                    Organization
 
 Mandalay
Media, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly
Mediavest, Inc., was originally incorporated in the state of Delaware on
November 6, 1998 under the name eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 27, 2000, it merged
into DynamicWeb Enterprises Inc., a New Jersey corporation, the surviving
company, and changed its name to eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 13, 2005, the
Company changed its name to Mediavest, Inc. Through January 26, 2005, the
Company and its former subsidiaries were engaged in providing
business-to-business transaction management services designed to simplify
trading between buyers and suppliers. The Company was inactive from January 26,
2005 until its merger with Twistbox Entertainment, Inc., February 12, 2008 (Note
6).  On September 14, 2007, the Company was re-incorporated in the
state of Delaware as Mandalay Media Inc.
 
 On
November 7, 2007, Mediavest merged into its wholly-owned, newly formed
subsidiary, Mandalay, with Mandalay as the surviving corporation. Mandalay
issued: (1) one new share of common stock in exchange for each share of
Mediavest’s outstanding common stock and (2) one new share of preferred
stock in exchange for each share of Mediavest’s outstanding preferred stock
as of November 7, 2007. Mandalay’s preferred and common stock had the same
status and par value as the respective stock of Mediavest and Mandalay acceded
to all the rights, acquired all the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of
Mediavest.
 
 On
February 12, 2008, the Company completed a merger (the “Merger”) with Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”) through an exchange of all outstanding capital
stock of Twistbox for 10,180 shares of common stock of the Company. In
connection with the Merger, the Company assumed all the outstanding options
under Twistbox’s Stock Incentive Plan by the issuance of options to purchase
2,463 shares of common stock of the Company, including 2,145 vested and 319
unvested options.
 
 After the
Merger, Twistbox became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the
company’s only active subsidiary at that time.  Twistbox Entertainment
Inc. (formerly known as The WAAT Corporation) is incorporated in the State of
Delaware.
 
 Twistbox
is considered the Predecessor entity and therefore, the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations and cash flows are presented for two
periods: Predecessor and Successor, which relate to the period preceding the
February 12, 2008 transaction and the period succeeding that date, respectively.
The Company refers to the operations of Mandalay Media, Inc.  and
subsidiaries for both the Predecessor and Successor periods.
 
 Twistbox
is a global publisher and distributor of branded entertainment content,
including images, video, TV programming and games, for Third Generation (3G)
mobile networks.  Twistbox publishes and distributes its content in a
number of countries.  Since operations began in 2003, Twistbox has
developed an intellectual property portfolio that includes mobile rights to
global brands and content from leading film, television and lifestyle content
publishing companies. Twistbox has built a proprietary mobile publishing
platform that includes: tools that automate handset portability for the
distribution of images and video; a mobile games development suite that
automates the porting of mobile games and applications to multiple handsets; and
a content standards and ratings system globally adopted by major wireless
carriers to assist with the responsible deployment of age-verified
content.  Twistbox has distribution agreements with many of the
largest mobile operators in the world. Twistbox is headquartered in the Los
Angeles area and has offices in Europe and South America that provide local
sales and marketing support for both mobile operators and third party
distribution in their respective regions.

certain adjustments based on the working capital of AMV, to be determined
initially within 75 days of the closing, and subsequently within 60 days
following June 30, 2009. Any such adjustment of the Purchase Price will be made
first by means of an adjustment to the principal sum due under the Note, as set
forth in the Agreement.

      of Significant Accounting
Policies
 
 Basis
of Presentation
 The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding
interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K/T, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which
the Company believes are necessary for a fair statement of the Successor’s
financial position as of December 31, 2008 and its results of operations for the
three months and the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
These consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the entire year. The consolidated balance sheet
presented as of December 31, 2008 has been derived from the unaudited
consolidated financial statements as of that date, and the consolidated balance
sheet presented as of March 31, 2008 has been derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements as of that date.
  Principles
of Consolidation
 The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

 Revenue
Recognition
 The
Company’s revenues are derived primarily by licensing material and software in
the form of products (Image Galleries, Wallpapers, video, WAP Site access,
Mobile TV) and mobile games. License arrangements with the end user can be on a
perpetual or subscription basis.
 
 A
perpetual license gives an end user the right to use the product, image or game
on the registered handset on a perpetual basis. A subscription license gives an
end user the right to use the product, image or game on the registered handset
for a limited period of time, ranging from a few days to as long as one
month.
 
 The
Company either markets and distributes its products directly to consumers, or
distributes products through mobile telecommunications service providers
(carriers), in which case the carrier markets the product, images or games to
end users. License fees for perpetual and subscription licenses are usually
billed upon download of the product, image or game by the end user. In the case
of subscriber licenses, many subscriber agreements provide for automatic renewal
until the subscriber opts-out, while others provide opt-in renewal. In either
case, subsequent billings for subscription licenses are generally billed
monthly. Twistbox applies the provisions of Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition,
as amended by Statement of Position 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With
Respect to Certain Transactions, to all transactions.
 
 Revenues
are recognized from the Company’s products, images and games when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, the product, image or game has been
delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and the collection of the resulting
receivable is probable. For both perpetual and subscription licenses, management
considers a signed license agreement to be evidence of an arrangement with a
carrier and a “clickwrap” agreement to be evidence of an arrangement with an end
user. For these licenses, the Company defines delivery as the download of the
product, image or game by the end user.
 
 The
Company estimates revenues from carriers in the current period when reasonable
estimates of these amounts can be made. Most carriers only provide detailed
sales transaction data on a one to two month lag. Estimated revenue is treated
as unbilled receivables until the detailed reporting is received and the
revenues can be billed. Some carriers provide reliable interim preliminary
reporting and others report sales data within a reasonable time frame following
the end of each month, both of which allow the Company to make reasonable
estimates of revenues and therefore to recognize revenues during the reporting
period when the end user licenses the product, image or game. Determination of
the appropriate amount of revenue recognized involves judgments and estimates
that the Company believes are reasonable, but it is possible that actual results
may differ from the Company’s estimates. The Company’s estimates for revenues
include consideration of factors such as preliminary sales data,
carrier-specific historical sales trends, volume of activity on company
monitored sites, seasonality, time elapsed from launch of services or product
lines, the age of games and the expected impact of newly launched games,
successful introduction of new handsets, growth of 3G subscribers by carrier,
promotions during the period and economic trends. When the Company receives the
final carrier reports, to the extent not received within a reasonable time frame
following the end of each month, the Company records any differences between
estimated revenues and actual revenues in the reporting period when the Company
determines the actual amounts. Revenues earned from certain carriers may not be
reasonably estimated. If the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the amount
of revenues to be recognized in the current period, the Company recognizes
revenues upon the receipt of a carrier revenue report and when the Company’s
portion of licensed revenues are fixed or determinable and collection is
probable. To monitor the reliability of the Company’s estimates, management,
where possible, reviews the revenues by country by carrier and by product line
on a regular basis to identify unusual trends such as differential adoption
rates by carriers or the introduction of new handsets. If the Company deems a
carrier not to be creditworthy, the Company defers all revenues from the
arrangement until the Company receives payment and all other revenue recognition
criteria have been met.

 In
accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a
Principal Versus Net as an Agent, the Company recognizes as revenues the
amount the carrier reports as payable upon the sale of the Company’s products,
images or games. The Company has evaluated its carrier agreements and has
determined that it is not the principal when selling its products, images or
games through carriers. Key indicators that it evaluated to reach this
determination include:
 •
                  wireless
      subscribers directly contract with the carriers, which have most of the
      service interaction and are generally viewed as the primary obligor by the
      subscribers;
 •
                  carriers
      generally have significant control over the types of content that they
      offer to their subscribers;
 •
                  carriers
      are directly responsible for billing and collecting fees from their
      subscribers, including the resolution of billing
  disputes;
 •
                  carriers
      generally pay the Company a fixed percentage of their revenues or a fixed
      fee for each game;
 •
                  carriers
      generally must approve the price of the Company’s content in advance of
      their sale to subscribers, and the Company’s more significant carriers
      generally have the ability to set the ultimate price charged to their
      subscribers; and
 •
                  The
      Company has limited risks, including no inventory risk and limited credit
      risk
 
 For
direct to consumer business, revenue is earned by delivering a product or
service directly to the end user of that product or service. In those cases the
Company records as revenue the amount billed to that end user and recognizes the
revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product, image or
game has been delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and the collection of
the resulting receivable is probable.
 
 Net
Income (Loss) per Common Share
 
 Basic
income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss)
attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is
computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus
dilutive common stock equivalents, using the treasury stock method. Potentially
dilutive shares from stock options and warrants and the conversion of the Series
A preferred stock for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and December 31,
2007 consisted of 1,630 and 2,690 shares, respectively, and for the nine
months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 consisted of 1,986 and 1,947 shares,
respectively, and were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share
as they were anti-dilutive in each period.
 
 Comprehensive
Income/(Loss)
 Comprehensive
income/(loss) consists of two components, net income/(loss) and other
comprehensive income/(loss). Other comprehensive income/(loss) refers to gains
and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are recorded as
an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income/(loss). The
Company’s other comprehensive income/(loss) currently includes only foreign
currency translation adjustments. Total
comprehensive loss for the successor for nine and three months ended
December 31, 2008 was $8,653 and $2,159, respectively. Total comprehensive
loss for the predecessor for the nine and the three months ended December 31,
2007 was $7,770 and $1,315, respectively.

 Cash
and Cash Equivalents
 The
Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
 Content
Provider Licenses
 
 Content
Provider License Fees and Minimum Guarantees
 The
Company’s royalty expenses consist of fees that it pays to branded content
owners for the use of
their intellectual property in the development of the Company’s games and other
content, and other expenses directly incurred in earning revenue. Royalty-based
obligations are either accrued as incurred and subsequently paid, or in the case
of longer term content acquisitions, paid in advance and capitalized on the
balance sheet as prepaid royalties. These royalty-based obligations are expensed
to cost of revenues either at the applicable contractual rate related to that
revenue or over the estimated life of the prepaid royalties. Advanced license
payments that are not recoupable against future royalties are capitalized and
amortized over the lesser of the estimated life of the branded title or the term
of the license agreement.
 
 The
Company’s contracts with some licensors include minimum guaranteed royalty
payments, which are payable regardless of the ultimate volume of sales to end
users. Each quarter, the Company evaluates the realization of its royalties as
well as any unrecognized guarantees not yet paid to determine amounts that it
deems unlikely to be realized through product sales. The Company uses estimates
of revenues, and share of the relevant licensor to evaluate the future
realization of future royalties and guarantees. This evaluation considers
multiple factors, including the term of the agreement, forecasted demand,
product life cycle status, product development plans, and current and
anticipated sales levels, as well as other qualitative factors. To the extent
that this evaluation indicates that the remaining future guaranteed royalty
payments are not recoverable, the Company records an impairment charge to cost
of revenues and a liability in the period that impairment is
indicated.
 
 Content
Acquired
 Amounts
paid to third party content providers as part of an agreement to make content
available to the Company for a term or in perpetuity, without a revenue share,
have been capitalized and are included in the balance sheet as prepaid
expenses.  These balances will be expensed over the estimated life of
the material acquired.
 
 Software
Development Costs
 The
Company applies the principles of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed(“SFAS No. 86”). SFAS
No. 86 requires that software development costs incurred in conjunction with
product development be charged to research and development expense until
technological feasibility is established. Thereafter, until the product is
released for sale, software development costs must be capitalized and reported
at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value of the related
product.

 The
Company has adopted the “tested working model” approach to establishing
technological feasibility for its products and games. Under this approach, the
Company does not consider a product or game in development to have passed the
technological feasibility milestone until the Company has completed a model of
the product or game that contains essentially all the functionality and features
of the final game and has tested the model to ensure that it works as expected.
To date, the Company has not incurred significant costs between the
establishment of technological feasibility and the release of a product or game
for sale; thus, the Company has expensed all software development costs as
incurred. The Company considers the following factors in determining whether
costs can be capitalized: the emerging nature of the mobile market; the gradual
evolution of the wireless carrier platforms and mobile phones for which it
develops products and games; the lack of pre-orders or sales history for its
products and games; the uncertainty regarding a product’s or game’s
revenue-generating potential; its lack of control over the carrier distribution
channel resulting in uncertainty as to when, if ever, a product or game will be
available for sale; and its historical practice of canceling products and games
at any stage of the development process.
 
 Product
Development Costs
 The
Company charges costs related to research, design and development of products to product
development expense as incurred. The types of costs included in product
development expenses include salaries, contractor fees and allocated facilities
costs.
 
 Advertising
Expenses
 The
Company expenses the production costs of advertising, including direct response
advertising, the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising expense for
the Successor was $2,487 and $0 in the three months ended December 31, 2008 and
2007, respectively, and $3,060 and $0 in the nine months ended December 31, 2008
and 2007, respectively.  Advertising expense for the Predecessor was
$202 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and $278 for the nine months
ended December 31, 2007.
  Restructuring
 The
Company accounts for costs associated with employee terminations and other exit
activities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The
Company records employee termination benefits as an operating expense when it
communicates the benefit arrangement to the employee and it requires no
significant future services, other than a minimum retention period, from the
employee to earn the termination benefits.
 
 Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
 For
certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current
liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their fair value due to their
relatively short maturity. Based on the borrowing rates available to the Company
for loans with similar terms, the carrying value of borrowings outstanding
approximates their fair value.
 
 Foreign Currency
Translation.
 The
Company uses the United States dollar for financial reporting
purposes.  Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated
using current rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Equity
accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the
capital transaction occurred.  Statement of Operations amounts are
translated at average rates in effect for the reporting period. The foreign
currency translation adjustment (loss) for the Successor was $395 for the three
months ended December 31, 2008 and $279 for the nine months ended December 31,
2008.  The foreign currency translation adjustment (loss) for the
Predecessor was $9 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and $108 for the
nine months ended December 31, 2007.  The foreign currency translation
adjustment (loss) has been reported as a component of comprehensive loss in the
consolidated statement of stockholders equity and comprehensive
loss.  Translation gains or losses are shown as a separate component
of retained earnings.

 Concentrations
of Credit Risk.
 Financial
instruments which potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist
principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts
receivable. We have placed cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments
with a single high credit-quality institution. As of December 31, 2008, we did
not have any long-term marketable securities. The Company’s sales are made
either directly to consumers, with the billings performed by and the receivable
due from industry aggregators; or directly to the large national Mobile Phone
Operators in the countries that we operate. We have a significant level of
business and resulting significant accounts receivable balance with one operator
and therefore have a high concentration of credit risk with that operator. We
perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance
for potential credit losses. As of December 31, 2008, approximately 20% of our
gross accounts receivable outstanding was with one major customer. This customer
accounted for 13% of our gross sales in the three months ended December 31, 2008
and 7% in the nine months ended December 31, 2008.
 
 Property
and Equipment
 Property
and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization is
calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
related assets. Estimated useful lives are 8 to 10 years for leasehold
improvements and 5 years for other assets.
 
 Goodwill
 In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”), the Company’s goodwill is not
amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may
not be recoverable.
 
 Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles
 Long-lived
assets, including purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized
using the straight-line method over their useful lives ranging from three to ten
years and are reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured
by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered
to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by
which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the
assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
 
 Income
Taxes
 The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes(“SFAS No. 109”), which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
included in its financial statements or tax returns. Under SFAS No. 109, the
Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences
between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and
liabilities along with net operating losses, if it is more likely than not the
tax benefits will be realized using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year
in which it expects the differences to reverse.  To the extent a
deferred tax asset cannot be recognized, a valuation allowance is established if
necessary.

 We
adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes—An Interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (“FIN 48”)
on January 1, 2008. FIN 48 did not impact the Company’s financial position or
results of operations at the date of adoption. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial
statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes that a company
should use a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold based on the technical
merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions that meet the
“more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold should be measured as the largest
amount of the tax benefits, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which
is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial
statements. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as
a component of the provision for income taxes. We do not currently anticipate
that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change
within the next 12 months.
 
 Stock-based compensation.
 We have
applied SFAS No. 123(R) Share-Based Payment (“FAS 123R”) and accordingly, we
record stock-based compensation expense for all of our stock-based
awards.
 
 Under FAS
123R, we estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value for awards that are expected
to vest is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. The amount of
expense recognized represents the expense associated with the stock options we
expect to ultimately vest based upon an estimated rate of forfeitures; this rate
of forfeitures is updated as necessary and any adjustments needed to recognize
the fair value of options that actually vest or are forfeited are
recorded.
 
 The
Black-Scholes option pricing model, used to estimate the fair value of an award,
requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility
of our common stock and an option’s expected life. As a result, the financial
statements include amounts that are based upon our best estimates and judgments
relating to the expenses recognized for stock-based compensation.
 
 Preferred
Stock
 
 The
Company applies the guidance enumerated in SFAS No. 150, “Accounting
for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity,” and EITF Topic D-98, “Classification and Measurement of Redeemable
Securities,” when determining the classification and measurement of preferred
stock. Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified
as liability instruments and are measured at fair value in accordance with
SFAS 150. The Company does not have any preferred shares subject to
mandatory redemption. All other issuances of preferred stock are subject to the
classification and measurement principles of EITF Topic D-98. Accordingly, the
Company classifies conditionally redeemable preferred shares (if any), which
includes preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within
the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of
uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control, as temporary equity.
At all other times, the Company classifies its preferred shares in stockholders’
equity.

 Use
of Estimates
 The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent asset and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates relate to revenues
for periods not yet reported by Carriers, liabilities recorded for future
minimum guarantee payments under content licenses, accounts receivable
allowances, stock-based compensation expense, the application of purchase
accounting, the carrying value and recoverability of long-lived assets,
including goodwill, amortizable intangibles, the realizability of deferred tax
assets, and the fair value of equity instruments.
 
 Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
 In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 160, “Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, which is an amendment of
Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51.  This statement clarifies
that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the
consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated
financial statements.  This statement changes the way the consolidated
income statement is presented, thus requiring consolidated net income to be
reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both parent and the
noncontrolling interest.  This statement is effective for the fiscal
years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after
December 15, 2008.  Based on current conditions, the Company does not
expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on its results of
operations or financial position.
  In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R (revised 2007), “Business
Combinations.”  This statement replaces FASB Statement No. 141,
“Business Combinations.” This statement retains the fundamental requirements in
SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS 141 called
the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer
to be identified for each business combination. This statement defines the
acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the
business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the
acquirer achieves control. This statement requires an acquirer to recognize the
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non controlling interest in
the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that
date, with limited exceptions specified in the statement. This statement applies
prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or
after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 141R to have
a significant impact on its results of operations or financial
position.
  In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB No. 133,” (“SFAS
161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by
requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging
activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all derivative instruments
within the scope of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”). SFAS 161 also applies to non-derivative
hedging instruments and all hedged items designated and qualifying under SFAS
133. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for
fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with
early application encouraged. SFAS 161 encourages, but does not require,
comparative disclosures for periods prior to its initial adoption. The Company
does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a significant impact on its
results of operations or financial position.

  In April
2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of
the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”.  FSP 142-3 amends the factors
an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions used in
determining the useful life of recognized intangible assets under FASB Statement
No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  This new guidance
applies prospectively to intangible assets that are acquired individually or
with a group of other assets in business combinations and asset acquisitions.
FSP 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008.  Early adoption is
prohibited.  The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to
have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial
position.

                    Liquidity
  The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation
of the Company as a going concern.  One of the Company’s operating
subsidiaries, Twistbox, has sustained substantial operating losses since
commencement of operations.  In addition, the Company has incurred negative
cash flows from operating activities and the majority of the Company’s assets
are intangible assets and goodwill.
  In view
of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations
of the Company, which is in turn dependent on the Company reaching a positive
cash flow position or obtaining additional financing, while maintaining adequate
liquidity.
  Management
believes that actions undertaken to achieve this position provide the
opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. These actions
include the acquisition consummated in the current quarter along with a
restructuring as part of the integration, and debt restructuring and equity
placements which occurred in the current quarter. In addition, the Company has
taken action subsequent to the period end to reduce its ongoing operating cost
base. Other actions include continued increases in revenues by introducing new
products and revenue streams, continued expansion into new territories,
reviewing additional financing options, and accretive
acquisitions.

                    Description
      of Stock Plans
  On
September 27, 2007, the stockholders of the Company adopted the 2007 Employee,
Director and Consultant Stock Plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan, the Company may
grant up to 3,000 shares or equivalents of common stock of the Company as
incentive stock options (ISO), non-qualified options (NQO), stock grants or
stock-based awards to employees, directors or consultants, except that ISO’s
shall only be issued to employees. Generally, ISO’s and NQO’s shall be issued at
prices not less than fair market value at the date of issuance, as defined, and
for terms ranging up to ten years, as defined. All other terms of grants shall
be determined by the board of directors of the Company, subject to the
Plan.
  On
February 12, 2008, the Company amended the Plan to increase the number of shares

  Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. and related entities
 
 On
February 12, 2008, the Company completed an acquisition of Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”) through an exchange of all outstanding capital
stock of Twistbox for 10,180 shares of common stock of the Company and the
Company’s assumption of all the outstanding options of Twistbox’s 2006 Stock
Incentive Plan by the issuance of options to purchase 2,463 shares of common
stock of the Company, including 2,145 vested and 318 unvested options. After the
Merger, Twistbox became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
  Twistbox
is a global publisher and distributor of branded entertainment content,
including images, video, TV programming and games, for Third Generation (3G)
mobile networks. It publishes and distributes its content globally and has
developed an intellectual property portfolio unique to its target demographic
that includes worldwide mobile rights to global brands and content from leading
film, television and lifestyle content publishing companies. Twistbox has built
a proprietary mobile publishing platform and has leveraged its brand portfolio
and platform to secure “direct” distribution agreements with the largest mobile
operators in the world. These factors contributed to a purchase price in excess
of the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, and, as a
result, the Company recorded goodwill in connection with this
transaction.
  In
connection with the Merger, the Company guaranteed up to $8,250 of principal
under an existing note of Twistbox in accordance with the terms, conditions and
limitations contained in the note. In connection with the guaranty, the Company
issued the lender two warrants, one to purchase 1,093 and the other to purchase
1,093 shares of common stock of the Company, exercisable at $7.55 per share, and
at $5.00 per share, (increasing to $7.55 per share, if not exercised in full by
February 12, 2009), respectively, through July 30, 2011. The warrants have been
included as part of the purchase consideration and have been valued using the
Black Scholes method, using the stock price at the merger date of $4.75 per
share discounted for certain restrictions, a volatility of 70%, and the exercise
price and the expected time to vest for each group. These warrants were
subsequently amended as described in Note 8.

  The
purchase consideration was determined by an independent valuation to be $67,479,
consisting of $66,025 attributed to the common stock and options exchanged and
warrants issued, and $1,454 in transaction costs.  During the last
quarter, a further $59 of transaction costs were recognized, with the result
that the purchase consideration was increased to $67,538, with an equivalent
increase in Goodwill. The options and warrants were valued using the Black
Scholes method, using the stock price at the merger date of $4.75 per share, a
volatility of 70%, and in the case of options the exercise price and the
expected time to vest for each group. Under the purchase method of accounting,
the Company allocated the total purchase price of $67,538 to the net tangible
and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their
respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date as
follows:

 AMV
Holding Limited group
 
 On
October 23, 2008, the Company completed an acquisition of 100% of AMV Holding
Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company (“AMV”) and 80% of Fierce
Media Limited. The acquisition was effective on October 1, 2008.
 
 Subject
to adjustment as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement, the aggregate
purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) consisted of: (a) $5,375 in cash (the
“Cash Consideration”); (b) 4,500 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock (the “Stock Consideration”); (c) a secured promissory note in the
aggregate original principal amount of $5,375 (the “Note”); and (d) additional
earn-out amounts, if any, if the Acquired Companies achieve certain targeted
earnings for each of the periods from October 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009, April
1, 2009 to March 31, 2010, and April 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010, as
determined in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Price
is subject to certain adjustments based on the working capital of AMV, to be
determined initially within 75 days of the closing, and subsequently within 60
days following June 30, 2009. Any such adjustment of the Purchase Price will be
made first by means of an adjustment to the principal sum due under the Note, as
set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The initial adjustment has been
determined preliminarily as $443, to be added to the secured promissory
note.

 Prior to
closing, each outstanding option to purchase shares of capital stock of AMV (an
“AMV Option”) was either exercised in full or terminated. The Note matures on
January 30, 2010, and bears interest at an initial rate of 5% per annum, subject
to adjustment as provided therein. In the event the Company completes an equity
financing that results in gross proceeds of over $6,000, the Company will prepay
a portion of the Note in an amount equal to one-third of the excess of the gross
proceeds of such financing over $6,000. In addition, if within nine months of
the issuance date of the Note, the Company completes a financing that results in
gross proceeds of over $15,000, then the Company shall prepay the entire
principal amount then outstanding under the Note, plus accrued interest. If
within nine months of the issuance date of the Note, the aggregate principal sum
then outstanding under the Note plus accrued interest thereon has not been
prepaid, then on and after such date, interest shall accrue on the unpaid
principal balance of the Note at a rate of 7% per annum. Additionally, in
connection with the Note, AMV granted to the Sellers a security interest in its
assets. Such security interest is subordinate to the security interest granted
to ValueAct Small Cap Master Fund, L.P. (“ValueAct) under the Senior Secured
Note, issued by Twistbox Entertainment, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company (“Twistbox”),  due January 30, 2010, as amended on February 12,
2008 (the “ValueAct Note”), and as subsequently amended on October 23, 2008. AMV
also agreed to guarantee Mandalay’s repayment of the Note to the
Sellers.
 
 The
Purchase Price has been preliminarily estimated by the Company to be $22,255
consisting of $9,900 attributed to the Stock Consideration issued, $5,375 in
cash, $95 is stamp duty, $5,818 under the Note referenced above, $313 adjustment
in valuation of warrants which were re-priced in connection with the acquisition
and $658 in transaction costs.  Any further  adjustments
required under the “working capital adjustment” provision and any adjustment
under the “earn-out” provision of the Agreement have not yet been determined and
therefore have not been included in the preliminary calculation of the purchase
price. The shares of the Stock Consideration were valued using the closing stock
price at the acquisition date of $2.20 per share. Under the purchase method of
accounting, the Company allocated the total Purchase Price of $22,255 to the net
tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their
respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date as

 Goodwill
recognized in the above transaction is preliminarily estimated at $22,688.
The  business acquired is not capital intensive and does not require
significant identifiable intangible assets – as a result the greater proportion
of consideration has been allocated to goodwill.  Goodwill in relation
to the acquisition of AMV is not expected to be deductible for income tax
purposes. The preliminary purchase price allocation, including the allocation of
goodwill, will be updated as additional information becomes available.
Acquisition related restructuring reserves include reserves for employee
severance and for office relocation.
 
 The
acquisitions described above both included the issuance of Company stock as all
or part of the consideration.  Based on the trading price of the Company’s
common stock as of the acquisition dates, the total consideration was $67,538
for the Twistbox acquisition and $22,255 for the AMV acquisition. 
Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company’s average trading price has decreased
significantly.  If the decrease in trading price is deemed to “not be
temporary in nature”, management expects that an impairment of goodwill and
other long lived intangible assets could occur by year end.  Other factors
affecting management’s estimate of impairment include the current profitability
and expected future cash flows from the acquired business.

  In July
2007, Twistbox entered into a debt financing agreement in the form of a senior
secured note amounting to $16,500, payable at 30 months with ValueAct Small Cap
Master Fund L.P. (the “ValueAct Note”). The holder of the ValueAct Note was
granted first lien over all of the Company’s assets. The ValueAct Note carried
interest of 9% annually for the first year and 10% subsequently, with
semi-annual interest only payments. The agreement included certain restrictive
covenants. In conjunction with the merger described in Note 6, the Company
guaranteed up to $8,250 of the principal; and the restrictive covenants were
modified, including a requirement for both the Company and Twistbox to maintain
certain minimum cash balances. In connection with the guaranty, the Company
issued the lender warrants to purchase 1,093 and 1,093 shares of common stock of
the Company, exercisable at $7.55 per share, and at $5.00 per share, (increasing
to $7.55 per share, if not exercised in full by February 12, 2009),
respectively, through July 30, 2011. These warrants replaced warrants originally
issued by Twistbox in conjunction with the ValueAct Note.

 On
October 23, 2008, the Company, Twistbox and ValueAct entered into a Second
Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the ValueAct Note. Among other things, the
Second Amendment provides for a payment in kind election, whereby, in lieu of
making any cash payments to ValueAct on the following two interest payment
dates, Twistbox may elect that the amount of any interest due on such date be
added to the principal amount due under the ValueAct Note. That election was
made in connection with the first interest payment following the amendment. In
addition, ValueAct agreed to amend the ValueAct Note to modify the covenant
requiring that the Company and Twistbox maintain certain minimum combined cash
balances, during specified periods of time. Lastly, the Second Amendment
provides that an event of default may be triggered in the event the Company
fails to observe certain covenants as agreed to in the Second Amendment,
including a covenant that, until all principal and interest and any other
amounts due under the ValueAct Note are paid in full in cash, the Company: (i)
will not create, incur, assume or permit to exist certain indebtedness, except
for indebtedness in connection with a receivables facility as described in the
Second Amendment, which indebtedness would rank pari passu in right of payment
on the ValueAct Note, provided, that any receivables used to procure and
maintain such receivables facility shall not be subject to any lien of ValueAct
during the term of such receivables facility; and (ii) will not, and will not
permit any subsidiary to, without the prior consent of ValueAct, prepay any
indebtedness incurred in connection with the AMV Note, other than prepayments
with proceeds raised in an equity financing as permitted by the AMV Note.
Additionally, on October 23, 2008, in connection with the ValueAct Note, as
amended, AMV agreed to grant to ValueAct a security interest in its assets,
which ranks senior to the security interest granted to the Sellers. AMV also
agreed to guarantee Twistbox’s repayment of the ValueAct Note.
  As
described above, the Company had previously issued to ValueAct two warrants to
purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Common Stock”). One warrant entitled ValueAct to purchase up to a total of
1,093 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.55 per share
(“$7.55 Warrant”). The other warrant entitled ValueAct to purchase up to a total
of 1,093 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $5.00 per
share (“$5.00 Warrant,” and together with the $7.55 Warrant, the “ValueAct
Warrants”). On October 23, 2008, the Company and ValueAct entered into an
allonge to each of the ValueAct Warrants. Among other things, the exercise price
of each of the ValueAct Warrants was amended to be $4.00 per share.
  Minimum
future obligations, including interest, under the Senior Secured Note are
$19,101 during the year ended December 31, 2010 including repayment of the
principal. Capitalized lease assets are set out in Note 4. Future obligations
under capitalized leases are included as part of Other Obligations in Note
15.

                  Income
      Taxes
 
 As of
December 31, 2008, the Company had net operating loss (NOL) carry-forwards to
reduce future Federal income taxes of approximately $41,400, expiring in various
years ranging through 2027. The Company may have had ownership changes, as
defined by the Internal Revenue Service, which may subject the NOL's to annual
limitations which could reduce or defer the use of the NOL
carry-forwards.
  In
connection with the acquisitions described in Note 6 above, the Company has
recorded Goodwill, amounting to $83,758, which will not be amortized for book
purposes and is not deductible for tax purposes. The Company also recorded
intangibles which will have differing amortization for book and tax purposes.
Trademarks, amounting to $13,761, will not be amortized for book purposes, but
will be subject to amortization for tax purposes, giving rise to a permanent
difference. Other intangible assets, amounting to $7,506, will be amortized over
a shorter period for book purposes than tax purposes, giving rise to timing
differences. These differences will impact the Company’s NOL carry-forwards in
the future.
  As of
December 31, 2008, realization of the Company's net deferred tax asset of
approximately $18,120 was not considered more likely than not and, accordingly,
a valuation allowance of $18,120 has been provided. During the three months
ended December 31, 2008, the valuation allowance decreased by $80.
  Management
has evaluated and concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax
positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements as of
December 31, 2008.

 The
Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2008 and there was no
difference between the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits recognized in the
balance sheet prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and those after the adoption of
FIN 48. There were no unrecognized tax benefits not subject to valuation
allowance as at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007. The Company recognized
no interest and penalties on income taxes in its statement of operations for the
three months or the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 . Management
believes that with few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income
tax examinations by tax authorities for years before March 31,
2004.

  Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
  The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its
entirety by, the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in this
report. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar
expressions, as they relate to our management or us, are intended to identify
such forward-looking statements. Our actual results, performance or achievements
could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these
forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors including those
set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Transitional Report on Form 10-KT for the
Transition Period ended March 31, 2008. Historical operating results are not
necessarily indicative of the trends in operating results for any future
period.
  Unless
the context otherwise indicates, the use of the terms “we,” “our” “us” or the
“Company” refer to the business and operations of Mandalay Media, Inc.
(“Mandalay”) through its operating and wholly-owned subsidiaries, Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”) and AMV Holding Limited, a United Kingdom
private limited company (“AMV”).
  This
discussion is included to compare the financial results of our successor to the
financial results of our predecessor.

advertising and marketing campaigns – advertising has increased significantly
with the AMV Acquisition in October 2008 due to the “direct to consumer” nature

classified as sales and marketing employees.
 
 General
and administrative expenses represent management and support personnel costs in
both Mandalay Media and Twistbox, and related expenses, as well as professional
and consulting costs incurred, and other costs such as stock based compensation,
depreciation and bad debt expenses.  The increase in expense over the
first quarter in the prior year is largely the result of stock option expense of
$0.6 million, and additional legal and management expenses at the holding
company level.
 
 Amortization
of intangibles in the current quarter represents amortization of the intangibles
identified as part of the purchase price accounting related to the Twistbox
acquisition and attributed to operating expenses. Amortization expenses in the
