PART
I
Item
1 - Description of Business
Formation and
History
We were
incorporated in the State of Delaware under the name 51142 Inc. on February 2,
2005 as a blank check company to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking,
including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions.
On July
8, 2005, pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement, Signet
Entertainment Corporation, a Florida corporation, purchased all of our issued
and outstanding common stock for cash consideration of
$36,000. Subsequently, we changed our name to Signet International
Holdings, Inc.
On
September 8, 2005, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange by
and among us, Signet Entertainment Corporation, and the shareholders of Signet
Entertainment Corporation (“Shareholders”), we acquired all of the then issued
and outstanding preferred and common shares of Signet Entertainment Corporation
for a total of 3,421,000 common shares and 5,000,000 preferred shares
of our stock which was issued to the Signet Entertainment Corporation
shareholders. Pursuant to the agreement Signet Entertainment
Corporation became our wholly owned subsidiary.
Plan of
Operation
The
Company’s current long-range business plan is oriented towards the building of a
new broadcast media group comprised of television stations and complimentary
syndication and production companies serving mid to large sized U.S.
markets. Upon the completion of our fund-raising efforts to
adequately capitalize our business plan we intend to grow into one of the most
significant and diversified television broadcasting companies in the country
today. Our business plan focuses on three
complimentary segments: ownership and operations of various television stations,
ownership of a programming and syndication company and the ownership and
operation of a television production company.
Currently,
we only have a single wholly-owned subsidiary, Signet Entertainment Corporation
(“SIG”), which was incorporated on October 17, 2003 for the purpose of launching
a “gaming and entertainment” television network. We will purchase,
lease, and employ the apparatus, equipment, and personnel necessary to establish
the network. The network will cover major Poker and Blackjack
tournaments as well as other major high stakes casino games. The
network will also cover via satellite and cable other sports events such as
horse racing and selected global events which have a sports and
entertainment format. SIG’s largest source of revenue will come from
advertising, specifically from various resorts and casinos, and sporting sites
in North and South America, Europe, Asia and Africa. SIG will realize
income from infomercials and sports and entertainment programming that offer
subject matter that are all-encompassing to the network’s
format. Signet International Holdings, Inc. does not have
international operations.
It is our
opinion that we are not a blank check company as defined in Rule 419 under the
Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) since we have conducted operating
activities and have taken affirmative steps in the operation of our business.
Our primary business plan is that of a television broadcasting
company. Part of our business plan includes the acquisition of other
LPTV stations, however, any such acquisition would be contemplated
only so far as such acquisition would further our business plan
to launch a television broadcasting company. Please note
that the only business acquisitions will be solely of LPTV stations or other
broadcast properties and that we will not enter into any agreement that will
result in a change of control. We will not enter into any
acquisition that requires Mr. Letiziano, our sole officer and director, to give
up voting control of our stock or requires his resignation as our
officer or director. In the event we acquire other entities in the
future, Mr. Letiziano will maintain his ownership interest as well as his
positions with us as full-time Chief Executive Officer and majority
stockholder.
General
In order
to implement its purpose of launching a gaming and entertainment television
network, SIG entered into agreements with Triple Play Media Management, Inc.
(“Triple Play”) and Big Vision, Inc. (“Big Vision”). Pursuant to the
agreements, Triple Play will operate our facilities and provide programming
content. Triple Play will produce television shows (programs) in the gaming and
entertainment genre. Triple Play will also negotiate with
rights-holders of old re-run television shows and provide these
shows for additional programming. Big Vision will provide the
equipment and technology to establish the facility.
Pursuant
to our Management Agreement with Triple Play, Triple Play has agreed to manage
and operate our facility in exchange for financial and administrative support of
its ready-to-launch, new television network, “The Gaming & Entertainment
Network.” In essence, we will provide the facilities, while Triple
Play will provide the management of such facilities as well as programming
content. We will pay Triple Play a management fee of 12% each year,
provided we realize a minimum pre-tax net profit of 25%. In addition,
we will provide an allowance for costs related to licensing, permits, and other
fees related to broadcasting equal to one-half percent of total gross
revenues. In exchange, we will receive 87.5% of Triple Play’s gross
revenues less operating expenses.
Our
Management Agreement with Big Vision provides for the use by us of Big Vision’s
equipment and property for the staging of our facility. In exchange for use of
the facilities, we will pay a service fee to Big Vision on a “most favored
nation” basis for the first year of our operations. “Most
favored nation” basis is a term used in the TV Production Industry to indicate
that the rates charged by producers (in this case Big Vision) will be
below fair-market rates, or at “wholesale” costs. In essence, in our
first year, we will pay Big Vision a fee equal to its costs in
providing the equipment and facilities. After the initial year, we
will pay Big Vision industry standard rates plus an additional
15%.
In
addition, to further the launch of our gaming and entertainment television
network we purchased the exclusive rights to 20 titled half hour screen plays
representing original programming from FreeHawk Productions, Inc. The
Company's agreement with FreeHawk dated April 13, 2006 provides for the purchase
by Signet of the exclusive rights to 20 half-hour TV screen plays each with an
additional 13 episodes. FreeHawk was to receive $450,000 in cash and
550,000 shares of Signet common stock over a minimum of 36 months payments to be
made subject to delivery of the screen plays as scheduled by
Signet. On August 19, 2006, by mutual agreement, Signet and FreeHawk
rescinded this agreement because the agreement called for the payment of funds
and stock which we can not pay until such time as our shares are trading and we
can receive additional financing. Therefore, the parties mutually
agreed that the agreement was premature and therefore the agreement was
rescinded without the payment of any cash or stock to FreeHawk by
us. We intend to enter into a restructured agreement, at such time as
we are a public company and can raise the necessary
capital. At this time, there are no discussions to restructure the
agreement.
Furthermore,
we intend to acquire Low-Powered Television (LPTV) stations as a means for
distributing our programming to viewers. Currently, we do not own any
LPTV stations or other broadcast properties, nor do we own or have control over
an FCC licenses to operate any LPTV stations. We believe that LPTV
affords an opportunity for entry into television broadcasting and
has permitted fuller use of the broadcast spectrum. LPTV stations
offer national advertisers highly defined audiences. As advertisers
search for ways to reach targeted demographic groups, we believe LPTV stations
will become an increasingly important part of their advertising
strategy. We plan on targeting LPTV stations that are sanctioned by
the Federal Communication Commission with current and clear license to operate
and feature: Class A rating, high-distribution (high number of TV households),
favorable market location, up-to-date equipment, tower delivery systems, and
studio properties.
Programming
Triple Play Media
Management, Inc.
Triple
Play’s programming niche is “gaming.” Presently, there are no
channels formatted exclusively for the gaming customer whose interest
is focused on the vast variety of gaming activities, domestically as well as
internationally, including “sports and entertainment.” This type of
network is unique to the television industry.
The
Gaming & Entertainment Network will cover major poker and blackjack
tournaments and high stakes major table games, especially those from Hong Kong,
South America and the Outback of Australia. The activities in the Las
Vegas, Reno and Laughlin, Nevada areas, and various Florida venues
alone, host high stakes tournaments on a daily basis. Triple Play will produce
domestic and international feeds covering thoroughbred and quarter-horse racing;
coverage of fluctuation and trends within sports books from selected
locations around the world; scheduled hourly updating of betting lines on
sporting events; and a remote coverage of all betting sports, to
delivering our personal insight and commentary, live from the sites of
origination. Handicapping shows will feature the “how-to” of betting, who’s
betting, and why.
Along
with, and part of, the gaming and sports coverage, Triple Play will offer shows
exploring the insights of the hotel and casino business; offer
original formatted airing of special events taking place in the hotels and
casinos around the world, including profiles of the shows and headliners, their
acts and silhouetting behind the scenes action. Triple Play will feature a newly
developed format called “Dialing for Dollars, Satellite Pay Per View
Bingo.”
Our
agreement with Triple Play provides that we will pay management fees in the
amount of 12% provided that we realize a minimum pre tax net profit
of 25%. We also will provide an allowance for costs of licenses and
permits for international airwaves and feeds, duties and taxes, satellite
transmission links, down links, including earth stations in the amount of 0.05%
(one-half of one percent) of the total gross revenues. In addition,
as further consideration for Richard Grad’s agreement for Triple Play’s
exclusive services, we paid Mr. Grad a signing bonus of $50,000 upon
funding of the our offering. We are also obligated to pay the
following compensation each year during the entire term of the agreement,
including extensions thereto: guaranteed payment of $200,000 per year payable to
Richard Grad. This amount will be payable at the beginning of each
month at the rate of twelve equal installments. We will
also provide Mr. Grad with an allowance of $1,500 for moving and relocating
expenses. In addition, we will provide Mr. Grad with personal life,
health dental, vision and accident insurance. Mr. Grad owns
approximately 401,000 shares (or 10%) of our common
stock.
Other
Programming
In
addition to the programs produced by Triple Play, we intend to produce our own
original programming and air infomercials during off-peak hours.
On April
13, 2006, we purchased the exclusive rights to 20 titled half hour screen plays
representing original programming. This contract was later rescinded on August
19, 2006 by mutual agreement of the parties.
Big Vision,
Inc.
In
addition to the exclusive contract with Triple Play whose primary purpose is
creating original programming, distribution and international sales and
satellite delivery systems, we executed a long-term contract on July 22, 2005
with Big Vision, Inc. whose primary purpose is television production,
transmitting and ground crew pick up. Big Vision is a Las Vegas,
Nevada based video production company offers all TV production amenities
required of any variety of television programming. Big Vision also
owns a 12,000 square feet facility in Burbank, CA serving clients
nationwide and abroad.
Big
Vision is best known for its production mobile facilities which will be used to
support Triple Play. Big Visions’ services range from original video
production to providing the technical management, professional crewing and
equipment for major broadcast series and events. It has recently
added a sophisticated sound delivery system and a complete line of High
Definition delivery techniques with new cameras, recorders, and
monitors.
We expect
a lot of our live programming will be originating from Las Vegas. Big
Vision will assure continuous local programming from Las Vegas, with
on site editing facilities and distribution capabilities. Our access
to Big Vision’s studio and portable television equipment enables us
to deliver the news-worthy Las Vegas events soon after their
occurrence. The affiliation assures uninterrupted local programming
coverage by Big Vision and at the same time gives Triple Play the flexibility to
initiate its broadcast and programming schedules in the European,
Asian, North and South American markets.
Our
agreement with Big Vision provides for the payment of a service fee to Big
Vision on a “most favored nation basis” for the first year of our
operations. “Most favored nation” basis is a term used in the TV
Production Industry to indicate that the rates charged by producers (in this
case Big Vision) will be below fair-market rates, or at “wholesale” costs. After
the initial year, we will pay Big Vision service fees at the industry standard
rates plus an additional 15% in consideration for Big Vision’s
concession in rates during the first year. We agree to
continue paying the industry rates plus 15% for as long as this agreement is in
place. It is understood that all fees will be paid as they become due
and payable according to Big Vision’s requirements.
The
combination of contracting with Triple Play and Big Vision will provide us the
unique opportunity to at once inaugurate not only the infomercial scheduled
segments but also the on-going programming operations.
Distribution
We plan
to distribute our programming via in-home satellite services, digital cable
companies, and LPTV stations. Although we have not entered into any
formal agreements with any such companies, we received a non-binding pricing
proposal from a satellite delivery system.
Low Power Television
Stations.
We intend
to acquire Low-Powered Television (LPTV) stations as another means for
distributing our programming to viewers. We intend acquiring LPTV
stations initially on a stock swap basis. With additional funding
from a secondary offering we will begin offering cash instead of or
in addition to stock, for some of the stations we purchase. We
believe that LPTV affords an opportunity for entry into television
broadcasting and has permitted fuller use of the broadcast
spectrum. LPTV stations transmit on one of the standard VHF or UHF
television channels. The distance at which a station can be viewed
depends on a variety of factors such as antenna height, transmitter powers,
transmitting antenna and the nature of the terrain. Generally LPTV
stations span approximately 20 miles from their tower in all
directions.
The LPTV
services were established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in
1992. It was primarily intended to provide opportunities for locally
oriented television service in small communities within larger urban
areas.
We have
taken preliminary steps in the acquisition process. These steps
include: learning more about the LPTV industry, researching the fit
of a number of opportunities with the Signet business plan, retaining counsel,
developing and getting approvals for a suitable stock swap agreement and
ascertaining the value of potential LPTV stations for sale. However,
we have not entered into any negotiations with any specific LPTV
stations.
Digital Terrestrial
Broadcasting Network
We
believe that digital television is becoming an integral television broadcasting
distribution channel. Digital television can deliver a large amount
of information at low cost to a high number of viewers. Digital
television can also deliver more programs than traditional analog
television over any transmission mediums.
Through
our management agreement with Triple Play, we intend to operate a 36 MHZ C-band
North American and Eutelsat DTH digital platform information
system.
Hi-Definition
Television
We have
received a confidential, non-binding proposal from a major satellite provider
for a long term lease without change in costs for the next twelve
months. The proposal offers features that we could make available as
a new delivery system. Although we anticipate that this system will
enable us to deliver HDTV (High Definition Television) to our viewers throughout
the world, we have not entered into a definitive agreement or commitment to
retain these services. Therefore, we do not have viewers throughout
the world at this stage. Please note that there is no guarantee that
we will be able to enter into a definitive agreement and no guarantee that we
will be able to offer HDTV.
Broadcast and Intellectual
Properties
On April
13, 2006 we purchased the exclusive rights to 20 titled half-hour screen plays
representing original programming from FreeHawk Productions, Inc. On
August 19, 2006, by mutual agreement, Signet and FreeHawk rescinded this
agreement. On April 20, 2007, the Company entered into a new purchase
agreement with Freehawk for 100% of the rights to 21 television series to be
produced by Freehawk exclusively for Signet. The total consideration
paid by the Company for these rights was 270,000 shares of restricted,
unregistered common stock and a $50,000 open account payable. Based
on an independent third-party appraisal, the Company valued this transaction at
approximately $2,870,625. The common stock was issued pursuant to an
exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and no underwriter was used in this transaction.
On May
22, 2007, the Company acquired the exclusive television rights to “Tales From
The moe.Republic”, by John E. Derhak. This full-length novel is in
the process of being published and is currently being sold in an abridged,
autographed limited edition through the website
www.moerepublic.org. Total consideration paid by the Company for
these rights was 113,662 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock and a
$25,000 open account payable. Based on an independent third-party
appraisal, the Company valued this transaction at approximately
$1,136,600. The common stock was issued pursuant to an exemption from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
no underwriter was used in this transaction.
Employees
We
currently have one employee, our sole officer Ernest W.
Letiziano. Mr. Letiziano is Chief Executive Officer and in that role
Mr. Letiziano will implement the business plan. This will involve all
the Duties normally ascribed to a Chief Executive Officer for the day-to-day
management of the business, including but not limited to: secure and manage
revenues, manage costs and cash, safe-guard assets, ensure proper reporting and
compliance with reporting bodies, ensure that the stockholder’s interests are
protected, manage risk and escalate issues as appropriate to the Board, conduct
regular reviews of the business with the Board, and contribute, faithfully and
diligently, to the strategic development of the business.
Competition
With the
growing availability of on demand, self-programming and search features, along
with increased competition from converging industry players in
telecommunications and the Internet, the television industry is facing
unparalleled complexity that will alter traditional TV business
models. The entertainment industry is therefore, extremely
competitive.
The
competition comes from both companies within the industry and those who are
engaged in other forms of entertainment media that create alternative forms of
leisure entertainment. The increasing gap between the major networks
and the smaller ones allows market space for smaller companies, such as Signet,
to develop.
Currently
the over the air networks may be identified by size according to the number of
TV households they attract. The basic category or groupings of the major
networks and several of the lesser but better known networks are as
follows:
•
|
Major
networks such as ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX
|
•
|
Major
cable networks such as: ESPN, USA, Bravo, Fox Sports Net, UPN, PAX, The
Travel Channel, The Tube
|
•
|
Smaller
cable networks: Food Channel, Spike TV, HGTV, Golf
Channel
|
•
|
Smaller
Cable/Satellite networks such as: CGTV Network (Canada), Variety Sports
Network, TVG Horse Racing. Such networks reach between one and eight
million TV households.
|
Our key
competitive strategy is diversification in business risk and delivery
systems. We plan to be providers of television content creation,
packaging, programming and distribution; not only to our “owned and operated”
LPTV stations, but via other distribution systems such as cable and
satellite. Additionally, we plan to have our own “sports and
entertainment network” to offer to stations and cable systems.
We will
develop and implement strategies that will not only serve this diverse audience
but will achieve significant cost savings from the traditional supply chain in
order to fund new delivery channels, whether it be cable, broadcast TV, full
power or low power, the Internet or satellite.
The
entertainment industry, and particularly the television industry, is a highly
competitive commerce. Currently this industry
is undergoing an aggressive period of mergers and
acquisitions. Once our presence is recognized, we will experience
potential competitors who have greater financial, marketing,
programming and broadcasting resources than we do.
The
markets in which we have targeted to acquire are also in a constant state of
change arising from, among other things, technological improvements
and economic and regulatory developments. Technological innovation
and the resulting proliferation of television entertainment, such as
cable television, wireless cable, satellite-to-home distribution services,
pay-per-view and home video and entertainment systems, have
fractionalized television viewing audiences and have subjected free over-the-air
television broadcast stations to increased competition. We may not be
able to compete effectively or adjust our business plans to meet
changing market conditions. We are unable to predict what form of
competition will develop in the future, the extent of the competition or its
possible effects on our businesses.
Government
Regulation
The
broadcasting industry is subject to regulation by the FCC pursuant to the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the “Communications
Act”). Approval by the FCC is required for the issuance, renewal and
assignment of station operating licenses and the transfer of control
of station licensees. Although the Company does not currently hold an
FCC license, in the event that it acquires or is granted an FCC license in the
future, the Company’s business will be dependent upon its continuing to hold
television broadcast licenses from the FCC, which license are issued for maximum
terms of eight years. While in the vast majority of cases
such licenses are renewed by the FCC, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to renew licenses it acquires or is grant at their expiration
dates. If such licenses were not renewed or acquisitions approved, we
may lose revenue that we otherwise could have earned.
Although
we do not currently own any broadcast properties, our business plan contemplates
that we may acquire such properties through acquisition of LPTV
stations. Based on same, Federal regulation of the broadcasting
industry will limit our operating flexibility, which may affect our ability to
generate revenue or reduce our costs in the event we acquire such broadcast
properties. In addition, Congress and the FCC currently have under
consideration, and may in the future adopt, new laws, regulations and policies
regarding a wide variety of matters (including technological changes) that
could, directly or indirectly, materially and adversely affect our
ability to acquire broadcast properties and the operation and ownership of such
broadcast properties. New Federal legislation may limit our ability
to conduct our business in ways that we believe would be advantageous and may
thereby negatively affect our operating results and strategic
decisions.
We have
not applied for any FCC licenses. However, application will be made
immediately subsequent to execution of an agreement which results in
the acquisition of a license, LPTV station or other broadcast
property. Although the waiting period for approval of such licenses
can take between 60-90 days, such period will have no effect on our business
since we intend to assume responsibility only upon license
approval.
Item
2 - Description of Property
We
currently operate from leased office facilities at 205 Worth Avenue, Suite 316
Palm Beach, FL 33480 under an operating lease. This lease agreement
was originally expired to expire in July 2009 and has been amended to a
month-to-month basis. The lease currently requires monthly payments
of approximately $965 and we are not responsible for any additional charges for
common area maintenance.
We also
reimburse two non-executive personnel for the use of their personal home
offices, which are not exclusive to the Company’s business, at approximately
$250 per month. These agreements are on a month-to-month
basis.
For the
respective years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company paid or accrued
an aggregate of $19,325 and $34,755 for rent under these
agreements.
Item
3 - Legal Proceedings
At the
current time, we are not presently parties to any litigation, nor to our
knowledge and belief is any litigation threatened or
contemplated. From time to time, in the future, we may become subject
to various legal proceedings that would be incidental to the ordinary conduct of
our business. At this time, we do not anticipate that any such
proceedings, if any, either individually or in the aggregate, would be material
to its business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on its future
operating results, financial condition, or cash flows.
As
disclosed in our Registration Statement filed on Form SB-2 which became
effective on February 2, 2007, we issued an aggregate of approximately 4,100,000
shares of common stock to various founders of which 680,000 shares were
registered on the Form SB-2 for unrestricted trading.
By July
2007, one founding stockholder had sold 100% of his 5,000 registered shares,
which were approximately 3.1% of the total 151,000 shares issued to him at
inception of the Company. In July 2007, it became apparent that this
founding stockholder had no intentions of assisting the Company as
promised. Consequently, we issued a demand for the return of the
remaining 146,000 shares citing misrepresentation and failure to perform
according to initial understanding between this founding stockholder and the
Company.
On
September 17, 2007, the Company filed a brief in District Court - Dallas County,
Texas petitioning for the return of the Company’s 146,000 shares of stock
pursuant to our claims. On October 1, 2007, as a result of a court
ordered mediation, we were granted rescission and recovery of 116,000 shares
with an agreement that the defendant founding stockholder would not discuss
company business with other persons and to otherwise completely separate himself
from the Company. In consideration, the Company granted this founding
shareholder the right to sell up to 100% of the 30,000 retained shares, pursuant
to Rule 144, as follows:
|
•
|
5,000
shares to be sold after November 1, 2007 AND limited to no more than 100
shares sold per week;
|
|
•
|
5,000
shares to be sold after July 1, 2008 AND limited to no more than 250
shares sold in each successive 20 day
period;
|
|
•
|
10,000
shares to be sold after July 1, 2009 with NO restrictions on either volume
or frequency; and
|
|
•
|
10,000
shares to be sold only after the Company’s closing stock price remains at
or above $5.00 per share for 30 consecutive
days.
|
The
October 1, 2007 judgment also provides that the founding stockholder will
continue to honor a Nondisclosure Agreement executed in June 2006.
As of
this filing, the founding stockholder has continued to appeal to higher courts,
without success, the results of the arbitration and the affirming decisions of
the Dallas County, Texas District Court and has not returned the aforementioned
116,000 shares of common stock. Accordingly, until returned, the
Company continues to reflect these shares as “issued and
outstanding”. We have notified our independent stock transfer agent
of this matter and have placed a trading block on these 116,000
shares.
Item
4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No
matters were submitted to a vote of our security holders during the fourth
quarter of the year ended December 31, 2007.
PART
II
Item
5 - Market for Company’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Small
Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
We filed
a request for clearance of quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board under SEC Rule
15c2-11, Subsection (a)(5) with NASD Regulation Inc. On March 7,
2007, we were issued a clearance letter and the trading symbol “SIGN” was issued
on our common stock.
Management
is of the opinion that there is a limited trading market for our equity
securities. As such, the market price of our common stock is subject
to significant fluctuations in response to variations in our
quarterly operating results, general trends in the market, and other
factors, over many of which we have little or no control. In addition, broad
market fluctuations, as well as general economic, business and political
conditions, may adversely affect the market for our common stock,
regardless of our actual or projected performance.
The
ask/high and bid/low information for each calendar quarter since March 7, 2007,

prices, without retail markup, mark-down or commission and may not represent

Results
of Operations
|
The
Company had no revenue for either of the years ended December 31, 2007 or 2006,
respectively.
General
and administrative expenses for each of the years ended December 31, 2007 and
2006 were approximately $$307,000 and $517,000,
respectively. Included in these expenses is approximately $70,000 per
year for executive salaries accrued or paid during each of the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006. We also paid or accrued approximately
$113,000 and $35,000 for administrative and other non-executive compensation
during the same comparable periods. All of the above expenses relate
to the consistent design, development, refinement and implementation of our
business plan, the maintenance of the corporate entity and the preparation and
filing of various Registration Statements and other periodic reports pursuant to
either the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as required. It is anticipated that future expenditure levels
will increase as we implement our business plan and start full-scale
operations.
Earnings
per share for the respective years ended December 31, 2007 and
2006 were $(0.07) and $(0.13) based on the weighted-average shares
issued and outstanding at the end of each respective period.
We do not
expect to generate any meaningful revenue or incur operating expenses for
purposes other than refining and implementing our business plan and maintaining
our obligations as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
unless and until such time that we begin meaningful operations.
At
December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, the Company had working capital of
approximately $(540,000) and $(177,000), respectively.
It is the
intent of management and significant stockholders to provide sufficient working
capital necessary to support and preserve the integrity of the corporate entity.
However, there is no legal obligation for either management or significant
stockholders to provide additional future funding. Should this pledge fail to
provide financing, the Company has not identified any alternative sources.
Consequently, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern.
The
Company’s need for capital may change dramatically as a result of any business
acquisition or combination transaction. There can be no assurance that the
Company will identify any such business, product, technology or company suitable
for acquisition in the future. Further, there can be no assurance that the
Company would be successful in consummating any acquisition on favorable terms
or that it will be able to profitably manage the business, product, technology
or company it acquires.
In March
2007, we began implementation of that part of our business plan relating to the
acquisition of LPTV stations by executing by executing Sale & Share Exchange
Contracts with the LPTV Stations. Although we have had no revenues
generated to date, we expect to realize revenues from operations of the LPTV
stations once an agreement is finalized and executed and we take control of an
LPTV Station. Ernie Letiziano, our sole officer, director will not
relinquish control of the company to any of the acquired LPTV
stations resulting from any of the agreement. In addition, since the
acquisition of the LPTV stations will be based upon issuing our stock in
exchange for the LPTV station’s stock, we anticipate that we will not incur any
cash expenditures other than incidental expenses such as telephone, travel and
general and administrative expenses. The expenses that we will incur
related to the LPTV acquisition have been anticipated and are part of our
monthly budget of cash-based expenses of approximately $10,500.00
per month as set forth below. The funds provided for the
budgeted monthly expenses, including the expenses for acquisition of the LPTV
stations, came from the issuance of shares raised by us in our private placement
which commenced in September 2005 and was completed in January
2006. Our current cash budget requirements of $10,500.00 per month
will be accommodated by our current cash balance of $42,000. Cash
requirements in excess of this amount are anticipated to be met through the sale
of additional equity securities, short-term loans from executive officers and/or
the proceeds of additional equity offerings in conjunction with the acquisition
of LPTV station(s).
We do not
anticipate significant expenses for the negotiating and finalizing of the
agreements since we will undertake the due diligence ourselves and do not have
to incur travel expenses to visit the stations. In addition, we have
already anticipated these expenses as part of monthly budget.
It is the
intent of management and significant stockholders, if necessary, to provide
sufficient working capital necessary to support and preserve the integrity of
the corporate entity. Although we have verbal assurances from Mr.
Letiziano that he will provide such interim working capital, there is no legal
obligation for either management or significant stockholders to provide
additional future funding. We may raise additional funds through
public offerings of equity, securities convertible into equity or debt, private
offerings of securities.
Concurrent
with our activities to acquire LPTV stations for stock, which commenced in the
first quarter of 2007, we intend to seek additional equity or debt
financing. To date, we have been able to raise funds in two funding
rounds through both debt and equity offerings. We anticipate that the
funds we secure from our next round of financing will enable us to purchase
additional LPTV stations, some with a cash consideration, and provide
additional working capital to enable us to possibly acquire some stations making
losses, purchase programming and initiate Triple Play Media
operations. Cash costs for this phase of our plan will include
approximately $25,000 related to the funding round plus up to $30 million to
support the acquisitions of more LPTV stations, plus up to $15 million to
support Triple Play. This phase of our plan will continue throughout
2008. Currently, we have specific plans to raise additional
financing; however, we do not have any specifically identified source(s) of such
potential financing.
We have
already begun to identify the LPTV stations we would like to acquire by visiting
the online site, www.LPTV.com, to
identify stations that are for sale. To date, we have not identified
any specific station that we plan to negotiate with but have visited
the website to determine what is available. Based upon our review of
the market, we believe that we will be able to take the following steps to
effectuate the acquisition of LPTV stations in the time periods set forth
below. However, the dates set forth below are only based upon
our limited research of the market and may not be effectuated in the
timely manner set forth below since our registration statement
has not been deemed effective and since we have not commenced
negotiations or due diligence on any station
We have
already commenced the first step in the acquisition process of reviewing those
markets of dominant influence (the ratings of TV households in each market.) and
will continue doing so. We expect the expenses for our review of the
markets to be limited to the time spent by Mr. Letiziano, our sole officer and
director. We anticipate that any additional expenses will be under
$1,000 can be paid from our current cash in hand.
Our
current monthly cash requirement budget of approximately $10,500 does not
include any post-acquisition costs of operating the LPTV stations. We
are unsure of the expenses to be required for operating the stations since we
have not identified any specific station, their current operating status and
expenditure levels. However, in the event that
the stations do not generate the anticipated revenues, we may be
unable to pay any shortfall from our current cash on hand. We may
have to rely on shareholder loans to cover such costs until the station
generates sufficient revenues or until we can obtain additional debt or equity
financing. The fees and expenses for the due diligence, negotiations
and expenses for the additional stations will be paid from current cash on hand,
revenues or stockholder loans.
There
will be no costs associated with Big Vision until services have been provided by
Big Vision at which time we will be generating revenues to cover these
costs. Until such time we are public, receive additional financing
and proceed with our business we have no other contractually
obligated expenses. We cannot assure investors that we will be able
to raise sufficient capital. In the absence of additional funding, we may not be
able to purchase some of the stations we have identified. Even
without significant new funding later this year or early 2007, we still
anticipate being able to acquire some profitable LPTV stations for
stock and consolidate both their revenues and earnings.
The
foregoing represents our best estimate of our cash needs based on current
planning and business conditions. The exact allocation, purposes and
timing of any monies raised in subsequent funding rounds may vary significantly
depending upon the exact amount of funds raised and status of the implementation
of our business plan when these funds are raised.
Apart
from building the board of directors, and employees of LPTV stations we acquire
as subsidiaries we do not expect any significant changes in the
number of employees.
(4)
Capital Resources and Liquidity
As of
December 31, 2007, we had approximately $42,000 in cash. Our monthly
cash requirements presently average $11,000 per month.
As
reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we are in the development
stage with no operations. Our ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and implement our
business plan. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going
concern. We have no plans to pay no salaries per month to our sole
officer and employee until we are properly funded. We intend to raise additional
capital to continue our operations although there is no assurance we will be
successful. Currently we have no material commitments to make capital
expenditures.
It is the
intent of management and significant stockholders, if necessary, to provide
sufficient working capital necessary to support and preserve the integrity of
the corporate entity. However, there is no legal obligation for
either management or significant stockholders to provide additional future
funding. Should this pledge fail to provide financing, we have not
identified any alternative sources. Consequently, there is
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our need
for capital may change dramatically as a result of any business acquisition or
combination transaction. There can be no assurance that we will
identify any such business, product, technology or company suitable for
acquisition in the future. Further, there can be no assurance that we
would be successful in consummating any acquisition on favorable terms or that
it will be able to profitably manage the business, product,
technology or company it acquires.
Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and
implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for us to continue as a
going concern. The Company is still in the process of developing and
implementing it’s business plan and raising additional capital. As
such, the Company is considered to be a development stage company.
(5)
Critical Accounting Policies
Our
financial statements and related public financial information are based on the
application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions,
judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles
that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts
reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information
contained in our external disclosures including information regarding
contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use if
estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are
consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ
materially from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates
made during the preparation of our financial statements.
Our
significant accounting policies are summarized in the accompanying financial
statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact
our financial condition and results of operations, our views certain of these
policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that
have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require
management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual
results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given
current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other
reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our
consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the
periods presented in this report.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
|
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an
evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined
under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2007. Based on this
evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting
them on a timely basis to material information relating to our Company required
to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange
Act.
MANAGEMENT’S
REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management of the Company is
responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over
financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange
Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is
designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board
of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published
financial statements in accordance with United State’s generally accepted
accounting principles (US GAAP), including those policies and procedures that:
(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of
the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only
in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company,
and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s
assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Management conducted an evaluation
of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the
framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s
assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over
financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment,
Management concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.
Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be
effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation and presentation.
This annual report does not include
an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm
regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s
report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual
Report.

Changes
in Internal Controls
|
There
were no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard to
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over
financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2007
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.

Biographical
Information

appointed as the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
officer and sole director as of July 8, 2005. Mr. Letiziano, age 61,
has over 40 years of experience in finance, business and sports and
entertainment. After serving his internship with Haskins & Sells,
CPA’s (currently Deliotte), Mr. Letiziano sat for his CPA Certificate in
Pennsylvania. In 1964, he also received his Registered Municipal
Accountant’s Certificate to practice in New York, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania. He was employed with Haskins and Sells from
1962-1969. Mr. Letiziano attended Pennsylvania State University,
where he majored in accounting and economics. From 1970-1972, he
co-owned an accounting practice in Reading, PA. From 1992 to the
present, Mr. Letiziano has been self-employed as an international
monetarist facilitating financial transactions for his clients. From
1988 to 1993, Mr. Letiziano was CEO of Ringside International Broadcasting
Corporation, (NASDAQ: RIBC). RIBC enjoyed over 4 years of success in
sports and entertainment TV programming and captured 98% of the TV markets; in
excess of 66 million TV households in the United States. RIBC boxing

produced over 150 major events worldwide.
Audit
Committee
We do not
have a standing audit committee of the Board of Directors. Management has
determined not to establish an audit committee at present because of our limited
resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an
audit committee or the expense of doing so. We do not have a
financial expert serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer
based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person
who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Item 401(e) of Regulation
S-B is beyond its limited financial resources and the financial skills of such
an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective
internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of
the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in its
financial statements at this stage of its development.
Significant
Employees
None.
Family
Relationships
No family
relationships exist among our directors or executive officers.
Code
of Ethics
We have
adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer. This Code of Ethics has previously been included as an
Exhibit to a prior filing.

The
Company has no other Executive Compensation issues which would require the
inclusion of other mandated table disclosures.
Mr.
Letiziano has agreed to defer payment of his salary for this period and,
therefore, we have accrued such compensation as “accrued officer compensation”
in the accompanying financial statements. Such accrued compensation
will be paid when the Company is able to do so. Mr. Letiziano’s
salary is determined by the Board of Directors of which Mr. Letiziano is the
sole member. In determining his salary, consideration was given to
(i) the financial resources of the Company; (ii) the number of hours each week
Mr. Letiziano devotes to the Company; (iii) the salaries of executive officers
of other companies in the similar industries; and (iv) the salaries of executive
officers of other companies in the developmental stage. There is no
formal or informal understanding regarding Mr. Letiziano’s salary which will be
determined in the future based upon the factors set forth above and based upon
our revenues.

We have
considered whether the provision of any non-audit services, currently or in the
future, is compatible with S. W. Hatfield, CPA maintaining its
independence and have determined that these services do not compromise their
independence.
Financial
Information System Design and Implementation: S. W. Hatfield, CPA did not charge
the Company any fees for financial information system design and implementation
fees.
The
Company has no formal audit committee. However, the entire Board of
Directors (Board) is the Company's defacto audit committee. In
discharging its oversight responsibility as to the audit process, the Board
obtained from the independent auditors a formal written statement describing all
relationships between the auditors and the Company that might bear on the
auditors' independence as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No.
1, "Independence Discussions
with Audit Committees." The Board discussed with the auditors
any relationships that may impact their objectivity and independence, including
fees for non-audit services, and satisfied itself as to the auditors'
independence. The Board also discussed with management, the internal auditors
and the independent auditors the quality and adequacy of the Company's internal
controls.
The
Company’s principal accountant, S. W. Hatfield, CPA, did not engage any other
persons or firms other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent
employees.

Report of Independent
Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm
Board of
Directors and Stockholders
Signet
International Holdings, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Signet International
Holdings, Inc. (a Delaware corporation and a development stage company) and
Subsidiary (a Florida corporation) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the
related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss,
consolidated changes in shareholders' deficit and consolidated statements of
cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the
period from October 17, 2003 (date of inception) through December 31, 2007,
respectively. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Signet
International Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and
the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows each
of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for the period from October
17, 2003 (date of inception) through December 31, 2007, respectively, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note C to the
financial statements, the Company has no viable operations or significant assets
and is dependent upon significant shareholders to provide sufficient working
capital to maintain the integrity of the corporate entity. These
circumstances create substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern and are discussed in Note C. The financial
statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
these uncertainties.

Signet
International Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary
(a
development stage company)
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
Note
A - Organization and Description of Business
Signet
International Holdings, Inc. was incorporated on February 2, 2005 in accordance
with the Laws of the State of Delaware as 51142, Inc.
On
September 8, 2005, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange
(Agreement) by and among Signet International Holdings, Inc. (Signet); Signet
Entertainment Corporation (SIG) and the shareholders of SIG (Shareholders)
(collectively SIG and the SIG shareholders shall be known as the “SIG Group”),
Signet acquired 100.0% of the then issued and outstanding preferred and common
stock of SIG for a total of 3,421,000 common shares and 5,000,000 preferred
shares of Signet’s stock issued to the SIG Group. Pursuant to the
agreement, SIG became a wholly owned subsidiary of Signet.
Signet
Entertainment Corporation was incorporated on October 17, 2003 in accordance
with the Laws of the State of Florida. SIG was formed to establish a
television network “The Gaming and Entertainment Network”.
The
Company is considered in the development stage and, as such, has generated no
significant operating revenues and has incurred cumulative operating losses of
approximately $1,231,000.
Note
B - Preparation of Financial Statements
The
acquisition of Signet Entertainment Corporation by Signet International
Holdings, Inc. effected a change in control of Signet International Holdings,
Inc. and is accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” whereby Signet
Entertainment Corporation is the accounting acquirer for financial statement
purposes. Accordingly, for all periods subsequent to the “reverse
merger” transaction, the financial statements of the Signet International
Holdings, Inc. will reflect the historical financial statements of Signet
Entertainment Corporation from it’s inception and the operations of Signet
International Holdings, Inc. subsequent to the September 8, 2005 transaction
date.
The
Company follows the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and has a year-end
of December 31.
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Management
further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting
practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control
and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal
accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded
transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions
are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial
statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations
and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being
presented.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements contain the accounts of Signet
International Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Signet
Entertainment Corporation. All significant intercompany transactions
have been eliminated. The consolidated entities are collectively
referred to as “Company”.
Note
C - Going Concern Uncertainty
The
Company is still in the process of developing and implementing it’s business
plan and raising additional capital. As such, the Company is
considered to be a development stage company.
The
Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to generate
sufficient cash flows from operations to support its daily operations as well as
provide sufficient resources to retire existing liabilities and obligations on a
timely basis.

(a

Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
December

Note
C - Going Concern Uncertainty - Continued
The
Company anticipates that future sales of equity securities to fully implement
it’s business plan or to raise working capital to support and preserve the
integrity of the corporate entity may be necessary. There is no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional funding through the
sales of additional equity securities or, that such funding, if available, will
be obtained on terms favorable to or affordable by the Company.
If no
additional capital is received to successfully implement the Company’s business
plan, the Company will be forced to rely on existing cash in the bank and upon
additional funds which may or may not be loaned by management and/or significant
stockholders to preserve the integrity of the corporate entity at this
time. In the event, the Company is unable to acquire sufficient
capital, the Company’s ongoing operations would be negatively
impacted.
It is the
intent of management and significant stockholders to provide sufficient working
capital necessary to support and preserve the integrity of the corporate
entity. However, no formal commitments or arrangements to advance or
loan funds to the Company or repay any such advances or loans
exist. There is no legal obligation for either management or
significant stockholders to provide additional future funding.
While the
Company is of the opinion that good faith estimates of the Company’s ability to
secure additional capital in the future to reach our goals have been made, there
is no guarantee that the Company will receive sufficient funding to sustain
operations or implement any future business plan steps.
Note
D - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
1. Cash and cash
equivalents
For
Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in
banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with
maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash
equivalents.
The
Company has adopted the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 98-5,
“Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities” whereby all organizational and
initial costs incurred with the incorporation and initial capitalization of the
Company were charged to operations as incurred.
3.
|
Research and
development expenses
|
Research
and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred.
The
Company does not utilize direct solicitation advertising. All other
advertising and marketing expenses are charged to operations as
incurred.
The
Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, the deferred tax
asset and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material to the
financial statements, are entirely the result of temporary
differences. Temporary differences represent differences in the
recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes,
primarily accumulated depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful
accounts and vacation accruals.

Income Taxes -
continued
|
As of
December 31, 2007 and 2006, the deferred tax asset related to the Company’s net
operating loss carryforward is fully reserved. Due to the provisions
of Internal Revenue Code Section 338, the Company may have no net operating loss
carryforwards available to offset financial statement or tax return taxable
income in future periods as a result of a change in control involving 50
percentage points or more of the issued and outstanding securities of the
Company.
6.
|
Earnings (loss) per
share
|
Basic
earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss)
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the respective period presented in our accompanying financial
statements.
Fully
diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per
share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of common
stock equivalents (primarily outstanding options and warrants).
Common
stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the
outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at
either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance,
whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered
dilutive based upon the Company’s net income (loss) position at the calculation
date.
At
December 31, 2007 and 2006, and subsequent thereto, the Company’s issued and
outstanding preferred stock is considered anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net
operating loss position.
Note
E - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes
payable, as applicable, approximates fair value due to the short term nature of
these items and/or the current interest rates payable in relation to current
market conditions.
Interest
rate risk is the risk that the Company’s earnings are subject to fluctuations in
interest rates on either investments or on debt and is fully dependent upon the
volatility of these rates. The Company does not use derivative
instruments to moderate its exposure to interest rate risk, if any.
Financial
risk is the risk that the Company’s earnings are subject to fluctuations in
interest rates or foreign exchange rates and are fully dependent upon the
volatility of these rates. The company does not use derivative
instruments to moderate its exposure to financial risk, if any.
Note
F - Broadcast and Intellectual Properties
On April
20, 2007, the Company entered into a new purchase agreement with Freehawk for
100% of the rights to 21 television series to be produced by Freehawk
exclusively for Signet. The total consideration paid by the Company
for these rights was 270,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock and
a $50,000 open account payable. Based on an independent third-party
appraisal, the Company valued this transaction at approximately
$2,870,625. The common stock was issued pursuant to an exemption from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
no underwriter was used in this transaction.

The moe.Republic”, by John E. Derhak. This full-length novel is in
the process of being published and is currently being sold in an abridged,
autographed limited edition through the website
www.moerepublic.org. Total consideration paid by the Company for
these rights was 113,662 shares of restricted, unregistered common stock and a
$25,000 promissory note. Based on an independent third-party
appraisal, the Company valued this transaction at approximately
$1,136,600. The common stock was issued pursuant to an exemption from

As of
December 31, 2007, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of
approximately $571,000 for Federal and approximately $466,000 for State income
tax purposes.. The amount and availability of any future net
operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations set forth by the
Internal Revenue Code. Factors such as the number of shares ultimately issued
within a three year look-back period; whether there is a deemed more than 50
percent change in control; the applicable long-term tax exempt bond rate;
continuity of historical business; and subsequent income of the Company all
enter into the annual computation of allowable annual utilization of the
carryforwards.
The
Company's income tax expense (benefit) for each of the years ended December 31,
2007 and 2006 and for the period from October 17, 2003 (date of inception)

I - Common Stock Transactions
On
October 17, 2003 and November 1, 2003, in connection with the incorporation and
formation of the Company, an aggregate of approximately 3,294,000 shares of
restricted, unregistered shares of common stock and were issued to various
founding individuals. This combined preferred stock and common stock
issuances were collectively valued at approximately $40,810, which approximated
the fair value of the time provided by the individuals and the related
out-of-pocket expenses.
On June
16, 2004 and December 3, 2004, the Company sold, in three separate transactions
to three unrelated individuals, an aggregate 70,000 shares of restricted,
unregistered common stock for $35,000 cash. These shares were sold
pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and no underwriter was used any of the three
transactions.
Between
July 20, 2005 and August 26, 2005, Signet Entertainment Corporation sold an
aggregate 57,000 shares of common stock to existing and new shareholders at a
price of $0.01 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $570. As
this selling price was substantially below the “fair value” of comparable
transactions, the Company recognized a charge to operations for consulting
expense equivalent to the difference between the established “fair value” of
$1.00 per share (as determined by the pricing in the September 2005 Private
Placement Memorandum) and the selling price of $0.01 per share.
On
September 9, 2005, the Company commenced the sale of common stock pursuant to a
Private Placement Memorandum in a self-underwritten offering. This
Memorandum is offering for sale to persons who qualify as accredited investors
and to a limited number of sophisticated investors, on a best efforts basis, up
to 2,000,000 of our common shares at $1.00 per share, for anticipated gross
proceeds of $2,000,000. The common shares will be offered through the
Company’s officers and directors on a best-efforts basis. The minimum
investment is $1,000, however, the Company might, at it’s sole discretion,
accept subscriptions for lesser amounts. Funds received from all
subscribers will be released to the Company upon acceptance of the subscriptions
by the Company’s management. Through December 31, 2006, the Company
has sold an aggregate 381,000 shares for gross proceeds of $381,000 under this
Memorandum.
On March
31, 2006, the Company repurchased 50,000 shares of common stock from the estate
of a deceased shareholder which purchased said shares for $50,000 cash pursuant
to the aforementioned September 2005 Private Placement Memorandum for $50,000
cash. In June 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors cancelled these
shares and returned them to unissued status.
On June
22, 2006, the Company issued 250,000 shares of unregistered, restricted common
stock, valued at $0.50 per share or $125,000, in payment of
consulting fees. As the agreed-upon value of the services
provided was less than the “fair value” of comparable transactions, the Company
has recognized an additional charge to Consulting Fees equivalent to the
difference between the established “fair value” of $1.00 per share (as
determined by the pricing in the September 2005 Private Placement Memorandum)
and the agreed-upon value of $0.50 per share in the corresponding line item in
the Company’s Statement of Operations.
