    Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of
treasury bills and money market funds with
original maturity dates of three months or
less, for which we determine fair value through
quoted market prices.(2)
    
    Investments in available-for-sale securities consist of
treasury bills with original maturity dates in excess of
three months, for which we determine fair value through
quoted market prices.(3)
    
    Investments in available-for-sale securities consist of
one auction-rate municipal security and two closed end
perpetual preferred auction-rate securities (PPS). The
fair value of PPS securities are calculated using a
discounted cash flow analysis to more accurately measure
possible liquidity discounts.   13

    We capture corporate overhead that is applicable to both segments, but not directly related to
operations in a separate business unit, as Corporate. The expenses allocated to Corporate
consisted primarily of executive, legal and administrative functions not associated directly with
either TOC or Production Services. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash not held in our
operating accounts and available-for-sale securities. NOTE 13RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    Legal Proceedings.
      
 ITEM 1A.
    
    Risk Factors.
  Service providers could discontinue or refrain from carrying Outdoor Channel, or decide to not
renew our distribution agreements, which could substantially reduce the number of viewers and harm
our operating results.
  34




---



##### Table of Contents



If our channel is placed in unpopular program packages by our service providers, or if service fees
are increased for our subscribers, the number of viewers of our channel may decline which could
harm our business and operating results.
  We could have an aerial camera fall, harming our reputation and possibly causing damage exceeding
our liability insurance limits.
  A deterioration in general economic conditions may cause a decrease in, or hinder our ability to
grow, our advertising revenues.
  We may not be able to effectively manage our future growth or the integration of acquisitions, and
our growth may not continue, which may substantially harm our business and prospects.
  35




---



##### Table of Contents



We may not be able to maintain sufficient revenue relating to our production business to offset its
fixed costs, and as a result our profitability may decrease.
  We may not be able to grow our subscriber base of Outdoor Channel at a sufficient rate to offset
planned increased costs, decreased revenue or at all, and as a result our revenues and
profitability may not increase and could decrease.
  We do not control the methodology used by Nielsen to estimate our subscriber base or television
ratings, and changes, or inaccuracies, in such estimates could cause our advertising revenue to
decrease.
  If we offer favorable terms or incentives to service providers in order to grow our subscriber
base, our operating results may be harmed or your percentage of the Company may be diluted.
  36




---



##### Table of Contents



If, in our attempt to increase our number of subscribers, we structure favorable terms or
incentives with one service provider in a way that would require us to offer the same terms or
incentives to all other service providers, our operating results may be harmed.
  We may become constrained in our programming content if some organizations are successful in
obtaining legal restrictions on certain content in our programming which may increase our
production expenses, and cause our viewers to decrease their viewing time which in turn could cause
decreased advertising revenue.
  Consolidation among service providers may harm our business.
  The cable, satellite and telco television industry is subject to substantial governmental
regulation for which compliance may increase our costs, hinder our growth and possibly expose us to
penalties for failure to comply.
    Our investments in auction-rate securities are subject to risks which may affect the liquidity of
these investments and could cause additional impairment charges.
  37




---



##### Table of Contents



We may not be able to secure sufficient or additional advertising revenue, and as a result, our
profitability may be negatively impacted.
   We cannot be certain in the future that we will be able to report that our controls are without
material weakness or to complete our evaluation of those controls in a timely fashion.
   Expenses relating to programming and production costs are generally increasing and a number of
factors can cause cost overruns and delays, and our operating results may be adversely impacted if
we are not able to successfully recover the costs of developing, acquiring and producing new
programming.

Our expansion into international operations has inherent risks, including currency exchange rate
fluctuations, possible governmental seizure of property, and our inability or increased costs
associated with enforcing our rights, including intellectual property rights.
  If we fail to develop and distribute popular programs, our viewership would likely decline, which
could cause advertising and subscriber fee revenues to decrease.
  The market in which we operate is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete
effectively, particularly against competitors with greater financial resources, brand recognition,
marketplace presence and relationships with service providers.
    Changes in corporate governance and securities disclosure and compliance practices have increased
and may continue to increase our legal compliance and financial reporting costs.
  40

##### Table of Contents



The satellite infrastructure that we use may fail or be preempted by another signal, which could
impair our ability to deliver programming to our service providers.
  Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could interrupt our signal.
  Seasonal increases or decreases in advertising revenue may negatively affect our business.
  We may be unable to access capital, or offer equity as an incentive for increased subscribers or
for acquisitions, on acceptable terms to fund our future growth and operations.
  We may not be able to attract and retain key personnel.
  41




---



##### Table of Contents



Cable, satellite and telco television programming signals have been stolen or could be stolen in
the future, which reduces our potential revenue from subscriber fees and advertising.
  Because we expect to become increasingly dependent upon our intellectual property rights, our
inability to protect those rights could negatively impact our ability to compete.
  We may face intellectual property infringement claims that could be time-consuming, costly to
defend and result in our loss of significant rights.
  Some of our existing stockholders can exert control over us and may not make decisions that are in
the best interests of all stockholders.
  The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations.
  42

##### Table of Contents



Anti-takeover provisions in our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and under Delaware law may
enable our incumbent management to retain control of us and discourage or prevent a change of
control that may be beneficial to our stockholders.
  
    
    allow the authorized number of directors to be changed only by resolution of our board of
directors;
    
    establish a classified board of directors, providing that not all members of the board be
elected at one time;
    
    require a 66 2/3% stockholder vote to remove a director, and only for cause;
    
    authorize our board of directors to issue without stockholder approval blank check
preferred stock that, if issued, could operate as a poison pill to dilute the stock
ownership of a potential hostile acquirer to prevent an acquisition that is not approved by
our board of directors;
    
    require that stockholder actions must be effected at a duly called stockholder meeting
and prohibit stockholder action by written consent;
    
    establish advance notice requirements for stockholder nominations to our board of
directors or for stockholder proposals that can be acted on at stockholder meetings;
    
    except as provided by law, allow only our board of directors to call a special meeting of
the stockholders; and
    
    require a 66 2/3% stockholder vote to amend our certificate of incorporation or bylaws.
  Technologies in the pay television industry are constantly changing, and our failure to acquire or
maintain state-of-the-art technology may harm our business and competitive advantage.
  If our goodwill becomes impaired, we will be required to recognize a noncash charge which could
have a significant effect on our reported net earnings.
  Future issuance by us of preferred shares could adversely affect the holders of existing shares,
and therefore reduce the value of existing shares.
