MAGIC LANTERN GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations for interim financial information. These financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and are incorporated herein by reference.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has sustained substantial losses for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001. The Company's cash position is in excess of $440,000 at August 10, 2004, and is sufficient to cover the current rate of operating activity until August 31, 2004 (see "contractual obligations and commercial commitments" found in Management's Discussion and Analysis). The Company's working capital deficiency at June 30, 2004 was approximately $2,280,000, which has increased slightly since December 31, 2003. Historically, the Company has sought financing from its major shareholders. The Company continues to seek new equity financing from other funds and sources to support its strategic initiatives for new sales and revenue streams and expansion into the United States.
Failing additional equity financing solutions, the Company's options for achieving a neutral cash flow portion include factoring of accounts receivable and a corporate reduction of discretionary investments and overall downsizing. The failure by the Company to raise additional financing raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue 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.
On May 3, 2004, the Company closed the private placement of a $1,500,000 principal secured convertible three-year term note (the "Note") with the Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. ("Laurus Funds") in an offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act. The Note bears interest at the prime rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, plus 2% (which under no circumstances will be considered to fall below 6% on a combined basis), with interest and amortizing payments of principal commencing August 1, 2004. The interest payable on the note is adjustable downward by 2% if the Company shall have registered shares of Laurus Funds' stock underlying the Note on a registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Company's stock is trading at a 25% or greater premium to the fixed conversion price under the Note of $0.25. The interest payment will be adjusted downward by 1% in the event the Company has not registered shares of Laurus Funds' stock underlying the Note, and the Company's stock is trading at a 25% or greater premium to the fixed conversion price under the Note of $0.25.
-7-
Payments under the Note are convertible to common stock of the Company at the option of Laurus Funds at a fixed conversion price of $0.25. The Company may prepay outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Note by delivering to Laurus Funds in cash an amount that is equal to 125% of the aggregate amount of outstanding principal of the Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest and all other sums due, accrued or payable to Laurus Funds. As part of the transaction, Laurus Funds also received a seven-year warrant to purchase 1,100,000 shares the Company, exercisable at $0.30. These warrants were valued at $958,000 and accrete into interest over the term of the note. The effective interest rate is 34.4%.
Common shares issuable to Laurus Funds subject to Note conversion and issuable upon exercise of the warrant were registered under the terms of a registration rights agreement.
Payment of all principal and interest under the note, as well as performance of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries, under all of the ancillary agreements entered into by the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with the sale of the note and warrant, are secured by a security interest in favor of Laurus Funds in all of the assets of both the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Company paid a closing fee equal to $58,500 to the manager of Laurus Funds and paid $29,500 as reimbursement for the investor's legal and due diligence expenses.
Note 2. Accounting Policies
Stock Based Compensation
At June 30, 2004, the Company has four stock-based compensation plans, more fully described in the annual report on Form 10-K. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principals of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Note 3. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and a highly liquid investment in Guaranteed Investments Certificates ("GIC"), available for withdrawal by the Company upon request. The GIC has been pledged as security for a line of credit, of which approximately $110,000 has been drawn upon by the Company as of June 30, 2004.
Note 4. Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods held for sale, which are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. The following table summarizes the components of inventory as at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003:

| $ | 88 | $ | 78 | ||
Note 5. Earnings Per Share
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("FAS 128"). Under FAS 128, companies that are publicly held or have complex capital structures are required to present basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted and the resulting additional shares are dilutive because their inclusion decreases the amount of EPS. The following reconciles basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.
