HOLLYWOOD MEDIA CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION:
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared by Hollywood Media Corp. (Hollywood Media) in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, management believes that the
disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The
financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include
only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly Hollywood Medias financial position
and results of operations. The results of operations for the nine and three months ended September
30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows which may result
for the remainder of 2006. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in Hollywood Medias Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Hollywood Medias condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Hollywood Media, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its 51% owned subsidiary, Tekno Books, which is
a partnership. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation and a minority interest has been established to reflect the outside ownership of
Tekno Books. Hollywood Medias 50% and 26.2% ownership interests in NetCo Partners and
MovieTickets.com, respectively, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
(2) RESTATEMENT:
Following the recommendation of management and the concurrence of the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors, Hollywood Media made a determination to restate the previously filed unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2005
(Q3-05) and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (Y3-05), originally included in Form 10-Q.
The restatement is being made primarily to correct errors in the way Hollywood Media had
previously accounted for Ticketing Business hotel and dinner voucher revenue, which were identified
during the audit of Hollywood Medias 2005 financial statements. The Company determined that hotel
package and dinner voucher revenues were being improperly reported on a gross basis instead of a
net basis. The restated transactions are described in detail below and have been grouped under
headings for convenience only.
-5-
Table of Contents
Revenue
| Ticketing net revenue has been reduced by $5,687,483 or 9.3% in the Y3-05 restated condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of a gross-up of hotel and dinner voucher revenue. | ||
| Ticketing net revenue has been reduced by $2,050,876 or 10.8% in the Q3-05 restated condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of a gross-up of hotel and dinner voucher revenue. |
Cost of Revenues Ticketing
| Cost of revenues Ticketing has been decreased by $5,687,483 or 10.7% in the Y3-05 restated condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of a gross-up of hotel and dinner voucher revenue. | ||
| Cost of revenues Ticketing has been decreased by $2,050,876 or 12.4%, in the Q3-05 restated condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of a gross-up of hotel and dinner voucher revenue. |
The restatement had no effect on the reported net loss.
The following unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 2005, reconcile the restated amounts to the previously reported
corresponding amounts. The previously reported amounts have been adjusted to reflect the
discontinuance of operations for Baseline Studio Systems as discussed further in Note 4.

(3) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:
Share-Based Incentive Plan
As of September 30, 2006, Hollywood Media has various stock option and incentive plans that
provide for the granting of stock options and other stock awards for shares of Hollywood Media
common stock for key personnel and directors. There were an aggregate of 1,469,829 shares remaining
available for issuance under Hollywood Medias stock incentive plans at September 30, 2006. The
options may be either qualified incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options. Stock
options granted to date generally have had an exercise price per share equal to the market value
per share of the common stock on the date prior to grant and generally expire five years or ten
years from the date of grant. Options awarded to Hollywood Medias employees generally become
exercisable in annual increments over a four-year period beginning one year from the grant date,
although some are immediately exercisable and some vest based on other terms as specified in the
option grants. Options awarded to directors become exercisable six months after date of grant.
Accounting for Share-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2006, Hollywood Media adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) 123R, Share-Based Payments, which replaced SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, and superseded Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 (APB 25), Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123R was adopted using the modified prospective transition method,
and accordingly, prior periods have not been restated. The modified prospective method requires the
recognition of compensation cost for (i) share-based awards granted prior to but not yet vested as
of January 1, 2006, based on the fair value calculated on the grant date, and (ii) share-based
awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, also based on the fair value calculated on the grant
date. Prior to January 1, 2006, Hollywood Media accounted for employee stock options under the
provisions of APB 25. Under Hollywood Medias plan, stock options are generally issued at the
current market price on the grant date and have no intrinsic value at the grant date. Accordingly,
Hollywood Media recorded no compensation expense under APB 25.
For the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, Hollywood Media recorded $747,950 and
$291,530 of stock-based compensation expense which caused loss from continuing operations to
increase by $747,950 and $291,530 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006,
respectively. The recorded compensation expense caused basic and diluted loss per share from
continuing operations to increase by $.02 and $.01 for the nine months and three months ended
September 30, 2006 respectively. Stock-based compensation from
discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005 is not considered material to the
accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
For periods prior to January 1, 2006, SFAS 148 required disclosure of the pro forma amount of
net income and per share amounts including the amount of fair value based compensation expense that
would have been recognized in those periods had compensation expense been recorded. The following
table includes the impact on net income and per share amounts for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 2005 had Hollywood Media recognized fair value compensation costs for the period:

The fair value of each option award is estimated as of the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model, which uses various assumptions in the calculation of the fair
value. There were 65,000 stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
There were no stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2006. In addition,
there were 160,000 stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and no
stock options granted for the three months ended September 30, 2005.
Stock option exercises during the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2006
resulted in the receipt of cash proceeds of $182,880 and $112,500, respectively. The intrinsic
value of the stock options exercised during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 was
$48,870 and $37,875, respectively. There were no tax benefits realized from stock option exercises
for the nine and three month periods ended September 30, 2006, as a result of the use of available
net operating losses and the related valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2006 and December
31, 2005 there were 400,000 and 550,000 shares of non-vested common stock, respectively. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2006, 150,000 shares of common stock vested.
In accordance with SFAS 123(R), unearned deferred compensation amounts of approximately $1.8
million previously classified as a contra-equity at December 31, 2005 were eliminated against
additional paid-in capital, as the stock is not deemed to be issued until vesting requirements are
satisfied.
(4) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On August 25, 2006, Hollywood Media sold to a third party all of the outstanding capital stock
of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Baseline Acquisitions Corp. (BAC), for a cash purchase price of
$35,000,000, subject to a potential post-closing adjustment described below. As per the purchase
agreement, $3,500,000 of the purchase price will be held in escrow for twelve months following the
closing to cover potential indemnification claims, if any, made by the third party. As of
September 30, 2006 and as of the date of this 10-Q report, Hollywood Media is not aware of any
claim against the escrow and estimates that the full amount of the escrow, net of costs of $700,000
for certain bonuses due the former Division Heads, will be released after the one-year period is
over as per the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The net amount of $2,800,000 is included in other
current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The purchase price is
subject to a potential post-closing adjustment based on the closing date working capital and net
debt of the businesses sold. The Company does not anticipate this adjustment to be material.

Table of Contents
BAC was the subsidiary of Hollywood Media which owned (i) Hollywood Medias Baseline
StudioSystems business unit (Baseline) and (ii) the Germany-based Screenline business of
Hollywood Media (Screenline). Baseline is a database and research service offering specialized
information and online applications to its subscribing users and licensees, which subscribers and
licensees include movie and TV studios and production companies, distributors, producers,
screenwriters, news organizations and websites. Baselines film and television database contains
motion picture and TV information, including data about film and television productions and
entertainment industry professionals. Screenline, a German company acquired by Hollywood Media in
June 2006, aggregates weekly box office data for more than 30 international territories and
countries, as well as film synopses, cast and crew lists, release dates and budget information in
English, German and Spanish. Baseline and Screenline constituted a portion of Hollywood Medias
Data Business Division. This sale to The New York Times did not include the other components of
Hollywood Medias Data Business referred to as the Source business which consists of CinemaSource,
EventSource and ExhibitorAds.
Pursuant to SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal or Long-Lived
Assets, our condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for all periods
presented to reflect the operations, assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations. The

(5) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Consolidation
Hollywood Medias condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Hollywood Media, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its 51% owned subsidiary, Tekno Books which is
a partnership. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation and a minority interest has been established to reflect the outside ownership of
Tekno Books. Hollywood Medias 50% and 26.2% ownership interests in NetCo Partners and
MovieTickets.com, respectively, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
Income (Loss) Per Common Share
SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share, requires companies to present basic and diluted earnings per
share (EPS). Income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding.
Restricted shares are not included in the basic calculation until vesting occurs. There were
400,000 and 600,000 unvested restricted shares as of September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Common shares issuable upon conversion of convertible securities and upon exercise of outstanding
options and warrants of 5,950,236 and 4,223,076 at September 30,
2006 and 2005, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of
diluted loss per share for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, because their impact
was anti-dilutive to the loss from continuing operations.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires that the Company make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and
related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are based on the
information that is currently available and on various other assumptions that the Company believes
to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. Significant estimates and assumptions embodied in the
accompanying financial statements, which are evaluated on an ongoing basis, include: the deferred
tax asset valuation allowance, useful lives of fixed assets, the adequacy of reserves for accounts
receivable and self-insurance accruals for compensation, contingencies and litigation as well as
Hollywood Medias ability to realize the carrying value of goodwill, intangible assets, investments
in less than 50% owned companies and other long-lived assets.

Table of Contents
Inventories Held for Sale and Deferred Ticket Costs
Inventories held for sale consist primarily of Broadway tickets or other live theater tickets
available for sale. Deferred ticket costs consists of tickets sold (subject to the performance
occurring) to groups, individuals, and travel agencies for future performances which have been
delivered to the customer or held by the Company as will call. Both are carried at cost using
the specific identification method. Ticket inventory does not include movie tickets.
The portion of receivables and inventory balances that relate to the sales of tickets to
groups, individuals and travel agencies for Broadway and other live theatre shows are, with
isolated exceptions, for shows or performances that take place at venues in New York, New York, a
major metropolitan area reported as subject to the threat of terrorist acts from time to time by
relevant U.S. Government agencies. Hollywood Media recognizes that a significant civil disturbance
occurring in New York City could lead to closures of available performance venues for which it may
not receive reimbursement of ticket costs and/or payment on outstanding receivables, and could
adversely impact the normal conduct of its operations within New York City for an indefinite period
of time.
Receivables
Receivables consist of amounts due from: customers who have advertised on Hollywood Medias
websites and other media; MovieTickets.com for commissions due for ad sales on the MovieTickets.com
website; and customers who have licensed content from Hollywood Medias data syndication
businesses, have purchased live theater tickets and amounts due from publishers relating to signed
contracts, to the extent that the earnings process is complete and amounts are realizable.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Hollywood Media maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting
from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The allowance includes principally
all receivables which are more than 180 days overdue. The Companys accounting for doubtful
accounts contains uncertainty because management must use judgment to assess the collectibility of
these accounts. When preparing these estimates, management considers a number of factors, including
the aging of a customers account, past transactions with customers, creditworthiness of specific
customers, historical trends and other information. The allowance for doubtful accounts was
$1,230,897 and $1,756,254 at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Although the
Company believes its allowance is sufficient, if the financial condition of the Companys customers
were to unexpectedly deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments,
additional allowances may be required that could materially impact the Companys consolidated
financial statements. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited
due to the large number of customers comprising the Companys customer base and their dispersion
across many different geographical regions.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost and are divided into six categories. The categories
and estimated service lives are as follows:
-13-
Table of Contents
Furniture and fixtures
|
5 years | |
Equipment and software
|
3 years | |
Website development
|
3 years | |
Equipment under capital leases
|
Term of lease | |
Leasehold improvements
|
Term of lease | |
Internally developed software
|
3 years upon implementation |
Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to
operations over their estimated service lives, which range from three to five years, on a
straight-line basis. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the terms of the
respective leases or the service lives of the improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged
to expense when incurred.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Prior to December 31, 2001, goodwill had been amortized on a straight-line basis over its
estimated useful life, which ranged from 10 to 40 years. In July 2001, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards 141, Business
Combinations (SFAS 141) and 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS
142). Effective January 1, 2002, Hollywood Media adopted SFAS 142. Under SFAS 142, goodwill
and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment
annually, or more frequently if indicators arise. Separable intangible assets that are not deemed
to have indefinite lives continue to be amortized over their useful lives. Hollywood Media has
selected October 1 as the date upon which it conducts its annual impairment review. The Companys
annual impairment analysis did not result in an impairment charge for each of the years ending
December 31, 2005 and 2004. As of September 30, 2006 and as of the date of this 10-Q report, we
are not aware of any items or events that would cause us to adjust the recorded value of Hollywood
Medias goodwill for impairment.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue recognition policies for ticketing, syndication, advertising and book packaging and
licensing, are set forth below.
Ticketing. Ticket revenue is derived from the sale of live theater tickets for
Broadway, off-Broadway and London shows to individuals, groups, travel agencies, tour groups and
educational organizations. Proceeds from these sales received in advance of the corresponding
performance activity are recorded as deferred revenue at the time of receipt, and are recognized as
revenue in the period the performance of the show occurs.
Gift certificate revenue is derived from the sale of gift certificates for Broadway,
off-Broadway, London shows and Dinner and Show sales to individuals, groups, travel agencies, tour
groups and corporate programs. Proceeds from these sales are included in Deferred Revenue in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at the time of receipt, and are recognized as
revenue in the period the performance of the show occurs.
Hotel package revenue is derived from the sale of exclusive allocation rooms provided by New
York City hotels to individuals and groups. Proceeds from these sales are included in Customer
Deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, at the time of receipt, and are
recognized as revenue on a net basis on the day of departure from the hotel.
-14-
Table of Contents
Dinner voucher revenue is derived from the sale of dinner vouchers for meals at upscale
restaurants in New York City to individuals and groups. Proceeds from these sales are included in
Customer Deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, at the time of
receipt, and are recognized as revenue on a net basis on the date the voucher is presented, or upon
expiration of the voucher.
In July 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF
Issue 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. This consensus
provides guidance concerning under what circumstances a company should report revenue based on (a)
the gross amount billed to a customer because it has earned revenue from the sale of goods or
services or (b) the net amount retained (that is, the amount billed to the customer less the amount
paid to a supplier) because it has earned a commission or fee. Hollywood Medias existing
accounting policies conform to the EITF consensus. Ticket revenue and cost of revenue-ticketing are
recorded on a gross basis in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Hotel revenues packages and vouchers sold for New York restaurants are reported on a net basis in
the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Syndication and Royalties. Syndication revenue is derived from the sale of the
entertainment related content to other businesses. Revenue is recognized ratably throughout the
life of the contract and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Royalty
income is recognized pursuant to contract terms when it is reasonably assured, which is generally
upon collection.
Advertising. Advertising revenue is derived from: the sale of advertising on
Hollywood Medias websites; commissions from ad sales on MovieTickets.coms website; and
CinemasOnline which sells advertising on cinema and live theater websites and plasma screens in the
U.K. Advertising revenue is recognized over the period that the advertisement is displayed,
provided that no significant obligations of Hollywood Media remain and collection is reasonably
assured. Hollywood Medias obligations typically are based on or include guarantees of a minimum
number of impressions or times that an advertisement is viewed by users of Hollywood Medias
websites. In these instances, depending on the form of the arrangement, revenue is recognized
either based on the number of impressions delivered to the customer or number of times an
advertisement is viewed by a user, or upon delivery of the required minimum numbers of impressions
or times that an advertisement is viewed by a user.
Book Packaging and Licenses. Licensing revenues in the form of non-refundable
advances and other guaranteed royalty payments are recognized when the earnings process has been
completed, which is generally upon the delivery of a completed manuscript and acceptance by the
publisher. Non-guaranteed royalties based on sales of licensed products and on sales of books
published directly by Hollywood Media are recognized as revenues when earned based on royalty
statements or other notification of such amounts from the publishers.
Revenue relating to Hollywood Medias book licensing business is recognized when the earnings
process is complete, typically when a publisher accepts a book for publishing. Advances received
from publishers are recorded as deferred revenues until the book is accepted by the publisher. In
the book licensing division, expenditures for co-editors and permission payments are also deferred
and recorded as prepaid expenses until the book is accepted by the publisher, at which time such
costs are expensed.

Table of Contents
Segment Information
SFAS 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information establishes
standards for reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Disclosure regarding Hollywood Medias
business segments is contained in Note 11.
Self-Insurance Accruals
Hollywood Media maintains an accrual for self-insured retentions for its health benefits
programs and limits its exposure by maintaining stop-loss and aggregate liability coverage. The
estimate of the Companys self-insurance liability contains uncertainty since management must use
judgment to estimate the ultimate cost that will be incurred to settle reported claims and
unreported claims for incidents incurred but not reported as of the balance sheet date. When
estimating the Companys self-insurance liability, management considers a number of factors, which
include historical claim experience. The self-insurance program was initiated in June 2004, and
since such initiation, Management has recorded the maximum amount of potential liability under the
stop-loss insurance coverage due to the lack of historical claims experience data available for the
current health care plan.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 108, Considering the Effects
of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements
(SAB 108). SAB 108 provides guidance on the consideration of effects of prior year misstatements
in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. The SEC
staff believes registrants must quantify errors using both a balance sheet and income statement
approach and evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all
relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. SAB 108 is effective for
the first annual period ending after November 15, 2006 with early application encouraged. The
Company does not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact this statement will have on its financial
statements.
In
June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial
statements in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. This
Interpretation is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2007. Management is currently
evaluating the impact FIN 48 will have on the financial statements.
In
February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments (SFAS 155)
which amends SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
-16-
Table of Contents
Activities (SFAS 133) and SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (SFAS 140). SFAS 155 allows financial instruments that
have embedded derivatives to be accounted for as a whole (eliminating the need to bifurcate the
derivative from its host) if the holder elects to account for the whole instrument on a fair value
basis. SFAS 155 also clarifies and amends certain other provisions of SFAS 133 and SFAS 140. This
statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued in fiscal years beginning
after September 15, 2006. Management is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 155 will have on the
financial statements.
(6) ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS:
CinemasOnline Acquisition
On November 23, 2005, Hollywood Media consummated the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding
common stock of the U.K. based CinemasOnline, a group of advertising sales and data services
companies focused primarily on selling advertising on cinema and live theatre websites in the U.K.
and Ireland. The acquisition is intended to establish CinemasOnline as a platform to expand
Hollywood Medias Ad Sales and Data Businesses into Europe. CinemasOnline became a subsidiary
of CinemaSource UK Limited, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Hollywood Media that was created
to acquire the stock of CinemasOnline for this transaction. The aggregate purchase consideration
was $3,908,175, including $366,408 of acquisition costs, of which $107,314 was held in an escrow
account for potential claims that may be made against the seller. On July 27, 2006, the entire
balance of the escrow account was released to the seller. A reconciliation of the purchase price is
provided below.

(7) DEBT:
Senior Unsecured Notes
On November 23, 2005, Hollywood Media issued and sold $7,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
its Senior Unsecured Notes (the Senior Notes) for aggregate gross cash proceeds of $7,000,000.
The notes carry an 8% interest rate and an initial 12 month term, on which interest is payable in
quarterly installments commencing December 31, 2005. The principal is payable in cash or, at
Hollywood Medias option, in shares of Hollywood Medias common stock valued on a per share basis
at a 5% discount from the 20-day volume-weighted average market price per share of the common stock
(VWAP) as of the payment date, subject to certain conditions to such option including but not
limited to the requirement that the shares be registered for resale. Hollywood Medias proceeds
related to the issuance, net of issuance costs, was $6,595,690. The holders of the Senior Notes
also received warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of Hollywood Medias common stock at an exercise
price of $4.29 per share. In March of 2006, Hollywood Media exercised its option under the terms of
the Senior Notes, to extend the maturity date of the Senior Notes to May 23, 2007 in exchange for
the delivery of additional five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of
Hollywood Medias common stock with an exercise price per share at $4.29. The Senior Notes are not
convertible at the option of the holders.
Upon issuance, the Company recognized the value attributable to the 700,000 issued warrants in
the amount of $1,865,037 as a discount against the Senior Notes. The Company valued the warrants
using the Black-Scholes pricing model assuming a risk-free rate of 4.45%, an expected volatility of
69.4% and a five year life; the fair value of the warrants was determined to be $2.66 per share.
Additional discount of $286,000 was recorded in conjunction with the 100,000 extension warrants
issued in March of 2006. The Company valued the additional warrants using the Black-Scholes
pricing model assuming a risk-free rate of 4.73%, an expected volatility of 64.2% and an
approximate five year life; the fair value of the warrants was determined to be $2.86 per share.
The debt discount attributed to the value of the warrants issued is amortized over the life of the
Senior Notes as interest expense using the effective yield method. The Company amortized the
Senior Notes debt discount attributed to the value of the warrants of $930,229, and $304,888,
respectively for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 and no discount amortization
was recorded for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2005. As of September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, $953,516 and $1,597,745, respectively, of unamortized discount on the Senior
Notes was reducing the face amount of Senior Notes, and is being amortized to interest expense over
the remaining term of the outstanding debt.
The fair value of the warrants has been recorded as a derivative liability. The liability was
accounted for as a derivative under the applicable standards due to the registration rights and
potential net cash settlement of amounts due to warrant holders. The change in fair value during
the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 was $584,000 and $240,000 of gain, respectively
relating to the detachable warrants, which is classified as a derivative liability and marked to
market through earnings in Other, net in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of
operations.

Table of Contents
In addition, $404,310 of issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the debt as a
deferred debt issuance cost on the straight-line basis which approximates the interest method.
During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, $327,096 and $109,032, respectively, of
debt issuance costs have been amortized as interest expense. As of September 30, 2006 and December
31, 2005, $36,344 and $363,440, respectively, was included in Other assets in the Companys
condensed consolidated balance sheets.

interest was recorded on the Companys consolidated balance sheets.
May 2002 Convertible Debentures
On May 22, 2002, Hollywood Media issued an aggregate of $5.7 million in principal amount of 6%
Senior Convertible Debentures due May 22, 2005 (the Debentures) to a group of investors, upon
payment of an aggregate $5.7 million cash investment from such investors. The Debentures bore
interest at 6% per annum, payable quarterly in cash or common stock. Mitchell Rubenstein, the
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Laurie S. Silvers, the Vice Chairman and
President of Hollywood Media, participated in the financing with a $500,000 cash investment upon
the same terms as the other investors. The Debentures were convertible at the option of the
investors at any time through May 22, 2005 into shares of Hollywood Media common stock, par value
$0.01 per share. Following the conversion in August and September of 2004 of $4.7 million principal
amount of Debentures described below, the remaining $1.0 million Debenture was amended so that it
was convertible through and matured on May 22, 2006. The original conversion price of $3.46 per
share was adjusted and amended as described below. The investors also received fully vested
detachable warrants (the Warrants) to acquire at any time through May 22, 2007, an aggregate of
576,590 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.78 per share. On May 22, 2003, an
investor holding at least seventy-five percent of such investors shares of common stock issued or
issuable to such investor under the Debentures, had the exercise price of the warrants held by such
investor decreased to $3.46 per share, which equals the pre-adjustment conversion price of the
Debentures. The Debentures and Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions as more fully
described in the agreements. As a result of the 2004 private placement, the original conversion
price of the Debentures of $3.46 per share was reduced to $3.30 per share, and the exercise price
of the warrants was reduced to $3.34 per share, after giving effect to a weighted average
anti-dilution provision per the agreements. As a result of the reduction of the conversion price,
additional beneficial conversion of $294,360 was recorded in 2004.
During August and September of 2004, $4.7 million principal amount of the Debentures was
converted into shares of Hollywood Medias common stock at a conversion price of $3.05 per share,
including the $500,000 Debenture held by Mr. Rubenstein and Ms. Silvers. Prior to such
conversions, the prevailing conversion price of the converted Debentures was reduced from $3.30 per
share to $3.05 per share pursuant to Hollywood Medias negotiations and agreements with the
converting investors for the purpose of facilitating such conversions. Following such conversions,
the remaining $1.0 million Debenture outstanding was amended to extend the maturity date to May 22,
2006 and to remove restrictive covenants, and the conversion price of this Debenture was reduced
from $3.30 per share to $3.20 per share. As a result of these reductions in conversion prices,
additional beneficial conversion option of $412,710 was recorded. On May 22, 2006, the remaining
$1.0 million principal amount of the Debentures was converted into shares of Hollywood Medias
common stock at a conversion price of $3.20 per share. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2006,
there were no remaining Debentures outstanding.

Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2005, $59,073 of unamortized discount on the Debentures was reducing the
face amount of Debentures.
A total of $389,095 in deferred finance costs were incurred for the Debentures, including
$161,695 in fees paid to a placement agent (including $130,000 in cash and a warrant valued at
$31,695, with substantially the same terms as the Warrants issued to the Debenture holders).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, $4,535 and $8,163, respectively, was
recorded as interest expense from the amortization of the debt issuance costs. During the three
months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, $0 and $2,721, respectively, was recorded as interest
expense from the amortization of the debt issuance costs.
Interest expense of $82,415 and $106,331 was recorded for the nine months ended September 30,
2006 and 2005, respectively, consisting of stated interest and discount amortization on the
Debenture. Interest expense of $0 and $35,443 was recorded for the three months ended September
30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, consisting of stated interest and discount amortization on the
Debenture.
The Warrants granted to these investors in May 2002 were recorded at a relative fair value of
$1,608,422 using the Black Scholes option valuation model. The assumptions used to calculate the
value of the warrants using Black Scholes were as follows: volatility of 83.7%, 5 year expected
life, exercise price of $3.78 per share, a stock price of $3.27 per share and a risk free interest
rate of 4%. The original beneficial conversion feature of the Debentures was valued at $1,295,416.
The recorded values of the Warrants and the beneficial conversion feature were being amortized to
interest expense over 3 years, using the effective interest method or sooner if converted prior to
maturity. The value of the Warrants and the beneficial conversion feature of the Debentures were
recorded as a discount to the convertible Debenture and included in additional paid-in capital.

In November 2002 there was an arbitration action commenced by a third party against Hollywood
Media regarding a contract dispute involving claims against Tribune Company and the hollywood.com,
Inc. subsidiary of Hollywood Media, which dispute was settled in October 2003. Under the
settlement, Hollywood Media made a $200,000 payment in October 2003, and agreed to purchase certain
advertising to advertise Hollywood Medias exhibition-related businesses in a trade publication at
a cost of $14,167 per month, at prevailing rates, over a six-month period which commenced in
December 2003. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, all payments were made and there
was $18,100 and $34,075, respectively, of prepaid advertising remaining under this agreement.
In a separate matter, a lawsuit pertaining to an advertising insertion order was filed against
Hollywood Media in May 2003, seeking damages of $161,000 plus interest and costs. Hollywood Media
and the plaintiff in this matter entered into an agreement in January 2005 to settle this
litigation whereby Hollywood Media agreed to purchase $119,000 in advertising on various web
properties over the period of January 18, 2005 through September 17, 2005, payable over 8 months.
As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 there was no prepaid advertising available under

Results of Discontinued Operations
On August 25, 2006, Hollywood Media sold to The New York Times Company (The New York Times)
all of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Baseline Acquisitions Corp.
(BAC), for a cash purchase price of $35,000,000, subject to a potential post-closing adjustment
described below. Of the purchase price, $3.5 million is being held in escrow for twelve months
following the closing to cover potential indemnification claims by The New York Times under the
terms of the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price is subject to a potential post-closing
adjustment based on the closing date working capital and net debt of the businesses sold.
BAC was the subsidiary of Hollywood Media which owned (i) Hollywood Medias Baseline
StudioSystems business unit (Baseline) and (ii) the Germany-based Screenline business of
Hollywood Media (Screenline). Baseline is a database and research service offering specialized
information and online applications to its subscribing users and licensees, which subscribers and

entertainment industry professionals. Screenline, a German company acquired by Hollywood Media in
June 2006, aggregates weekly box office data for more than 30 international territories and
countries, as well as film synopses, cast and crew lists, release dates and budget information in
English, German and Spanish. Baseline and Screenline constituted a portion of Hollywood Medias
Data Business Division. This sale to The New York Times did not include the other components of
Hollywood Medias Data Business called the Source business which consists of CinemaSource,
EventSource and ExhibitorAds. See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
for further information.
Pursuant to SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the

CONTINUING OPERATIONS
NET REVENUES
Total net revenues were $80,149,758 for Y3-06 as compared to $63,211,345 for Y3-05, an
increase of $16,938,413 or 27%, and $26,039,842 for Q3-06 as compared to $19,552,530 for Q3-05, an
increase of $6,487,312 or 33%. The increase in revenue from Y3-05 to Y3-06 was primarily due to a
179% revenue increase in Ad Sales, a 21% revenue increase in Broadway Ticketing, and a 18%
revenue increase in Data Business, which was partially offset by a 41% revenue decrease in
Intellectual Properties. The increase in revenue from Q3-05 to Q3-06 was primarily due to a 194%
revenue increase in Ad Sales, a 27% increase in Broadway Ticketing, and a 16% revenue increase
in Data Business, which was partially offset by a 39% revenue decrease in Intellectual Properties.
The increase in Ad Sales is primarily due to the November 2005 acquisition of CinemasOnline
which contributed $3,602,511 and $1,218,409 in Y3-06 and Q3-06, respectively, and an overall
increase in ad sales on Hollywood.com and Broadway.com. In Y3-06 net revenues were derived 84% from
Broadway Ticketing, 9% from Ad Sales, 6% from Data Business, and 1% from Intellectual
Properties. In Q3-06 net revenues were derived 83% from Broadway Ticketing, 10% from Ad Sales,
6% from Data Business, and 1% from Intellectual Properties. In Y3-05 net revenues were derived 88%
from Broadway Ticketing, 6% from Data Business, 4% from Ad Sales, and 2% from Intellectual
Properties. In Q3-05 net revenues were derived 87% from Broadway Ticketing, 7% from Data Business,
4% from Ad Sales, and 2% from Intellectual Properties.
Broadway Ticketing net revenues were $66,980,245 and $55,303,893 for Y3-06 and Y3-05,
respectively, an increase of $11,676,352 or 21%, and $21,543,990 and $16,945,816 for Q3-06 and
Q3-05, respectively, an increase of $4,598,174 or 27%. The increase in Broadway Ticketing net
revenues in Y3-06 and Q3-06 over Y3-05 and Q3-05, respectively, is attributable to Broadway.com and
1-800-BROADWAY revenues which increased to $47,021,137 and $16,729,402 in Y3-06 and Q3-06,
respectively, compared to $44,652,224 and $15,648,053 in Y3-05 and Q3-05, respectively,
representing increases of $2,368,913 or 5% in Y3-06 and $1,081,349 or 7% in Q3-06. This increase
in revenue is partially attributable to a combination of price and order increases and to changes
in our marketing and advertising strategies as well as growth in tourism in New York City.
Ticketing revenue is generated from the sales of live theater tickets for Broadway, off-Broadway
and Londons West End both online via Broadway.com and Theatre.com and offline via 1-800-BROADWAY.
Ticketing revenue is recognized on the date of performance of the show. Ticketing revenue received
for performances yet to take place is recorded as deferred revenue in our condensed consolidated
balance sheet.

Data Business net revenues, which includes our Source business (CinemaSource, EventSource,
ExhibitorAds), were $4,761,787 for Y3-06 as compared to $4,021,994 for Y3-05, an increase of
$739,793 or 18%, and $1,648,189 for Q3-06 as compared to $1,416,034 for Q3-05, an increase of
$232,155 or 16%. Those increases in Data Business revenue in Y3-06 and Q3-06 over Y3-05 and Q3-05,
respectively, are attributable to additional licensing agreements entered into in our Data Business
and an aggregate increase in license fees payable to us from our existing customers. Revenue for
CinemaSource and EventSource is generated by the licensing of movie and event showtimes and other
information to media outlets, internet companies, wireless companies and telephone companies
including newspapers such as The New York Times, and Internet companies including AOLs Moviefone
and City Guide, MSN, and Yahoo!. Revenue for ExhibitorAds is generated by creating movie theater
exhibitor paid directory ads for insertion in newspapers and the handling of email newsletters for
exhibitors.
Ad
Sales net revenue was $7,607,721 for Y3-06 as compared to $2,724,307 for Y3-05, an
increase of $4,883,414 or 179%, and $2,570,826 and $873,510 for Q3-06 and Q3-05 respectively, an
increase of $1,697,316 or 194%. The increase in ad sales in Y3-06 and Q3-06 is primarily
attributable to the acquisition of CinemasOnline in November 2005 and continued growth of ad sales
on Hollywood.com and Broadway.com as well as increased commission revenue due to higher ad sales on
MovieTickets.com. CinemasOnline revenue in Y3-06 and Q3-06 was $3,602,511 and $1,218,409,
respectively. Ad Sales revenue is generated from the sale of sponsorships and advertisements on
Hollywood.com and Broadway.com, advertisements generated by CinemasOnline, and commissions on ad
sales which Hollywood.com sells for placement on MovieTickets.com.
Net revenues from our Intellectual Properties division were $683,405 for Y3-06 as compared to
$1,161,151 for Y3-05, a decrease of $477,746 or 41%, and $194,237 for Q3-06 as compared to $317,170
for Q3-05, a decrease of $122,933 or 39%. The decrease in revenues was attributable to the timing
of the delivery of manuscripts as fewer manuscripts were delivered in Y3-06 and Q3-06 as compared
to Y3-05 and Q3-05 and to sluggishness in the publishing industry. The Intellectual Properties
division generates revenues from several different activities including book development and
licensing and intellectual property licensing. Revenues vary quarter-to-quarter dependent on the
timing of the delivery of the manuscripts to the publishers. Revenues are recognized when the
earnings process is complete and ultimate collection of such revenues is no longer subject to
contingencies. The Intellectual Properties division revenues do not include our 50% interest in
NetCo Partners, which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting and under which
Hollywood Medias share of the income (loss) is included in equity in earnings (losses) of
investees on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in this Form 10-Q report.
EQUITY IN EARNINGS (LOSSES) OF INVESTEES

Table of Contents
(a) NetCo Partners
NetCo Partners owns Tom Clancys NetForce and is primarily engaged in the development and
licensing of Tom Clancys NetForce. NetCo Partners recognizes revenues when the earnings process
has been completed based on the terms of the various agreements, generally upon the delivery of the
manuscript to the publisher and at the point where ultimate collection is substantially assured.
When advances are received prior to completion of the earnings process, NetCo Partners defers
recognition of revenue until the earnings process has been completed. Hollywood Media owns 50% of
NetCo Partners and accounts for its investment under the equity method of accounting. Hollywood
Medias 50% share of earnings was a net loss of $1,550 for Y3-06 compared to earnings of $531,907
for Y3-05, a decrease of $533,457. Hollywood Medias 50% share of earnings was a net gain of $218
recorded for Q3-06 as compared to earnings of $2,487 for Q3-05, for a decrease of $2,269 or 91%.
Revenues vary quarter-to-quarter dependent on timing of deliveries of manuscripts to the publisher.
(b) MovieTickets.com
Hollywood Media owned 26.2% of the total equity in the MovieTickets.com, Inc. joint venture at
September 30, 2006. Hollywood Media records its investment in MovieTickets.com, Inc. under the
equity method of accounting, recognizing its percentage of ownership of MovieTickets.com income or
loss as equity in earnings of investees. Hollywood Media shared in 26.2% of the losses or income
generated by the joint venture during Q3-06. We have not recorded any of our share of the joint
ventures results of operations in Q3-06 and Q3-05 or in Y3-06 and Y3-05 related to our investment
in MovieTickets.com because the investment has been reduced to zero. Hollywood Media is currently
not providing for additional losses, if any, generated by MovieTickets.com as Hollywood Media has
not guaranteed to fund future losses, if any, generated by MovieTickets.com. The MovieTickets.com
web site generates revenues from service fees charged to users for the purchase of movie tickets
online and the sale of advertising.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Cost of revenue ticketing. Cost of revenue ticketing was $56,026,353 for Y3-06 compared
to $47,506,187 for Y3-05 for an increase of $8,520,166 or 18%. Cost of revenue-ticketing for Q3-06
was $18,101,600 compared to $14,487,717 for Q3-05 for an increase of $3,613,883 or 25%. Cost of
revenue consists primarily of the cost of tickets and credit card fees for the Broadway Ticketing
segment, partially offset by rebates received from certain producers based on exceeding certain
ticketing sales goals. As a percentage of ticketing revenue, cost of revenue ticketing was 84%
and 86% for Y3-06 and Y3-05, respectively, and 84% and 85% for Q3-06 and Q3-05, respectively. The
decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of ticketing revenue in Y3-06 and Q3-06 compared to
Y3-05 and Q3-05 was due in part to a greater proportion of higher margin consumer ticket sales and
an increase in sellables (e.g., insurance, restaurant vouchers).
Editorial, production, development and technology. Editorial, production, development and
technology costs primarily consists of payroll and related expenses for the editorial and
production staff responsible for creating content on Hollywood Medias websites for our
Ad Sales, Data Business, and Cable TV segments. These expenses include Internet access and
computer related expenses for the support and delivery of our information services, and fees and
royalties paid to authors and co-editors for the intellectual properties segment. Editorial,
production, development and technology costs for Y3-06 were $5,178,213 compared to $3,371,425 for
Y3-05, an increase of $1,806,788 or 54%. Q3-06 costs were $1,818,154
-40-
Table of Contents
compared to $1,210,263 for Q3-05, an increase of $607,891 or 50%. As a percentage of revenues from
our Ad Sales, Data Business, Cable TV and Intellectual Properties segments, these costs were 39%
for Y3-06 and 43% for Y3-05, and 40% and 46% for Q3-06 and Q3-05, respectively, representing
decreases as a percentage of revenues due to the lower incremental costs associated with the
increased revenue in the Data Business segment along with the increase in gross margin for the
Ad Sales segment offset by increasing costs to the Cable TV segment.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses
consist of occupancy costs, production costs, professional and consulting service fees,
telecommunications costs, provision for doubtful accounts receivable, general insurance costs,
selling and marketing costs (such as advertising, marketing, promotional, business development,
public relations, and commissions due to advertising agencies, advertising representative firms
and other parties). SG&A expenses for Y3-06 were $11,051,113 compared to $8,282,768 for Y3-05 for
an increase of $2,768,345, or 33%. The SG&A expenses for Q3-06 were $3,722,933 compared to
$2,480,365 for Q3-05, an increase of $1,242,568, or 50%. As a percentage of net revenues, SG&A
expenses were 14% and 13% for Y3-06 and Y3-05, respectively, and were 14% and 13% for Q3-06 and
Q3-05, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses in Y3-06 as compared to Y3-05 was due primarily
to an increase of $1,100,000 in advertising expense in the Broadway Ticketing segment, an increase
of $1,000,000 in consulting expense, an increase in bad debt expense of $211,000, excluding
CinemasOnline, an increase of $121,000 in occupancy expense and an increase in travel expense of
$128,000, offset by decreases in Sarbanes Oxley consulting fees of $624,000 and legal fees of
$183,000. In addition, the acquisition of CinemasOnline in November 2005 increased SG&A expense in
Y3-06 by $698,000 as compared to Y3-05. The increase in SG&A expenses in Q3-06 as compared to
Q3-05 was due primarily to an increase of $523,000 in advertising expense in the Broadway Ticketing
and Ad Sales segments, an increase of $329,000 in expenses primarily related to outsourcing of
information technology and accounting process improvements, an increase in bad debt expense of
$83,000, excluding CinemasOnline, an increase of $59,000 in occupancy expense and an increase in
travel expense of $46,000 offset by a decrease in Sarbanes-Oxley consulting fees of $109,000. In
addition, the acquisition of CinemasOnline in November 2005 increased SG&A expense in Q3-06 by
$216,000 as compared to Q3-05.
We are continuing to develop and implement efficiency improvements and cost-savings measures
anticipated to reduce or better control various elements of SG&A expenses, including certain
overhead reductions, improved accounting systems, and the installation of a new, more robust
Broadway ticketing software system to streamline our ticketing functionality and improve
efficiencies. These various cost-saving measures are being incrementally implemented during 2006
and 2007 and we expect to realize additional savings in applicable expenses over time as the
initiatives increasingly take hold. As part of these cost-saving measures, we have outsourced part
of our information technology services to India and are implementing additional offshore
outsourcing initiatives intended to achieve significant reductions in certain SG&A expenses
relating to our Data Business segment and information technology services. These measures should
also help us control portions of our payroll and benefits costs (discussed below).
Payroll and Benefits.
Payroll and benefits expenses include payroll and benefits and other types of compensation
costs as well as human resources and administrative functions.
Payroll and benefits expenses for Y3-06 were $11,612,008 compared to $11,173,726 for Y3-05 for
an increase of $438,282 or 4%. Payroll and benefits expenses for Q3-06 were
-41-
Table of Contents
$3,755,431 compared to $3,727,895 for Q2-05 for an increase of $27,536 or 1%. As a percentage
of net revenues, payroll and benefits expenses were approximately 14% and 18% for Y3-06 and Y3-05,
respectively, and 14% and 19% for Q3-06 and Q3-05, respectively.
The increase in costs from Y3-06 as compared to Y3-05 relating to payroll and benefits was due
primarily to the payroll and benefits of $617,001 associated with CinemasOnline, an acquisition
made in the fourth quarter of 2005, offset by decreases associated with outsourcing of information
technology to India.
The increase in costs from Q3-06 as compared to Q3-05 relating to payroll and benefits was due
primarily to the payroll and benefits of $206,865 associated with CinemasOnline, an acquisition
made in the fourth quarter of 2005, offset by decreases in information systems personnel due to
outsourcing.
See the discussion of cost-savings measures described above under Selling, general and
administrative which includes descriptions of initiatives that we expect to help control some of
the costs included in Payroll and Benefits, including outsourcing and other system efficiencies.
Depreciation and Amortization.
Depreciation and amortization expense consists of depreciation of property and equipment,
furniture and fixtures, web site development, equipment under capital leases and amortization of
leasehold improvements, goodwill and intangibles. Depreciation and amortization expense was
$1,504,899 for Y3-06 as compared to $1,151,395 for Y3-05 for an increase of $353,504 or 31%. Q3-06
depreciation and amortization expense was $493,411 compared to $351,548 for Q3-05, a decrease of
$141,863 or 40%. The net increase in depreciation and amortization expenses from Y3-06 as compared
to Y3-05 was primarily attributable to amortization of additional intangibles acquired with
CinemasOnline, offset in part by certain reductions due to certain intangibles becoming fully
amortized prior to June 30, 2006.
Interest, net.
Interest, net was $1,609,114 for Y3-06, as compared to $132,310 for Y3-05, and $425,152 for
Q3-06 as compared to $42,277 for Q3-05. The increase in interest expense of $1,476,804, or 1,116%,
in Y3-06 over Y3-05 and $382,875, or 906%, for Q3-06 over Q3-05 was primarily attributable to the
issuance of $7,000,000 in senior unsecured notes on November 23, 2005, resulting in higher interest
expense in 2006.
Other, net.
Other, net was a gain of $528,374 for Y3-06 as compared to a gain of $29,260 for Y3-05 and
$217,047 for Q3-06 as compared to $4,364 for Q3-05. The increase of $499,114, or 1,706% and
$212,683, or 4,874%, in Other, net in Y3-06 as compared to Y3-05 and Q3-06 as compared to Q3-05,
respectively, was primarily attributable to the change in the fair value marked-to-market through
earnings for the derivative liability associated with the senior unsecured notes issued in November
2005.

to $6,926,313 at December 31, 2005, an increase of $20,425,180. This increase was due primarily to

December 31, 2005. This increase in net working capital of $21,111,278 was due primarily to the
proceeds from the sale of Baseline StudioSystems, offset in part by the $6,046,484 reclassification
of senior unsecured notes to current liabilities in Q3-06.
Net cash used in operating activities for continued operations was $5,026,785 and $5,605,818
during Y3-06 and Y3-05, respectively, which cash usage for Y3-06 included, among other things,
$1,910,418 to purchase Broadway ticketing inventory held for sale during 2006. Net
cash provided by investing activities for continued operations was $24,624,332 for Y3-06 compared
to net cash used in investing activities of $768,267 for Y3-05, which cash usage for Y3-06
included, among other things $25,695,214 in sale proceeds, net of costs, related to the sale of
the Baseline operation, partially offset by $832,320 in expenditures for computer equipment and other

Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $327,907 and $2,228,519
during Y3-06 and Y3-05, respectively, which cash proceeds for Y3-06 included among other things,
$371,684 in proceeds from option and warrant exercises net of issuance costs partially offset by
$43,777 in capital lease payments.
Sale of Baseline StudioSystems Business Unit to The New York Times Company
On August 25, 2006, Hollywood Media, entered into and simultaneously closed on a definitive
stock purchase agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with The New York Times Company, a New York
corporation (The New York Times), pursuant to which The New York Times purchased all of the
outstanding capital stock of Hollywood Medias wholly-owned subsidiary, Baseline Acquisitions Corp.
(BAC), for a cash purchase price of $35,000,000. BAC was the subsidiary of Hollywood Media which
owned Hollywood Medias Baseline business unit. Baseline constituted a portion of Hollywood Medias
Data Business Division. This sale to The New York Times did not include the other components of
Hollywood Medias Data Business (e.g., CinemaSource, EventSource
and ExhibitorAds). $3.5 million dollars of the purchase price is being held in escrow for twelve months following the
closing to cover potential indemnification claims by The New York Times under the terms of the
Purchase Agreement. The purchase price is subject to potential post-closing adjustment based on the
closing date working capital and net debt of the businesses sold. The post closing adjustment, as
per the agreement, is expected to be settled within 120 days of
closing, and such adjustment is not expected to be material. Hollywood Medias expenditures
relating to the sale included approximately $1.5 million in fees and expenses payable to Hollywood
Medias financial advisor, J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc., and approximately $2.8 million in
sale-related contractual bonuses payable under performance formulas in preexisting employment
agreements with the two principal managers of Baseline. These managers are no longer employees of

2004 Private Placement
In February 2004, Hollywood Media completed a private placement of common stock,
which included the issuance of 5,773,355 shares of common stock to investors and five-year warrants
to purchase an aggregate of 1,732,006 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $2.84 per
share. Hollywood Medias net cash proceeds from the private placement were approximately $15.1
million after deduction of expenses in connection with the transaction. Hollywood Media received
approximately $18,403 and $803,664 net of placement agent commission, from the exercise of a
portion of these warrants during 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Senior Unsecured Notes Issued in 2005
On November 23, 2005, Hollywood Media issued and sold $7,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
its Senior Unsecured Notes (the Senior Notes) for aggregate gross cash proceeds of $7,000,000.
The notes carry an 8% interest rate and an initial 12 month term, on which interest is payable in
quarterly installments commencing December 31, 2005. The principal is payable in cash or, at
Hollywood Medias option, in shares of Hollywood Medias common stock valued on a per share basis
at a 5% discount from the 20-day volume-weighted average market price per share of the common stock
(VWAP) as of the payment date, subject to certain conditions to such option including but not
limited to the requirement that the shares be registered for resale. Hollywood Medias proceeds
related to the issuance, net of issuance costs, was $6,595,690. The holders of the Senior Notes
also received warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of Hollywood Medias common stock at an exercise
price of $4.29 per share. In March 2006, Hollywood Media exercised its option under the terms of
the Senior Notes, to extend the maturity date of the Senior Notes to May 23, 2007 in exchange for
the delivery of additional five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of
Hollywood Medias common stock with exercise price per share at $4.29. The Senior Notes are not
convertible at the option of the holders.
Conversion of the Convertible Debenture due May 22, 2006
On May 22, 2006, the remaining $1,000,000 principal amount of the 6% Senior Convertible
Debentures due May 22, 2006 (the Debentures) was converted into shares of Hollywood Medias
common stock at a conversion price of $3.20 per share. As a result of such conversion, at
September 30, 2006, Hollywood Media had a $0 principal amount of the Debentures outstanding.
Outlook
The increase in cash and cash equivalents during Q3-06 is a source of capital we are utilizing
for our business activities. The growth of our businesses, including our data syndication,
ticketing and Ad Sales operations has required substantial financing, and may require additional
capital to fund our growth plans and for working capital, which capital requirements we contemplate
would be satisfied from our cash and cash equivalents on hand. Based on our current plans and
assumptions for operations and investment and financing activities, we estimate that our cash and
cash equivalents on hand and anticipated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our
working capital and investment requirements through the end of the twelve-month period ending
September 30, 2007. If our plans change or our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, we may need to
seek further financing or curtail our growth and/or operations. We believe that our long-term
financial success ultimately depends on our ability to generate enough revenue to offset operating
expenses.

In 2005, Hollywood Media invested approximately $3.9 million in cash to consummate its
acquisition of U.K. based CinemasOnline for integration with our Source Business and our Ad Sales
division.
Our capital expenditures during Y3-06 (excluding discontinued operations) were $832,320. We
currently anticipate additional capital expenditures in 2006 to be approximately $500,000 for
various systems and equipment upgrades. These anticipated 2006 capital expenditures do not include
any estimates for potential business acquisitions.
See Selling, General and Administrative above regarding our ongoing implementation of
cost-saving measures including offshore outsourcing.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we did not have any relationships with
unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured
finance or special purpose entities, which were established for the purpose of facilitating
off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes of the sort
contemplated by paragraph 4 of Item 303 of SEC Regulation S-K. As such, management believes that
we currently do not have any disclosures to make of the sort contemplated by paragraph 4 of Item
303 regarding off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
In response to the SECs Release Number 33-8040 Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About
Critical Accounting Policies and SEC Release Number 33-8056, Commission Statement about
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we have
identified the following critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments
and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of
the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we will evaluate our estimates, including
those related to asset impairment, accruals for compensation and related benefits, revenue
recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, and contingencies and litigation. These estimates are
based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates
under different assumptions or conditions. For additional information about our significant
accounting policies, including the
-45-
Table of Contents
critical accounting policies discussed below, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Hollywood Media maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting
from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Companys accounting for
doubtful accounts contains uncertainty because management must use judgment to assess the
collectibility of these accounts. When preparing these estimates, management considers a number of
factors, including the aging of a customers account, past transactions with customers,
creditworthiness of specific customers, historical trends and other information. The allowance for
doubtful accounts was $1,230,897 and $1,756,254 at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
respectively. The net decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in the allowance of $786,396
in CinemasOnline offset by an increase of $223,018 in the Broadway Ticketing Division. Although
the Company believes its allowance is sufficient, if the financial condition of the Companys
customers were to unexpectedly deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
payments, additional allowances may be required that could materially impact the Companys
consolidated financial statements. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts
receivable are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Companys customer base
and their dispersion across many different geographical regions.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue recognition policies for ticketing, syndication, advertising and book packaging and
licensing, are set forth below.
Ticketing. Ticket revenue is derived from the sale of live theater tickets for
Broadway, off-Broadway and London shows to individuals, groups, travel agencies, tour groups and
educational organizations. Proceeds from these sales received in advance of the corresponding
performance activity are recorded as deferred revenue at the time of receipt, and are recognized as
revenue in the period the performance of the show occurs.
Gift certificate revenue is derived from the sale of gift certificates for Broadway,
off-Broadway, London shows and Dinner and Show sales to individuals, groups, travel agencies, tour
groups and corporate programs. Proceeds from these sales are included in Deferred Revenue in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at the time of receipt, and are recognized as
revenue in the period the performance of the show occurs.
Hotel package revenue is derived from the sale of exclusive allocation rooms provided by New
York City hotels to individuals and groups. Proceeds from these sales are recorded on a net basis
and are included in Customer Deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet,
at the time of receipt, and are recognized as revenue on the day of departure from the hotel.
Dinner voucher revenue is derived from the sale of dinner vouchers for meals at upscale
restaurants in New York City to individuals and groups. Proceeds from these sales are recorded on
a net basis and are included in Customer Deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated
balance sheet, at the time of receipt, and are recognized as revenue on the date the voucher is
presented, or upon expiration of the voucher.
-46-
Table of Contents
In July 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF
Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. This consensus
provides guidance concerning under what circumstances a company should report revenue based on (a)
the gross amount billed to a customer because it has earned revenue from the sale of goods or
services or (b) the net amount retained (that is, the amount billed to the customer less the amount
paid to a supplier) because it has earned a commission or fee. Hollywood Medias existing
accounting policies conform to the EITF consensus. Ticket revenue and cost of revenue-ticketing are
recorded on a gross basis in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Hotel revenues packages and vouchers sold for New York restaurants are reported on a net basis in
the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Self-Insurance Accruals
Hollywood Media maintains an accrual for self-insured retentions for its health benefits
programs and limits its exposure by maintaining stop-loss and aggregate liability coverage. The
estimate of the Companys self-insurance liability contains uncertainty since management must use
judgment to estimate the ultimate cost that will be incurred to settle reported claims and
unreported claims for incidents incurred but not reported as of the balance sheet date. When
estimating the Companys self-insurance liability, management considers a number of factors, which
include historical claim experience. The self-insurance program was initiated in June 2004 and
the Company has recorded the maximum amount of potential liability under the stop-loss insurance
coverage due to the lack of historical claims experience data available for the current health care
plan.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Effective December 31, 2001, Hollywood Media adopted SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS No. 144 superseded SFAS 121, Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of (SFAS 121) and
the accounting and reporting provisions of APB 30, Reporting the Results of Operations
Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, (APB 30) for the disposal of a segment of a
business. Consistent with SFAS 121, SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on
long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted
cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amount.
We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets not held for sale by comparing the
carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with them.
At the time such evaluations indicate that the future undiscounted cash flows of certain long-lived
assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying values of such assets, the assets are adjusted to
their fair values. We determined fair value as the net present value of future cash flows. Based on
these evaluations, there were no adjustments to the carrying value of long lived assets in 2005,
2004, or 2003 other than the asset write downs discussed in Note 9 Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2005.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets acquired after
June 30, 2001 were no longer subject to amortization. Goodwill and intangibles
-47-
Table of Contents
with indefinite lives acquired prior to June 30, 2001 ceased to be amortized beginning January
1, 2002. In addition, SFAS 142 changed the way we evaluated goodwill and intangibles for
impairment. Beginning January 1, 2002, goodwill and certain intangibles are no longer amortized;
however, they are subject to evaluation for impairment at least annually using a fair value based
test. The fair value based test is a two-step test. The first step involved comparing the fair
value of each of our reporting units to the carrying value of those reporting units. If the
carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, we are required to
proceed to the second step. In the second step, the fair value of the reporting unit would be
allocated to the assets (including unrecognized intangibles) and liabilities of the reporting unit,
with any residual representing the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be
recognized if and to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeded the implied value.
As prescribed by SFAS 142, we completed the transitional goodwill impairment test by the
second quarter of 2002 which did not result in an impairment charge. Additionally, Hollywood Media
established October 1, as its annual impairment test date and conducted required testing on that
date in 2005, 2004 and 2003 and there were no adjustments to the carrying value of long-lived
assets other than the asset write downs discussed in Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2005. As of September 30, 2006 and as of the date of this 10-Q report, we are
not aware of any items or events that would cause us to adjust the recorded value of Hollywood
Medias goodwill for impairment. Future changes in estimates used to conduct the impairment
review, including revenue projections or market values could cause the analysis to indicate that
Hollywood Medias goodwill is impaired in subsequent periods and result in a write-off of a portion
or all of the goodwill. In order to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value calculations of our
reporting units on the impairment calculation, we applied a hypothetical 10% decrease to the fair
values of each reporting unit. This hypothetical decrease would not result in the impairment of
goodwill of any reporting unit.
Inflation and Seasonality
Although we cannot accurately determine the precise effects of inflation, we do not believe
inflation has a material effect on revenue or results of operations. We consider our business to be
somewhat seasonal and expect net revenues to be generally higher during the second and fourth
quarters of each fiscal year for our Tekno Books book licensing business as a result of the general
publishing industry practice of paying royalties semi-annually. The Broadway Ticketing Business is
also effected by seasonal variations with net revenues generally higher in the second quarter as a
result of increased sales volumes due to the Tony Awards© and in the fourth quarter due to
increased sales volume during the holiday period. In addition, although not seasonal, our Intellectual
Properties division and NetCo Partners both experience fluctuations in their respective revenue
streams, earnings and cash flow as a result of the amount of time that is expended in the creation
and development of the intellectual properties and their respective licensing agreements. The
recognition of licensing revenue is typically triggered by specific contractual events which occur
at different points in time rather than on a regular periodic basis.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in our assets or liabilities that
might occur due to changes in market rates and prices, such as interest or foreign currency
exchange rates, as well as other relevant market rate or price changes.
Interest rates charged on Hollywood Medias debt instruments are primarily fixed in nature.
We therefore do not believe that the risk of loss relating to the effect of changes in market
interest rates is material.
We have an investment in several subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and sell our services into
this foreign market. Our foreign net asset/exposures (defined as assets denominated in foreign
currency less liabilities denominated in foreign currency) for the United Kingdom at September 30,
2006 and December 31, 2005 of U.S. dollar equivalents was $133,933 and $9,847, respectively.
Our United Kingdom subsidiaries sell services and pay for products and services in British
pounds. A decrease in the British foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar could adversely
impact our margins. An assumed 10% depreciation of these foreign currencies relative to the U.S.
dollar (i.e., in addition to actual exchange experience) would have resulted in a translation
reduction of our revenue by $121,841 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
As the assets, liabilities and transactions of our United Kingdom subsidiaries are denominated
in British pounds, the results and financial condition are subject to translation adjustments upon
their conversion into U.S. dollars for our financial reporting purposes. A 10% decline in this
foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar (i.e., in addition to actual exchange experience)
would have resulted in a translation reduction of $6,202 on the operating loss for the quarter
ended September 30, 2006. However, a larger decline in the British foreign currency could have a
larger and possibly material adverse affect.
We purchase and sell live theater tickets to shows in Londons West End. We minimize our
exposure to adverse changes in currency exchange rates by taking steps to reduce the time lag
between the purchase and payment of tickets for the London shows and the collection of related
sales proceeds. We do not believe the risk of loss relating to adverse changes in currency
exchange rates to be material.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of Hollywood
Medias management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Accounting Officer, of the
effectiveness of Hollywood Medias disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q report. Based
on that evaluation and the material weakness described below, Hollywood Medias management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, have concluded that Hollywood
Medias disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of September 30, 2006, to ensure
that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act
is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules
and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and (ii)
-49-
Table of Contents
accumulated and communicated to Hollywood Medias management, including the Chief Executive Officer
and the Chief Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As previously reported in Hollywood Medias Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2006,
Hollywood Medias management assessed the effectiveness of
Hollywood Medias internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 and included
its Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting in such Form 10-K. The Report on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting concluded that certain deficiencies in Hollywood Medias Broadway
Ticketing business, which are more fully described in such Form 10-K, constituted a material
weakness in Hollywood Medias internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness in
internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 2), or a combination of control
deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As
of September 30, 2006, Hollywood Media had not fully remediated this material weakness.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in Hollywood Medias internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the three months ended
September 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
Hollywood Medias internal control over financial reporting.
