NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2006
 
 
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION

MPLC, Inc. (f/k/a the Millbrook Press Inc.) (the "Company" or "MPLC") is the successor company to a corporation that emerged from reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended July 31, 2006. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1994. The Company intends to acquire assets or shares of an entity engaged in a business that generates, or has the potential of generating revenues, in exchange for securities of the Company.

NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that were included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended July 31, 2006.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has discontinued its historical lines of business and currently has no principal operations or revenue, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $209,743 since entering the development stage effective April 26, 2005. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is uncertain as it is contingent upon merging with another entity or acquiring revenue-producing activities. The financial statements do not include any adjustments or reclassifications that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) have been made that are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of MPLC, Inc. Operating results for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods to conform with the current period presentation.

DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY

Commencing April 26, 2005, the Company is considered a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, as it has no principal operations or revenue from any source.

INCOME TAXES

The Company follows SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Net loss per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including common stock equivalents (unless anti-dilutive).

NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)

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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3 LOAN PAYABLE - SHAREHOLDER

The Company had received loans totaling $163,248 from its director and the now former President at an interest rate of 8%, which were due on demand. The purpose of the loan was to provide funding necessary for the Company to continue its corporate existence, seek out a business combination and fund professional fees and expenses related to being an SEC reporting company. In October 2006, the loan and accrued interest were repaid.

NOTE 4 STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

On October 24, 2006, the Company and certain of its stockholders entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Trinad Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (“Trinad”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 69,750,000 shares of its common stock, representing 93% of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, to Trinad in a private placement transaction for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $750,000, $547,720 of which was used for the redemption of 23,448,870 shares of Common Stock from certain stockholders of the Company and $202,280 was used to pay all liabilities of the Company owed to Isaac Kier, a director and the now former President, Treasurer and Secretary of the Company.
 
As a result of stock purchase transaction on October 24, 2006, the following changes occurred in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company: Sid Banon resigned as a director; Isaac Kier resigned as President, Secretary and Treasurer; Robert Ellin was elected as Chief Executive Officer and President; Jay Wolf was elected as Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Secretary; Robert Ellin and Barry Regenstein are now directors of the Company, along with Isaac Kier and Jerome Chazen.
 
In addition, following closing, Isaac Kier or First Americas Management LLC, an affiliate of Mr. Kier, was no longer obligated to provide office space or services to the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements contained in this quarterly report of MPLC, Inc. (hereinafter the "Company", "We", "Us" or the "Registrant") discuss future expectations, contain projections of our plan of operation or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. In this report, forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words such as "anticipate", "plan", "believe", "expect", "estimate", and the like. Forward-looking statements involve future risks and uncertainties, and there are factors that could cause actual results or plans to differ materially from those expressed or implied. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The forward-looking information is based on various factors and is derived using numerous assumptions. A reader, whether investing in the Company's securities or not, should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this quarterly report. Important factors that may cause actual results to differ from projections include, for example: the success or failure of management's efforts to implement the Company's plan of operation; the ability of the Company to fund its operating expenses; the ability of the Company to compete with other companies that have a similar plan of operation; the effect of changing economic conditions impacting our plan of operation; and the ability of the Company to meet the other risks as may be described in future filings with the SEC.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The Company is currently a “shell” company with no operations and controlled by Trinad, the Company’s majority stockholder.

On November 22, 2006, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has executed a letter of intent which sets forth the preliminary terms and conditions of a proposed acquisition of New Motion, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“New Motion”). In connection with the acquisition, the Company will acquire all of the outstanding Common Stock of New Motion, and in exchange, the stockholders of New Motion will acquire approximately 83.7% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. The closing of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including execution of a definitive acquisition agreement and the completion of due diligence.

There can be no assurance that the merger will be consummated or, if consummated, that it will be consummated on the terms set forth in the Letter of Intent. We are therefore subject to a number of risks, including: this or any other acquisition consummated by us may turn out to be unsuccessful; and whether financing that could have a dilutive effect on our present stockholders will be required in connection therewith. The historical operations of a specific business opportunity may not necessarily be indicative of the potential for the future; we may acquire a company in the early stage of development, causing us to incur further risks; we may be dependent upon the management of an acquired business which has not proven its abilities or effectiveness; we will be controlled by a small number of stockholders and such control could prevent the taking of certain actions that may be beneficial to other stockholders; our common stock will likely be thinly traded, and the public market may provide little or no liquidity for holders of our common stock.

FRESH-START REPORTING

As a result of it's bankruptcy filing under Chapter 11, the Company is subject to the provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position (SOP) 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code." Under SOP 90-7, fresh-start reporting should be applied when, upon emergence from bankruptcy law proceedings, the reorganization value of a company is less than the sum of all allowed claims and post-petition liabilities of the company and the holders of the old common shares receive fewer than fifty percent of the new voting shares in the reorganization. Reorganization value is the fair value of the entity before considering liabilities and approximates the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets of the entity immediately after restructuring. On January 25, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan of Reorganization. All conditions required for adoption of fresh-start reporting were met on April 26, 2005 and the Company selected April 26, 2005 as the date to adopt the accounting provisions of fresh-start reporting. As the fair value of the Predecessor Company's net assets were determined to be $-0-, this became the new basis for the Successor Company's balance sheet as of April 26, 2005, and all results of operations beginning April 26, 2005 are those of the Successor Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes to the financial statements, which are included in this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB.

Net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2006 consisted of $10,032 for professional fees, $23,228 for interest expense $4,345 for other expenses.

Net loss for the period from April 26, 2005 (date of adoption of fresh-start reporting) to October 31, 2006 consisted of $178,957 for professional fees and other expenses, and $34,032 for interest expense.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies described in our Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2006.


We currently have no floating rate indebtedness, hold no derivative instruments, and do not earn foreign-sourced income. Accordingly, changes in interest rates or currency exchange rates do not generally have a direct effect on our financial position. Changes in interest rates may affect the amount of interest we earn on available cash balances as well as the amount of interest we pay on borrowings. To the extent that changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates affect general economic conditions, we may also be affected by such changes.
 

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that material information relating to us, was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB was being prepared.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control, that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting

PART II -OTHER INFORMATION
 
 

Other than a matter recently settled by the bankruptcy administrator in connection with a dispute with one creditor, a former landlord, for approximately $60,000, the Company's Chief Executive and Financial Officer and Directors are not aware of any threatened or pending litigation to which the Company is a party, or which any of its property is the subject, and which would have a material, adverse effect on the Company. The Company, prior to its bankruptcy proceeding, was subject to several claims. As a result of the order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court dated January 25, 2005, except as otherwise described in this quarterly report, the Company will be free from all liens, claims and interests of others that arose prior to the effective date of the Company's bankruptcy plan.
 
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALE OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On October 24, 2006, the Company and certain of its stockholders entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Trinad Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (“Trinad”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to redeem 23,448,870 shares of Common Stock from the stockholders and sell an aggregate of 69,750,000 shares of its common stock, representing 93% of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, to Trinad in a private placement transaction for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $750,000.
