("Prima" or "the Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on March 22, 1989. In February 1996 Prima was acquired by Diva Entertainment, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Diva Florida") which was then a wholly-owned subsidiary of J.R. Consulting, Inc., a Nevada corporation. In April 1999 Diva Florida was acquired by Diva Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware Corporation ("Diva Delaware") and Diva Florida became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Diva Delaware. On May 27, 2004 Diva Florida declared a dividend to its sole stockholder, Diva Delaware, of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Prima that were then held by Diva Florida. Thereafter, on the same date, Diva Delaware declared a dividend of ninety percent of the Prima stock held by it to the common stockholders of Diva Delaware on a pro-rata basis, and also declared a dividend of the remaining ten percent of the Prima stock held by it to the preferred stockholders of Diva Delaware on a pro-rata basis. Successful operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among others, all the problems, expenses, delays and other risks inherent in developing and expanding the Company's client base, actual and potential competition by entities with greater financial resources, experience and market presence than the Company. Further risks and uncertainties relate to the ability of the Company to generate sufficient revenue and obtain financing and additional equity. Losses from operations over the past several years have adversely affected the Company's liquidity. The Company also plans to continue to expand its customer base and reduce operating expenses. Although there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful, the Company believes that future operations will provide sufficient liquidity to fund current operations. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company's management believes that all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2005 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 have been included and that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes of the Company on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 3. USES OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Untied 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 net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the credit-worthiness of its customers, as well as general economic conditions. Consequently, an adverse change in those conditions could affect the Company's estimate. 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS DUE TO OFFICER The amounts due to an officer of the Company represent advances made by the officer. The advances are secured by a lien on all assets of the Company and are evidenced by a series of promissory notes which bear interest at 3% per annum. The loans are due July 3, 2007. DUE TO RELATED PARTY The amounts due to a related party represent net advances made to the Company. The advances are secured by a lien on all assets of the Company and are evidenced by a series of promissory notes which are due on demand. 5. GOING CONCERN As shown in the accompanying financial statements, as of September 30, 2005, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $505,606 and its total liabilities exceeded its total assets by $897,913. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue existence as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Overview We are in the business of representing talent, including professional fashion models, commercial actors and theatrical actors. We have operated as a Los Angeles based talent agency since 1989. Since 1998, we have been affiliated with Q Management, Inc., a New York-based agency which operated a business similar to ours, albeit on a larger scale. More information on Q Management and us can be found at their website, www.qmodels.com. We do not have operations in any other location. Our principal business is to represent and market talent and to book engagements for such talent with client companies which require their services. While the market for talent is very large, the business of talent agencies is highly competitive and tends to be dominated by certain very large national agencies. Our business is also driven by the overall demand in the marketplace for talent, which tends to fluctuate based on the economy and overall world events and affairs. While there exist opportunities to expand the business by increasing our base of talent, such increases are constrained by our lack of capital. Our business attracts new talent largely by word of mouth and reputation and we do not have the resources to advertise or engage in significant marketing activities. Our industry has established certain standards, which all agencies generally follow. Our principal business is booking the talent we represent for jobs with client companies. Talent is either booked directly with a client or we book talent through another agency. For work booked directly with the client we generally earn a commission of approximately 33-40% based on the total compensation paid to the talent. Under this structure, we retain approximately 20% of the total gross amount paid to the talent and receive payment in an amount equal to approximately 20% of such gross amount directly paid by the client. We only book as revenues the net amount which we receive on account of our fees. Our talent can also be booked through another agency. When our talent is booked through other agencies, the two agencies enter into a commission-sharing agreement where we generally receive approximately 5-10% of the gross amount paid to the talent. Where the talent booking is covered by the Screen Actors' Guild, we generally receive a fee of approximately 10% of the gross amount paid to the talent. Results of Operations Comparison of First Fiscal Quarter of 2006 and 2005 The following table summarizes the results of our operations during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and provides information regarding the dollar and percentage increase or (decrease) from the first quarter of 2006 to the first quarter of 2005.
Percentage Increase Increase Line Item 9/30/05 9/30/04 (Decrease) (Decrease) ---------- ------- ------- ---------- ------- Revenues 81,299 89,004 (7,705) (9%) Net Income (Loss) (31,567) 11,698 (43,265) (370%) Operating Expenses 112,866 76,066 36,800 48%) Earnings (Loss) per common share $ (0.24) $ 0.09 ($ 0.33) (367%)
For the three months ended September 30, 2005, we had revenues of $81,299 compared to revenues of $89,004 during the three months ended September 30, 2004. This $7,705 or 9% decrease in revenues is primarily attributable to a decrease in talent bookings during the quarter. We incurred a net loss of $31,567 for the first quarter of 2006 as compared to a net income of $11,698 for the first quarter of 2005. The $43,265 decrease in net income during the three month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period of last year is primarily attributable to increased professional fees incurred in connection with the Company's Form 10SB filing with the SEC and matters related thereto. Our operating expenses during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 were $112,866 compared to $76,066 during the same period of 2005. Again, this increase is primarily attributable to increased professional fees incurred in connection with the Company's Form 10SB filing with the SEC and matters related thereto. Loss per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $ 0.24 as compared to a profit of $ 0.09 for the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease in profit per common share of $0.33 or 367% is attributable to the factors described above. Liquidity and Capital Resources General As of September 30, 2005, we had $35,503 in cash and a working capital deficit of $505,606 We used $2,941 in operating activities for the three month period ended September 30, 2005. Historically, we have depended on loans from our principal shareholders and their affiliated companies (such as Q Management, Inc.) to provide us with working capital as required. While we do not maintain any available lines of credit or other commitments of any kind from any financial institutions or third parties, Q Management, Inc. does maintain a working capital facility and from time to time utilizes that facility for our operations. Neither Q Management nor our stockholders are obligated to make any loans or advances to us and there can be no assurance that Q Management or our stockholders will continue making loans or advances to us in the future. As of September 30, 2005, we owed approximately $796,693 in the aggregate to our stockholders and other related parties. The shareholder loans are booked as long-term liabilities and the other related party loans are booked as current liabilities which are payable on demand. To fully implement our business and strategic plans, we will require the availability of additional working capital, which we may seek to raise through offerings of securities, loans from banks or other financial institutions or through additional loans from our stockholders and Q Management or other sources. We have no funding commitments from any third parties. Additional financing may not be available when needed or on the terms acceptable to us. Unavailability of financing may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate certain plans. Cash Flow Analysis For the three months ended September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004, our operating activities used $2,941 and generated $4,441 in cash, respectively. This change in cash flow generated from operations is primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts payable which is only partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable. For the three months ended September 30, 2005 our financing activities provided $20,207 in cash and for the three months ended September 30, 2004 our financing activities used $3,396 of cash, respectively. Critical Accounting Policies The Securities and Exchange Commission issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, "Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies" suggesting that companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In Financial Reporting Release No. 60, the Securities and Exchange Commission has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The nature of our business generally does not call for the preparation or use of estimates. As such, no specific Critical Accounting Policies have been identified. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities. Risk Factors Affecting Our Business There are several material risks associated with Prima. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, which constitute all of the material risks relating to Prima. If any of the following risks are realized, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed and the value of our stock could go down. This means you could lose all or a part of your investment. FINANCIAL RISKS We have limited cash and if we are unable to raise more money we will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate our aspects of our business plan. As of September 30, 2005, we had limited cash available to fund our operations. The amounts and timing of our expenditures will depend primarily on our ability to raise additional capital. We may seek to satisfy our future funding requirements through new offerings of securities or from other sources, including loans from our controlling stockholders and their affiliates. Additional financing may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. We have no current commitment for additional financing. Unavailability of financing may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our business plan. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, your ownership interest would be diluted. We have a history of losses or minimal profitability. We have incurred substantial accumulated deficits during the time we have operated the business ($3,973,277 as of September 30, 2005) and achieved net income of only $33,346 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and net income of $30,800 in the fiscal year ended June 30 2004. There can be no assurance that we will be profitable in the future. CONCENTRATED CONTROL RISKS Fountainhead Investments, Inc., which is controlled by Mr. Zachariou, currently owns 75.16% of the outstanding common stock and he is our only officer and director. He therefore has the power to make all major decisions regarding our affairs, including decisions regarding whether or not to issue stock and for what consideration, whether or not to sell all or substantially all of our assets and for what consideration and whether or not to authorize more stock for issuance or otherwise amend our charter or bylaws. He is in a position to elect all of our directors and to dictate all of our policies. We do not currently have an employment agreement with Mr. Zachariou or key man insurance on the life of Mr. Zachariou. Our future success will depend in significant part on our ability to retain and hire key management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS We face intense competition and may not be able to compete successfully. Competition is intense in our business. Many of our competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater financial and marketing resources, larger customer bases, longer operating histories, greater name recognition and more established relationships than we do. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that the competitive pressures we will face will not harm our business. Our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about the continuing operation of our business. MARKET RISKS There is currently no market in our stock, and as a thinly-capitalized company, there is no guarantee that there will ever be any efficient market in our stock. If a market in our stock is ever developed, our stock price may become highly volatile and the stock may be considered a penny stock. The likely market for our stock would be the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the "OTC Bulletin Board") or the "pink sheets". Many of the securities traded in these marketplaces are subject to significant volatility. ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Within 90 days of the filing of this Form 10-QSB, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including Peter Zachariou, our sole officer and director, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-QSB, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Zachariou concluded that as of September 30, 2005, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation performed that occurred during the fiscal year covered by this report that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
