Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and amounts due to shareholder. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.
The Company reviews tax positions taken to determine if it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination resulting in an uncertain tax position. The Company did not have any material unrecognized tax benefit at July 31, 2013. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the year ended July 31, 2013, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.
The Company files U.S. federal tax returns and tax returns in various states. All tax periods since inception remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
General
Sedition Films Inc. is a development stage film and television production company based in London. We are planning to produce documentary films, anywhere from 23 minutes (to fit a 30 minute commercial television slot) to a two part series of 60¬minute episodes. Apart from drafting the outlines of scripts for the films, company has not commenced the development of any films to date. The company was registered in the State of Nevada on May 17, 2011 under the name Renaissance Films Inc. On September 26, 2011 company changed its name to Sedition Films Inc. Since inception we have incorporated the company, prepared a business plan, executed an agreement with Emile Lawrence . Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Emile Lawrence is to provide three songs for use in a film 'Kosovo the Mafia State' for a fee of $1,800. The agreement also gives Sedition Films full rights to exploit the songs. The Company has also raised seed financing by selling company shares , purchased assets and registered a web domain. Company was brought to a good standing with the state of Nevada and defined its 12 months plan of operations. Company's purchased assets are in a form of electronic filming and lighting equipment as well as a computer. The camera and lighting equipment will enable Sedition Films Inc. to produce its own material in¬house without the restrictions and costs of hiring equipment. Likewise the desktop, installed with editing software, will give Sedition Films Inc. the ability to edit and copy films ¬ both online and by burning onto disks ¬ independently of expensive post production facilities
Broadcasters
Our plan is to seek British television broadcasters to commission our films. If a broadcaster “commissions” our film this means that it will pay for its production in return for the rights to own the film. In the
UK there are two terrestrial stations that actively commission from independent production companies such as ours.
Between them there are over ten separate channels and Sedition Films will be focusing on the five that actively commission documentaries.
These television stations receive program proposals via an online submission form where a producer outlines the aspects of his proposal such as synopsis, budget, talent attached etc. We will utilize this
online submission to submit our proposals.
We currently cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to enter into any agreements with broadcasters.
Increasingly British broadcasters require that the producer organize between 5 - 50% of the production budget which we believe may be achieved by partnering or coproducing with a distribution company which may be able to plug the gap in a television budget in exchange for exclusive and/or shared rights to sell the film. Currently we do not have any partnerships or coproducing contracts in place.
We may also target US television broadcasters and premium cable and satelite network channels.
Our Films
Our plan is to start developing the following films during the next 12 months of operations:
1. Kosovo the Mafia State: An investigative documentary fronted by respected British journalist Neil Clarke, which examines the grisly but lucrative illegal trade in human organs by current Kosovo Prime
Minister and ex guerrilla commander, Hashim Thaki.
2. The unstoppable Rise of Tyson Fury: We will follow the fearsome and charismatic, 6 ft 9, Irish/gypsy fighter, Tyson Fury, in his quest to become the heavyweight boxing champion of the world.
We have not yet received any commissions to start developing this two films.
At this point we have made contacts with people in the region who will be crucial to the success of our shoot in Kosovo. We are also at negotiations stage with promotional team of Mr. Fury to secure filming access to his UK fight. Company is negotiating to secure filming access without paying upfront fee.
Company has also been looking to secure ‘attachment’ agreement with Neil Clark. However any contractual agreement with Mr. Clarke or Mr. Fury hasn’t been made to this date. At this point it is hard to predict when any formal engagement will be executed.
An amount of $ 300,000 for Tyson Fury and $350,000 for Kosovo the Mafia State will be considered for the commissioned production costs for this films.
Marketing
We will rely on the contacts in the film industry of our president to market our films to secure the commission agreements from the broadcasters. We will utilize 5 to 10 minute teaser or pilot to help us sell the proposal. We will develop and use our website to advertise Sedition Films Inc. as a production company, provide updated information about the status of various productions and facilitate contact with interested parties.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operation and financial condition for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2013. Unless otherwise stated, all figures herein are expressed in U.S. dollars.
Results of Operations for three months ended July 31, 2013 and 2012.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not Applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) as of July 31, 2013 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control – Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, known as COSO. Based on our assessment and those criteria, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting had the following deficiencies and material weaknesses as of July 31, 2013:
1) Certain control procedures were unable to be verified due to performance of the procedure not being sufficiently documented. As an example, some procedures requiring review of certain reports could not be verified due to there being no written notation on the report by the reviewer. Because we were unable to verify these procedures, we conclude that as of July 31, 2013 there were control deficiencies related to the preparation and review of our interim and annual consolidated financial statements, in particular with respect to certain account reconciliations, journal entries and spreadsheets. While none of these control deficiencies resulted in audit adjustments to our 2012 interim or annual financial statements, they could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.
2) Certain of our personnel had access to various financial application programs and data that was beyond the requirements of their individual job responsibilities. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2012 interim or annual consolidated financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
3) We did not maintain a level of personnel sufficient to execute certain computing controls over our information technology structure. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2012 interim or annual financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
4) We did not maintain adequate segregation of duties within certain areas impacting our financial reporting. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2012 interim or annual financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
To the extent reasonably possible given our resources, we will seek the advice of outside consultants and utilize internal resources to implement additional internal controls to address the above identified material weaknesses. We are taking steps to implement additional review and approval procedures applicable to our financial reporting process, and are in the planning phase of creating and implementing new information technology policies and procedures related to controls over information technology operations, security and change management.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. It is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. It also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override.
Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process certain safeguards to reduce, thought not eliminate, this risk.
