, we could experience discriminatory or anti-competitive practices that could impede our growth, cause us to incur additional expense or otherwise negatively affect our business.
Changes in how network operators handle and charge for access to data that travel across their networks could adversely impact on our business.
We rely upon the ability of consumers to access our service through the Internet. To the extent that network operators implement usage-based pricing, including meaningful bandwidth caps, or otherwise try to monetize access to their networks by data providers, we could incur greater operating expenses and our member acquisition and retention could be negatively impacted. Furthermore, to the extent network operators were to create tiers of Internet access service and either charge us for or prohibit us from being available through these tiers, our business could be negatively impacted.
Most network operators that provide consumers with access to the Internet also provide these consumers with multichannel video programming. As such, many network operators have an incentive to use their network infrastructure in a manner adverse to our continued growth and success. For example, Comcast exempted certain of its own Internet video traffic (e.g., Streampix videos to the Xbox 360) from a bandwidth cap that applies to all unaffiliated Internet video traffic (e.g., Netflix videos to the Xbox 360). While we believe that consumer demand, regulatory oversight, and competition will help check these incentives, to the extent that network operators are able to provide preferential treatment to their data as opposed to ours or otherwise implement discriminatory network management practices, our business could be negatively impacted.
Increases in payment processing fees, changes to operating rules, the acceptance of new types of payment methods or payment fraud could increase our operating expenses and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Our customers may pay for our membership services predominantly using credit and debit cards (together, “payment cards”). Our acceptance of these payment methods requires our payment of certain fees. From time to time, these fees may increase, either because of rate changes by the payment processing companies or as a result of a change in our business practices which increase the fees on a cost-per-transaction basis. Such increases may adversely affect the results of operations.
We are subject to rules, regulations, and practices governing our accepted payment methods. These rules, regulations, and practices could change or be reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and lose our ability to accept these payment methods, and our business and results of operations would be adversely affected.
We accept payment methods other than payment cards. As our service continues to evolve and expand internationally, we will likely continue to explore accepting various forms of payment, which may have higher fees and costs than our currently accepted payment methods. If more consumers utilize higher cost payment methods, our payment costs could increase, and our results of operations could be adversely impacted.
In addition, we do not obtain signatures from customers in connection with their use of payment methods. To the extent we do not obtain customers’ signatures, we may be liable for fraudulent payment transactions, even when the associated financial institution approves payment of the orders. From time to time, fraudulent payment methods are used to obtain service. While we do have certain safeguards in place, we nonetheless experience some fraudulent transactions. We do not currently carry insurance against the risk of fraudulent payment transactions. A failure to adequately control fraudulent payment transactions would harm our business and the results of operations.
If the market segment for online entertainment video saturates, our business will be adversely affected.
The market segment for online entertainment video has grown significantly. Much of the increasing growth can be attributed to the ability of our customers to stream TV shows and movies on their TVs, computers, and mobile devices. As we face more competition in our market segment, our rate of growth relative to overall growth in the segment may decline. Further, a decline in our rate of growth could indicate that the market segment for online
10
subscription-based entertainment video is beginning to saturate. While we believe that this segment will continue to grow in the foreseeable future, if this market segment were to saturate, our business would be adversely affected.
Intellectual property claims against us could be costly and result in the loss of significant rights related to, among other things, our website, streaming technology, our recommendation, and merchandising technology, title selection processes and marketing activities.
Trademark, copyright, patent, and other intellectual property rights are important to us and other companies. Our intellectual property rights extend to our technology, business processes and the content on our website. We use the intellectual property of third parties in merchandising our products and marketing our service through contractual and other rights. From time to time, third parties may allege that we have violated their intellectual property rights. If we are unable to obtain sufficient rights, successfully defend our use, or develop non-infringing technology or otherwise alter our business practices on a timely basis in response to claims against us for infringement, misappropriation, misuse or other violation of third-party intellectual property rights, our business and competitive position may be adversely affected. Many companies are devoting significant resources to developing patents that could potentially affect many aspects of our business. There are numerous patents that broadly claim means and methods of conducting business on the Internet. We have not searched for patents related to our technology. Defending ourselves against intellectual property claims, whether they are with or without merit or are determined in our favor, results in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel. It also may result in our inability to use our current Web site, streaming technology, our recommendation and merchandising technology or inability to market our service or merchandise our products. As a result of a dispute, we may have to develop non-infringing technology, enter into royalty or licensing agreements, adjust our merchandising or marketing activities, or take other actions to resolve the claims. These actions, if required, may be costly or unavailable on terms acceptable to us.
We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will invest future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, holders of our Common Stock will not receive any return on their investment unless they sell their securities, and holders may be unable to sell their securities on favorable terms or at all.
We may issue shares of preferred stock in the future that may adversely impact your rights as holders of our common stock.
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 800,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Accordingly, our board of directors will have the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred shares, as well as the authority to issue such shares, without further stockholder approval. Currently there are no shares of Preferred stock issued and outstanding. We have not yet determined how many votes each share of preferred stock will be designated to a security holder of our Preferred Stock at stockholders’ meetings, for all purposes, including election of directors.
Our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders preferred rights to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividends before dividends are declared to holders of our common stock, and the right to the redemption of such preferred shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of the common stock. To the extent that we do issue such additional shares of preferred stock, your rights as holders of common stock could be impaired thereby, including, without limitation, dilution of your ownership interests in us. In addition, shares of preferred stock could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult, which may not be in your interest as holders of common stock.
We may be exposed to potential risks resulting from requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
If we become a reporting company we will be required, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, to include in our annual report our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford to increase our staff or engage outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees.
11
We do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, our directors have the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.
As a Regulation A, Tier 2 issuer, we will be subject to the periodic and current reporting requirements under Rule 257(b) of Regulation A.
Dilution.
Purchasers of Shares will experience immediate and substantial dilution of $2.67 per share in net tangible book value, or approximately 67% of the assumed offering price of $4.00 per share (assuming maximum offering proceeds are achieved). Additional Shares issued by the Company in the future will also dilute a purchaser’s investment in the Shares.
Limited Transferability and Liquidity
To satisfy the requirements of certain exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, and to conform with applicable state securities laws, each investor must acquire his Shares for investment purposes only and not with a view towards distribution. Consequently, certain conditions of the Securities Act may need to be satisfied prior to any sale, transfer, or other disposition of the Shares. Some of these conditions may include a minimum holding period, availability of certain reports, including financial statements from TV Channels Network, Inc, limitations on the percentage of Shares sold and the way they are sold. TV Channels Network, Inc can prohibit any sale, transfer, or disposition unless it receives an opinion of counsel provided at the holder’s expense, in a form satisfactory to TV Channels Network, Inc, stating that the proposed sale, transfer or other disposition will not result in a violation of applicable federal or state securities laws and regulations. No public market exists for the Shares and no market is expected to develop. Consequently, owners of the Shares may have to hold their investment indefinitely and may not be able to liquidate their investments in TV Channels Network, Inc or pledge them as collateral for a loan in the event of an emergency.
Broker/Dealer Sales of Shares
The Company’s Common Stock Shares are not presently included for trading on any exchange, and there can be no assurances that the Company will ultimately be registered on any exchange. The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. has recently enacted certain changes to the entry and maintenance criteria for listing eligibility on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. The entry standards require at least $4 million in net tangible assets or $750,000 net income in two of the last three years. The proposed entry standards would also require a public float of at least $1 million shares, $5 million value of public float, a minimum bid price of $2.00 per share, at least three market makers, and at least 300 shareholders. The maintenance standards (as opposed to entry standards) require at least $2 million in net tangible assets or $500,000 in net income in two of the last three years, a public float of at least 500,000 shares, a $1 million market value of public float, a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, at least two market makers, and at least 300 shareholders.
No assurance can be given that the Common Stock Share of the Company will ever qualify for inclusion on the NASDAQ System or any other trading market until such time as the Management deem it necessary. As a result, the Company’s Common Stock Shares are covered by a Securities and Exchange Commission rule that opposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s securities and will also affect the ability of shareholders to sell their Shares in the secondary market.
No Current Market For Shares
There is no current market for the Shares offered in this offering and no market is expected to develop in the near future.
12
Compliance with Securities Laws
The Shares are being offered for sale in reliance upon certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, applicable Nevada Securities Laws, and other applicable state securities laws. If the sale of Shares were to fail to qualify for these exemptions, purchasers may seek rescission of their purchases of Shares. If several purchasers were to obtain rescission, TV Channels Network, Inc would face significant financial demands, which could adversely affect TV Channels Network, Inc as a whole, as well as any non-rescinding purchasers.
Offering Price
The price of the Shares offered has been arbitrarily established by TV Channels Network, Inc, considering such matters as the state of the Company’s business development and the general condition of the industry in which it operates. The Offering price bears little relationship to the assets, net worth, or any other objective criteria of value applicable to TV Channels Network, Inc.
Lack of Firm Underwriter
The Shares are offered on a “best efforts” basis by the Management of TV Channels Network, Inc without compensation and on a “best efforts” basis through certain FINRA registered broker-dealers, which enter into Participating Broker-Dealer Agreements with the Company. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the Company, or any FINRA broker-dealer, will sell the maximum Shares offered or any lesser amount.
Projections: Forward Looking Information
Management has prepared projections regarding TV Channels Network, Inc’ anticipated financial performance. The Company’s projections are hypothetical and based upon the presumed financial performance of the Company, the addition of a sophisticated and well-funded marketing plan, and other factors influencing the business of TV Channels Network, Inc. The projections are based on Management’s best estimate of the probable results of operations of the Company, based on present circumstances, and have not been reviewed by TV Channels Network, Inc’ independent accountants. These projections are based on several assumptions, set forth therein, which Management believes are reasonable. Some assumptions upon which the projections are based, however, invariably will not materialize due the inevitable occurrence of unanticipated events and circumstances beyond Management’s control. Therefore, actual results of operations will vary from the projections, and such variances may be material. Assumptions regarding future changes in sales and revenues are necessarily speculative in nature. In addition, projections do not and cannot consider such factors as general economic conditions, unforeseen regulatory changes, the entry into TV Channels Network, Inc’ market of additional competitors, the terms and conditions of future capitalization, and other risks inherent to the Company’s business. While Management believes that the projections accurately reflect possible future results of TV Channels Network, Inc’ operations, those results cannot be guaranteed.
If you purchase shares in this Offering, your ownership interest in our Common Stock will be diluted immediately, to the extent of the difference between the price to the public charged for each share in this Offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after this Offering.
Future Dilution
Dilution may also result from future actions by our Company, and specifically from any increase in the number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding resulting from a stock offering (such as a public offering, a crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, or an angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or conversion of certain instruments (such as convertible bonds, preferred shares, or warrants) into stock.
If we decide to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if we offer dividends, and most early-stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the Company).
13
Dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes into shares. Typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors, i.e., they get more shares than the new investors would for the same price. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes get more shares for their money than new investors. In the event that the financing is a “down round” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do, because they get more shares for their money. Investors should pay careful attention to the number of convertible notes that the company has issued (and may issue in the future), and the terms of those notes.
If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of our Company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by us. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

Strategy and Implementation
Business Model
The Company’s primary business is to develop and market world-class entertainment content, including but not limited to full-length concerts, movies, and television shows. This will be accomplished by aggressive deployment and branding of the Company’s state-of-the-art technologies to bring superior, cost-effective solutions to consumers in need of these services.
Through the Company’s web site, customers will be offered designated services. These services are transactional in nature with add-on options based on the sender’s requirements. Options are priced to increase the overall amount per transaction whereby the overall margin is significantly increased.
By being a web-based business, our business model is based on volume. Through automation of transactions inherent in the technologies employed, the low cost of transactions maintains a high gross margin. Our business can run 24 hours a day, seven days a week with the minimal staff needed to operate the business. Most business activities are automated, which greatly reduces the related overhead and staffing components associated with similar, conventional business formats.
The Company’s corporate development is focused on its core business and is structured to accomplish its initial business objectives over a three-year period. The Company has defined seven business divisions: systems operations and management; information technologies; sales and marketing; customer service; service development; business development; and general administration. Additional revenue streams will be added as new products and services are proven to be viable and are integrated into the network.
The Company also intends to devote resources to developing a consumer market with new specific services designed for the consumer, home-based businesses, and small business owners.
Business Growth Strategy
The key to the Company’s business growth strategy is customer acquisition. The Company’s initial operations are based in the United States. Being an Internet-based business, technical operations can be maintained separately from corporate operations. This will all be aligned with the Company’s basic financial philosophy of controlling costs as sales revenue grows through the expansion of the web site operations.
The Company will focus on the core business over the first three years to establish a significant market share in multiple industry segments. Other products and services may be implemented after proper feasibility, cost analysis and in-depth market and customer research.
Marketing
Marketing Strategy
The marketing strategy is simple and direct.
·Consumers will be marketed through the internet, magazines, and other electronic and print media.
·Targeted groups will be marketed by the branding of our name and logo through specific media channels focused on direct marketing campaigns, electronic media, trade shows, industry publications, newspapers, and other industry specific events, as well as traditional distribution channels.
Web Site and Internet Presence
The Company’s Web Sites https://tvchannelsnetwork.com/ will function as a main marketing tool (beyond its obvious function of conducting the business for products and services). These sites will act as a hub for the business and are international in scope. The sites will offer customers ease of use, clear and simple navigation, security, and prompt response to transactions.
The websites will also feature sections for promotions and joint venture and cross-branding marketing campaigns with partners. The web sites will function 24/7 and be a customer service portal. Being that the web site is
22
the business, and customer impression is made through its pages, strict attention to detail, communicative proposition, and graphic design are critical. Additionally, drawing attention to the green benefits of the product will stimulate environmentally concerned consumers.
Smart Phone, Tablet, and Mobile Applications
These applications are critical to the future of the Company. There will be a large user base that will use our services strictly through their mobile devices. These applications are significant in that they fit with the growing trend of mobile users who demand synchronization of services (with their account) with multiple digital devices. This is especially true with business users who no longer work from physical offices and are part of the new virtual business economy.
Even more significant is we will be able to develop users and customers who use multiple communications platforms and networks outside of our web based and internet services.
Social Media and Business Networks
The impact of social networks (Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, and Google) and business networks (LinkedIn, Salesforce) in today’s communications is huge. The Company’s ability as a communication utility to these networks represents hundreds of millions of users globally. Through the development of applications specifically for these networks, the Company will be able to cross platform its services into consumer and business user awareness.
The marketing on these networks is just one avenue to acquire users, but by combining the Company’s network specific applications to the process, this creates a whole new user dynamic. When you include components of music, media, and video to the delivery options of these users (private, secure, and verified delivery) by a “trusted third party” only goes to strengthen our brand recognition.
Direct Sales
The Company will engage industry specific national sales and marketing groups to promote its products and services. Corporate discounts and promotions will be instituted to target business customers and consumers.
Media Exposure
The Company will also develop national and international marketing campaigns through trade magazines, trade shows, articles, press releases, contracted public relations, a concise advertising campaign to generate brand awareness and impressions, electronic and print vehicles, and other media venues and events.
Competition
Our major competitors include such diverse companies as Amazon Prime, Hulu, DIRECTV Now, Live Nation, Clear Channel, and Netflix, among others. Many of our competitors have much larger customer bases and financial resources than TV Channels Network Inc.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, whose actual outcomes involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those stated in or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Offering Circular.

The Company has enough capital to last up to and through the offering, to sustain its current operations. The Company has no bank lines or other financing arranged. We believe that the proceeds from the offering, together with our cash and cash equivalent balances will be adequate to meet our liquidity and capital expenditure requirements for the next 36 months. We anticipate that we will need at least $20,000,000 to attain significant business growth. In the future, we may need to seek additional capital, potentially through bonds, or convertible notes to fund our plan of operations.

Key Man Insurance

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In the ordinary course of our business, we are not exposed to market risk of the sort that may arise from changes in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates, or that may otherwise arise from transactions in derivatives.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation, the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Rule 144 provides, in essence, that a person holding restricted securities for one year from the date the securities were purchased from the issuer, or an affiliate of the issuer, and fully paid, may sell limited quantities of the securities to the public without registration, provided there shall be certain public information with respect to the issuer.

The Company is unable to predict the effect, if any, that sales of shares under Rule 144 (or the potential for such sales), sales pursuant to future registration statements or other sales or potential sales may have on the market prices of the common stock prevailing from time to time. Future sales of substantial numbers of additional shares of common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock of the Company.

The Company intends to retain its earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of its business and for other general corporate purposes. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other factors, the Company’s earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness, contractual restrictions with respect to the payment of dividends and other considerations that the Board of Directors deems relevant. (See “Risk Factors – Lack of Cash Dividends”).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the members of TV Channels Network Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying Balance Sheet of TV Channels Network Inc (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, the related Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), Statement of Cash Flow and Statements of Shareholders’ Equity, for fiscal year in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal year in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of United States of America
(“US GAAP”).
The financials statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31,2022 were audited by another auditor whose report dated May 3, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. The report stated is on the financials statement prior to the adjustments as discussed in Note 2.10 Restatement of previously issued Financial Statements. We audited the adjustments as described in Note 2.10 Restatement of previously issued Financial Statements that were applied to restate the 2022 financial statements. In our opinion such adjustments have been properly applied.
Matters related to Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, if the Company is unable to raise funds to alleviate liquidity needs, it may be required to reduce the scope of its planned development. The Company has a limited operating history, and its continued growth is dependent upon the start of selling its services; hence generating revenues and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3 to the Financial Statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Responsibilities of the Management for the Financial Statements
These financial Statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. In preparing the financial Statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The company is not required to have, nor we have engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.
F-1
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that:
(1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and
(2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1.Basis of Presentation
The Company has earned no revenues from limited principal operations. Accordingly, the Company’s activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Enterprise” as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7 (“SFAS 7”). Among the disclosures required by SFAS 7 are that the Company’s financial statements be identified as those of a development stage company and that the statements of operations, shareholders equity (deficit), and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company’s inception. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
2.2.Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
F-7
Management evaluates the estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and believes those estimates and assumptions are reasonable based on the information available to them.
2.3.Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 presentation to make them consistent with 2023.
2.4.Cash
The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
2.5.Software
The Company is developing a website that manages the library of the movies and the customer subscriptions, any amount paid toward the development of the website is capitalized. During 2023, the software is tested for impairment and is carried at cost less impairment loss.
2.6.Fair value of financial instruments
We value our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.
ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:
Level 1 input, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.
2.7.Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax benefit differs from the expected income tax benefit by applying the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21% to net income (loss) as follows:
Deferred Tax has not been recognized by the company since the company has not yet started operations and hence realizability is assessed as NIL.
2.8.Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

2.10.Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
During the course of the Independent Audit of the Company’s fiscal year December 31, 2023 along with already audited comparative figures of December 31, 2022, the financial statements, the Company’s Auditor identified errors that were determined to be material in the financial year ended December 31, 2022 financial statements which were required to be restated in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
As a result, the Company has restated the balance as of December 31, 2022 and the corresponding opening reserves as at 1st January 2023, in accordance with ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (the “restated financial statements”).
Description of Restatement
a. Operating Expenses
Adjustments were required for operating expenses (business registration charges) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and the corresponding retained earnings as at January 1, 2023. The change addressed the identified under-reporting of expenses incurred but omitted to be accounted. The error understated the previously reported operating expenses by $1,025 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

3.GOING CONCERN
The Company currently has limited operations. The 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 the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $7,753 as of December 31, 2023 and $1,547 as of December 31, 2022. The Company has a limited operating history, and its continued growth is dependent upon the start of selling its services; hence generating revenues and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenues. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenues, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity or debt instruments to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
4.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Related party loans and due to CEO were $3,574 and $1,025 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The related party amounts are funds borrowed to fund the Company’s daily operations. The loans are non-interest bearing with no maturity date, due on demand, and no covenants. The loans arose from a related party and member of management.
5.COMMON STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue 800,000,000 of common shares with no par value, and any amount paid is considered as Additional Paid In Capital. As of December 31, 2022, the company had issued 32,028,000 shares. During the current year 6,493,700 shares are fresh issued and as of December 31, 2023, the company had issued 38,521,700 shares.
6.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
There are no commitments and no contingent liabilities outstanding as at 31st December 2023 and 31st December 2022.
7.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through April 29, 2024 which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. No other matters were identified affecting the accompanying financial statements and related disclosures.
