NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Revised and Unaudited)
PART I. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The balance sheet as of September 30, 1995, the statements of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the statement of
cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 have been
prepared by registrant without audit. The accompanying unaudited interim
financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of those of a
normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in registrant's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.
LITTLE PRINCE PRODUCTIONS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On August 22, 1994, in order to substantially reduce the deficit on shareholders
equity, registrant exchanged agreements with Riparian Securities Limited
("Riparian"), its legal advisors and the then officers and directors of the
company, whereby 11,000,000 shares in the common stock of the company were to be
issued for $495,146. Of this total consideration, $32,500 was for cash with the
remaining $462,656 applied to the cancellation of liabilities. These agreements
were completed on October 3, 1994. These agreements are more fully discussed in
Registrant's 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.
On January 17, 1995 Riparian transferred its entire holding to the Patchouli
Foundation ("Patchouli"), a Liechtenstein Stiftung and as at March 31, 1995
Patchouli owned 25% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the company.
In order to reduce outstanding liabilities relating to legal, audit and
secretarial services and also to meet the excess of continuing operating costs
of Registrant over income; including those costs associated with meeting the
regulatory requirements of registrant, $10,217 was realized from the sale of
investments at book value during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 of
which $717 was realized in the three months ended September 30, 1995. In
addition, in the nine months ended September 30, 1995 Patchouli advanced funds
by way of loans to Registrant totalling $78,808 of which $12,548 was advanced in
the three months ended September 30, 1995. Patchouli has continued to advance
further funds since that date.
Management does not believe that Registrant has the ability to raise adequate
resources from its existing revenue operations. Registrant is therefore
dependent in the short term from continued loans from Patchouli and in the
longer term upon increasing its authorized share capital in order to acquire
through the issue of additional shares in its common stock a suitable business
to satisfy the minimum financial criteria for inclusion in the National
Association of Security Dealers, Inc. automated quotation system ("NASDAQ") as
previously stated in Registrant's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1994.
Management intends to call a meeting of Registrant's shareholders for the
purpose of, among other things, increasing the amount of authorized capital
stock.
Capital Resources
Registrant had no material commitments for capital expenditure at either
September 30, 1995 or December 31, 1994.
Results of Operations
Income in the quarter arose from fees received from the licensing of various
theatrical productions. This income did not reflect any change in the business
of Registrant but typified the nature of the business and timing of the income
generated.
LITTLE PRINCE PRODUCTIONS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Throughout the nine months ended September 30, 1995 management's primary task
has been to deal with the preparation and completion of the various financial
and regulatory documentation which Registrant has been required to file, some of
which had been overdue. All filings are now up to date. The majority of the
operating costs of $89,592 incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 1995
related specifically to the audit, accounting, secretarial and legal costs
associated with the preparation of the aforementioned documentation. Included
within the total for operating costs for the quarter to September 30, 1995 is a
charge of $13,930 by way of a provision against the loans due from a former
partner in a joint venture in order to reflect management's doubts as to their
recoverability.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Litigation Settlement Agreements
On December 18, 1990, an action against the Parent company commenced before the
Tribunal de Grande Instance of Paris, France. The Plaintiff was seeking a
judicial declaration of the termination of the agreement to engage in the
exploitation of certain ancillary and subsidiary rights in connection with the
literary work entitled "The Little Prince," an illustrated story by the French
author, Antoine de Saint-Exupery (the "Agreement"), together with reimbursement
of all sums received and damages and legal fees of approximately $200,000. In
February 1992, an agreement was reached to settle the above matter whereby the
Parent Company would receive $200,000 in return for giving up certain foreign
rights as follows: $50,000 payable upon full performance of the Settlement
Agreement and four payments of $25,000 every 3 months thereafter with a final
payment of $50,000 by November 1993. All monies have now been received. Accrued
legal expenses thereon of $150,692 were payable. The settlement also stipulates
that the Parent must abandon the corporate name "Little Prince Productions Ltd."
within 18 months from February 6, 1992. As at the date of this report, the name
of the company has not been changed nor has any action been commenced by the
plaintiff.
Submission of Vote to Security Holders
No matters have been submitted to the vote of Security Holders in the quarter.
