Description of Business

 

Goliath Film and Media Holdings (“Goliath” or the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Goliath Film and Media International, intends to develop and license for distribution, domestically and internationally, quality digital video content with an emphasis on “niche” markets of the feature film and television content segments of the entertainment industry, such as, without limitation, education, faith-based, horror and socially responsible minority content.

 

In qualified cases Goliath will develop screenplays that will be outsourced to an independent entity for production, but will be licensed for distribution through the Company. Goliath plans to distribute domestically and internationally, through a wide distribution network which includes major international theatrical exhibitors, and other distributors and television networks. We plan to utilize corporate sponsorships as a means of reducing the costs of advertising and marketing in distribution. Further, we may augment our marketing efforts with a limited and strategically focused advertising campaign in traditional “print” media with press releases targeted specifically toward standard entertainment industry trade journals, publications and websites on an “as needed” basis.

 

Goliath’s revenue model includes receiving revenue from distribution fees. A limited number of its digital video properties include projects developed by Goliath and produced by an independent third party production entity.

 

The company presently has acquired the distribution rights to the following motion pictures: Seducing Spirits, The Perfect Argument, Marina Murders, Film Struggle, Divorce in America, A Wonderful Summer, The Truth About Layla, Living with Cancer and The Biggest Fan. Under the distribution agreements, Goliath will receive 30% of the gross revenues for each picture it distributes. In general, the Company's distribution contracts cover both domestic and international licensing agreements; however, for the picture The Biggest Fan, the Company obtained limited distribution rights.

 

On July 29, 2012, the Company acquired a 30% exclusive interest for three years of a documentary on the career of, former National Basketball Association star, A.C. Green.

 

We distribute motion pictures, educational videos, and other digital video products. We plan to distribute digital video content to television stations and networks and to private groups such as religious congregations, and schools. We do not intend to engage in theatrical releases of motion pictures, due to the high upfront costs of advertising and marketing theatrically. Also, theatrical releases of motion picture have historically represented only 18% of domestic revenues for the industry (13% internationally) and are projected to decrease in the future. We intend to emphasize niche markets, commencing with faith-based, educational, responsible minority content, and low budget horror movies.

 

We have also acquired distribution rights to 1,500 educational videos (primarily English, ESL and mathematics) produced by KLCS, a public television station based in Los Angeles, in cooperation with the Los Angeles Unified School District. . Goliath has held preliminary discussions for international distribution of these videos.

 

The following is a breakdown of the average revenue generated by films in both domestic and foreign markets:

 

  Domestic Foreign
Theatrical 18% 13%
Video 30% 18%
Cable 9% 0%
TV Network 5% 7%
Total 62% 38%
