VALCOM, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
ValCom, Inc and its subsidiaries' (collectively the Company) businesses include television production for network and syndication programming, motion pictures, however, revenue is primarily generated through distribution, production and the TV network and live event broadcasting including real estate auctions. The Company's past and present clients include movie studios and television networks. In addition to the production business, the Company also has a library of television content for worldwide distribution and acquired a further library of film and television series with the acquisition of Faith TV (now renamed My Family TV).
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ValCom, Inc. and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Valencia Entertainment, Inc. (VEI), which was acquired in February 2001, and My Family TV, LLC (formerly known as Faith TV) which was acquired in December 2008. Investments in affiliated companies over which the Company has a significant influence or ownership of more than 20% but less than or equal to 50% are accounted for under the equity method. The Company has no equity affiliates as of June 30, 2011.
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
ASC820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", adopted January 1, 2008, defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for current receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments. Management concluded the carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available. The three levels are defined as follows:
7
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the Full-term of the financial instruments.
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Depreciation and Amortization
For financial and reporting purposes, the Company follows the policy of providing depreciation and amortization on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows:
Production Equipment
5 years
Office Furniture and Equipment
5 to 7 years
Leasehold Improvements
5 years
Autos and Trucks
5 years
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC740 "Accounting for Income Taxes". ASC 740 requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes and allows recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.
The Company adopted the accounting standard for uncertainty in income taxes which prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on a tax return (including a decision whether to file or not to file a return in a particular jurisdiction).
Shared Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC 718, "Share-Based Payment" and FASB ASC 505-50, "Equity-Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees."
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from the sales or licensing of films is recognized upon meeting all recognition requirements of Accounting Standard Codification 926, Entertainment Films (ASC 926) (formerly Statement of Position 00-2). These requirements are a.) persuasive evidence of a sale or licensing arrangement with a customer exists, b.) the film is complete and, in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery, c.) the license period of the arrangement has begun and the customer can begin its exploitation, exhibition, or sale, d.) the arrangement fee is fixed or determinable, and e) collection of the arrangement fee is reasonably assured. .
8
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into cash and are not subject to significant risk from fluctuations in interest rates. As a result, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent customer obligations due under contractual obligations where the conditions stated above in respect of revenue recognition have been fulfilled and where the customer has been invoiced for the amount due.
The Company evaluates accounts receivable where it believes that there may be a possibility that the license agreement concerned may be at risk of being cancelled in the future. In these cases, the Company uses its judgment, based on the available facts and circumstances, and records a specific reserve for that customer against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount that is expected to be collected. These specific reserves are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received that impacts the amount reserved.
If circumstances change (for example, the Company experiences higher than expected defaults or an unexpected material adverse change in a major customers ability to meet its financial obligation to the Company), estimates of the recoverability of amounts due to the Company could be reduced by a material amount. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2011.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in income. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.
In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. There was no impairment recorded at June 30, 2011.
Film Costs
Film costs are capitalized in accordance with ASC 926. Film costs represent capitalized costs for the production of films and other entertainment projects. These costs will be amortized when the films that the Company is producing meet all the requirements listed in ASC 926 and the Company is recognizing revenues for the Films.
Film costs are amortized in the same proportion that the current revenue bears to the estimated remaining unrecognized revenue as of the beginning of the current year. Revenue and cost forecasts are periodically reviewed by management and revised when warranted.
The carrying value of the film costs are periodically reviewed for impairment. If events or changes in circumstance indicate that the fair value of the capitalized costs on a specific film are less than their carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the unamortized costs exceed the projects fair value. No impairment charge was recognized for the year ended June 30, 2011.
9
Development Costs
Development costs are capitalized costs related to projects not in production. If the project is greenlit, the costs are reclassified as Film Costs. The Company evaluates on a monthly basis, all projects in development. If the Company decides to abandon any project, an expense for the costs incurred to date will be included in the Companys consolidated statements of operations. There were no development costs as of June 30, 2011.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

10
The Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary on May 31, 2011 named Five Platters, Inc. (Platters) in the state of Nevada. Platters mission is to digitize the audio and film library owned by the Company and to license the rights of the library content. In a financing agreement by and among the Company and Platters, and Tri-Partners, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, Tri-Partners agreed to provide a $600,000 loan to Platters to fund the facilitation of the transfer of the audio library to digital media along with other related uses, provided that the Company guarantees repayment of the loan proceeds. The loan bears interest of 0.46% per annum and is due on or before June 19, 2013. The loan amounts are to be provided in three $200,000 tranches; the first tranche occurring upon signature of the agreement with the second tranche to be provided September 11, 2011, and the final on January 1, 2012.
As of June 30, 2011, the balance owed all lenders was $1,323,890.
NOTE 6.
CONVERTIBLE NOTE
On January 6, 2009, we entered into a convertible note agreement. The terms of the note are as follows: principal amount $100,000; annual interest rate of 10%; maturity date of January 6, 2011. The note is convertible into common shares at a rate of $0.10. In connection with the note, we issued 1,000,000 warrants with an exercise price of $0.20. These warrants, which vested immediately, were valued using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. This Note was purchased by Greystone Partners on July 8, 2010 and was extended and due July 22, 2011. The rate was increased from 10% to 14%. The interest was prepaid in stock form on September 22, 2010.
NOTE 7.
INVENTORY- AUDIO AND FILM LIBRARY
An independent appraisal service and an independent certified public accountant have collectively prepared a valuation on the Companys audio and film library. The library is composed of a large collection of videos, movies, audio recordings, and TV shows. The appraisers considered multiple factors in determining fair market value of $23,206,942 with a net present value of $161,572,209. These factors used in the valuation process were as follows and have not been audited:
Cost - $18,275,150. Cost has been calculated by the appraiser and confirmed by an independent certified public accountant working with the appraiser. The audio and film library inventory was adjusted accordingly resulting in an increase in net income in the Statement of Operations.
Historical Earnings Earning To date, the appraiser has identified earnings of $14,865,000. This amount was used in the calculation of the future and current value of the library.
Network Value This amount is determined by the appraiser to be 40% of the potential annual income if 100% of the advertising time were sold at $1,000 per minute of commercials. The Network Value is calculated as $1,698,948 for the first year. This amount may fluctuate annually as revenues increase/decrease.
Competition A certain number of the total films and TV Shows are unique to this library. For this reason the appraiser took an approach to the valuation of determining a mean value for the titles based on what other film distributors and library owners are currently selling or renting these titles. From this calculation, the appraiser determined a value based on the potential sales of the programming, use of the programming on ValComs own network, and on advertising generated over the next ten years. Using a discount rate of 10% over ten years, a net present value of $161,572,209 was calculated.
11
In the opinion of the appraiser and staff, the values published in the appraisal are conservative and have the potential to increase as additional work is completed on the library and restoration of many of the unique and historical films continue. There are also additional audio tracks and films which have not been valued as of the appraisal date which may be added to the library and valued separately.
NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
No provision for Federal and state income taxes has been recorded as the Company has incurred net operating losses through June 30, 2011. At June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $21,991,285 of net operating loss carry-forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes available to offset future taxable income. Such carry-forwards commenced expiring beginning in 2011.
Deferred tax assets at June 30, 2011 consist primarily of the tax effect of the net operating loss carry-forwards, which amounted to approximately $7,115,059. Other deferred tax assets and liabilities are not significant. We
provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets at June 30, 2011 to reduce such deferred income tax assets to zero, as we believe that realization of such amounts is not considered more likely than not.
The following is a reconciliation of the provision for income taxes at the U.S. Federal income tax rate to the income taxes reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Operations:

NOTE 11. BANKRUPTCY FILING
On August 5, 2008 the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California entered an Order Confirming Second Amended Plan of Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Plan") of the Company. The Plan classifies claims and interest in various Classes according to their right to priority of payments as provided in the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C.{section} 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"). The Plan provides that upon payment of all obligations pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall be discharged of liability for payment of debts, claims and liabilities incurred before confirmation of the Plan, to the extent specified in {section}1141 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Plan provided for the treatment of each Class, and for the cash payments that each Class of creditors will receive (and for the existing equity interests and rights that equity security holders will retain under the Plan. The effective date of the Plan was August 15, 2008 (the "Effective Date"). The Company has been funding the Plan through cash on hand and accumulated by the Effective Date to pay off the allowed Priority Unsecured Tax claims.
On the Effective Date, unexpired leases and executory contracts were assumed as obligations of the reorganized Company. The Order of the Court approving the Plan constitutes an order approving the assumption of each lease and contract. Within 120 days of the entry of the order confirming the Plan, the Company filed a status report with the Court explaining what progress has been made toward consummation of the confirmed Plan. The status report was served on the United States Trustee, the twenty largest unsecured creditors, and those parties who have requested notice. Status reports are filed every 120 days and served on the same entities until the Plan is fully consummated.
All persons or entities holding preferred or common stock in the Company are referred to in the Plan as "Interest Holders". The pre-existing pre-petition equity ownership interests and rights of all Interest Holders will be left intact and unimpaired. Of the total amount of common shares issued, a majority of the common shares were issued to insiders of the Company. However, the Directors and President of the company elected to convert their debt of $1,670,000 to Preferred Convertible Stock rather than issue approximately 33,400,000 shares of common stock as stated in the Plan.

INTRODUCTION AND COMPANY UPDATE
ValCom is a fully integrated Entertainment Company that has been in business for over 25 years and has gone through its ups and downs. It looks like its turning the corner within the Broadcast Division by paying off its Television Network and has found a niche in the Live Events Television Production Division by successfully producing a hit show; Michel Legrand and Friends, which received great reviews and was purchased by one of the top Television Networks in the United States. The show will generate a minimum of $500,000 of revenue to the Company and it anticipates bringing millions over the next five years worldwide.
The Companys subsidiary, Valencia Entertainment entered into a distribution deal with Kultur International to handle the DVDs from the Michel Legrand Special to air on PBS. The deal is programmed to pay the Company an advance and a royalty of all sales in North America. Valencia Entertainment also finished the sound track of the Special which will be released this fall in stores and has made a deal with Crest Digital. On another note, Valencia Entertainment delivered the Michel Legrand Special foreign master version to DLT Entertainment, who has already started to pursue sales with interest from Japan, China, France, Brazil, United Kingdom and Germany. The show tested very well in choice markets in the United States and the network plans on rolling out throughout the country this fall.
As far as the Real Estate Auction, we have finally figured out how to successfully run the program after the previous attempts which were unsuccessful. In November 2010, the company entered into a 3 year agreement with United Country Auction Services to develop a series of televised real estate auctions. United Country Auctions Services is the nation's largest integrated real estate & auction company. The company has a national network of over 700 offices, 4000 agents nationwide, over 2.5 Billion in annual sales, and is rated #1 Global Real Estate Franchise by Dun & Bradstreet. The company will begin the auctions before the end of the year.
PLAN OF OPERATION
As of June 30, 2011, ValCom, Inc. (ValCom or the Company) operations were comprised of the following activities:
1. TV Stations and Broadcast Division
2. Film and Television Production
3. Live Theater Event Division
4. Real estate and other broadcasting Event Auctions
5. Audio library
Corporate offices are located at 2113A Indian Rocks Beach, Florida.
1. BROADCASTING UPDATE
Following the 100% acquisition of the Christian Television Network, Faith TV LLC on December 15 2008, ValCom began an immediate rebranding to My Family TV. The network which had been operating through 60 broadcast, IPTV and cable affiliates at the time of acquisition has now grown to over 80 affiliates. With a primary focus on family friendly programming, management has engaged a strategic plan of growth through quality programming, distribution through organic growth and acquisition leading to a strong foundation for sales. My Family TV is a strong family friendly network with a core established audience and broadcasts to over 30m households through its extensive affiliate network of full and part time affiliates. My Family TV is an emerging network created for American families.
16
With the acquisition of My Family TV, ValCom now has a library of over 1,000 films, over 200 episodic TV series and more than 500 individual TV one-off specials and documentary programs.
ValCom has made significant changes to My Family TV that has increased the overall value of the network. Some of these changes include: New programming blocks of health and lifestyle, classic television, comedies, childrens and primetime entertainment and over 80 movies per month; Increasing carriage to include major growth markets such as: New York, San Francisco, Boston, Charlotte, Phoenix, Tampa and Knoxville. The implementation of an aggressive effort to secure cable and broadcast coverage in additional major markets will lead to improved ratings and increased revenues.
In less than one year ValCom eliminated all debt from the acquisition and is operating My Family TV with almost no debt load. Short term plans include the acquisition and launching of new channels that will grow in value based on 4 factors: Programming, Distribution, Ad Sales and Low Operational Expenses. The company has positioned itself to be a U.S. market leader in live interactive televised auctions, traditional and innovative family programming, and sports, and will launch this successful formula to major international markets in 2012.
Through our joint venture with New Global Communications, Inc., we own a 45% equity interest in ValCom Broadcasting, LLC a New York limited liability company, which operates KVPS (Channel 8), an independent television broadcaster in the Palm Springs, California market. ValCom has not realized significant revenues from this joint venture to date.
My Family TV continues its rapid expansion. In the 2nd of 2011, the network started distributing programming to multiple markets including Miami, FL, Albany/Utica, NY, and Myrtle Beach/Florence, SC. ValCom also announced a joint venture with Chattanooga based Luken Communications related to the operations, programming, distribution, and marketing of the network.
My Family TV is part of a bundle of television networks originated and distributed by Luken from their state-of-the-art facility in Chattanooga. The venture allows ValCom and Luken to leverage multiple television networks when negotiating the content for My Family TV. The relationship has brought new programming to My Family TV including a morning talk-show; classic television programs like Highway to Heaven, Route 66, Lassie, I Spy, The Bill Cosby Show and The Rifleman; fresh crime dramas like Cold Squad, Da Vinci's Inquest; and the Merv Griffons Crosswords game-show. Negotiations are already underway to obtain additional television programs that are expected to premiere on My Family TV throughout 2011. The venture has reduced overall costs at My Family TV through economies of scale that exist when multiple television networks operate within the same facility. The relationship with Luken Communications als o creates additional distribution and sales opportunities for ValCom's content library.
My Family TV is also in active negotiations with 28 television stations and will be launching in New York, Boston, San Francisco, Knoxville, Virginia Beach, Hampton, VA, Bluefield, WV and the Tri-Cities, VA area in the 3rd Quarter of 2011.
A major revenue stream for ValCom is network television. The vision of the company is to follow the path of ABC Family; a network that was purchased for $1.6 Billion and was later sold for $5.1 Billion. The first network being built by ValCom is My Family TV, which was acquired by the company in 2008.

2. FILM AND TV PROGRAM PRODUCTION DIVISION / DISTRIBUTION UPDATE
ValComs business includes television production for network and syndication programming, motion pictures and real estate holdings. Revenue is primarily generated through the lease of the sound stages and production. Our past and present clients include Paramount Pictures, Don Belisarious Productions, Warner Brothers, Universal Studios, MGM, HBO, NBC, 20th Century Fox, Disney, CBS, Sony, Showtime, the USA Network, the Game Show Network, Endemol, BET Home Shopping Network and Sullivan Studios.
ValCom has a long history of TV and film production and continuously develops projects for productions and considers proposals for co-production. ValCom has developed and produced a number of live action series pilots and full length feature film projects such as PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) and the 40 episode TV series AJs Time Travelers. ValCom has been commissioned to produce shows such as Truster for Fox; it also produces development shows for itself for the purpose of pitching to networks such as the New York based sitcom Fuhgedabowit and Lets Do It Again featuring Frankie Avalon. With its integrated studio operation, studio equipment and post production facility, ValCom has the opportunity to co- produce by way of the provision of services with the opportunity to defer costs and also to provide executive producer services to assist with development, planning, financing and distribution.
On October 1, 2003 we formed New Zoo Revue, LLC pursuant to a joint venture agreement with O Atlas Enterprises, Inc. a California corporation. New Zoo Revue, LLC was formed for the development and production of New Zoo Revue a feature film and television series and marketing of existing episodes. The company did not proceed with the production of the new feature film or series but in 2004, it did complete a distribution agreement for the DVD with BCI Eclipse for 183 episodes of the New Zoo Revue library. ValCom has not realized significant revenues from animation to date but has just started selling to other broadcast networks.
In 2009, ValCom produced the documentary feature film `Michel Legrand is Music. The documentary paid tribute to Michel Legrands five-decade, multiple award-winning career composing many of the most memorable film and television scores and songs of all time. ValCom Inc. premiered the documentary in a limited week-long theatrical run in New York City on September 18, 2009 at the Coliseum Theater. In addition, the documentary premiered in Los Angeles on September 16, 2009 at the Laemmle Grand Cineplex 4. Michel Legrand Is Music honors the work of the three-time Academy Award-winning French music composer, arranger, conductor and pianist Michel Legrand. Legrand composed more than 200 film and television scores and numerous jazz, popular and classical musical albums. He won Academy Awards for Best Music, Original Song for The Windmills of Your Mind from The Thomas Crown Affair (1969), Best Music, Original Dramatic Score for Summer of 42 (1971) and Best Music, Original Song for Barbra Streisand Movie Yentl (1983). Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight narrates the documentary which was prized with special appearances from Barbra Streisand, Quincy Jones, Tony Bennett and Johnny Mathis.
To coincide with the Michel Legrand live event in Las Vegas in 2010, ValCom is planning a number of distribution opportunities including the distribution and syndication of programming based on the live event, music recordings, album and other related events.
Valencia Entertainment entered into a Distribution Agreement with DLT Entertainment to sell the Michel Legrand and Friends Special around the world. On May 17, 2010 the show was delivered to Public Broadcast Network, who bought the Project for the US rights for a $250K fee and $12.00 per DVD and $8.00 per CD sold over the next 26 months. The Show started airing in August 2010 and the Network likes what Valencia Entertainment has produced and delivered to them. We also have several other countries interested in purchasing the project.
ValCom, through Valencia Entertainment International, operates a complete distribution and syndication service to producers and thus acquired content for its networks at little or no cost with its ability to guarantee TV broadcast and provide a launch for further home entertainment distribution on DVD and on-demand channels through other relationships. ValCom also has the opportunity to co-produce film and TV programs by way of the provision of services with the opportunity to defer costs and also to provide executive producer services to assist with development, planning, financing and then be able to acquire distribution rights for these productions.

ValCom owns a substantial library of television content with over 6,000 titles and it also acquires third party film and TV programming which it distributes through Valencia Entertainment International.
Valencia Entertainment is on the cusp of generating millions of dollars of revenue for the company. ValCom has over 6,000 video and audio titles in its library. In 1st quarter 2011 an appraisal was conducted by DOS Broadcast and Appraisal Services to determine an accurate value of the content owned by the company. DOS has estimated that the value of the library exceeds $128 million. The library contains rare and unique video and audio content including 13 master recordings of Elvis Presley with The Platters; masters from Ike & Tina Turner before they were stars; and a very rare 3 Stooges film. The library also contains films starring the top names in Hollywood like Denzel Washington, Anthony Hopkins, Robert DiNiro, Jodi Foster, Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson.
In addition to utilizing the content to leverage the growth of My Family TV, the content can be licensed via various distribution channels including broadcast stations, cable networks, video on demand, and internet streaming. There is major revenue potential due to the overall expansion of new media and the growth of the international marketplace. For example, Netflix recently did a 5 year license of another companys library of 250 titles for $750 million. Valencia has started the process of licensing the content in the syndication marketplace and has already lined up buyers.
The Company has entered into several licensing deals for its content totaling $434,370.00 and has currently finalized four contracts and is negotiating two more which are expected to close at any time; all will be paid throughout the terms of the agreements.
3. LIVE THEATRE AND EVENT DIVISION UPDATE
ValCom has a live theatre division responsible for bringing live shows and events to fruition. In 2006, ValCom produced a theater production called Headlights and Tailpipes which was unveiled at the Las Vegas Stardust Hotel and ran until July 2006. Other events produced included the 2006 Superbowl pre-game Rap Bowl Event featuring Young Jeezy, Academy Award winner Ludacris, Juvenile and Juelz Santana.
ValCom, through its subsidiary, Valencia Entertainment, produced a live theatre event based on Michel Legrand and his music that occurred in March 2010 at the MGM Grands Garden Arena, Las Vegas and featured a line-up of major international recording stars. The event took place on March 26th and Michel Legrand conducted a 66-piece orchestra that included guests such as Quincy Jones, Sting, Dionne Warwick, Andy Williams, George Benson, Jon Voight, Patti Page, Steve Lawrence, Melissa Manchster, Neil Sedaka and Jerry Lewis and included a tribute piece by Ray Charles. The show paid musical tribute to some of Legrands Academy Award-winning MGM movies including Yentl, Thomas Crown Affair and Summer of 42. The superstar extravaganza was also captured on film for a made-for-TV-Special to air at a later date.
The Michel Legrand and Friends Special had a very successful turnout with over 3,000 attendees at the show, while the box office generated over $150,000 in Sales, of which approximately $87,000 belongs to the Company; topping it off with the sale to Public Broadcast Network, who aired the show in August. The Network paid the Company a $250,000 fee and a Backend participation of $12.00 for every DVD sold and $8.00 for every CD sold over the next 26 months. The Contract is for the United States only.
Valencia Entertainment has already begun discussions with other Broadcast Networks on new show ideas branching from its library. One show in particular is The Platters; the Company owns all of the masters from the late 1950s as well as other top musical giants and plans on structuring another show similar to the successful project, Michel Legrand and Friends. The Platters show would also be another TV Special Concert and sell through a DVD and CD program, similar to the Doo Wop Special Rhino Records put out; which has grossed over $40 Million US dollars to date.

4. REAL ESTATE AND OTHER BROADCAST EVENT AUCTIONS UPDATE
In 2009, ValCom pioneered the process of live event auctions covering a wide range of events for TV broadcast and live webcast. Combining the expertise in TV production, live event promotion and now as the owner of a broadcast TV network, the opportunity offers a synergistic approach to such events. In 2008 and 2009, ValCom produced a wide range live TV and webcast events including
1. The Hilton `Make a Wish Foundation broadcast live from the Hilton mansion in Beverly Hills in December 2008
2. The Universal Studios `Battlestar Galactica prop and memorabilia auction by live web-cast in 2009 over a number of days from the Pasadena Convention Centre
3. The Grammy Awards `Music Cares auction as part of the 2009 Grammy Awards
In June 2009, ValCom together with Florida Opportunities, Inc set up Sun Investments LLC, a 51% subsidiary of ValCom, Inc. to develop the business opportunity of live event and regular real estate auctions on broadcast TV. Sun Investments will acquire suitable properties and together with ValCom production studios. My Family TV, will produce live auction events. ValCom acquires additional TV carriage through the purchase of airtime on major networks and markets the events nationwide.
The first such event took place on June 2009 followed by an event in October 2009 with live broadcast from the ValCom studios media centre in Clearwater, Florida and broadcast live over 3 hours on My Family TV, the Ion Network with an auction of over 40 foreclosure properties acquired by Sun Investments. In November the next event was broadcasted over My Family TV and DSN (Direct Shopping Network).
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, we divested in Sun Investments, Inc., though ValCom will continue its operations as it relates to real estate auctions. In November 2010, the company entered into a 3 year agreement with United Country Auction Services to develop a series of televised real estate auctions. United Country Auctions Services is the nation's largest integrated real estate & auction company. The company has a national network of over 700 offices, 4000 agents nationwide, over $2.5 Billion in annual sales, and is rated #1 Global Real Estate Franchise by Dun & Bradstreet. We anticipate making the auctions more exciting with the offering of financing as well as auctioning off down payments rather than the sales price. These are variants that will make the process more enticing and will create more interaction. At this time, ValCom has put the auctions on hold in order for the Company to focus on the Libr ary and monetizing its assets, but plans on commencing once again by the end of the year.
5. AUDIO AND FILM LIBRARY UPDATE
For over 25 years, the Company has accumulated a substantial library of content that will be monetized through worldwide distribution. The audio and film library is comprised of over 6,000 titles that include films, television programs, and music. This content library has been recently appraised by an independent auditor that placed a minimum value of the library with a value of over $128 million. Years ago, the company had a distribution arm that was extremely successful in selling content. The company has rebuilt its distribution arm and has implemented an aggressive sales and marketing effort to sell broadcast rights to the content in 2011 to numerous media outlets domestically and internationally.
The Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary on May 31, 2011 named Five Platters, Inc. (Platters) in the state of Nevada. Platters mission is to digitize the audio and film library owned by the Company and to license the rights of the library content. In a financing agreement by and among the Company and Platters, and Tri-Partners, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, Tri-Partners agreed to provide a $600,000 loan to Platters to fund the facilitation of the transfer of the audio library to digital media along with other related uses, provided that the Company guarantees repayment of the loan proceeds. The loan bears interest of 0.46% per annum and is due on or before June 19, 2013. The loan amounts are to be provided in three $200,000 tranches; the first tranche occurring upon signature of the agreement with the second tranche to be provided September 11, 2011, and the final on January 1, 2012.
20
In conjunction with the loan from Tri-Partners, a commission agreement was also executed on June 10, 2011 with Tri-Partners. Platters agreed to provide a 25% commission on licensing rights net revenue of the film and audio library. In addition, if the Library is sold in its entirety, either as the individual entity, Five Platters, Inc., or included as a part of the sale of ValCom, Inc., Tri-Partners, LLC will receive a commission of 7.5% of either the net sale price or the recognized value as part of the sale of ValCom, Inc.

FUTURE OUTLOOK COMPANY UPDATE
The Companys subsidiary, Valencia Entertainment entered into a distribution deal with Kultur International to handle the DVDs from the Michel Legrand Special to air on PBS. The deal is programmed to pay the Company an advance and a royalty of all sales in North America. Valencia Entertainment also finished the sound track of the Special which will be released this fall in stores and has made a deal with Crest Digital. On another note, Valencia Entertainment delivered the Michel Legrand Special foreign master version to DLT Entertainment, who has already started to pursue sales with interest from Japan, China, France, Brazil, United Kingdom and Germany. The show tested very well in choice markets in the United States and the network plans on rolling out throughout the country this fall.
ValCom, through its subsidiary, Valencia Entertainment completed the production of a live theatre event based on Michel Legrand and his music in March 2010 at the MGM Grands Garden Arena, Las Vegas and featured a line-up of major international recording stars. The event took place on March 26th and Michel Legrand conducted a 66-piece orchestra which included guests such as Quincy Jones, Dionne Warwick, Sting, Andy Williams, George Benson, Jon Voight, Patti Page, Steve Lawrence, Melissa Manchester, Neil Sedaka and Jerry Lewis.

The superstar extravaganza was also captured on film for a made-for-TV-Special. Valencia Entertainment, through DLT Entertainment sold the Michel Legrand Special to Public Broadcasting Network for a License Fee of $250,000 and $12 per DVD and $8 per CD sold over the next 26 months.
21
Valencia Entertainment has already begun discussions with other Broadcast Networks on new show ideas branching from its library. One show in particular is The Platters; the Company owns all of the masters from the late 1950s as well as other top musical giants and plans on structuring another show similar to the successful project, Michel Legrand and Friends. The Platters show aired in the fall of 2010, which is also another TV Special Concert and sold through a DVD and CD program, similar to the Doo Wop Special Rhino Records put out; which has grossed over $40 Million US dollars to date.
For over 25 years, ValCom has accumulated a substantial library of content that will be monetized through worldwide distribution. The library is comprised of over 6,000 titles that include films, television programs, and music.

The Company has entered into several licensing deals for its content totaling $434,370.00 and has currently finalized four contracts and is negotiating two more which are expected to close at any time; all will be paid throughout the terms of the agreements.
The growth of ValCom and My Family TV is attracting the interest of significant investment groups. At this moment My Family TV has no debt and is operating near breakeven. Growing the network can be done through organic growth or through an acquisition or merger. The company has been approached by a number of large entities that have communicated that they are extremely interested in either a merger or acquisition scenario. Company management is evaluating these opportunities on a case by case basis.
My Family TV continues its rapid expansion. In the 2nd quarter of 2011, the network started distributing programming to multiple markets including Miami, Albany, and Myrtle Beach/Florence, SC. ValCom also announced a joint venture with Chattanooga based Luken Communications related to the operations, programming, distribution and marketing of the network.
22
My Family TV is part of a bundle of television networks originated and distributed by Luken from their state-of-the-art facility in Chattanooga. The venture allows ValCom and Luken to leverage multiple television networks when negotiating the content for My Family TV. The relationship has brought new programming to My Family TV including a morning talk-show; classic television programs like Highway to Heaven, Route 66, Lassie, I Spy, The Bill Cosby Show and The Rifleman; fresh crime dramas like Cold Squad, Da Vinci's Inquest; and the Merv Griffons Crosswords game-show. Negotiations are already underway to obtain additional television programs that are expected to premiere on My Family TV throughout 2011. The venture has reduced overall costs at My Family TV through economies of scale that exist when multiple television networks oper ate within the same facility. The relationship with Luken Communications also creates additional distribution and sales opportunities for ValCom's content library.
My Family TV is also in active negotiations with 28 television stations and will be launching in New York, Boston, San Francisco, Knoxville, Virginia Beach, Hampton, VA, Bluefield, WV and the Tri-Cities, VA area in the 3rd Quarter 2011.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Companys consolidated financial statements have been prepared, assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred net income of $15,050,150 due to the inventory adjustment and cash flows used in operations of $3,145,298 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and had retained earnings of $2,302,005 at June 30, 2011. Notwithstanding the inventory adjustment, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
Cash totaled $332,460 on June 30, 2011 compared to $18,318 as of June 30, 2010. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, net cash used in operating activities totaled $3,145,298 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,210,892 for the comparable three month period in 2010. There was no cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $59,140 provided by investing activities for the comparable three month period in 2010. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $3,459,440 due to an increase in additional paid in capital compared to $1,082,940 for the comparable three month period in 2010.
The above cash flow activities yielded a net cash increase of $314,142 during the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a decrease of $68,812 during the comparable prior year period.
Net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) was a deficit of $374,723 as of June 30, 2011. The Company will need to raise funds through various financings to maintain its operations until such time as cash generated by operations is sufficient to meet its operating and capital requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
WE WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO ACHIEVE OUR CURRENT BUSINESS STRATEGY AND OUR INABILITY TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING COULD CAUSE US TO CEASE OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.
We will need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or sale of equity to achieve our current business strategy. Such financing may not be available when needed. Even if such financing is available, it may be on terms that are materially adverse to your interests with respect to dilution of book value, dividend preferences, liquidation preferences, or other terms. Our capital requirements to implement our business strategy will be significant. However, at this time, we cannot determine the amount of additional funding necessary to implement such plan. We anticipate requiring additional funds in order to fully implement our business plan to significantly expand our operations. We may not be able to obtain financing if and when it is needed on terms we deem acceptable. Our inability to obtain financing would have a material negative effect on our ability to implement our acquisition strategy, and as a result, could require us to diminish or suspend our acquisition strategy.
If we are unable to obtain financing on reasonable terms, we could be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate certain product and service development programs. In addition, such inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms could have a material negative effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition to such extent that we are forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease operations, any of which could put your investment dollars at significant risk.
Except as set forth above, there have been no material changes from the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.
