The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2015 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2015, and the results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the statement of shareholders equity (deficiency) for the three months ended March 15, 2015 and the statements of cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 has been derived from the Companys audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Companys Form 10-K/A which was filed on April 3, 2015.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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(s) of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period(s).
Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Companys critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements were:
(i) Assumption as a going concern: Management assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business;
(ii) Fair value of long-lived assets: Fair value is generally determined using the assets expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives. The Company evaluates acquired assets for potential impairment indicators at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such events.
(iii) Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets: Management assumes that the realization of the Companys net deferred tax assets resulting from its net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes that may be offset against future taxable income was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are offset by a full valuation allowance. Management made this assumption based on (a) the Company has incurred recurring losses, (b) general economic conditions, and (c) its ability to raise additional funds to support its daily operations by way of a public or private offering, among other factors.
(iv) Estimates and assumptions used in valuation of equity instruments: Management estimates expected term of share warrants and similar instruments, expected volatility of the Companys common shares and the method used to estimate it, expected annual rate of quarterly dividends, and risk free rate(s) to value share options and similar instruments.
These significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to these estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation
The Company applies the guidance of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810 Consolidation to determine whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to this guidance, with certain exceptions, all majority-owned or all entities in which a parent has a controlling financial interest shall be consolidated. Pursuant to ASC 810, the usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by court decree.
The Companys consolidated subsidiaries are as follows:
Name of consolidated subsidiary or entity | State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization | Date of incorporation or formation (date of acquisition, if applicable) | Attributable interest |
|
|
|
|
York Productions, LLC | The State of Florida | October 22, 2008 (June 1, 2010) | 60% |
|
|
|
|
York Productions II, LLC | The State of Florida | June 13, 2013 | 60% |
|
|
|
|
S&G Holdings, Inc. | The State of Tennessee | January 4, 2005 (December 24, 2013) | 75% |
The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, S&G Holdings and York as of the reporting period ending date(s) and for the reporting period(s) then ended.
All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Business Combinations
The Company applies ASC 805 Business Combinations for transactions that represent business combinations to be accounted for under the acquisition method. Pursuant to ASC 805 in order for a transaction or other event to be considered as a business combination it is required that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. Upon determination of transactions representing business combinations the Company then (i) identifies the accounting acquirer; (ii) identifies and estimates the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, separately from goodwill; (iii) estimates the business enterprise value of the acquired entities; (iv) allocates the purchase price of acquired entities to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the liabilities assumed and the purchase price over the assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and the excess of the assets acquired over the liabilities assumed and the purchase price was recorded as a gain from bargain purchase.
Inherent Risk in the Estimates
Management makes estimates of fair values based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies. Critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include but are not limited to: future expected cash flows from revenues, customer relationships, key management and market positions, assumptions about the period of time the acquired trade names will continue to be used in the Companys combined portfolio of products and/or services, and discount rates used to establish fair value. These estimates are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC 820Fair Value Measurements establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of financial instruments and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined are as follows:
9
Level 1 |
| Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2 |
| Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3 |
| Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Companys financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, other receivable, accounts payable and accrued payroll, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arms-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arms-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
Carrying Value, Recoverability and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company has adopted ASC 360 for its long-lived assets. The Companys long-lived assets, which include computer equipment and goodwill are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
The Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. Fair value is generally determined using the assets expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives.
The Company evaluates acquired assets for potential impairment indicators at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such events.
Management will periodically review the recoverability of the capitalized movie pilot costs. Management takes into consideration various information. If it is determined that a project or property will be abandoned, or its carrying value impaired, a provision will be made for any expected loss on the project or property.
The impairment charges, if any, is included in operating expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over the assets estimated useful lives of five (5) years. Upon sale or retirement of computer equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Capitalized Movie Pilot Costs - Film Property and Screenplay Rights
The Company capitalizes costs it incurs to buy film or transcripts that will later be marketed or be used in the production of films according to ASC 926, Entertainment Films. The Company will begin to amortize capitalized film cost when a film is released and it begins to recognize revenue from the film.
10
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of the net assets at the date of acquisition. Under the provisions of ASC 350, goodwill acquired in a business combination with indefinite useful lives are not amortized; rather, goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired.
Related Parties
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 850 relating to the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Our financial statements include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. The disclosures include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitment and Contingencies
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 450 when accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Companys consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time, that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Companys business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.
Non-Controlling Interest
The Company reports the non-controlling interest in its majority owned subsidiaries in the consolidated balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Companys stockholders equity. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holders proportionate share of the equity of the Companys majority-owned subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holders proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss) and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. In addition to the aforementioned general policy, the following is the specific revenue recognition policy.
Revenues from the sale of programming for television and other media are recognized when
·
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
·
The show/episode is complete, and in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery;
·
The price to the customer is fixed and determinable; and
·
Collectability is reasonably assured.

Stock-Based Compensation for Obtaining Employee Services
The Company accounts for its stock based compensation in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under the recognition and measurement principles of the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718. Accordingly, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
The fair value of share options and similar instruments is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The ranges of assumptions for inputs are as follows:
·
Expected term of share options and similar instruments: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period of time the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding. The expected term of share options and similar instruments represents the period of time the options and similar instruments are expected to be outstanding taking into consideration of the contractual term of the instruments and employees expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior into the fair value (or calculated value) of the instruments. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.
·
Expected volatility of the entitys shares and the method used to estimate it. Pursuant to ASC 718, a thinly-traded or nonpublic entity that uses the calculated value method shall disclose the reasons why it is not practicable for it to estimate the expected volatility of its share price, the appropriate industry sector index that it has selected, the reasons for selecting that particular index, and how it has calculated historical volatility using that index. The Company uses the average historical volatility of the comparable companies over the expected contractual life of the share options or similar instruments as its expected volatility. If shares of a company are thinly traded the use of weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as the volatility calculation using daily observations for such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
·
Expected annual rate of quarterly dividends. An entity that uses a method that employs different dividend rates during the contractual term shall disclose the range of expected dividends used and the weighted-average expected dividends. The expected dividend yield is based on the Companys current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the option and similar instruments.
·
Risk-free rate(s). An entity that uses a method that employs different risk-free rates shall disclose the range of risk-free rates used. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected term of the option and similar instruments.
Equity Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of ASC 505-50.
Accordingly, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
The fair value of share options and similar instruments is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model.
Pursuant to ASC paragraph 505-50, if fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter into an agreement for goods or services (no specific performance is required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments), then, because of the elimination of any obligation on the part of the counterparty to earn the equity instruments, a measurement date has been reached. A grantor shall recognize the equity instruments when they are issued (in most cases, when the agreement is entered into). Whether the corresponding cost is an immediate expense or a prepaid asset (or whether the debit should be characterized as contra-equity under the requirements of paragraph 505-50) depends on the specific facts and circumstances. Under the guidance, a grantor may conclude that an asset (other than a note or a receivable) has been received in return for fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments that are issued at the date the grantor and grantee enter into an agreement for goods or services (and no specific performance is required by the grantee in order to retain those equity instruments). Such an asset shall not be displayed as contra-equity by the grantor of the equity instruments. The transferability (or lack thereof) of the equity instruments shall not affect the balance sheet display of the asset. This guidance is limited to transactions in which equity instruments are transferred to other than employees in exchange for goods or services.
12
Consistent with ASC 505-50, share-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The issuer shall measure the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of the following dates, referred to as the measurement date: (a) The date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached (a performance commitment); or (b) The date at which the counterpartys performance is complete. If the Companys common shares are traded in one of the national exchanges the grant-date share price of the Companys common stock will be used to measure the fair value of the common shares issued, however, if the Companys common shares are thinly traded the use of share prices established in the Companys most recent private placement memorandum (PPM), or weekly or monthly price observations would generally be more appropriate than the use of daily price observations as such shares could be artificially inflated due to a larger spread between the bid and asked quotes and lack of consistent trading in the market.
Deferred Tax Assets and Income Tax Provision
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to the unrecognized tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740 for the reporting periods ended March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014, respectively.
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and warrants.
For the reporting periods ended March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had 2,446,350 and 1,491,350 potentially dilutive warrants outstanding, respectively, which were not included in our income (loss) per share calculations as they were anti-dilutive.
Subsequent Events
The Company will evaluate and disclose if indicated, subsequent events through the date when the financial statements were issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
Accounting Standards Update
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the Companys Audited 2014 Financial Statements that are of material significance, or have potential material significance to the Company.
Note 3 Going Concern
The Company has elected to adopt early application of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entitys Ability to Continue as a going Concern.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, a net loss and net cash used in operating activities for the reporting periods then ended. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
13
The Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenue; however, the Companys cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to produce sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds.
The audit report of our independent registered public accounting firm, dated March 31, 2105, included an explanatory paragraph about the existence of substantial doubt concerning the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related 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.
Note 4 - Business Acquisitions
Acquisition of S&G Holdings, Inc.
On December 24, 2013, the Company acquired 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of S&G for $210,000. The Company also agreed to make a capital contribution of $100,000 to S&G at closing as well as an additional $365,000 capital contributions prior to September 2014. In addition, the Company paid $25,000 to a third party as commission for bringing in the acquisition.
Identification of the Accounting Acquirer
The Company used the existence of a controlling financial interest to identify the acquirerthe entity that obtains control of the acquiree in accordance with ASC 805 and identifies the acquisition date, which is the date on which it obtains control of the acquiree. The management of the Company specifically addressed (i) the ownership interest of each party after the acquisition; (ii) the members of the board of directors from both companies; and (iii) senior management from both companies and determined that Carolco Pictures Inc. was the accounting acquirer for the merger between Carolco Pictures Inc. and S&G Holdings, Inc.
Intangible Assets Identification, Estimated Fair Value and Useful Lives
The Company determined that there were no separate recognizable intangible assets that possessed economic value from S&G.
Business Enterprise Valuation
The Company determined that the business enterprise value of S&G approximates its net book value.
Allocation of Purchase Price
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 by allocating the purchase price over the assets acquired, including intangible assets and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the liabilities assumed and the purchase price over the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets and liabilities as follows:
Total assets acquired | $ | 42,457 |
Goodwill |
| 319,237 |
Total liabilities assumed |
| (126,694) |
Acquisition price | $ | 235,000 |

|
| January 10, 2014 |
|
Expected life (year) Simplified method |

|
Expected volatility (*) |
| 68.32 | % |
Expected annual rate of quarterly dividends |

| * | As a newly formed entity it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the expected volatility of its share price. The Company selected five (5) comparable public companies listed on NYSE MKT and NASDAQ Capital Market within nutritional supplements industry which the Company plans to engage in to calculate the expected volatility. The Company calculated those five (5) comparable companies historical volatility over the expected life and averaged them as its expected volatility. |
The estimated fair value of the stock warrant was $1,476,735 on the date of grant, which are initially recorded as additional paid-in capital and amortized ratably over the vesting period of 9 months Compensation - officers.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $1,900, as compared to $21,349 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. This sharp decrease in revenue was due to a very limited delivery of our production product and license fees earned. Revenue recognition is deferred until product is deliuvered and accepted by our customers. Our future revenue plan is dependent on our ability to effectively market The Doorman pilot and close new viable acquisitions of film rights.
19
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $32,499, as compared to $20,078 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Cost of goods sold consists primarily of direct production labor and production equipment rental. These costs increased approximately $12,000 between periods. This increase was attributable primarily to production labor as the Company increased staff in anticipation of future planned production projects.
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 totaled $725,904, compared to $160,726 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The bulk of the increase of $565,178 was attributable to an increase in compensation expense of $450,986, representing 80% of the overall increase between the periods. The increase in compensation expense recognized was primarily attributable to the agreement entered into with Mr. Kassar described above. As consideration under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Kassar received 500,000 of our common stock with a fair value of $40,000, 400,000 warrants exercisable for 10 years at an exercise price of $1.00 per share with a fair value at issuance of $8,631 and cash consideration of $400,000 for total consideration under the agreement of $448,631, representing the entire increase in compensation between the periods. Under the provisions of ASC 505-50 and the terms of the agreement with Mr. Kassar, the measurement date was determined to be the contract date. Give the absence of vesting or forfeiture provisions or significant disincentives for non-performance, the fair value of all consideration under the agreement was charged to compensation expense on the effective date of the agreement.
The Company has realized a net loss before non-controlling interest of $715,859 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to a net loss before non-controlling interest of $159,954 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in net loss is primarily due to the sharp increase in compensation expenses discussed above.

Pursuant to the terms of our employment agreement with Mr. Bafer, we are obligated to pay Mr. Bafer $150,000 per year. On October 1, 2011, Mr. Bafer agreed to waive future base salary under his employment agreement, until further notice, in an effort to reduce our operating expenses. Prior to that time, we did not have sufficient cash flows to make the required payments under the employment agreement and therefore, accrued all unpaid salary until such time we generate revenues from operations or raise additional capital through one or more financing transactions.
As part of the Companys acquisition of S&G Holdings, Inc. (doing business as High Five Entertainment) (High Five) in December 2013, the Company entered into an executive employment agreement with Mr. Martin Fischer, pursuant to which Mr. Fischer will serve as High Fives president for an initial term of five years with an initial base salary of $144,000. He will also be entitled to an annual bonus of up to $100,000 and a monthly car allowance of $500. In addition, the Company awarded Mr. Fischer an option to purchase 1,491,351 shares of common stock, which vested throughout 2014.
We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company is dependent upon our attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed. In this regard, we have raised additional capital through equity offerings and loan transactions, and, in the short term, will seek to raise additional capital in such manners to fund our operations. We do not currently have any third party financing available in the form of loans, advances, or commitments. Our officers and shareholders have not made any written or oral agreement to provide us additional financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise capital on terms and conditions that are deemed acceptable to us.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital. Expenditures or capital resources.

Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2015, a net loss and net cash used in operating activities for the reporting period then ended. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenue; however, the Companys cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to produce sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
We have identified the following policies below as critical to our business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of Company include the accounts of Carolco Pictures and its majority-owned subsidiaries, York Productions, LLC, York Productions II, LLC, and S&G Holdings, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Income Tax Provision. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
Capitalized Movie Pilot Costs - Film Property and Screenplay Rights. The Company capitalizes costs it incurs to buy film or transcripts that will later be marketed or be used in the production of films according to ASC 926, Entertainment Films. The Company will begin to amortize capitalized film cost when a film is released and it begins to recognize revenue from the film.
Non-Controlling Interest. The Company reports the non-controlling interest in its majority owned subsidiaries in the consolidated balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Companys stockholders equity. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holders proportionate share of the equity of the Companys majority-owned subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holders proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss) and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.
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 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.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
21
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2015. Based on such review and evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of March 31, 2015, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. This is primarily a result of the fact that the Company has only two employees, only one of whom has a background in accounting, and lacks segregation of duties.
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. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the benefits of controls 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. The design of any system of controls 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, regardless of how remote. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
