NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Business
Sunshine Media Group, Inc. (the Company), incorporated on December 20, 2000, is a fully integrated publisher of regionally focused specialty trade magazines headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Company provides full service advertising campaigns for the Hospital industry (Digital, Print and CRM). It also publishes in house magazines for which it sells ad space across two different titles; Builder Architect and M.D. News for a number of licensed publishers.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sunshine Media, Inc., Sunshine Media Printing, Inc., Sunshine Media Advertising, Inc., SMTN, Inc., Sunshine Custom Publishing, Inc., and True North Custom Publishing, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys carrying amount for its financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and long-term debt, approximate fair value.
Contingent Risk Regarding Cash Balances
From time to time, the Company has on deposit, in institutions whose accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), funds that total in excess of the insured maximum. The at-risk amount is subject to significant fluctuations on a daily basis throughout the year. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a periodic basis. Interest is not normally charged on receivables. A valuation allowance is provided for known and anticipated credit losses, as determined by management in the course of regularly evaluating individual customer receivables. This evaluation takes into consideration a customers financial condition and credit history, as well as current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.
Plant and Equipment
Plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major additions and betterments are capitalized; maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When plant and equipment are disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the respective amount, and resulting gains or losses are reflected in earnings. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. Plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from advertising and reprint sales is recognized upon distribution of the related magazines and reprints. Amounts received in advance of distribution are deferred as a customer deposit liability and are recognized as revenue upon distribution of the related magazines and reprints, generally within one to three months of receipt.
Revenues from publication contracts are recognized based on the established stages of completion.
Contract costs include direct job costs related to contract performance, such as mail prep costs, postage and custom photography. Direct labor payroll costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.
The asset unbilled revenue represents work performed on contracts not yet earned. The liability deferred revenue represents billings in excess of revenues earned.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition (Continued)
The direct costs associated with print expenses are treated as a cost reimbursement and are recognized as revenue when incurred. Print costs incurred in excess of print billings are recorded as a receivable. Print billings in excess of print costs incurred are deferred as a liability.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling costs billed to customers as sales and totaled $436,427 and $479,606 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Costs associated with shipping and handlings are included in cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations and totaled $348,963 and $385,431 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled $16,983 and $39,731, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for taxable temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company follows the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Using this guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions initially and subsequently need to be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
Based on its evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements. The Companys evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2017, for both the United States Federal Income Tax and various states. These are the years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2017.

NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES
The Company incurred no income tax expense or benefit for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. This consists of a deferred tax expense (benefit) of $4,120,900 and ($786,500) for December 31, 2017 and 2016 with a change in valuation allowance of $(4,120,900) and $786,500 for December 31, 2017 and 2016.
On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (The Act). The Act permanently reduces the U.S. Corporate income tax rate from a maximum of 35% to a flat 21%, effective January 1, 2018. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. As a result of the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate, the Company revalued its ending deferred tax asset at December 31, 2017 and recognized a provisional $4,997,300 tax expense in the Companys consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company also decreased its valuation allowance by the same $4,997,300 which caused the tax changes to have no effect on the statement of operations.
As the Company has generated net losses since inception, there is uncertainty regarding the Companys ability to realize deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established relating to the Companys net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance was based upon managements analysis of available information.

NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax loss due to non-deductible expenses, over/under accruals from the prior year, the change in the valuation allowance, and other timing differences. The Company will begin to release the valuation allowance when it is more likely than not the deferred tax asset will be realized.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:

NOTE 9 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to the balance sheet date through March 2, 2018 (the date the financial statements were available to be issued) for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Management has not identified any items requiring recognition or disclosure.
NOTE 10 MANAGEMENTS PLAN
Management recognizes the Company has experienced losses since inception and has negative working capital as of December 31, 2017. Management has taken several steps to help reverse the situation and improve financial operations moving forward. First, the Company has undertaken several cost saving initiatives that have led to reduced overhead expenses by streamlining operations and updating software to both better serve clients and increase in-house efficiencies. Secondly, management is consistently taking their printing needs to market to ensure they are receiving the most reduced costs in their printing needs. They are also converting as many publications to electronic format eliminating printing costs altogether which will increase gross profit margins. Lastly, management is in process of hiring a new Chief Executive Officer that will be focused on sales growth through innovative sales strategies and acquisition of new clients.
The Company is dependent on financing, which is subject to certain covenants, to support its operations. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2017. Gladstone Capital, a related party, has agreed to demand interest payments only to the extent the operating cash flows support the payment of interest.

NOTE 11 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), in February 2016. ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition by lessees of assets and liabilities that arise from all lease transactions, except for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. The lessee accounting model under ASU 2016-02 retains two types of leases: finance leases, which are to be accounted for in substantially the same manner as the existing accounting for capital leases, and operating leases, which are to be accounted for (both in the statement of activities and the statement of cash flows) in a manner consistent with existing accounting for operating leases. ASU 2016-02 also requires expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 applies to the Companys financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2020, with earlier implementation permitted. The Companys management has not determined the impact on its financial statements as a result of implementing ASU 2016-02.
