IDW Media Holdings, Inc. (“IDWMH”) together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a diversified media company with operations in publishing and television entertainment. The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” are used in this report to refer collectively to the parent company and the subsidiaries through which various businesses are conducted.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of CTM Media Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted consistent with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. OperatingInterim results for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscalfull year ending July 31, 2011.

For further information, please refer to theannual consolidated financial statements and footnotesnotes thereto also included in the Company’sour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended JulyOctober 31, 2010, as filed with2021. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the U.S. Securitiesaccounts of the Company and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on July 31.October 31st. Each reference below to a fiscal year refers to the fiscal year ending in the calendar year indicated (e.g., fiscal 20112021 refers to the fiscal year ending Julyended October 31, 2011)2021).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the World. The Company is actively monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic, the restrictive measures imposed to combat its spread and their potential impact on each of our operating segments. While we believe that through the first two quarters of fiscal 2022, there has been significant improvement due to global and domestic vaccination efforts, there is uncertainty around the duration and ongoing impact, if any, of COVID-19 related to both known and unknown risks, including future quarantines, closures and other restrictions resulting from the outbreak, and our operations and our customers and partners may continue to be impacted. The Company has considered information available to it as of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements and is not aware of any specific events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates or judgements, or an adjustment to the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. The accounting estimates and other matters assessed include, but were not limited to, goodwill and other long-lived assets, and revenue recognition. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information becomes available. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Segment Information

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 280 (“ASC 280”), Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the financial performance and the results of operations of the segments prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company (see Note 5).

Our principal business consists of the following principal businesses:segments:

CTM Media Groupi.

IDWP Publishing (“CTM”IDWP”), the Company’s brochure distribution creates comic books, graphic novels, digital content and games through its imprints IDW, Top Shelf Productions and Artist’s Editions; and

ii.

IDW Entertainment (“IDWE”) acts as a production company and other advertising-based product initiatives focusedstudio that develops, produces and distributes content based on small to medium sized businesses;IDWP’s original IP for a variety of formats including film and television.

The Company’s majority interest in Idea and Design Works, LLC (“IDW”)

Prior to February 15, 2021, we also owned CTM Media Group (CTM), which is a comic book and graphic novel publisher that creates and licenses intellectual property.

The Company was formerly a subsidiary of IDT Corporation (“IDT Corporation” or “IDT”) formed on May 8, 2009.company that develops and distributes print and digital-based advertising and information advertising for tourist destinations in targeted tourist markets in 32 states / provinces in the US and Canada. On September 14, 2009, the Company was spun-off by IDT to its stockholders and became an independent public company (the “Spin-Off”). IDT transferred its ownership in all of the entities that became the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries prior to the Spin-Off. The entities that became direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company are: CTM; Beltway Acquisition Corporation; IDT Local Media, Inc. and IDT Internet Mobile Group, Inc. (“IIMG”). IIMG owns approximately 77% of the equity interests in IDW. All indebtedness owed by any of these entities to IDT Corporation or its affiliates was converted into a capital contribution.  All references to the Company, its assets and results of operations for periods prior to the actual formation of the Company, refer to the subsidiaries of IDT that are now owned by the Company, and their consolidated assets and results of operations.

The Company’s authorized capital stock, upon the Spin-Off, consisted of (a) 35 million shares of Class A common stock, (b) 65 million shares of Class B common stock, (c)February 15, million shares of Class C common stock, and (d) 10 million shares of Preferred Stock, each par value $0.01 per share. IDT Corporation completed the Spin-Off through a pro rata distribution of the Company’s common stock to IDT Corporation’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2009 (the “record date”). As a result of the Spin-Off, each of IDT Corporation’s stockholders received: (i) one share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every three shares of IDT Corporation’s common stock held on the record date; (ii) one share of the Company’s Class B common stock for every three shares of IDT Corporation’s Class B common stock held on the record date; (iii) one share of the Company’s Class C common stock for every three shares of the IDT Corporation’s Class A common stock held on the record date; and (iv) cash in lieu of a fractional share of all classes of the Company’s common stock. On September 14, 2009, as a result of the Spin-Off, the Company had 1.3 million shares of Class A common stock, 5.1 million shares of Class B common stock and 1.1 million shares of Class C common stock issued and outstanding.

On December 20, 2010 the Company’s authorized shares of: (i) Class A common stock was reduced from 35,000,000 shares to 6,000,000 shares; (ii) Class B common stock was reduced from 65,000,000 shares to 12,000,000 shares; (iii) Class C common stock was reduced from 15,000,000 shares to 2,500,000 shares; and (iv) Preferred Stock was reduced from 10,000,000 shares to 500,000 shares, each par value $0.01 per share.  The amendment was authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors on October 19, 2010, and approved on November 12, 2010 by the Written Consent of the holders of shares representing approximately 50.1%, 58%, and 100% of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock, respectively and approximately 84% of the combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding capital stock.

Note 2—Discontinued Operations
Sale of assets of WMET Radio

On May 5, 2010, the Company2021, we consummated the sale of substantially allCTM to an assignee of Howard Jonas, the Company’s Chairman in exchange for (i) the cancelation of $3.75 million of indebtedness we owed to our Chairman’s designee, (ii) a contingent payment of up to $3.25 million based upon a recovery of quarterly revenues of CTM to 90% of its fiscal 2019 levels during the 18-month period following the sale, and (iii) a contingent payment if CTM is sold within 36 months of the assets used in the WMET radio station business (othersale for more than working capital). WMET 1160 AM is a radio station serving the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.  The sale price for the WMET assets$4.5 million. As of July 31, 2020, CTM was $4 million in a combination of cash and a promissory note of the buyer that is secured by the assets sold.  $1.3 million of the purchase price was paid in cash at the closing and the remainder is owed pursuant to a two-year promissory note, which is extendable in part to three years at the option of the buyer. The sale met the criteria to be reported as a discontinued operation and CTM’s operations have since been included in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 and accordingly, WMET’s results are classifiedcondensed consolidated financial statements as part of discontinued operations during(see Note 14).

Trade accounts receivables are recorded at the fiscal year 2010.

Summary Financial Data of Discontinued Operations

Revenuesinvoiced amount and loss (in thousands) before income taxes of WMET, which are generally unsecured as they are uncollateralized. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce receivables to their estimated net realizable value. Judgement is exercised in establishing allowances and estimates are based on the tenants’ payment history and liquidity. Any amounts that were previously recognized as revenue and subsequently determined to be uncollectible are charged to bad debt expense included in discontinued operations, were as follows:

The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0 as of April 30, 20112022 and JulyOctober 31, 2010.2021.

Television Costs

We expense television production, participation and residual costs over the applicable product life cycle based upon the ratio of the current period’s revenues to the estimated remaining total revenues (Ultimate Revenues) for each production. If our estimate of Ultimate Revenues decreases, amortization of film and television costs may be accelerated. Conversely, if our estimate of Ultimate Revenues increases, film and television cost amortization may be slowed. For television series, Ultimate Revenues include revenues that are expected to be earned within ten years from delivery of the first episode, or if still in production, five years from delivery of the most recent episode. IDWE capitalized cost of production and amortized it over the applicable product life cycle based upon the ratio of the current period’s revenues to the estimated remaining total Ultimate Revenues for each production. Advertising, marketing, and general and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

Every quarter, the Company prepares analyses to support its content amortization expense. Critical assumptions used in determining content amortization include: (i) determining the grouping of contents (ii) the application of an ultimate revenue forecast model based on the contracts of televisions, (iii) gathering the schedules of delivered television episodes from the relative customers, (iv) calculating current period amortization, (v) assessing the accuracy of the Company’s forecasts. The Company continually reviews its estimates and contracts and revises its assumptions if necessary. Any material adjustments from the Company’s review of the amortization are applied prospectively in the period of the change for assets.


IDW MEDIA HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

With respect to television series or other television productions intended for broadcast, the most sensitive factors affecting estimates of Ultimate Revenues are program ratings and the strength of the advertising market. Television development costs for projects that have been abandoned or have not been set for production within three years are generally written off in the relevant period.

Television costs are stated at the lower of cost less accumulated amortization or fair value. The Company evaluates impairment by the fair value of television costs at the individual level by considering expected future revenue generation, when an event or change in circumstances indicates a change in the expected revenue of the television costs or that the fair value of a film or film group may be less than unamortized costs.

IDWE regularly enters into agreements for the production of its television shows. The agreements provide for the rights and obligations related to the agreement including timing, delivery and payments. IDWE capitalizes the resulting production costs under the agreements in production cost inventory as payments are made or when the products or services are delivered. Amortization of television costs during the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0 and $1,385,0000, respectively. Amortization of television costs during the six months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 were $999,000 and $5,341,0000, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities

The Company, through its subsidiary IDWE has arrangements with seven special-purpose entities (“SPEs”) Some SPEs were formed for the sole purpose of providing production services of a television pilot and series in Canada, and other SPEs were formed for production and writing purposes. The SPEs are independently owned companies that are effectively controlled by IDWE and are parties to the related bank production financing arrangements. The Company has determined that SPEs are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the SPEs activities and was the obligor on the SPEs’ debt. All financial activity of the SPEs has been included in IDWE’s financial statements, which are part of these consolidated financial statements. IDWE is not obligated to provide any support to the VIE’s and therefore, potential losses are not foreseen. The SPEs have finished all of the productions and these shows have been delivered. The outstanding loans have been paid off. The carrying amounts and classification of the VIEs’ assets are presented below:

Revenue Recognition

The Company applies the five-step approach as described in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which consists of the following: (i) identifying the contract with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognizing revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

IDWP generates revenue primarily from the sale and licensing of comic books, graphic novels, digital content, and games through IDWP’s imprints IDW Publishing, IDW Games, Top Shelf, and Artist’s Editions. Revenue from the direct sale of comic books, graphic novels and games is recognized, net of an allowance for estimated sales returns, at the time of shipment of its graphic novels, comic books and games by IDWP’s distributors to its customers. Licensing revenues are recognized upon execution of the agreement for such rights, and other creative revenues are recognized upon completion of services rendered on a contractual basis.

IDWE generates revenue primarily from the licensing and distribution of content across various platforms and formats to audiences globally including television series and films. IDWE’s revenue is recognized when evidence of a sale or licensing arrangement exists, the product is complete, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery, the license period has begun, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.


IDW MEDIA HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

IDWE enters into production agreements which provide for the rights and obligations related to the agreement including timing, delivery and payments. In certain productions in which IDWE is the distributor and IDWE has the obligation to pay artist, director and writer guilds for residuals for the creative writers of content. In addition, IDWE has the right to receive participation rights recoupment based on viewership of the cumulative production. The Company is unable to make an estimate as the recoupment is based on future viewership and therefore revenue will be recognized at a future date once the amount is known.

IDWE’s production activities included some of those provided by Canadian SPEs, and some of those productions qualify for tax credits in Canada. These credits are recorded as reductions in production cost when the SPEs becomes entitled to the Canadian tax credits. The Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) has completed the audit on these productions and the related tax refunds are no longer estimates. There are possible additional tax credits the Company may be eligible to receive, however due to the uncertainty of the receipt, the Company has not accrued for such credits.

The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. A receivable is recorded when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the satisfaction of performance obligations, the Company records a contract liability on the balance sheets within deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company’s reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. The most common types of intersegment transactions include IDWE obtaining rights to produce television series based on content created by IDWP. All intersegment transactions are recorded into intercompany receivables or payables and therefore no revenue or inventory eliminations are required.

Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists

IDWP offers its book market distributors, a right of return with no expiration date in accordance with general industry practices. These distributors then offer this same right of return to their book market retail customers. Sales returns allowances represent a reserve for IDWP products that may be returned due to dating, competition or other marketing matters, or certain destruction in the field. Sales returns are generally estimated and recorded based on historical sales and returns experience and current trends that are expected to continue. As of April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the Company’s estimated returns were $116,000 and $127,000, respectively.

Direct Cost of Revenues

Direct cost of revenues excludes depreciation and non-production cost amortization expense. Direct cost of revenues for IDWP consists primarily of printing expenses and costs of artist and writers. Direct cost of revenues for IDWE consists primarily of the amortization of production costs that were capitalized during the production of the television episodes, accrued third party participation, and distribution fees directly related to revenue.

Deferred Revenue

The Company records deferred revenue upon invoicing for contracted commitments for products and services. Revenue is recognized on the date such product or service is provided or delivered in accordance with the contract.

Concentration Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, and trade accounts receivable. The Company holds cash and cash equivalents at major financial institutions, which often exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (“FDIC”) insurance limits. Historically, the Company has not experienced any losses due to such concentration of credit risk.

IDWP has two significant customers Penguin Random House Publisher Services (“PRHPS”) and Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc. (“Diamond”), that pose a concentration risk.

Revenues from PRHPS, IDWP’s non-direct market distributor, represented 40.5% and 23.1% of the total condensed consolidated revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 28.0% and 25.4% of the total condensed consolidated revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The receivable balances from PRHPS represented 45.4% and 52.0% of the total condensed consolidated receivables at April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively. On June 1, 2022, PRHPS replaced Diamond as IDWP’s distributor to the direct market.

Revenues from Diamond, IDWP’s direct market distributor, represented 38.5% and 25.7% of the total condensed consolidated revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and 23.0% and 26.5% of the total condensed consolidated revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The receivable balances from Diamond represented 28.5% and 20.0% of the total condensed consolidated receivables at April 30, 2022 and October 31, 2021, respectively.

IDWE has two significant customers, Netflix and NBC Universal/SyFy, that pose a concentration risk.

Revenues from Netflix, a leading streaming video subscription service, represented 0.0% and 0.0% of condensed consolidated revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 23.5% and 0.0% of the total condensed consolidated revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Discontinued Operations

CTM met the criteria for discontinued operations and has been presented as such in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In accordance with ASU 2014-08, “Reporting of Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” a disposal is categorized as a discontinued operation if the disposal group is a component of an entity or group of components that meets the held for sale criteria, is disposed of by sale, or is disposed of other than by sale, and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.

During the period in which the discontinued operation was classified as held for sale, the net loss was reclassified as a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Assets and liabilities are also separately reclassified in the balance sheet for all periods presented, prior to the sale. CTM’s assets, liabilities, and cash flows are no longer reflected on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods following the CTM Sale Date. Cash flows from a discontinued operation and the continuing business are presented together without separate identification within cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. CTM’s depreciation, amortization, capital expenditures and significant noncash operating and investing activities for the discontinued operation are presented separately.

Reclassification of prior year presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have not resulted in impacts to net loss. Stock options have been included with stock-based compensation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Revision of previously issued consolidated financial statements (in thousands)

During the quarter ended April 30, 2022, the Company identified errors that caused an understatement of previously reported current liabilities and accumulated deficit. Specifically, the error related to the lack of accrual for certain actor residuals related to Wynonna Earp incurred in 2016 and 2017. The correction of these errors increased accrued expenses and accumulated deficit each by $589 as of October 31, 2021. This error had no impact on net income or net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended October 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In March 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-02, Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials. ASU 2019-02 aligns the accounting for production costs of episodic television series with the accounting for production costs of films. It also requires an entity to test a film or license agreement within the scope of Subtopic 920-350 for impairment at the film group level, when the film or license agreement is predominantly monetized with other films and/or license agreements. The Company adopted this ASU on November 1, 2020 and applied its provisions prospectively. In connection with this adoption the Company has evaluated this guidance and determined that were impairments (see Note 3—11) from substantively abandoned television costs which materially impacted the consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2021. These costs were recorded in direct cost of revenues.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The purpose of Update No. 2019-12 is to continue the FASB’s Simplification Initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in Update No. 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions related to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation, the requirement to recognize or derecognize deferred tax liabilities related to equity method investments that are also foreign subsidiaries, and the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period. The Company adopted the ASU on November 1, 2021, and adoption did not materially affect our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), that changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For receivables, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to current practice, except the losses will be recognized as allowances instead of reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. In addition, an entity will have to disclose significantly more information about allowances, credit quality indicators and past due securities. The new guidance becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, though early adoption is permitted. The new provisions will be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company will adopt the new standard on November 1, 2023. The Company is evaluating the impact that the new standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements. 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating the Step 2 impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The new guidance requires an entity to compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The new guidance becomes effective for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, though early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this guideline prospectively for the fiscal year beginning November 1, 2023. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this new accounting guidance will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2—Earnings Per Share

Basic (loss) earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income (loss) attributable to all classes of common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings(loss earnings) per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings(loss) income per share except that the number of shares is increased to include non-vested restricted stockadditional shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive shares been issued, and reduced by the number of shares the Company could have repurchased with the proceeds from issuance of potentially dilutive shares using the treasury stock method, unless the effect of such increase iswould be anti-dilutive. In calculatingThe Company excluded 1,166,803 and 46,999, shares of unvested restricted Class B common stock, options to purchase 972,626 and 302,737 shares of Class B common stock, and warrants to purchase 187,579 and 187,579 shares of Class B common stock from the weighted average shares usedcalculation of diluted loss per share for calculatingthe three and six months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”), which ispurchase, terminate or extend for one or more years. These options are included in the ASC Topic 820 (Fair Value Measurementslease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosuresliabilities from operating leases are recognized at the commencement date based on the amountpresent value of remaining lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s secured incremental borrowing rates or implicit rates, when readily determinable. Short-term leases, which have an initial term of 12 months or less, are not recorded on the balance sheet.

The Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined. Therefore, we use a discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate, which is determined using the Company’s interest rate on its line of credit.

Revenues. Revenues increased by $64,000 in the three months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in direct-to-consumer revenue of $384,000 related to Sonic the Hedgehog 30th Anniversary, a decrease in sales returns and discounts on book sales of $210,000, and an increase in non-direct market publishing revenue of $108,000 driven by strong They Called Us Enemy sales, partially offset by a decrease in direct market publishing revenue of $275,000 due to fewer titles being released during the period, a decrease in games revenue of $114,000, a decrease in digital revenue of $110,000 due to an overall decrease in sales across all platforms, and a decrease in other revenue categories of $139,000.

Revenues increased by $1,947,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in games revenue of $2,004,000 driven by the fulfillment of the direct-to-consumer games campaign for Batman Adventures, an increase in other publishing revenue of $462,000, a decrease in sales returns and discounts on book sales of $300,000, and an increase in non-direct market publishing revenue of 294,000, partially offset by a decrease in direct market publishing revenue of $796,000 due to fewer titles being released during the period, a decrease in digital sales of $285,000, and a decrease in licensing revenue of $32,000. Sales returns continue to improve compared to prior year due to targeted incentives with accounts to reduce return rates, localization of inventory management at Barnes & Noble, and Covid-related pressures in fiscal 2021. Digital sales are expected to remain below prior year as Covid-related restrictions end and people spend less time-consuming digital media. Direct market sales will likely remain lower for the year compared to prior year due to the release of multiple Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin titles in fiscal 2021. 

Effective March 2023, our licenses for the Transformers and GI Joe titles will be terminated. While the cancellation of the licenses for Transformers and GI Joe are anticipated to decrease revenues by approximately $1.2 million in fiscal year 2023, IDWP plans to mitigate the loss of revenue by enhancing its other key licensed brands. Additionally, we expect revenues from IDW Originals to begin to materialize in July 2022 with an estimated five new IDW original titles spanning fiscal 2022 and a planned output of doubling quantities each progressing fiscal year. We expect those efforts to offset any material impact on our gross margin from the loss of the licensed titles.

During calendar 2021, we began to winddown IDW Games and, going forward, IDW Games is only backfilling already developed games. The decision to shut down games was due to its lack of profitability, despite outliers like Batman Adventures, noted above.

Direct cost of revenues. IDWP’s direct cost of revenues decreased by $183,000 in the three months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in printing expenses and creative costs for IDW Games of $219,000 and a net decrease in other direct costs such as costs of artists and writers of $83,000, offset by an increase in publishing printing costs of $119,000. IDWP’s direct cost of revenues increased by $358,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended April 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in printing expenses and creative costs for IDW Games of $564,000 and an increase in publishing printing costs of $287,000, offset by a decrease in royalty expenses of $239,000, a decrease in publishing creative costs of $173,000, and a decrease in digital and licensing costs of $81,000. Although costs were recognized for fulfillment of the Batman Adventures game in the current year, future games costs will only be recognized with individual customer orders. Royalty expense as a percentage of sales is dependent on product and title mix as different revenue streams and titles have different royalty rates. 

Gross Margin. IDWP’s gross margin for the three months ended April 30, 2022 increased to 48.0% from 44.3% in the three months ended April 30, 2021. Gross margin for the six months ended April 30, 2022 increased to 49.5% from 44.1% in the six months ended April 30, 2021. These increases are principally due to the recognition of revenue for the fulfillment of the direct-to-consumer games campaign for Batman Adventures and a decrease in royalty expenses as a percentage of revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative. IDWP’s selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $35,000 during the three months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended April 30, 2021. The decrease was driven by decreases in salary and benefits of $190,000 and overhead allocation of $70,000, partially offset by increases in consulting of $74,000, software costs of $133,000, and other net changes of $18,000. Consulting expenses of $70,000 were recorded as administrative expense in the three months ended April 30, 2022. These expenses were recorded as salary and benefits in the three months ended April 30, 2021. Additionally, a refund receivable for workers compensation insurance of $79,000 was recorded in salary and benefits in the three months ended April 30, 2022. Administration costs in the current fiscal year include costs related to the recently launched website of $122,000.

IDWP’s selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $398,000 during the six months ended April 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended April 30, 2021. The increase was driven by increases in consulting of $156,000, software costs of $142,000, severance of $40,000, and shipping and direct-to-consumer costs of $241,000, offset by decreases in salary and benefits of $174,000, and other net changes of $7,000. Expense categories include the various changes and differences described above. The overall increase from prior fiscal year relates to Batman Adventures fulfillment costs and costs related to the recently launched website.

As a percentage of IDWP’s revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses in the three months ended April 30, 2022, were 50.9% compared to 52.0% in the three months ended April 30, 2021, and 46.5% in the six months ended April 30, 2022, compared to 50.8% in the six months ended April 30, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2010.States. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Our critical accounting policies include those related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives andgoodwill, valuation of long-lived assets including intangible assets with finite useful lives.lives and ultimate revenues for television costs. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For additional discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsSee Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual2021 Form 10-K.

Revenues. The decrease in consolidated revenues in the three months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 was primarily due to a decline in CTM’s revenues which were partially offset by an increase in IDW’s revenues.  CTM’s revenues during the three months ended April 30, 2011 decreased when compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 due to decreases in distribution revenues and printing revenues, which business we exited in the US and converted into a commission based print referral model in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. CTM’s revenues decreased for the nine month period ended April 30, 2011 principally due to the decrease in print revenues. The increase in IDW’s revenues was primarily due to a net increase in publishing revenues, digital publishing revenues, and royalty income.

Direct Cost of Revenues. Consolidated direct cost of revenues increased during the nine month period ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010. This was a result of an increase in direct cost of revenues at our IDW segment which was partially offset by a decrease in direct cost of revenues at our CTM segment. The decrease in direct cost of revenues at our CTM segment for the nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 was directly attributable to the corresponding decrease in its revenues, principally print revenue related. The increase in IDW’s direct cost of revenues during the nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 was principally as a result the corresponding increase in its related revenues. Overall consolidated direct cost of revenues declined during the three month period ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 primarily due to a decreases in direct cost of revenues at our CTM and IDW segments. Overall gross margin increased to 49.3% and 52.8% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 respectively, from 47.2% and 50.6% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2010 respectively. This increase was a result of an increase in overall gross margins at our CTM and IDW segments
Selling, General and Administrative. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 was primarily due to an increase in the selling, general and administrative expenses of CTM which were partially offset by a decline in selling, general and administrative expenses of IDW. CTM’s selling, general and administrative expenses increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 due to an increase in payroll costs, distribution stand location rents, advertising and professional fees. IDW’s selling, general and administrative expenses declined marginally due to a decline in administrative and occupancy costs. Total selling, general and administrative expenses associated with operating as a publicly traded company were $102,000 and $450,000 for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011.
As a percentage of total revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 53.7% in the three months ended April 30, 2011 from 53.4% in the similar period in fiscal 2010 and increased to 48.7% for the nine months ended April 30, 2011 from 48.4% in the similar period in fiscal 2010.
On October 14, 2009, our Board of Directors granted our Chairman and founder, Howard S. Jonas, 1.8 million restricted shares of our Class B common stock with a value of $1.25 million on the date of grant in lieu of a cash base salary for the five year period from October 14, 2009 through October 14, 2014. The restricted shares will vest in equal thirds on each of October 14, 2011, October 14, 2012 and October 14, 2013. Unvested shares would be forfeited if we terminate Mr. Jonas’ employment other than under circumstances where the accelerated vesting applies. The shares are subject to adjustments or acceleration based on certain corporate transactions, changes in capitalization, or termination, death or disability of Mr. Jonas. If Mr. Jonas is terminated by us for cause, a pro rata portion of the shares would vest. This arrangement does not impact Mr. Jonas’ cash compensation from the date of the Spin-Off through the pay period including the grant date. Total unrecognized compensation cost on the grant date was $1.25 million. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the vesting period from October 14, 2009 through October 14, 2014.  The related stock-based compensation related to this grant was $113,000 and $339,000 for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011, respectively.
Bad Debt Expense. The decrease in bad debt expense in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 was due primarily to a decrease in bad debt expense at our CTM segment.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense decreased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 due to decreases in state and local and foreign income tax expense, which was partially offset by an increase in US Alternative Minimum Tax expense. State and local income tax expense decreased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 due to the utilization of Net Operating Losses (NOLs) that were not available in the prior periods and the release of accrued tax liability due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. Our foreign income tax expense results from income generated by our foreign subsidiaries that cannot be offset against losses of our other subsidiaries.
We and IDT entered into a Tax Separation Agreement, dated as of September 14, 2009, to provide for certain tax matters including the assignment of responsibility for the preparation and filing of tax returns, the payment of and indemnification for taxes, entitlement to tax refunds and the prosecution and defense of any tax controversies. Pursuant to this agreement, IDT must indemnify us from all liability for taxes of ours and our subsidiaries for periods ending on or before September 14, 2009, and we must indemnify IDT from all liability for taxes of ours and our subsidiaries accruing after September 14, 2009. Also, for periods ending on or before September 14, 2009, IDT shall have the right to control the conduct of any audit, examination or other proceeding brought by a taxing authority. We shall have the right to participate jointly in any proceeding that may affect our tax liability unless IDT has indemnified us. Finally, we and our subsidiaries agreed not to carry back any net operating losses, capital losses or credits for any taxable period ending after September 14, 2009 to a taxable period ending on or before September 14, 2009 unless required by applicable law, in which case any refund of taxes attributable to such carry back shall be for the account of IDT.

Income (loss) attributable to non controlling interests. On November 5, 2009, we purchased an additional 23.335% non-controlling interest in IDW for a purchase price of $0.4 million in cash. As a result of the transaction, we own a 76.665% interest in IDW.

Revenues. The decrease in CTM's revenues in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 was primarily due to decreases in distribution revenues and printing revenues. Distribution revenues declined principally due to our US operations. Printing revenues declined due to our exit from the printing business in the US and conversion into a commission based print referral model during the third quarter of fiscal 2010.

Direct Cost of Revenues. Direct cost of revenues consists primarily of distribution and fulfillment payroll, warehouse and vehicle distribution expenses and print expenses. The direct cost of revenues decreased in the three months and nine months ended April 30, 2011 compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010. The decline is primarily on account of decreases in direct cost of printing revenues associated with our exit in the US and conversion of our printing business to a commission based model during the third quarter of fiscal 2010.  These decreases were partially offset by increases in direct costs of Right Card™ and publishing revenues.
CTM’s gross margin percentage increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 to 57.8% and 63.1%, respectively, compared to 57.7% and 60.5% in the similar periods in fiscal 2010. Gross Margins increased as a result of significant decreases in our direct cost of sales compared to declines in related revenues and the exiting of our unprofitable printing business in the third quarter of fiscal 2010.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and related benefits, facilities costs and insurance. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 as compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 primarily due to marginal increases in advertising costs, offsite staff training costs, and facilities rent costs. Total selling, general and administrative expenses for these costs associated with operating as a publicly traded company were $102,000 and $450,000 for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011. As a percentage of CTM’s aggregate revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 70.7% and 63.9% in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 from 60.7% and 54.9% in the similar periods in fiscal 2010.

Revenues. IDW’s revenues increased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 as compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010. The increase in IDW’s revenues as compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010 was primarily due increases in publishing revenues and digital publishing revenues which were partially offset by decreases in creative services revenue and licensing revenues.  Publishing revenues increased owing to better titles offered, change in product mix, and achievement of “Premier Publisher Status” in the market. Digital publishing revenues continued to increase due to the greater application of digital equipment leading to an increase in digital publishing revenues. Decreases in Creative Services Revenue and Licensing Revenues were on account of certain special titles and contracts in the prior year which were not present in the comparable periods of fiscal 2011.
In an effort to increase availability of versions of its content at retail outlets, IDW has entered into a number of digital distribution agreements during the period, and IDW’s publications are currently available for purchase via mobile devices, primarily iPhones/iPod Touch/iPad. IDW titles are also available direct-to-desktop via several websites and are available on Sony’s PSP and PSP Go.
Direct Cost of Revenues. Direct cost of revenues consists primarily of printing expenses and costs of artists and writers. Direct cost of revenues in the three months ended April 30, 2011 as compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 slightly decreased as a result of decrease in cost of merchandise sold, writers’ and artists’ fees, which were partially offset by an increase in royalty expenses and printing costs. The increase in direct cost of revenues in the nine months ended April 30, 2011 as compared to the similar period in fiscal 2010 was principally attributable to the increase in revenues.
IDW’s aggregate gross margin increased in the three month period to 38.9% from 32.0% and increased to 40.1% from 35.6% in the nine  month period ended April 30, 2011. The increase in the gross margins was primarily attributable to increased publishing revenues and lower print costs .
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 decreased as compared to the similar periods in fiscal 2010. The decrease in Selling, general and administrative expenses was principally on account of a decrease in personnel costs which were partially offset by an increase in marketing costs. As a percentage of IDW’s aggregate revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in the three and nine months ended April 30, 2011 to 33.3% and 30.0%, respectively, from 42.9% and 38.5% in the similar periods in fiscal 2010, as revenues increased  while selling, general and administrative expenses declined.

Operating Activities. Our cash flow from operations varies from quarter to quarter and from year to year, depending on our operating results and the timing of operating cash receipts and payments, specifically trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable. Cash flows provided by operating activities based on these factors were $846,000 and $1,870,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Investing Activities. Our capital expenditures were $260,000 and $320,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During the nine months ended 2011 we also received $300,000 payments on notes receivable related to sale of WMET during fiscal 2010. During the nine months ended April 30, 2010 we paid $414,000 towards acquiring additional interests in IDW. We currently anticipate that total capital expenditures for all of our divisions in fiscal 2011 will be approximately $300,000. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with our cash, cash equivalents and short term investments on hand.

Financing Activities. During the nine months ended April 30, 2011, we did not receive any financing from IDT Corporation. During the periods presented though the September 14, 2009 Spin-Off, IDT Corporation provided us with the required liquidity to fund our working capital requirements and investments for some of our businesses. We used any excess cash provided by our operations to repay IDT. In the three months ended October 31, 2009, IDT Corporation provided cash to us of $2,400,000. In September 2009, the amount due to IDT Corporation of $25.3 million was converted into a capital contribution.
During the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, we distributed cash to the non-controlling shareholders of IDW in the amount of $17,000 and $435,000, respectively. We also paid dividends of $1,498,000 and $2,082,000 during the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
We repaid capital lease obligations of $205,000 and $186,000 in each of the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

CHANGES IN TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
Gross trade

Trade accounts receivable decreased to $3,998,000approximately $4,758,000 at April 30, 20112022, compared to $4,274,000$5,431,000 at JulyOctober 31, 2010.2021 principally due to changes in the accruals and collection of IDWE revenue, as well as the timing of receipts of payments of other receivable balances. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross trade accounts receivable marginally decreased to 17.7%was 0% at April 30, 2011 compared2022 and at October 31, 2021, reflecting our collectible receivable experience.

Off- Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements,” as defined in relevant SEC regulations that are reasonably likely to 18.2% at July 31, 2010.have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Other Sources and Uses of Resources

On August 6, 2021, IDWMH closed a registered public offering of Class B common stock and EF Hutton, as representative of the Underwriters exercised the overallotment option included as part of the offering in full. The Company sold an aggregate of 2,875,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock for gross consideration of $10,350,000 less Underwriters commissions of $724,500 and Underwriters expenses of $75,000.

The Company is using the net proceeds we received from the offering principally for the development of original IP and the purchase of associated publishing, media, and merchandise rights to be used across multiple platforms (e.g., print, television, new media) as well as supplemental IP acquisition and marketing spend for these newly created IP franchises, and additionally for technology investment for our website, applications, data and business intelligence; talent investment as we look to expand our kids, middle grade, young adult, and family genres, and to further diversify into animation. The Company also seeks to pursue potential acqui-hire and/or bolt-on mergers and acquisition opportunities, should such opportunities arise.

We do not have any agreements at this time to potentially acquire other entities or businesses. The foregoing represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds of this offering. However, the nature, amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. As a result, our management has and will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering. We may find it necessary or advisable to use the net proceeds from this offering for other purposes, and we will have broad discretion in the application of net proceeds from this offering. To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from this offering are not immediately used for the above purposes, we intend to whereinvest our net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits or debt instruments.


Where appropriate, makewe evaluate strategic investments and acquisitions to complement, expand, and/or enter into new businesses. In considering acquisitions and investments, we search for opportunities to profitably grow our existing businesses, to add qualitatively to the range of businesses in our portfolio and to achieve operational synergies. Historically, such acquisitions have not exceeded $500,000, with the average acquisition being less than $100,000 If we were to pursue an acquisition in excess of $500,000 we would likely need to secure financing arrangements. At this time, we cannot guarantee that we will be presented with acquisition opportunities that meet our return on investmentreturn-on-investment criteria, or that our efforts to make acquisitions that meet our criteria will be successful.


The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative financial impact on our business with regard to (a) the temporary closure of IDWP’s comic book distributor due to COVID-19 disruptions, and (b) production delays of IDWE’s television show Wynonna Earp. Its production schedule had been delayed which was a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic that had affected virtually the entire filmed entertainment industry. This production delay had negatively impacted the delivery, which in turn pushed out our cash receipts.

In addition,the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 we willpaid “pull down” costs pursuant to a previously announced, multi-year agreement with Cineflix related to international sales of Wynonna Earp. Specifically, under this agreement, IDWE purchased the distribution rights to seasons one and two of Wynonna Earp from the current licensor (Netflix) and had agreed to transfer those rights to Cineflix.  Cineflix is now the international distributor of all four seasons of Wynonna Earp.  Due to changes in competition as well as the COVID-19 pandemic, the Cineflix deal did not contribute revenue and operating cash flow in fiscal year 2021 at the levels originally anticipated at the inception of the deal.

Dividends

In light of the current growth initiatives of the Company, particularly the television property development of IDWE, the Board of Directors determined to continue the suspension of the payment of cash dividends.  Projects that have already been approved and commenced are placing demands on the Company’s resources, and management and the Board determined that it was in the best interests of the stockholders to utilize approximately $2,000,000 annuallyavailable cash resources for investment in these promising and exciting growth opportunities.  This position may continue depending on the timing of projects, the cash generation of the Company’s operations and any financing that the Company may consummate.  Decisions as to pay the regular quarterlypayment of dividends in future periods will depend on the amountfinancial position, results of $0.06 per share, subject to confirmation by our management that there is sufficient surplus as of the proposed future payment datesoperations, prospects and other circumstances existingcurrent and projected competing demands for cash resources at the relevant times.time.  The Company continues its position of prudent and conservative cash management and is committed to using all of its resources to maximize shareholder value, balancing short, medium and long-term interests.


Historically, we satisfied our cash requirements primarily through cash provided by CTM’s operating activities and prior to our separation from IDT, funding from IDT Corporation. The conversion of our balance due to IDT Corporation into a capital contribution in September 2009 significantly improved our working capital balance. We do not currently have any material debt obligations. With the exit of certain lines of businesses within CTM, we expect that our operations in fiscal 2011 and the balance of cash, cash equivalents and short term investment that we held as of April 30, 2011, will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements, capital lease obligations, make limited acquisitions and investments, pay the currently announced and any future declared dividends and fund any potential operating cash flow deficits within any of our segments for at least the next twelve months. In addition, we anticipate that our expected cash balances, as well as cash flows from our operations, will be sufficient to meet our long-term liquidity needs. The foregoing is based on a number of assumptions, including that we will collect our receivables, effectively manage our working capital requirements, and maintain our revenue levels and liquidity. Predicting these matters is particularly difficult in the current worldwide economic situation and overall decline in consumer demand. Failure to generate sufficient revenues and operating income could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
Revenues from our international operations represented 7.8% and 7.5% of our consolidated revenues for the nine months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. A significant portion of these revenues is in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily Canadian dollars. Our foreign currency exchange risk is somewhat mitigated by our ability to offset the majority of these non-U.S. Dollar-denominated revenues with operating expenses that are paid in the same currencies. While the impact from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates affects our revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, the net amount of our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate changes at the end of each reporting period is generally not material.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements,” as defined in relevant SEC regulations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. We have reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that no new standards were issued this fiscal quarter that applied to the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”), which is included in the ASC Topic 820 (Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures on the amount and reason for transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements.  ASU 2010-06 also requires disclosure of activities, including purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements within the Level 3 fair value measurements and clarifies existing disclosure requirements on levels of disaggregation and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques.  Except for otherwise provided, ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements” (“ASU 2010-09”), which is included in ASC Topic 855 (Subsequent Events).  ASU 2010-09 clarifies that an SEC filer is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued.  ASU 2010-09 was effective upon the issuance of the final update and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

There is a foreign currency exchange risk associated with IDWE’s arrangements with special-purpose entities, formed for the sole purpose of providing production services in Canada, as the value of assets denominated in CAD will fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates, which will affect our production costs.
