RISK
FACTORS AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Forward-looking
statements in this report are made pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company wishes to
advise readers that actual results may differ substantially from such
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements
concerning underlying assumptions and other statements that are other than
statements of historical facts. Forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by the statements, including, but not limited to, the
following: the ability of the Company to provide for its obligations, to provide
working capital needs from operating revenues, to obtain additional financing
needed for any future acquisitions, to meet competitive challenges and
technological changes, and other risks detailed in the Company's periodic report
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS.
Introduction
Next
Generation Media Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated on November 21,
1980, under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Micro Tech
Industries, Inc. On February 6, 1997, an unrelated third party
purchased 85.72% of the outstanding stock of Micro Tech Industries, Inc. from
its majority shareholder for $50,000 in cash. Effective March 31, 1997, Micro
Tech Industries, Inc. changed its name to Next Generation Media
Corporation. Management believes that prior to February 6, 1997, the
Company was a "shell" company for at least five years without assets and
liabilities. Management is unaware of any operating history prior to
February 6, 1997.
Reporting Period Principle
Services
During
the reporting period, the Company operated as a holding company with one
wholly-owned operating subsidiary, United Marketing Solutions, Inc.
("United").
The
Company acquired United on April 1, 1999. Originally founded in 1981
as United Coupon Corporation, United has operated within the cooperative direct
mail industry for twenty years. United has diversified and expanded
its product lines and markets to evolve from a coupon company to a full-service
marketing provider specializing in two communication mediums: direct mail and
direct marketing. United offers advertising and marketing products
and services through a network of franchisees in more than twenty states, with
the largest concentration being in the northeast United States. United provides
full-service design, layout, printing, packaging and distribution of marketing
products and promotional coupons sold by the franchise network to local market
businesses, services providers and professionals as resources to help them
generate "trial and repeat" customers. United's core product, the
cooperative coupon envelope, reaches in excess of sixteen million mailboxes per
year with an estimated three hundred million coupons.
Competition
The
Company's current and future lines of business are highly
competitive. First, the advertising business is highly competitive
with many firms competing in various forms of media and possessing substantial
resources. The direct mail industry is highly fragmented and includes
a large number of small and independent cooperative direct mailers in addition
to competition from companies for whom coupon advertising is not their primary
line of business. In addition, several large firms, notably Val-Pak
Direct Marketing Systems, Inc., Money Mailer and Advo, Inc., are direct
competitors of United in its direct mail marketing business.
Government
Regulation
United is
subject to state regulation as a franchiser, requiring United to file periodic
state registration documents pertaining to the offering of area and regional
franchise licenses. Management believes that United is in substantial
compliance with the applicable state franchise laws.
Employees
As of
December 31, 2007, the Company, through United, had approximately 54
employees. The Company does not have any collective bargaining
agreements covering any of its employees, has not experienced any material labor
disruption and is unaware of any efforts or plans to organize its employees. The
Company considers relations with its employees to be good.
ITEM
2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
The
Company's principal executive and administrative offices are located at 7644
Dynatech Court, Springfield, Virginia 22153. The current rent for 2007 for this
facility is $116,736, has built in increases per year of four percent (4%) and
has a term set to expire in 2012. The Company considers these offices to be
adequate and suitable for its current needs.
ITEM
3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Other
than as set forth below, the Company is not a party to any material pending
legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge, no such action by or
against the Company has been threatened. The Company is subject
to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its
business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may
occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters will not
have material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.
ITEM
4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
During
the last quarter of fiscal year-ended December 2007, the Company did not submit
any matters to a vote of security holders.

Per Share
Common Stock Bid Prices by Quarter
The
ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state
may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of
states require that an issuer's securities be registered in their state or
appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to
trade in that state. Presently, the Company has no plans to register its
securities in any particular state. Further, most likely the Company's shares
will be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly
referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain
requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates
the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange
Act.
The
Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a
market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule
3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock
unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange
meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on
The NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded
from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the
issuer's net tangible assets (at least $2 million); or exempted from the
definition by the Commission. If the Company's shares are deemed to be a penny
stock, trading in the shares may be subject to additional sales practice
requirements of broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than
established customers and accredited investors.
For
transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must have
received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the
purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless
exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a
risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer
also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative, and current quotations for the securities. Finally,
monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the
penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny
stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to
trade and/or maintain a market in the Company's Common Stock and may affect the
ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
Holders of Common
Equity
As of
March 29, 2008, there were approximately 575 shareholders of record of the
Company's common stock.
Dividend
Information
The
Company has not declared or paid cash dividends on its Common Stock or made
distributions in the past, and the Company does not anticipate that it will pay
cash dividends or make cash distributions in the foreseeable future, other than
non cash dividends described below. The Company currently intends to retain and
invest future earnings, if any, to finance its operations.
Transfer
Agent
The
transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is OTR Transfer
Agency.
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.
When used
in this Form 10-KSB and in our future filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the words or phrases will likely result, management expects, or we
expect, will continue, is anticipated, estimated or similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of
which speak only as of the date made. These statements are subject to
risks and uncertainties, some of which are described below. Actual results may
differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or
projected. We have no obligation to publicly release the result of any
revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect
anticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such
statements.
General
Overview
The
Company acquired United on April 1, 1999. Originally founded in 1981
as United Coupon Corporation, United has operated within the cooperative direct
mail industry for twenty years. United has diversified and expanded
its product lines and markets to evolve from a coupon company to a full-service
marketing provider specializing in two communication mediums: direct mail and
direct marketing. United offers advertising and marketing products
and services through a network of franchisees in more than twenty states, with
the largest concentration being in the northeast United States. United provides
full-service design, layout, printing, packaging and distribution of marketing
products and promotional coupons sold by the franchise network to local market
businesses, services providers and professionals as resources to help them
generate "trial and repeat" customers. United's core product, the
cooperative coupon envelope, reaches in excess of sixteen million mailboxes per
year with an estimated three hundred million coupons.
Results of
Operations
The
Company's revenues are difficult to forecast and may vary significantly from
quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition, the Company's expense levels
for each quarter are, to a significant extent, fixed in advance based upon the
Company's expectation as to the net revenues to be generated during that
quarter. The Company therefore is generally unable to adjust spending in a
timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in net
revenues. Further as a result of these factors any delay in product
introductions, whether due to internal delays or delays caused by third party
difficulties, or any significant shortfall in demand in relation to the
Company's expectations, would have an almost immediate adverse impact on the
Company's operating results and on its ability to maintain profitability in a
quarter.
Comparison of the Year Ended
December 31, 2007 with the Year Ended December 31, 2006
During
the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2007 the Company experienced a
decrease in total revenues with sales of $1,354,069 and $7,488,038 compared to
$1,732,231 and $7,950,303 for the same periods in 2006. The company has
continued its commitment to offer incentives to the franchise network to grow
their businesses and, in turn, increase company production levels. Despite
providing incentives consistent with those of prior years, production and
revenue expectations from the core product client base have fallen significantly
short of expectations from client driven beginning of year production forecasts
as scheduled production has been reduced or cancelled. The Company was provided
with a committed mailing schedule of 1,962 10,000-home mailing areas with
associated production of approximately 36,297 advertising units. A series of
unscheduled negative production adjustments from the core product client base
realized in near term proximity to production dates created the challenge of
manipulating a work force positioned for higher production volumes committed to
over the course of the fiscal year. Actual production volume dropped to 1,611
10,000-home mailing areas and approximately 30,046 advertising units. The drop
in committed production translates to approximately $1,025,000 in unrealized
core product non pass-thru revenues. Going forward, labor force size and
utilization will be carefully monitored if production levels continue to
fluctuate. The Company continues to offer significant incentive programs
designed to facilitate growth of existing franchises, and will continue to
evaluate staffing requirements and various opportunities to increase the
visibility necessary to achieve additional network growth. For the twelve months
ended December 31, 2007 the company increased the overall production incentives
provided to its franchise network by 1.5% over the same period in
2006.
Total
costs of goods sold for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2007 were
down from the same period in 2006, $5,666,878 compared to $6,009,928. Cost of
goods as a percentage of sales was up slightly from 75.3% for the twelve-month
period ended December 31, 2006 to 75.68 % for the twelve-month period ended
December 31, 2007. While the costs of labor and core raw materials such as
paper, ink and envelopes continue to rise, the Company continues to build strong
relationships with core material vendors in order to contain cost increases.
Cost of goods will fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to year based on
production workflow and market conditions. These cost fluctuations may result in
the need for rightsizing adjustments to maintain competitive market
position.
The
increase in total operating expenses from $2,033,875 for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2006 from $2,257,372 in 2007 is due, in part, to the 162% increase
in depreciation as a result of the capital asset additions in 2006 and 2007.
Depreciation Expense increased from $99,481 in 2006 to $260,963 in 2007; with
the year over year increase accounting for 60% of the operating loss for the
year. Interest and Depreciation expenses combined increased from $112,945 in
2006 to $424,773 in 2007. From an EBITDA perspective, the increases in these two
expenses alone account for 97% of the operating loss. While this
bottom-line performance is not desirable, the impact of the unexpected revenue
shortfall provided minimal opportunity for any other result. The company
continues to place a strong emphasis on franchise and infrastructure development
and the operations, training & support of its network. Funding for franchise
development and network training & support resources increased 10.4% for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2007 over 2006. In addition, the Company
continues to explore new opportunities that will expand production levels,
market awareness, and market territory.
Total
assets increased from $2,531,711 at December 31, 2006 to $6,004,285 at December
31, 2007 as result of the facility acquisition and a continuing investment in
workflow software and production equipment. Total current liabilities also
increased from $539,351 at December 31, 2006 to $747,492 at December 31, 2007
due in part to additional short term financing of capitalized assets. The
Company uses credit to manage cash flow and build cash reserves. Finance charges
are avoided by paying outstanding balances in full by due dates.
Net cash
provided by financing activities was $3,949,258 for the twelve-month period
ended December 31, 2007, as compared to net cash of $86,982 provided by
financing activities for the twelve-month period ended December 31,
2006.
While the
Company has raised capital to meet its working capital and financing needs in
the past, additional financing may be required in order to meet the Company’s
current and projected cash flow requirements. As previously mentioned, the
Company has obtained financing in the forms of equity as well as commercial
financing to provide the necessary working capital. The company currently has no
other commitments for financing. There are no assurances the Company will be
successful in acquiring additional financing.
The
Company has issued shares of its common stock from time to time in the past to
satisfy certain obligations, and expects in the future to also acquire certain
services, satisfy indebtedness, and/or make acquisitions utilizing authorized
shares of the capital stock of the Company.
Net Income
(Loss)
The
Company realized a net loss of ($518,683) for the year ended December 31, 2007
as compared to net income of $24,034 for the year ended December 31,
2006.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
The
Company has relied primarily on funds generated from revenues, the issuance of
common stock and use of its line of credit to finance its operations and
expansion. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2006 were
$181,196 as compared to $132,909 at December 31, 2007. The net cash
flows used by operating activities was $175,635, as compared to net cash flows
used by operating activities of $97,245 as of December 31, 2006. The
net cash flows used by investing activities were $3,821,910, as compared to the
net cash flows used by investing activities as of December 31, 2006 of 419,426.
The Company has used its working capital to finance ongoing operations and the
marketing of its products.
New Accounting
Pronouncements
In
January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities." Interpretation 46 changes the criteria by which one company
includes another entity in its consolidated financial statements. Previously,
the criteria were based on control through voting interest. Interpretation 46
requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that
company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest
entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual
returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is
called the primary beneficiary of that entity. The consolidation requirements of
Interpretation 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after
January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the
first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of
the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after
January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was
established. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact
to the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In April
2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
149, AMENDMENT OF STATEMENT 133 ON DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES. SFAS 149 amends SFAS No. 133 to provide clarification on the
financial accounting and reporting of derivative instruments and hedging
activities and requires that contracts with similar characteristics be accounted
for on a comparable basis. The provisions of SFAS 149 are effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 149 will not
have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial
position.
In May
2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITY. SFAS 150 establishes
standards on the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments
with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The provisions of SFAS 150
are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003 and to all other instruments that exist as of the beginning of the first
interim financial reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption
of SFAS 150 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of
operations or financial position.
Forward Looking
Statements.
The
foregoing Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Rule 175 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 under the Securities Act
of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding, among other items, the
Company's business strategies, continued growth in the Company's markets,
projections, and anticipated trends in the Company's business and the industry
in which it operates. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intends,"
"forecast," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-looking
statements. These forward- looking statements are based largely on the Company's
expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including
but not limited to, those risks associated with economic conditions generally
and the economy in those areas where the Company has or expects to have assets
and operations; competitive and other factors affecting the Company's
operations, markets, products and services; those risks associated with the
Company's ability to successfully negotiate with certain customers, risks
relating to estimated contract costs, estimated losses on uncompleted contracts
and estimates regarding the percentage of completion of contracts, associated
costs arising out of the Company's activities and the matters discussed in this
report; risks relating to changes in interest rates and in the availability,
cost and terms of financing; risks related to the performance of financial
markets; risks related to changes in domestic laws, regulations and taxes; risks
related to changes in business strategy or development plans; risks associated
with future profitability; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this report
and in documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's control. Actual
results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. In light
of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the
forward-looking information contained in this Form 10-KSB will, in fact, occur.
The Company does not undertake any obligation to revise these forward-looking
statements to reflect future events or circumstances and other factors discussed
elsewhere in this report and the documents filed or to be filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Inflation
In the
opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the operations
of the Company.
Trends, Risks and
Uncertainties
The
Company has sought to identify what it believes to be the most significant risks
to its business as discussed in "Risk Factors" above, but cannot predict whether
or to what extent any of such risks may be realized nor can there be any
assurances that the Company has identified all possible risks that might arise.
Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an
investment decision with respect to the Company's stock.
Limited operating history;
anticipated losses; uncertainly of future results
The
Company has a moderately limited operating history upon which an evaluation of
the Company and its prospects can be based. The Company's prospects
must be evaluated with a view to the risks encountered by a company in varying
stages of development, particularly in light of the uncertainties relating to
the business model that the Company intends to market and the potential
acceptance of the Company's business model. The Company will be
incurring costs to develop, introduce and enhance its products, to establish
marketing relationships, to acquire and develop products that will complement
each other, and to build an administrative organization. To the
extent that such expenses are not subsequently followed by commensurate
revenues, the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition
will be materially adversely affected. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to generate sufficient revenues from the sale of its
products and services. If cash generated by operations is
insufficient to satisfy the Company's liquidity requirements, the Company may be
required to sell additional equity or debt securities. The sale of
additional equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional
dilution to the Company's shareholders.
Potential
fluctuations in quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the
future as a result of a variety of factors, most of which are outside the
Company's control including: the demand for the Company's products
and services; seasonal trends in demand and pricing of products and services;
the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the
expansion of the Company's operations; the introduction of new services and
products by the Company or its competitors; price competition or pricing changes
in the industry; political risks and uncertainties involving the world's
markets; technical difficulties and general economic conditions. The
Company's quarterly results may also be significantly affected by the impact of
the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or other
matters. Such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the
results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others,
it may be that the Company's operating results will fall below the expectations
of the Company or investors in some future quarter.
Management of
Growth
The
Company may experience growth in the number of employees relative to its current
levels of employment and the scope of its operations. In particular,
the Company may need to hire sales, marketing and administrative personnel.
Additionally, acquisitions could result in an increase in employee headcount and
business activity. Such activities could result in increased
responsibilities for management. The Company believes that its
ability to increase its customer support capability and to attract, train, and
retain qualified technical, sales, marketing, and management personnel, will be
a critical factor to its future success. In particular, the
availability of qualified sales and management personnel is quite limited, and
competition among companies to attract and retain such personnel is
intense. During strong business cycles, the Company may experience
difficulty in filling its needs for qualified sales, and other
personnel.
The
Company's future success will be highly dependent upon its ability to
successfully manage the expansion of its operations. The Company's
ability to manage and support its growth effectively will be substantially
dependent on its ability to implement adequate financial and management
controls, reporting systems, and other procedures and hire sufficient numbers of
financial, accounting, administrative, and management personnel. The Company is
in the process of establishing and upgrading its financial accounting and
procedures. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to identify, attract, and retain experienced accounting and financial personnel.
The Company's future operating results will depend on the ability of its
management and other key employees to implement and improve its systems for
operations, financial control, and information management, and to recruit,
train, and manage its employee base. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to achieve or manage any such growth successfully or to
implement and maintain adequate financial and management controls and
procedures, and any inability to do so would have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, results of operations, and financial
condition.
The
Company's future success depends upon its ability to address potential market
opportunities while managing its expenses to match its ability to finance its
operations. This need to manage its expenses will place a significant
strain on the Company's management and operational resources. If the
Company is unable to manage its expenses effectively, the Company's business,
results of operations, and financial condition will be materially adversely
affected.
Risks associated with
acquisitions
Although
the Company does not presently intend to do so, as part of its business strategy
in the future, the Company could acquire assets and businesses relating to or
complementary to its operations. Any acquisitions by the Company
would involve risks commonly encountered in acquisitions of
companies. These risks would include, among other things, the
following: the Company could be exposed to unknown liabilities of the
acquired companies; the Company could incur acquisition costs and expenses
higher than it anticipated; fluctuations in the Company's quarterly and annual
operating results could occur due to the costs and expenses of acquiring and
integrating new businesses or technologies; the Company could experience
difficulties and expenses in assimilating the operations and personnel of the
acquired businesses; the Company's ongoing business could be disrupted and its
management's time and attention diverted; the Company could be unable to
integrate successfully.
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
Comparative
Audited Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007, and
for the year ended December 31, 2006 are presented in a separate section of this
report following Part IV.
ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS
WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE.
Other
than as presented below, there were no changes in or disagreements with
Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
ITEM
8A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure
controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures
include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial
reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar
functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other
personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that:
|
·
|
pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of
assets;
|
|
·
|
provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of
directors; and
|
|
·
|
provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a
material effect on the financial
statements.
|
Because
of their inherent limitations, any system of internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
Our
management, including the chief executive officer and treasurer, evaluated the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2007 based on the framework defined in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO).
Management’s
assessment of the control environment included all significant locations and
subsidiaries.
Material
Weaknesses
Based on
our evaluation under COSO, management concluded that our internal control over
financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2007, due to
control deficiencies in two areas that we believe should be considered material
weaknesses. A material weakness is defined within the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board's Auditing Standard No. 5 as a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely
basis.
|
1.
|
The
company did not sufficiently segregate duties over incompatible functions
at the corporate headquarters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
company’s inability to sufficiently segregate duties is due to a staff
vacancy at the corporate headquarters, which management expects to fill
during the current year. Further, management has increased the frequency
of independent reconciliations of significant accounts, which will
mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until the accounting department
at the corporate headquarters is fully staffed |
|
|
|
|
2.
|
The
company did not institute, as of December 31, 2007, a whistle-blower
policy and procedure as required by Section 301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act.
|
Management
has drafted a whistle-blower policy, and will communicate the policy as soon as
it is approved by the Board of Directors. In addition, management is
compiling specific procedures for the Chairman of the Audit Committee to
independently investigate and resolve any issues or concerns raised. Management
expects that this material weakness will be fully remedied during the second
quarter of 2008.
Limitations
on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our
management, including our chief executive officer and treasurer, does not expect
that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will
prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived
and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control
system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the
benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the
inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can
provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if
any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include,
but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be
faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the
control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance
that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public
accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual
report.

Insurance
Plans
The
Company makes available to all full-time employees medical and dental plan
benefits. Employees are eligible to participate in company insurance
plans when they complete 90 days of service with the Company.
Other
Benefit Plans
401(k)
Plan. The Company makes available a 401(k) Savings Plan (the "401(k) Plan"), a
federally-qualified, tax-deferred plan administered by a third party. The 401(k)
Plan provides participants with savings or retirement benefits based on employee
deferrals of compensation, as well as any matching and other discretionary
contributions made by the Company. Employees are eligible to participate in the
401(k) Plan when they complete one month of service with the Company and have
attained the age of 18. The employee can defer up to 15% of the compensation
amount earned within a calendar year, not to exceed the ceiling set forth
annually by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company matches the employee's
contribution to the 401(k) Plan dollar-for-dollar up to 3% of the employee's
annual salary. Participants become vested in any employer contributions to the
401(k) Plan after two years of service at a rate of 20% for each completed year
of service. A participant is always 100% vested in his or her salary reduction
contributions to the 401(k) Plan.
Stock
Option Plan.
The
Company has also filed a Stock Option Plan for Employees on Form S-8 in December
2001. The Company had not issued any Stock Options pursuant to the
Plan included therein to any employees as of December 31, 2007.
ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
During
the past two years, and as not otherwise disclosed of in any other filing, there
have not been any transactions that have occurred between the Company and its
officers, directors, and five percent or greater shareholders, unless listed
below.
Certain
of the officers and directors of the Company are engaged in other businesses,
either individually or through partnerships and corporations in which they have
an interest, hold an office, or serve on a board of directors. As a result,
certain conflicts of interest may arise between the Company and its officers and
directors. The Company will attempt to resolve such conflicts of interest in
favor of the Company. The officers and directors of the Company are accountable
to it and its shareholders as fiduciaries, which requires that such officers and
directors exercise good faith and integrity in handling the Company's affairs. A
shareholder may be able to institute legal action on behalf of the Company or on
behalf of itself and other similarly situated shareholders to recover damages or
for other relief in cases of the resolution of conflicts is in any manner
prejudicial to the Company.

POLICY
ON AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND PERMISSIBLE NON-AUDIT SERVICES OF
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The
Company currently does not have a designated Audit Committee, and accordingly,
the Company's Board of Directors' policy is to pre-approve all audit and
permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. These
services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and
other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any
pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services
and is generally subject to a specific budget. The Board of Directors may also
pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of
Next
Generation Media Corporation
7644
Dynatech Court
Springfield,
VA 22153
We have audited the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet of Next Generation Media Corporation and its
subsidiaries (a Nevada Incorporation) as of December 31, 2007, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Next Generation Media Corporation and subsidiaries as
of December 31, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

NOTE 1 –
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business and Basis of
Presentation:
Next
Generation Media Corporation was incorporated in the State of Nevada in November
of 1980 as Micro Tech Industries, with an official name change to Next
Generation Media Corporation in April of 1997. The Company, through
its wholly owned subsidiary, United Marketing Solutions, Inc., provides direct
marketing products, which involves the designing, printing, packaging, and
mailing of public relations and marketing materials and coupons for retailers
who provide services. Sales are conducted through a network of
franchises that the Company supports on a wholesale basis. At
December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately 29 active area franchise
license agreements located throughout the United States. The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Next Generation Media
Corporation and its subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation. When we refer to
“we”, “our”, or “us” in this document, we mean Next Generation Media Corporation
and its subsidiaries.
Property and
Equipment:
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. The company uses the straight line
method in computing depreciation for financial statement purposes.
Expenditures
for repairs and maintenance are charged to income, and renewals and replacements
are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of,
the cost of the assets and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from
the accounts.
Estimated
useful lives are as follows:

Depreciation
expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 amounted to $260,963 and
$99,481 respectively.
Internal-Use
Software Costs:
The
Company expenses costs incurred in the preliminary project stage of developing
or acquiring internal use software, such as research and feasibility studies, as
well as costs incurred in the post-implementation/operational stage, such as
maintenance and training. Capitalization of software development costs
occurs only after the preliminary-project stage is complete, management
authorizes the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed
and the Software will be used for the function intended. As of
December 31, 2007, capitalized software costs totaled $411,391. The
capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated
useful life of the software.
Intangibles:
The
Company has recorded goodwill based on the difference between the cost and the
fair value of certain purchased assets. The Company annually evaluates the
goodwill for possible impairment. The Company performed an assessment
of the fair value of its sole reporting unit as defined by SFAS No. 142 and
compared it to the carrying value of its reporting unit. The
Company’s market capitalization was less than the Company’s book value
indicating possible impairment under the test established by SFAS No.
142. The Company determined the fair value of its assets on a
class-by-class basis. The fair values of the Company’s assets were
based upon the expected cash flow from the Company’s business, assuming a
discount rate that reflects the degree of risk involved with this type of
business. The fair value of goodwill was in excess of its carrying
value, and therefore, no impairment was recorded.
Advertising
Expense:
The
Company expenses the cost of advertising and promotions as
incurred. Advertising costs charged to operations for the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $105,340 and $89,912 respectively.
Revenue
Recognition:
For
revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition ("SAB104"), which
superseded Staff Accounting
Bulletin
No. 101, Revenue Recognition In Financial Statements ("SAB101"). SAB
101 requires that four basic criteria must be met
before revenue can
be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence
of an arrangement
exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and
determinable; and (4) collectibility is
reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4)
are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling
prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those
amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated
returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same
period the related sales are recorded. The Company recognizes revenue
from the design production and printing of coupons upon
delivery. Revenues from initial franchise fee is recognized when
substantially all services or conditions relating to the sale have been
substantially performed. Substantially all services or conditions are
performed prior to receipt of payment from the franchisee. Franchise
support of $150 per quarter and other charges are recognized when billed to the
franchisee. Amounts billed or collected in advance of final delivery
or shipment are reported as unearned revenue.
SAB
104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force
00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. EITF
00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or
performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use
assets.
Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets:
The
Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS
144). The Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include
significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a
forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended
period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon
forecasted discounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the
carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of
future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of
the asset. SFAS No. 144 also requires assets to be disposed of be
reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less disposal
costs.
Comprehensive
Income:
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive
income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income
is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other
disclosures, SFAS 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized
under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
other financial statements. The Company does not have any items of
comprehensive income in any of the periods presented.
Segment
Information
The
Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("SFAS 131")
in the years ended December 31, 2001 and subsequent years. SFAS 131 establishes
standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual
financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be
presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS
131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and
services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components
of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is
available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision
making group, in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess
performance.
Stock Based
Compensation
Prior to
the January 1, 2006 adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), the
Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method
prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25,
“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations.
Accordingly, because the stock option grant price equaled the market price on
the date of grant, and any purchase discounts under the Company’s stock purchase
plans were within statutory limits, no compensation expense was recognized by
the Company for stock-based compensation. As permitted by SFAS No. 123,
“Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), stock-based compensation
was included as a pro forma disclosure in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements. The Company did not issue any stock options during the
years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.
Effective
January 1, 2006, the beginning of the Company’s first fiscal quarter of 2006,
the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123R, using
the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method,
stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the consolidated financial
statements for granted, modified, or settled stock options. Compensation expense
recognized included the estimated expense for stock options granted on and
subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R, and the estimated expense for the
portion vesting in the period for options granted prior to, but not vested as of
January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with
the original provisions of SFAS 123. Results for prior periods have not been
restated, as provided for under the modified-prospective method.
Total
stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of
earnings for the year ending December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $0, net of tax
effect.
SFAS
123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if
necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those
estimates. In the Company’s pro forma information required under SFAS 123 for
the periods prior to fiscal 2006, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they
occurred.
Liquidity
As shown
in the accompanying financial statements, the Company recorded a net
income/(loss) of $(518,683) and $24,034 during the years ended December 31, 2007
and 2006, respectively. The Company's total assets exceeded its total
liabilities by $1,335,695 as of December 31, 2007.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and
trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash
investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such
investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.
New Accounting
Pronouncements:
In
February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140” (“SFAS No.
155”). SFAS
No. 155 permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument
that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation,
clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject
to the requirements of SFAS No. 133, establishes a requirement to evaluate
interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are
freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain
an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, clarifies that concentrations of
credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and
amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special purpose
entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a
beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No.
155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the
beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.
The adoption of SFAS No. 155 did not have a material impact on the Company’s
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of
Financial Assets - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS No.
156”). SFAS No. 156 requires that an entity recognize a servicing asset or
servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial
asset by entering into a service contract under certain situations. The new
standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. SFAS
No.156 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
In July
2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for uncertainty in Income Taxes”
(“FIN No. 48”). FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for Income Taxes by
prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet
before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance
on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition and clearly scopes
income taxes out of SFAS No. 5, “ Accounting for
Contingencies”. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48did not have a material impact on the
Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
September 2006, FASB issued its SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No.157 applies under
other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements,
the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that
fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, SFAS No. 157 does
not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the
application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice. SFAS No. 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does
not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
September 2006 the FASB issued its SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements
No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158 improves
financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the overfunded or
underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a
multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial
position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the
changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in
unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. SFAS No. 158 also
improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to measure the funded
status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position,
with limited exceptions. The effective date for an employer with publicly traded
equity securities is as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15,
2006. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material
impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
December 2006, the FASB issued FSP EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment
Arrangements” (“FSP 00-19-2”) which addresses accounting for registration
payment arrangements. FSP 00-19-2 specifies that the contingent obligation to
make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration
payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a
provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately
recognized and measured in accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for
Contingencies”. FSP 00-19-2 further clarifies that a financial instrument
subject to a registration payment arrangement should be accounted for in
accordance with other applicable generally accepted accounting principles
without regard to the contingent obligation to transfer consideration pursuant
to the registration payment arrangement. For registration payment arrangements
and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into
prior to the issuance of EITF 00-19-2, this guidance shall be
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company
does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits
entities to choose to measure many financial instruments, and certain other
items, at fair value. SFAS No. 159 applies to reporting periods beginning after
November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R),"Business Combinations"
("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how
an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an
acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a
business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective as of the beginning of the
first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15,
2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently
evaluating the effect, if any, that the adoption will have on its financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interest in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51"
("SFAS No. 160"), which will change the accounting and reporting for
minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests
and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance
sheets. SFAS No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first
fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier
adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if
any, that the adoption will have on its financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Use of
Estimates:
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with 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.
Income
Taxes:
The
Corporation uses Statement of Financial Standards No. 109 Accounting for Income
Taxes (SFAS No. 109) in reporting deferred income taxes. SFAS No. 109
requires a company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for expected
future income tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the
company’s financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences in
financial carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which temporary differences are
expected to reverse.
Risks and
Uncertainties:
The
Company operates in an environment where intense competition exists from other
companies. This competition, along with increases in the price of
paper, can impact the pricing and profitability of the Company.
The
Company at times may have cash deposits in excess of federally insured
limits.
Reclassifications:
Certain
amounts on the 2006 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to
the 2007 presentation.
Accounts
Receivable:
The
Corporation grants credit to its customers, which includes the retail sector and
their own franchisees. The Company establishes an allowance for
doubtful accounts based upon on a percentage of accounts receivable plus those
balances the Company believes will be uncollectible. Allowance for
uncollectible accounts as of December 31, 2007 was $15,608.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents:
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
Earnings Per Common
Share:
The
Company calculates its earnings per share pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS No.
128"). Under SFAS No. 128, basic earnings per share are computed by
dividing reported earnings available to common stockholders by weighted average
shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution assuming the issuance of common shares for all potential dilative
common shares outstanding during the period. The Company had 850,000
and 1,131,500 options issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively to purchase stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.50 and
$0.62, respectively.
Inventories:
Inventories
consist primarily of paper, envelopes, and printing materials and are stated at
the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on the first-in, first-out
method.
Principles of
Consolidation:
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
parent company, Next Generation Media Corporation and its subsidiaries United
Marketing Solutions, Inc. and Dynatech, LLC for the years ended December 31,
2007 and 2006. All inter-company balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Revised
Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46R”), Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities requires the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity
to consolidate that entity on its financial statements. The primary
beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the party that absorbs a majority
of the variable interest entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the
entity’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership,
contractual, or other financial interests in the entity. Expected
losses are the expected negative variability in the fair value of an entity’s
net assets, exclusive of its variable interests, and expected residual returns
are the expected positive variability in the fair value of an entity’s net
assets, exclusive of its variable interests.
Minority
Interest:
The
minority interest represents the minority or non-controlling shareholders’ or
members’ proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s subsidiaries and are
adjusted for the minority’s shares of the profits and losses incurred by these
subsidiaries. No value is recognized on the balance sheet as all
minority interest holders lacked capital investment in the related
subsidiaries.
NOTE 2 – RETIREMENT
PLAN
The
company maintains a 401(k) defined contribution plan covering substantially all
employees. The Corporation may contribute up to 3% of each eligible
employee’s gross wages. Employees can elect up to 15% of their salary
to be contributed before income taxes up to the annual limit set by the Internal
Revenue Code. The Corporation contributed $34,628 and $34,264 in
matching contributions, net of forfeitures for 2007 and 2006,
respectively.

The
Company has entered into various employment contracts. The contracts
provided for the award of present and/or future shares of common stock and/or
options to purchase common stock at fair market value of the underlying options
at date of grant or vesting. The contracts can be terminated without cause upon
written notice within thirty to ninety days. The Company is party to
various legal matters encountered in the normal course of
business. In the opinion of management and legal counsel, the
resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s financial position or the future results of operations.
NOTE 6 – INCOME
TAXES
Deferred
tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax
liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary
differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis.
Management
has provided a valuation allowance for the total net deferred tax assets as of
December 31, 2007 and 2006, as they believe that it is more likely than not that
the entire amount of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The
company filed a consolidated return, with a tax liability of $0 for the year
2007. At December 31, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carry
forwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $2,900,000 which are
available to offset future taxable income, if any, on a scheduled basis through
2027.
NOTE 7 – OBLIGATION UNDER
