Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Forward Looking Statements
--------------------------
The information set forth below relating to matters that are not
historical facts are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and involve risks and uncertainties
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
such forward looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are
not limited to, the following:
o A decline in national and regional advertising
o Preference by customers of other forms of advertising such as newspapers
and magazines, outdoor advertising, network radio advertising, yellow page
directories and point of sale advertising
o Loss of executive management personnel
o Ability to maintain and establish new relations with radio stations
o Ability to predict public taste with respect to entertainment programs
Three-Month and Six-Month Periods Ended May 31, 2000 and May 31, 1999
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Reference is made to Item 6, "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan
of Operation" included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
year ended November 30, 1999, as amended, on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The following discussion and analysis pertains to the
Company's results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended
May 31, 2000, compared to the results of operations for the three-month and
six-month periods ended May 31, 1999, and to changes in the Company's financial
condition from November 30, 1999 to May 31, 2000.
REVENUES. Total revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2000 were
$3,456,889 compared to total revenues of $899,385 for the same period in 1999,
representing an increase of $2,557,504, or 284%. Total revenues for the six
months ended May 31, 2000 were $5,386,872 compared to total revenues of
$1,121,832 for the same period in 1999, representing an increase of $4,265,040,
or 380%. These increases were principally due to the Company's acquisition of
programming over the past year. The Company acquired multiple long-form programs
to complement its current list of short form programs. The long-form programming
offers the Company significantly more commercial broadcast inventory available
for sale. The increase in inventory has resulted in significant revenue growth.
In addition to this, the continued growth of the Company's network affiliates
airing their programs has provided the Company the opportunity to charge higher
spot rates for their commercial broadcast time resulting in higher revenues.
COSTS OF GOODS SOLD. Costs of goods sold for the three months ended May
31, 2000 and 1999 were $1,129,974 and $258,337, respectively, representing an
increase of $871,637, or 337%. Cost of goods sold for the six months ended May
31, 2000 and 1999 were $1,704,472 and $354,611, respectively, representing an
increase of $1,349,861, or 381%. These increases are due
<PAGE>
primarily to the increase costs of producing long-form programs. Long-form
programs are more expensive to produce due to the increased cost of delivery of
the program via satellite and the extra telephone charges incurred for caller
driven programs. Short-form programs are distributed on CD via the mail, a much
less expensive form of distribution. As a percentage of total revenues costs of
goods sold were 33% for the three months ended May 31, 2000 and 29% for the same
period in 1999. The increase is due mainly to the higher cost of delivery for
the long form programming. As a percentage of total revenues costs of goods sold
were 32% for the six months ended May 31, 2000 and 32% for the same period in
1999.
GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin for the three months ended May 31, 2000 was
$2,326,915, an increase of $1,685,907, or 263%, compared to the same period
1999. Gross margin for the six months ended May 31, 2000 was $3,682,400, an
increase of $2,915,179, or 380%, compared to the same period in 1999. These
increases in gross margin are principally due to the Company's significant
increase in total revenues for the first six months of 2000.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses
for the three months ended May 31, 2000 was $1,288,388, representing an increase
of $588,201, or 84% over the same period in 1999. The increase is mainly
attributable to amortization and depreciation (non-cash costs) increasing
$518,373 from $57,097 in 1999 to $575,470 for the same period in 2000. The
increase is due to the amortization of goodwill associated with business and
programming acquisitions by the Company. General and administrative expenses for
the six months ended May 31, 2000 were $2,454,088, representing an increase of
$1,297,113, or 112% over the same period in 1999. The increase is mainly
attributable to two areas. Amortization and depreciation (non-cash costs) for
the six months ended May 31, 2000 increased $999,657 from $94,262 in 1999 to
$1,093,919 in 2000. The increase is due to the amortization of goodwill
associated with business and programming acquisitions by the Company. This
goodwill is being amortized over a period of time ranging from three to ten
years. The second area of increase is from wages and employee benefits. The
increase of $365,673, or 92%, from $398,965 for the six months ended May 31,
1999 to $764,638, for the same period in 2000 is mainly due to the increase in
staff size and infrastructure necessary to support the growth of the Company.
The Company grew from 20 full-time employees in the second quarter of 1999 to 32
full-time employees in the second quarter of 2000. While there was an increase
in absolute dollars for wages and employee benefits, there was a decrease when
compared to the percentage of total revenues. For the six months ended May 31,
2000 wages and employee benefits were $764,638, or 14% of total revenues as
compared to $398,965, or 36% of total revenues for the same period in 1999.
Total general and administrative expenses for the six months ended May 31, 2000
was $2,454,088, or 46% of total revenues as compared to $1,156,975, or 103% of
total revenues for the same period in 1999. Management expects the absolute
dollars for general and administrative expenses to continue to grow as the
Company attempts to acquire new programming and continues to develop existing
programs.
INCOME TAXES. Due to loss carryforwards, there was no provision for income
taxes during the six months ended May 31, 2000 and May 31, 1999.
NET LOSS AND EARNINGS PER SHARE. Net income for the three months ended May
31, 2000 was $1,038,527, or $.09 per share. Net loss for the three months ended
May 31, 1999 was $59,179, or $.01 per share. Net income for the six months ended
May 31, 2000 was $1,228,312, or $.10 per share. Net loss for the six months
ended May 31, 1999 was $389,754, or $.04 per share. The loss for 1999 was mainly
due to reduced revenues as the Company transitioned to mainly cash clients and
no barter transactions.
<PAGE>
Earnings per share are based upon the weighted average of 12,175,293 and
10,724,033 shares outstanding on May 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
Historically, the Company has financed its cash flow requirements through
cash flows generated from operations and financing activities. The Company's
working capital at May 31, 2000 was $4.50 million compared to $1.35 million at
May 31, 1999. The increase in working capital was primarily due to an increase
in accounts receivable in connection with the growth in total revenues of the
Company.
The Company has no long-term debt.
Management believes that its available cash together with operating
revenues will be sufficient to fund the Company's working capital requirements
through November 30, 2000. The Company's management further believes it has
sufficient liquidity to implement its expansion and acquisition strategies.
