Item
7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
THE
FOLLOWING PRESENTATION OF OUR PLAN OF OPERATION OF SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED HEREIN.
RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS
On
November 6, 2023, the shareholders of the Company removed Philip Falcone and Warren Zenna as our directors and appointed Thomas
Amon as the sole member of our board of directors. Mr. Amon removed all our officers and was appointed as the Company’s
President, Secretary, Treasurer, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Our consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating
to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to
continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to
raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of stock or debt securities and further implement our business plan.
Years
Ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
General
and administrative expenses
General
and administrative expenses decreased to $54,063 for the year ended December 31, 2024, from $426,757 for the year ended December
31, 2023. The decrease was primarily because of the expenses necessary to process our SEC filings and transfer Sovryn to the Investors.
23
Professional
Fees
Professional
fees increased to $248,101 for the year ended December 31, 2024, from $140,434 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase
was primarily because of the professional fees necessary to prepare and audit our financial statements, file our Annual Report
on Form 10-K and the expenses for the transfer of Sovryn to the Investors that resulted in a $9,159,907 reduction in principal
on the senior secured notes on February 1, 2023.
Amortization
expense and interest expense
Total amortization expense and interest expense decreased to $2,498,385 for the year ended December 31,
2024, from $4,724,398for the year ended December 31, 2023. Amortization expense is derived from discounts recognized when we issued
debt and then amortized the discount over the terms of the debt. Most of our debt matured in 2023 and the discounts were fully
amortized in 2023. In 2024, we amortized all the remaining debt discounts.
Discontinued
Operations
Our
loss from discontinued operations was $Nil for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to a loss of $9,709 for the year ended
December 31, 2023. Effective February 1, 2023, we entered into an agreement with a lender in which we exchanged our ownership
of the assets associated with Sovryn’s broadcast television business in exchange for a $9,159,907 reduction in our obligation
for the senior secured notes. As a result, the revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities of Sovryn are included as discontinued
operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. The 2023 loss resulted from Sovryn’s operations for the month of January
2023.
24
Net
Loss
Net
loss decreased to $2,800,549 for the year ended December 31, 2024, from $5,301,298 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The
decrease was primarily the result of decreases in amortized interest expense and general and administrative expenses. The net
loss from continuing operations per basic and diluted share was $0.0017 and $0.0033, respectively, with basic and diluted
weighted averages shares outstanding of 1,603,095,243 for the respective periods. The net loss from discontinued operations
per basic and diluted share was $0.0000 and $0.0000, respectively, with basic and diluted weighted averages shares
outstanding of 1,603,095,243 for the respective periods.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Cash
and Working Capital
As
at December 31, 2024, we had $Nil in cash and a $20,386,295 working capital deficit, compared to cash of $Nil and working capital
deficit of $17,585,746 as at December 31, 2023. The increase in the working capital deficit primarily resulted from the transfer
of all Sovryn assets on February 1, 2023 according to the Partial Foreclosure Agreement with the lenders (Investors).
We will require additional capital to meet
our long- and short-term operating requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2024, our principal source of liquidity was our
cash that we obtained from funds provided by the Investors. Our principal use of cash was to fund operations. We expect that the
principal uses of cash in the future will be for continuing operations associated with rolling out our business plan and repayment
of notes payable that are not converted into our Common Stock or renegotiated.
Net
Cash Used in Continuing Operating Activities
We used $394,617 in cash from continuing operating activities for the year ended December 31 2024, compared
to cash used of $323,288 from continuing operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Net
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities
was $394,617 during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $363,710 of cash provided by financing activities during the
year ended December 31, 2023.
Net
Cash from Discontinued Operations
For
the year ended December 31, 2024, we used $Nil of cash in discontinued operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2023,
we used $40,422 of cash in discontinued operating activities which ceased on February 1, 2023, The decrease resulted from the
transfer of our ownership of Sovryn on February 1, 2023 according to the Partial Foreclosure Agreement with the Investors.
25
Discontinued
Operations
In
the fourth quarter of 2022, management at that time determined that Sovryn’s television broadcast business was not an efficient
use of our resources to develop and launch BCTV, our core business, and sought to exit Sovryn’s business and reduce Madison’s
senior debt it incurred in connection with acquiring Sovryn’s assets and creating its business. As a result, Sovryn is recognized
as a discontinued operation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The previous
year’s assets, liabilities and expenses have been similarly classified for comparative purposes. The following is a summary
of Sovryn for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

Going
Concern
The
independent auditors’ reports accompanying our December 31, 2024 and 2023 financial statements in this Annual Report contain
an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such consolidated financial
statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that we will realize our assets
and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

Transactions
with Related Parties
Effective January 1, 2022, we entered into
a management consulting agreement with GreenRock LLC, a company controlled by Mr. Falcone, for a period of one year ending December
31, 2022, pursuant to which we provided monthly remuneration of $35,000, plus expenses in connection with his duties, responsibilities
and performance as our chief executive officer. In February 2021, Sovryn entered into a consulting agreement with GreenRock LLC
to provide us with chief executive officer services. The agreements expired on December 31, 2022 and were not renewed. In the year
ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred fees to GreenRock LLC $Nil and $70,000 respectively.
On
February 1, 2023, we entered into the Partial Foreclosure Agreement with the Investors pursuant to which we transferred ownership
of our Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) licenses and other broadcast television assets to a third-party entity
controlled by the Investors. In consideration therefore, the Investors agreed to reduce the indebtedness under the Notes by $9,159,907.
On September 21, 2023, the Agent for the Investors delivered to us a notice that the Agent has exercised the Investors’
rights to vote the Pledged Interests, including the 100 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock, and to exercise the Investors’
rights, powers and privileges to pass certain resolutions and to amend our bylaws then in effect to, among other things, (i) remove
the Board of Directors and all Company officers, and (ii) reduce the number of the Board of Directors from three directors to
one director. As a result of the Agent sending such notice and exercising its rights to vote the Pledged Interests, the Change
of Control occurred.
On
November 6, 2023, the shareholders of the Company removed Philip Falcone and Warren Zenna as our directors and appointed Thomas
Amon as the sole member of our board of directors. Mr. Amon removed all our officers and appointed himself as the Company’s

We follow certain significant accounting
policies when preparing our consolidated financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in Note 3 of the
