FUTURA PICTURES, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2009
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Futura Pictures, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the state of Delaware on December 10, 2003. The Company was formed
to engage in the production and the co-financing of films,
documentaries and similar products produced solely for the distribution
directly to the domestic and international home video markets.
PRESENTATION
The interim financial statements of the Company are condensed and do
not include some of the information necessary to obtain a complete
understanding of the financial data. Management believes that all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, unless
otherwise noted) necessary for a fair presentation of results have been
included in the unaudited financial statements for the interim period
presented. Operating results for the nine months ended November 30,
2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ended February 28, 2010. Accordingly, your attention is
directed to footnote disclosures found in the February 28, 2009 Annual
Report and particularly to Note 1, which includes a summary of
significant accounting policies.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through January 11, 2010,
the date these condensed financial statements were issued.
UNCLASSIFIED BALANCE SHEET
In accordance with the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 00-2,
"ACCOUNTING BY PRODUCERS OR DISTRIBUTORS OF FILMS", the Company has
elected to present an unclassified balance sheet.
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 the
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.
9
DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments
at November 30, 2009 does not differ materially from the aggregate
carrying values of its financial instruments recorded in the
accompanying balance sheet. The estimated fair value amounts have been
determined by the Company using available market information and
appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required
in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value, and
accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the
amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Sales are recognized upon shipment of videos to the customer or upon
website download by the customer. The Company's products may not be
returned by the customer. Accordingly, the Company has made no
provision for returns.
INVENTORIES
Inventories represent finished DVDs of the program, "The 5
Communication Secrets That Swept Obama to the Presidency", that are
available for sale. They are valued at the lower of cost or market
using the First-In-First-Out method of accounting.
PRODUCTION COSTS
The Company expenses production costs as incurred when the costs are
related to videos where there is no historical revenue to aid the
Company in accurately forecasting revenues to be earned on the related
videos.
RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
ASC Statement No. 105, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and
the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("ASC 105").
ASC 105 will become the single source authoritative nongovernmental
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), superseding
existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants,
Emerging Issues Task Force, and related accounting literature. ASC 105
reorganized the thousands of GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90
accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. Also
included is relevant SEC guidance organized using the same topical
structure in separate sections. The Company adopted ASC 105 for the
financial statements ended November 30, 2009. The adoption of ASC 105
did not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.
10
Additionally, there are no recently issued accounting standards with
pending adoptions that the Company's management currently anticipates
will have any material impact upon its financial statements.
NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS
A GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT PLANS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The
Company's current financial resources are not considered adequate to
fund its planned operations. This condition raises substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company's continuation as a going concern currently is dependent
upon timely procuring significant external debt and/or equity financing
to fund its immediate and near-term operations, and subsequently
realizing operating cash flows from sales of its film products
sufficient to sustain its longer-term operations and growth
initiatives, including its desired marketing and new potential film
screenplays.
NOTE 3 DEVELOPMENT STAGE OPERATIONS
During the nine months ended November 30, 2009, the Company began sales
of its DVD, "The 5 Communication Secrets That Swept Obama to the
Presidency". Accordingly, the Company is no longer considered to be in
the Development Stage.
NOTE 4 UNEARNED REVENUE
On August 12, 2009, the Company signed an agreement with Gaiam America,
licensing them the distribution rights to "The Five Secrets of
Communication That Swept Obama to the Presidency." Under the terms of
the agreement, Gaiam America will distribute the DVD throughout the
world to the non-educational market. Further, pursuant to the agreement
the Company received the $15,000 advance on September 14, 2009.
11
NOTE 5 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
LOAN COMMITMENT
The Company's President, Buddy Young, agreed to lend up to $100,000 to
the Company to fund any cash shortfalls through December 31, 2010. The
note bears interest at 8% and is due upon demand, no later than June
30, 2011. The outstanding balance was $70,957 as of November 30, 2009.
NOTE 6 STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
During the nine months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company's
President devoted time to the development process of the Company.
Compensation expense totaling $31,200 has been recorded in each period.
Of this amount, the President was paid $-0- and $16,050 during the nine
months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The President
has waived reimbursement of $31,200 and $15,150 during the nine months
ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and, accordingly, the
amounts have been recorded as a contribution to capital.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
You should read this section together with our financial statements and
related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. In addition to the
historical information contained herein, this report contains forward-looking
statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements are not based on historical information but relate to future
operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking
statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are
inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many
of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change.
Certain statements contained in this Form 10, including, without limitation,
statements containing the words "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect,"
"are of the opinion that" and words of similar import, constitute
"forward-looking statements." You should not place any undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements.
You should be aware that our results from operations could materially
be effected by a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to the
following: economic and business conditions specific to the motion picture,
television, and home video industries; competition from other producers of home
video content; and television documentaries, our ability to control costs and
expenses, access to capital, and our ability to meet contractual obligations.
There may be other factors not mentioned above or included elsewhere in this
report that may cause actual results to differ materially from any
forward-looking information.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our statements, which have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The
preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses. In consultation with our Board of Directors, we have identified two
accounting policies that we believe are key to an understanding of our financial
statements. These are important accounting policies that require management's
most difficult, subjective judgment.
GOING CONCERN. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's
current financial resources are not considered adequate to fund its planned
operations. This condition raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
13
The Company's continuation as a going concern currently is dependent
upon timely procuring significant external debt and/or equity financing to fund
its immediate and near-term operations, and subsequently realizing operating
cash flows from sales of its film products sufficient to sustain its longer-term
operations and growth initiatives, including its desired marketing and new
potential film screenplays.
NON-CASH EQUITY ISSUANCES. We periodically issue shares of our common
stock in exchange for, or in settlement of, services. Our management values the
shares issued in such transactions at either the then market value of our common
stock, as determined by the Board of Directors and after taking into
consideration factors such as the volume of shares issued or trading
restrictions, or the value of the services received, whichever is more readily
determinable.

GENERAL
The Company was incorporated on December 10, 2003. We had no operations
until fiscal 2005. On January 19, 2005 we acquired an option on a screenplay
entitled CASS & KARRI. Additionally, on January 24, 2005 we acquired an option
on a screenplay entitled LIFE-DOT-COM. Both options expired in June 2009.
14
While we continued our efforts to raise sufficient funds to initiate
our business plan, of producing low budget films for home video distribution,
and in an attempt to generate operating revenue, in December 2007, we entered
into a Production Agreement with the Hathaway Group to develop and produce a one
hour television documentary. Under the Agreement we were to receive $150,000 as
total compensation for writing, shooting, producing, editing, and in all
respects completing the documentary in accordance with standard television
broadcast specifications. We were to receive payment in installments based on
the completion of certain stages of the Production. Through November 2008, we
received a total of $50,000 which was recorded as Unearned Revenue. In February
2009, the Hathaway Group agreed with us to cancel the Project with no monies
owed by either party. The $50,000 has been recorded as a reimbursement of
production costs in Production Costs in the Statement of Operations
In November 2008, the Company commenced the production of a 47 minute
"self-improvement" DVD entitled, "THE 5 COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA
TO THE PRESIDENCY." The DVD uses video examples of President Barack Obama's most
memorable speeches to illustrate five essential secrets of effective public and
personal communication. International communication analyst and coach Richard
Greene hosts the DVD and instructs in the system of communication techniques he
created. The DVD was completed in February 2009, and is being sold and marketed
via the internet and through distributors specializing in the sale of product to
the educational market, i.e. libraries, universities etc, and will shortly be
available in retail outlets.
REVENUES
Our revenues for the three months ended November 30, 2009 were $1,885.
These revenues were a result of the initial sales of "THE 5 COMMUNICATION
SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY" DVD. There were no revenues during
the three months ended November 30, 2008.
The cost of revenues during the three months ended November 30, 2009,
was $1,526. As there were no revenues during the three months ended November 30,
2008, no costs were incurred.
EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $15,464 during the
three months ended November 30, 2009 as compared to $31,263 during the three
months ended November 30, 2008.
During the three month period ended November 30, 2009, we incurred a
total of $15,464 in general and administrative expenses. This consisted
primarily of $10,400 of contributed services by our CEO, Buddy Young, and $5,292
of professional fees incurred for our audited financial statements and related
filings. We valued the contributed services from Buddy Young at $100 per hour.
During the same period in 2008, we incurred a total of $18,024 general and
administrative expenses. This consisted primarily of $5,000 of contributed
services by our CEO, Buddy Young, $5,400 of compensation expense paid to our
CEO, Buddy Young, and $5,363 of professional fees incurred for our audited
financial statements and related filings.
15
We incurred $631 and $19 in interest expense during the three months
ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This is related to the interest
charges we incur on our loan from Buddy Young.
While we cannot guarantee the level of our expenses in the future, we
anticipate them to increase as we develop new educational/self improvement DVDs.
NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2009 COMPARED TO NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED
NOVEMBER 30, 2008
REVENUES
Our revenues for the nine months ended November 30, were $7,026. These
revenues were a result of the initial sales of "THE 5 COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT
SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY" DVD. There were no revenues during the nine
months ended November 30, 2008.
The cost of revenues during the nine months ended November 30, 2009,
was $2,245. As there were no revenues during the nine months ended November 30,
2008, no costs were incurred.
EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $58,382 during the
nine months ended November 30, 2009 as compared to $71,101 during the nine
months ended November 30, 2008.
Selling and marketing expenses were $3,530 for the nine months ended
November 30, 2009 as compared to $ 0 for the nine months ended November 30,
2008. These costs are mainly related to the marketing of "THE 5 COMMUNICATION
SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY" DVD.
During the nine month period ended November 30, 2009, we incurred a
total of $54,852 in general and administrative expenses. This consisted
primarily of $31,200 of contributed services by our CEO, Buddy Young, and
$17,482 of professional fees incurred for our audited financial statements and
related filings. We valued the contributed services from Buddy Young at $100 per
hour. During the same period in 2008, we incurred a total of $57,901 general and
administrative expenses. This consisted primarily of $15,150 of contributed
services by our CEO, Buddy Young, $16,050 of compensation expense paid to our
CEO, Buddy Young, and $19,252 of professional fees incurred for our audited
financial statements and related filings.
16
We incurred $3,289 and $58 in interest expense during the nine months
ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This is related to the interest
charges we incur on our loan from Buddy Young.
PLAN OF OPERATION
During the past twelve months we worked on producing a television
documentary under the terms of the agreement signed in December 2007 with the
Hathaway Group. As a result of the termination of that agreement in February
2009, all worked ceased on the documentary. Additionally, we produced an
educational/self-improvement DVD entitled, "THE FIVE COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT
SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY." Given our inability to date to raise the
necessary capital to implement our business plan of producing and co-financing
low budget motion pictures, and the current difficulty in raising capital caused
by general market conditions, management has decided to put that element of the
plan on hold, and to focus its efforts during the next 12 months on producing
educational/self-improvement DVDs whose production budgets range between fifty
and one hundred thousand dollars. Additionally, we will work to maximize the
revenue potential of the DVD that we completed during the first quarter of
fiscal 2009, entitled "THE FIVE COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO THE
PRESIDENCY." There can be no assurance that we will ever be able to raise
sufficient fund to permit us to produce or co-finance low budget motion
pictures.
"THE FIVE SECRETS OF COMMUNICATION THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY,"
has generated $7,026 in revenue during the first nine months of fiscal 2010. We
anticipate that cash resulting from the further sales and licensing of "THE FIVE
COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO THE PRESIDENCY." or funds provided to
us by our president and principal shareholder, under a promissory note dated
February 16, 2005, as amended, will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements
to continue our efforts through February 2010.
If during the next twelve months our revenue is insufficient to
continue operations, and we are unable to raise funds through the sale of
additional equity, or from traditional borrowing sources, we may be required to
scale back our planned operations, or be forced to totally abandon our business
plan and seek other business opportunities in a related or unrelated industry.
Such opportunities may include a reverse merger with a privately held company.
The result of which could cause the existing shareholders to be severely
diluted.
EMPLOYEES
Due to our very limited financial resources, the Company's President,
Buddy Young, along with Joseph Adelman, and Mel Powell, our Director of
acquisitions, work on a part-time basis. Other than Mr. Young, no employee has
received cash compensation from the Company. We have no other full-time or
part-time employees. Additionally, we regularly utilize the services of
independent firms to handle our accounting and certain administrative matters.
If and when our capital resource permits, we will hire full-time professional
and administrative employees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had a cash balance of $1,191 on November 30, 2009. Other than funds
received from the sale of "THE FIVE COMMUNICATION SECRETS THAT SWEPT OBAMA TO
THE PRESIDENCY,", at this time, our only other known cash resource comes from an
agreement with our President and majority shareholder to fund any shortfall in
cash flow up to $100,000 at 8% interest through December 31, 2010. As of
November 30, 2009 the balance owing on this agreement is $70,957. Payment of
principal and interest is due on this loan on June 30, 2011.
We believe that revenue derived from the sale of the above mentioned
DVD, and further borrowings from our President will be sufficient to satisfy our
budgeted cash requirements through February 28, 2010.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Based on the nature of our current operations, we have not identified
any issues of market risk at this time.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the
Company, who are the same person ("the Certifying Officer") with the assistance
of advisors, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in section
240.13a-14(c) and 240.15d-14(c) under the Exchange Act) within 90 days prior to
the filing of this report. Based upon the evaluation, the Certifying Officer
concludes that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
timely alerting management to material information relative to the Company which
is required to be disclosed in its periodic filings with the SEC.
There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to
the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
