with a net loss of $850,959 or ($0.10) per fully diluted share for the

the point that we are delivering the film projects that we have been
so focused on, and look forward to recognizing revenue from these
areas going forward. And once again, with the exception of non-cash
option/stock charges, we have been successful in continuing to reduce
our operating costs while ramping up our primary business units. Now
that we have gotten our first original National Lampoon production,
'National Lampoon's Bag Boy' out to market, we will start to see the
associated revenue. We are also now completing post-production of our
second feature film 'National Lampoon's Ratko, the Dictator's Son',
and moving towards production of our third. I'm excited as we look
forward to seeing the financial results as we expand our film library
and brand."
